End Of the Giant Firecracker.

1t has been published that the fire.
works makers are thinking of combining
for the purpose Of combating the safe
and sane Fourth. They would have pa
triotism expressed by explosions, with
some blazes to keep the fire department
busy. They would have some changing
ambulance gongs. plenty of bandages and
a flood Of Hniment. II the fireworks max
ers have the idea that they can stop
the law and order Fourth 1t is a foolish
idea. They cannot stop tho clock OF
progress or set back tho world. The
frecracker jubilee is banned. The world
has enough trouble with people who
kindle kitchen fires with coal oil, play
with matches, thaw out dynamite and
toss cigarette stumps in waste baskets
without being burdened with persons who
set off giant crackers. Electric cars.
chauffeurs, grade crossings and deaf and
blind pedestrians make work enough for
the hospitals without requiring any help
from patriots who insist on lighting
things up with Greek fire. shooting Ro-
man candles into stable lofts and hold
ing pyrotechnic festivals on the back
porch.
If the fireworks makers insist on 60
ing back to the old fashioned Fourth, 1t
is plausible that tobacco dealers should
combine to restore the snuffbox, that
valiant blades should combine to revive
the duel code, that gentlemen should re-
sumo their lace ruffles. velvet coat collars.
stocks. brass buttons. long hose and
sword canes. and that the ladies should
cage themselves in hoops.

Tea. Coffee and Sugar.

Green tea is on the black list. Its
further importation is to be stopped. the
government tea board having determined
that being artificially colored 1t is in
furious to health. The discovery has been
tardy. but the dictum Of these experts
must be accepted. Perhaps some Of the
hard things that have been said about
the EMBELLISHMENTS Of tea have been
chargeable not 80 much to the plant as
to the color.
Some stupendous figures on the growth
Of the tea-drinking habit have recently
been printed. Tea il now included among
the necessities Of life. Yet in the SO.
called good old times OF two or three
centuries ago 1t was luxury and SO ex-
pensive that only princes and lords and
bishops and barons could afford to drink
such a precious beverage. Now anybody
and everybody can drink tea, and the
ordinary day laborer can even afford very
good tea. It is believed that the worlds
production OF tea is about 100, 900 600
pounds annually. China produces coo. co.,
600 pounds and exports 2O0, OO0. 900 pounds.
Japan produces $4,000. 900 pounds and ex-
ports 100000 pounds. the greater part
Of which is consumed in the United States.

sugar in It. and yet In the golden age,
which 50 many think must have been the
best and brightest and most joyous OF all
ages. sugar was q luxury that was kept
In stock mainly by apothecaries and sold
by the fractional part Of an ounce. prin-
cipally to allay the bitterness Of certain
medicines. The working man or the man
Of moderate means was more q stranger
to the sugar bowl than the day laborer
Of today is to the champagne bottle. Thus
do the luxuries Of one time become the
necessities Of another.
Thinking of tea and sugar naturally
suggests the thought Of coffee. In this
matter a recent report has it that "by
the operation Of the pure food statute the
public has learned that practically all the
coffee comes from Brazil. and that what
used to be known as Mocha or Java was
only a better grade of Rio"
1t is. perhaps, true that not for years
has the public believed that 1t is buying
Mocha coffee. Only the very rich and
the very gullible lave believed the Mocha
myth. Several hundred thousand pounds
Of Arabian coffee are brought to the
United States annually. and all Arabian
coffee is called Mocha. though Mocha is
the name Of town and 1t is said that no
coffee grows within q hundred miles OF
that place. About three and a half mil
lion pounds Of Java come into our ports
America uses annually about four hun
dred thousand tons Of coffee, nearly all of
it being the various grades of Rio and
most Of it coming from Brazil.

Cavalry Drill for Newsboys.

There may be some assertions from the
ranks Of the Washington newsboys. Those
missing from the daily or semi-daily mus
ter may be hiking westward to suppress
crafty, prowling, bloodthirsty, evil-eyed
redskins that are lurking or skulking
about the wild west in the neighborhood
of Omaha, Denver. Salt Lake City and
San Francisco. The military spirit and
the romantic impulse must throb in these
boys hearts today. for they were guests
of the 18th Cavalry at drill at Fort
Myer last night The troopers never had a
more intense gallery. It did the boys
good. 1t is something for them to re-
member, and will stand out In their busy
careers as a landmark by life's way. Per-
haps in that crowd Of neYsboys were
many who. when they get q few more
years, pounds and inches. may become
good soldiers Of the republic. So.
The first newtboy drill was held last
year. and the proposal is that it be made
an annual feature. 1t impresses upon
these boys strong lesson in patriotism,
and this lesson will not be lost upon a
class which in a few years will surely
exercise influence in the affairs Of the
country. Out of those swarms of news
boys will come statesmen, editors and
financiers. and there is q possibility that
even a clergyman may grow up from
among them.

South Side Purchase Bill.

