A Disappointing Comet.

The comet has not made favorable
impression in Washington. Nearly every
body in the city with keen vision has seen
it, and it has required keen vision TO see
it. The general opinion, gathered NANNY
on the housetOps and at the upper WIN
dows. is that the comet as spectacle has
not fulfilled the promises made for 1t in the
advance notices. The terror or Its aspect
has been a disappointment AS celestial
show piece the eclipse OF the moon Mon
dav night was more convincing ana I'M
pressive than the comet Besides, II is
show that one does not have to wait
seventy-five years to see
The astronomical press agents rather
oyerdid the work of arousing pubic IN
terest in this comet. They wrote It's
praises too lavishly and made their prom
ises too glittering and magnificent. 1t was
tn no the greatest most stupendous eX-
annie of comet splendor that ever daz-
zled the blinking eyes of man. II was tor
be the most fiery mystery that ever
crossed the path of the earth. Nothing
like it had been seen for seventy-five
wears. and nothing like it could be seen
till ii should come again. And so forth.
Now the people of Washington may
draw their own conclusions. 1t is not be-
leyed that this comet has any higher
candlepower or speed or more distln-
euished and exalted comet qualities than
those comets which visited the neighbor-
hood of Washington in the sos, the 1Us
and the COS.
There is no disposition on the part OF
the citizens of Washington to hold this
comet responsible for the general dis
appointment or to lay any of the blame
on it's tail. Some disgruntled persons
have been heard to call the comet lake,
but the better sense of the community
repudiates this violent language ana
asks the comet to overlook this apparent
breach of hospitality and good taste. The
fame of this comet has suffered not be-
cause of any bad faith on it's own part,
bu; because of too great zeal and en-
thusiasm on the part of some of its OBJ
seryatory friends.

gether in extra session to revise the tar

At this time. We are told. the opponents
of Mr.. Cannon in his own party wanted
the incoming President to pledge assist
ance to their effort to put Mr. Cannon on
sufferance. so to say. His reelection to
the speakership was foregone conciu-
sion. The utmost his opponents could
hope To accomplish was 20 curtail his
powers in that office. In other words. UNI
able to secure a new Speaker. they
wanted new rules. which would make the
old Speaker much less influential than he
had been in the matter of legislation.
TO this overture Mr.. Taft. 1t is said,
responded with a smile. But not the
smile of approval He saw. al a glance,
that it was none of his business. He
vas charged with no part in organizing
he House for action. 1t was for the
House itself TO choose its Speaker and
adopt rules for his guidance. What
right had the President to use the in
Euence Of his Office for or against Mr..
Cannon?
Mr. Taft has since adhered to that
very sensible position. So-called Can
nonism has become much more sub
ject of controversy since the Payne law
was enacted. and the President has
been urged to take hand against the
Speaker. It has been the wish of a few
OF the insurgents that the door of the
Presidents Office be slammed in Mr.
Cannon's face. But the President has
continued logical. AS it was no
business OF his to help organize the
House. it has been no business OF his
since to treat with discourtesy the
leading House offic ial. He has taken the
other course: has given Mr.. Cannon
his confidence. and. so far. has had no
reason to regret doing so.
If the President OF the United States
could say to the House, This is my
man for Speaker. Elect him, and hold
him down to rules l approve, or I'll re-
fuse cooperation with YOU" he could
both write and execute laws, and, as
a breezy, popular phrase would express
it, put Congress ION the blink" Mr..
Taft is satisfied to remain at his end
of the Avenue, and finds plenty to do
there.

Height of Avenue Buildings.

Congress did the sensible thing in agree
ing to the conference report raising the
building height limit along the whole OF
the north side of Pennsylvania avenue
from 1st to 18th street. 1t would have
been bad judgment to enact into law the
Senate amendment excepting only one
square on the avenue from the operation
of the law restricting the height of build
ings TO 100 feet. AS the measure now
stands, awaiting the signature of the
President, buildings on the north side of
the avenue may be carried to height of
160 feet.
This is not too high for the ample
width of the Great Way. When the sky
line Of the whole north side of the Ave-
nue. shall have grown up approximately
to the height permitted by the bill and
the south side shall have been restored to
the Mall and lined with fine specimens Of
government buildings surrounded by beau
tiful grounds Pennsylvania avenue will
have no rival as street in this or any
other country.

AS New York is essential to democratic
success in 1912. why not nominate TINS
successful New Yorker for President?
1t has become quite the fashion for
New Workers to visit the south on BOOM
ing errands. Judge Parker launched his
boom in Georgia, where he had gone TO
address the state bar association. Lieut..
Gov. Chanler launched his boom IN
Georgia, where he had gone to see the
people and give them a chance to see
him. And now Mr.. Watson has in ehect
launched the Gaynor boom in his address
at Baton Rouge, whatever else may have
aiken him to the town.
1t is all right and proper. The south
should know as muci, as possible about
the men at a distance she is asked 10
consider for leadership. She will have no
presidential candidate of her own IN
1912 She should, and VII, have the
speakership if the democracy wins next
fall. and in Mr.. Underwood will nave
floor leader we'll acquainted with and
her interests That will satisfy her amhi-
ton in the division of national honors.
So that she has time and the taste now
for information about the democrats OF
the debatable territory who are consld-
cred of presidential size and seeking her
support.
The campaign is on. The Gaynor men
are none too early on their travels Har-
mon men and Marshall men are astir,
not to mention the Bryan men, who are
never still. In the coming two years the
south will find herself quite a belle and
entertaining a good deal of company.

that Mr.. Taggart got all he wanted. For
a leader who only a few weeks ago saw
his machine sent to the scrap pile he
showed great power. MIR. Taggart has
humor and abundant good nature, and
