it as a good omen.
Lord Crawford, former president Of the

pare for emergencies He has Travelled
widely in Africa and India acquainting
himself with the views and beliefs OF the
fanatical hordes Of these territories.
The coming OF Haney's comet will be
the signal for the agltators, who will
seize the opportunity TO stir UP the su-
perstitious natives, declaring the comet
a sign from Allah TO drive out or ex-
terminate the Christians. Lord Crawford
recommends that the governors of the
British states take prompt measures 70
combat this danger by having placards
with pictures spread broadcast, explain
ing the phenomenon, and forewarning
the masses against fear Of any personal
danger.
One Of the elements OF preservation

ROOSEVELT AS SPEAKER

So far as the Big STICK is con
cemed-and that IS pretty far-we
view with extreme satisfaction The
alluriug prospect Of a Speaker Roose-
welt. In fact, We are de-lighted-ed.
All Of this past complaint about
"czariSn" and "b0ssism" IN the
House has only made US very tired
The real. unyarnished Truth is, Con
gress has not been bossed enough.
What it needs, and has needed for
a long time, ia q Speaker who will
stand for no unnecessary talk-cspe-
cally of the back variety. Mr..
joseph q. Cannon may be all right
IN his way. but he hasn't the swat!
A genuine swatter is the only person
qualified for the Speakership-one
who does not mind calling a spade
a spade, and who rather enjoys call
ing an Anauias a short and ugly on
occasions.
Moreover. all these House commit
tees are rubbish. Why not have
Speaker who IL his own committees!
When we think Of the extreme con-
serYatism Of Mr.. Cannon on the one
hand. and the probable result-eetting
activities q Mr.. Roosevelt on the
other. we wonder why this Roosevelt
boom for Speaker vas not thought OF
sooner Imagine the great benefit
that would cone 10 tbs country at
large from a strenuous combination
Of both the majority and minority
opinion in one Speaker Of the House.
The Big Sticks platform calls vo-
ciferously for more ''czarism' in the
House and a bigger boss" than
ever before. The House to-day sim
ply IS too big for itS breeches-that
is what ais the House,
Let Us have a Speaker Roosevelt,
that Congress may be taught some
sense!

The Size of II.

From the Breatbitt County Ky News.
The editor or a newspaper IS often &C
cused Of leaving out certain Items OF
news purely because Of q dislike Of the
person 20 be mentioned, or from preju-
dice or another cause. This is all b0sh.
The editor has something Ike million
different things 90 think Of in connection
with the issue OF one paper. and II IS not
surprising If he misses an item occasion
ally, or sometimes forgets one which has
been called 10 his attention. Nine out Of
ten people you ask for news items will
tell YOU they can't think Of any But in
most cases they expect the editor 10
think If them an, and criticise him if he
fails in a single item. The best way is TO
give the editor credit for what he does
ind and mention. OF some things he finds
and doesn't mention.

Making the City Beautiful.

Commissioner Judson, in proposing a
law that will permit closer regulations
and more careful restrictions touching
the character Of buildings that may be
erected on some Of the great thorough
fares Of the Capital, has taken a step
in the right direction. and we are
pleased to know that his colleagues have
given his proposition their approval
It is to be deplored that such regula-
tons and restrictions were not provided
and imposed by law long years ago.
Washington to-day is a City Beautiful
It is beautiful because it was conceived
and planned by artistic and aesthetic
minds and laid cut on proper lines. and
because the government has added 10 its
beauty 10y the magnificent structures it
has erected and the attractive parks and
reservations it has created.
1t is beautiful in spite of hideous
architecture and grOtesque statues in
evidence in spots. and which constantly
offend the artistic eye and grieve the
aesthetic soul
It is high time, indeed, TO stop building
in a haphazard way on those streets
and avenues and those browning hills
that, in the very nature OF things, must
be utilized TO the enduring beauty and
slightly development Of the city as a
whole. The picture is marred to-day
sadly marred. Let it not be further
mared.
The principle involved in Mai Judson's
proposition is sound and right Its appl-
cation viii encounter difficulties. no
doubt. and many OF them. It may prove
impossible. in fact to apply it literally.
Il is quite conceivable that property
rights may continue In many instances
to abound TO the subordination Of artistic
and lofty aims But we believe that
public opinion and sentiment will be
behind the proposition in such force as
to make it effective and OF lasting benefit
The Washington Herald supports the
idea. and supports IT heartily.