Senator Hepburn has again introduced
the bill which would authorize the pur-
chase of ground adjacent to the Mall, and
of the South of the-Ayenue
for the accommodation of
public buildings for the use Of the govern
nent. A bill for this purpose was
passed by the Senate on April Is. 1908.
and on March 2, 1910 All the reasons
why the purchase contemplated by the
Hepburn bill should be made have been
gone over SO often that the Washington
public Is familiar with them, and Con-
9ress is supposed 10 be. Every argument
possible to be put forth against the
measure has been brought out, and the
logic Of the situation is that the land
between Missouri avenue and Pennsyl-
vania avenue, between Maine avenue and
Maryland avenue, and between B street
north and Pennsylvania avenue should be
restored to the Mall. The Hepburn sbill
also contemplates the acquisition by the
government of two blocks between Penn
Sylvania avenue and B street north, and
LIST and Sd streets, and one between b
street south and LIST and I'd streets.
The desirability Of taking over this
built-up land is generally admitted. and
that ultimately it will come into posses
sion Of the government is generally con-
ceded This operates as a check or a
stop upon the private improvement of
this section of the city. A beginning has
-heen made in the purchase Of the five
squares between l4th and 18th streets and
Pennsylvania avenue and street north.
The purchase Of the squares to the east
ward must come That part Of the city
for private uses is doomed.

In the Senate by Mr.. Hepburn will serve
to keep the question fresh, and this per
sistence will have its effect The trans
formation Of this part Of the city would
be one OF the big strokes toward making

Senator Martin.

The democrats of the Senate have
made an excellent choice for leader. APP
preaching the end of his third term-he
has served sixteen years continuously
Mr. Martin knows the three senatorial
RS thoroughly-the Rules, the Ropes and
the Resources. He is not talking man.
though able to talk when occasion re-
ouires He is not an emotional man,
though with a heart in his bosom. Per-
eonally he is much esteemed by all who
know him. Quick. keen, and indus
trious, he will be every minute on his
Job. beginning next Monday morning.
Objection to Mr.. Martin was based upon
m assertion that he is not In sympathy
with the "progressives' Of his party. He
is tagged by his opponents as ''reac-
tionary." He is under ban by them be-
cause he possesses the confidence Of the
business men of Virginia. He had the
temerity when a young lawyer to adj
wise some railroad corporations along with
other clients, and that act is still re-
membered against him.
But why should the respect felt for
Mr.. Martin by business men, in Virginia
and elsewhere, be accounted a disad-
vantage? Why should it not be &C
counted source of strength? Assurance
is given-repeatedly by Speaker Clark
that the business world has nothing to
fear from the democratic party. There is
no purpose to run amuck, either as to
the tariff, the trusts, or the railroads.
The square deal is to mark the party's
course in all things. All in contempla-
ton is the correction of inequalities
which have crept into the laws and their
administration through long lease of
power enjoyed by one party.
Now this program should bring Mr.
Martin to the front and develop his
full strength. Although lawyer, he
knows the business field, and the prin-
eipal actors in 1t. And they know him.
His advice to his party should be all
the more valuable for the knowledge he
possesses of business conditions and
needs, and the confidence he enjoys of
business men. The program Speaker
Clark announces should be entirely ac-
ceptable to Mr.. Martin. Both are dem
ocrats figuring on next year, though, I'M
like the Speaker, the Virginia senator has
no presidential boom on hand. He may
be expected to play straight, impersonal
politics from the start
True, 1t is stated that this honor will
help Mr.. Martin in his campaign for
reelection. He wants a fourth term but
Will have to fight for it. Still, all the
more will he have to walk straight dur
ing the next few months. The primary
to decide the question Of his successor
will be held this coming summer, and
should he slip in his minority leadership
in the Senate it might cost him dearly
at home. Otherwise, he should gain.
While crossing a stream it is not safe
to swap horses; and as the Virginia
democracy is now well mounted it may
decide to hold on to the blonde pony of

selves the question II Gov. Wilson can
be just the man they want in the White
House at Washington II he is really the
kind Of man Mr.. Bryan enjoys seeing In
the governors house at Trenton. Might
he not secure Mr.. Bryan's praise In the
higher place? And II he did could they
bestow their praise upon him there?
In the case Of Gov. Harmon. he Is being
injured in the west and south by praise
bestowed upon him In the east. particu-
larly In New York. Democrats in those
sections are asking themselves the ques-
ton If the Buckeye leader is the man
for them if he is really the man Wall
street wants. II Wall street were promi-
nent in putting him in the White House
might it not attempt to use him there?
Could he altogether free himself Of infiu-
ences which had been potent as agents in
his nomination and election?
And so 1t goes Despite the harmony
talk. and last years triumph for the
democracy. Mr.. Bryan remains unpala-
table to the east and Wall street to the
west and south. Give an eastern candi-
date Bryan name and you kill him.
Give a western or southern candidate a
Wall street name and you kill him.
The Wall street democrats, and those
who train with them in the neighboring
states of New Jersey and Connecticut,
were probably not surprised by Mr..
Bryan's cordial sentiments for Gov. Will
son. The latter had become a suspect by
his course toward some Of the machine
men who had helped to nominate and
elect him. They received q jar when he
defeated James Smith. jr., for the Senate,
and another when he became aggressive
with the legislature in behalf Of measures
which had been promised by him on the
stump when candidate. They had ex
pressed the opinion that something was
wrong with him. Now they will be con-
WINGED there is. They will tag him as q

tiers. and warn people against him.

Wilson and Harmon.

1t was thoughtful of Mr.. Bryan to ex-

had paid Gov. Wilson on his visit to New
Jersey were not In the nature of booming
him for the presidency. He understands
the situation thoroughly. That he ad-
mires the governor and applauds his
course so far in Office, he wants under

But even the Endorsement which Mr..
Bryan has given the spirit that Gov Will
