From the India ma polls Star.

A New York chauffeur, seventeen years
old, convicted of manslaughter in the
second degree while on a joy ride, has
been sentenced to spend fifteen years ir
the Elmira reformatory. The judge re.
marked that the next joy rider brought
before him would be sentenced to Sing
Sing, adding. You are only seventeen
years old, and it seems to me that the
state of New York is guilty itself in per-
hitting such a youth as you to drive
an automobile on our public thorough
fares" The judge was right both in in
flicting the penalty and in his comment
on the recklessness that permits children
to handle these powerful machines. II
is not until adequate punishment is meas
ured out to careless automobile drivers
that their disregard for public rights vii
be checked. At the same time II Is
worth while to remember that not al
the many accidents by any means occur
when young drivers are in charge. There
is the Anderson case for example, report
ed yesterday, where a business man OF
mature years turned to look back while
driving his machine and at that moment
ran down and killed a. child.

Summer at Last.

The lapse of twenty-four hours and
more without rainfall caused yesterday to
be memorable in local annals. The false
alarms of clearing skies followed swiftly
by the reclouding of the western horizon
have lately been so frequent that the
public settled itself down in sodden de-
spair, not venturing 10 hope save for an
ultimate swinging of the climatic PEN
dulum. Even now there is no safety in
prediction or in preparations for outdoor
activities. 1t will take several days of
uninterruptedly clear skies TO restore
confidence. No one will object to an oc-
casional thunderstorm at the close of a
hot day. Tnat is part of the summer at
mOsphere. II has it's good uses even IL il
does prevent ball game now and then
But the everlasting drizzle and unremit-
ting showers and daily darkening of the
skies with leaden clouds are more than
human nature can stand uncomplainingIy
for any length sof time. Even though the
return of sunshine at this season of the
year means the onrush of summer il will
be welcomed.

The Potomac.

Had the old Long bridge still crossed
the river at this point the freshets which
are happily now sabsiding would have
caused Washington great anxiety. In the
old days. with the bridge-dam stretching
across the stream at point of compare
tive shallowness. such volume of water
as that which has flowed down the Poto-
mac within the past week must surely
have been choked. 1t only required a
few stray logs and other debris catching
upon the piers of the old bridge to cause
the water to rise dangerously. The grad
ual dumping of stone around the weak
piers had filed up the channel until it's
capacity was reduced by nearly 80 per
cent. The danger. of course. was greatest
In the spring when the ice came down the
river, and many a time Washington has
prayed that the bridge might be entirely
destroyed by the pressure of ice and water

relief from this perennial menace. The
spectacle of boats on Pennsylvania ave-
nue. is still wildly recalled by many cit
liens II is true that the destruction of the
old bridge would have deprived Washington

casional likeness to Venice. but few citi-

The Trolley and the Capital.

A broken trolley wire on the Cabin John
line yesterday not only caused long
blockade of the service at time of
heavy trafic, but MORALLY burned a mo-
torman who undertook to manage the re-
fractory metal. Ii is fortunate that the
mishap was not more disastrous. For
unexpected deviltry there is nothing to
exceed a writhing. twisting trolley wire
that has been broken and has crossed
other metallic lines and is charged with
q deadly current
This accident illustrates what Washing
ton has escaped by excluding the over
head trolley system from the urban
limits and insisting upon the underground
conduit method of transmitting the cleo
trio current for traction purposes. In
this respect Washington is curiously
unique among American cities. New York
alone approaching it in point of freedom
from the overhead wire menace. Few
citizens today realize by what narrow

Congratulations to the administration
and to Mr.. Knox on the latter's decision
not to permit further use of his name in
the Pennsylvania campaign.
First, to the administration, because
had Mr. Knox retired from the State De-
partment the administrations enemies
would have interpreted the step to its
disadvantage. We should have been told
that the Taft forces were disintegra ting,
and that in another year all would be
over with the outfit. MIR. Knox would
have been quoted as anti-Taft and as
certain to be followed by other members
of the cabinet soon preteXts could
be arranged. With failure thus confessed
by the premier, what should not the
country expect next? The tariff itself
might have been eclipsed as the para
mount issue in the congressional cam
paigns.
Second, to Mr. Knox. because had he
left Washington to take up duties at
Harrisburg he would have repented bit
terly Of the exchange. AS Governor of
Pennsylvania he would have had to play
a politicians part with the aid of poll
ticians. and in an environment which has
taxed the patience and wrecked the repu-
tatiOn of more than one good man.
If it is true anywhere else outside Of
New York that politics is hades, Penn
sylvania has claims to consideration in
the designation of the locality The pres
ent generation knows all about Mr.. Quay
But let us not forget that Mr.. Quay,
bad as he was, did not originate what is
known as Pennsylvania politics. He
learned from others. and inherited his

born.
out of his element at Harrisburg as re-
spects taste. but also as respects knowl-
edge. He is not product of Pennsyl-
vania politics. He does not know the
game at all. Had the Pennsylvania poll
from the state for Attorney General at
the time Mr.. Knox was chosen they
would never have thought of him. Mr.
Mckinley went over all their heads. They
had to acquiesce in the selection, and
subsequently under pressure of a similar
kind had to accept MIR. Knox as senator
But he was not of them then, and is not
of them now. Imagine such a man be-
deviled in office by the old Quay machine,
or successful in an honest effort to
destroy it.
Mr.. Knox does well to keep out of the
commotion. Let Mr.. Penrose and Col
Guffy fight their sham battle in their
own way. and according to rules both
understand. The State Department is a
far better field for labor for first-class
lawyer and mar of broad and patriotic
aspirations.

margin and with what difficulty this i'm
munity was gained. The most persistent
efforts were made by advocates of the
overhead system to foist upon the capital
a verita BILE gridiron of deadly wires. The
city needed rapid transit. Its best serv-
ice was that given by few cables. while
on one of it's most important lines the
cars were drawn by horses. owing to the
impossibility of establishing the cable
The fight for the adoption of the
underground conduit method of transmit
ting the electric current in Washington
was watched anxiously by the overhead
trolley interests. There is reason to be-
lieve that if that fight had been lost
Washington would have been invaded by
alien capitalists intent upon occupying
every other street with the cheap and
nasty overhead lines, squeezing the pub
lie out of the last possible dollar of div
dends and giving in return a minimum of
service. without the slightest pretense of
local pride or consideration
II is we'll from time to time to recall
the circumstances of the long campaign
against the trolley. to emphasize the fact
that in the upbuilding of the capital the

prevailed that anything was good enough
for Washington. Congressional neglect
and indifference contributed to this inn
preston. which prevailed even after the
assumption by the federal government
with the enactment of the organic act of
an equitable share of the cost of capital
maintenance. Now the principle that
generally prevails in the consideration of
the District is that the best is none
too good for the federal city. Despite
lapses from this standard, and frequent
failures on the part of Congress to live
up to the letter and the spirit of the
organic act and to take advantage of
opportunities for capital making and to
supply the needs of the government and
the District in accordance with the true
capital requirements, the day seems for
ever past when the national-local legis-
lature would consider a plan comparable
with that of placing Washington in the
grip of the overhead trolley octopus.