What Virginia Might Do.

From he Baltimore Sun.
Virginia had no hesitancy or doubt in
selecting George Washington and Robert
+. Lee out Of all the vast company OF
her nIgstrious sons. No one worth con
s.iering has questioned her choice. If
those who have control OF Statuary Hall
do not choose 10 admit Lee 70 the United

most dignity. reserve the statue Of Lee
and leave a vacant pedestal that VIII

that at the same time viii give mute

The earth and al created things
That sprang nom out the CnsIIC deep
Were lowered meath Obiyions wings
And mlled once more to dreamless sleep
The universe dissolved in dew.
The Kissing stars we're all consumed,
Explosions rent the earth 10 two.
And rolling yapOTS flashed ard fum6i.
At once the flaming mists uprose
And III the pillsred vault With gold
While, writhing in their mortal throes.
The planets from their COURSES rolled.
The thUnders shook the universe
That toppIed from its Primal base.
And flaming whirlwinds, Ike a curse.
Pursued the falling worlds through space,
The inky curtain Of the night.
That darkling Death and Doom had spun.
Was spanged with a diamond light
From many coHlsating SUD.
The molten stars spIashed through the mist,
Explosive thulders rent the veil
OF rushing nebuae that Missed
Their hate above the cosric gale.
As DER some mighty hsaying sea
The hurricanes go sTging past.
Siiereal vapors rolling frye
Were shaken by each thunder blast.
The sun dissolved in deadeninE ash
That glowed then blactened al TIE core,
Then vanished with a jaIring crash
And time and seasons were 10 more.
A silence fell upon the dim.

And all the forms that once had been
Slept fOgmless in tbs empty vast.

His Beyness is bileless again.
His nerves are strong and true.
He IS shifting In the salted air.
And gazing out on the blue.
His morning hours are filed
With cruises over his land.
Which lies between the waters blue
And the underlying sand.
His afternoons are open dates,
No toll offends his mind,
He snaps the lack Of his thinking
tank,
And woes the air when kind.
The Boardwalk knows him wen,
And greets him with a smile.
As at 20 cents an hour. in chair
He reels of his mile by mile.
He has Travelled far and wide.
In tr5pic and snowb0und lands.
But he finds in the end
His greatest godsend
In Jerseys seab0und sands.

TODAY TO-DAY IN HISTORY
Birthday of the Father of Modern Science,
January %.

In London to-day 349 years ago was
born one of the most illustrious of all
philosophers. Sir Francis Bacon. OF whom
Pope said: Lord Bacon was the great
est genius that England, or perhaps any
other country, ever produced"
In early life Bacon manifested superior
powers and ardent love Of knowledge
His precocious intelligence was so great,
and his sentences SO remarkable that
Queen Elizabeth took pleasure In call
ing him her young lord keeper" At
the age Of thirteen he entered the Uni
versity Of Cambridge, which he quilted
In two years with a low opinion Of the
course Of study pursued there.
At an early age Bacon undertook the
study Of law, and was admitted TO the
bar when only twenty-one years Of age.
and two years afterward entered Parlia-
ment. His radical methods incurred the
enmity Of Elizabeth, and he lost his
friend and protector. and consequently
his political career was somewhat blight
ed. However. with the advent Of the
reign OF James I new opportunity
opened to Bacon, and by paying court TO
the King no made rapid progress. He
was knighted in 1903. Yet even Up to

The Roosevelt Dam.

The completion Of the Roosevelt dam
on the Salt River in Arizona will bring
into active production 2lGo15 acres of
land, and the power developed can pump
water sufficient 20 irrigate about S5.Gl1
acres more. The power at the dam is about
1850 horsepower. Seven miles below a
power plant will develop about $3.50 ad-
ditional horsepower; twenty miles far
Their down the valley 300 horsepower
additional will be generated, and az other
points more power will be produced, un-
til total Of $500 horsepower is reached.
What this means to an active, enterpr's-
ing community in q region where wood is
scarce and coal and oil are brought FROM
a great distance at large cost for trans
portation, can readily be seen. This
power IS created by what might be called
a by-prOduct OF the irrigation PROPOSE
ton, the water which usually goes 10
waste being utilized to create a most
valuable asset instead Of a loss, which
is usually the case IN irrigation plants.
