Tremendous Burden.
Local governments are a tremen-
dous burden. The policy of the past
has been to duplicate the departments
by recognizing both county and mu-
nicipal government covering the same
territory, thus providing as many po-
litical berths as possible. The day of
county government, except for wholly
rural communities, is about past. The
people have just discovered that the
dual system serves simply the pur-
pose of getting for the county crew
that which the city crew might mad
vertently overlook. Municipal corrup-
ton and waste, and from these. nat
urally, inefficiency, might be set down
rs the primary cause of the increasing
public sentiment in favor of a general
reform of elections and local govern
ments. There is every reason to be
lieve, Of course, that if the Democratic
/ Congress had not so successfully inau-
gurated a policy of retrenchment in
public expenditures and progressive
! ness in legislation, that these ques-
lions of local government would give
way in the public mind to broader, but
| not more important problems. The
Democratic party is taking such good
care of affairs at Washington that the
people are preparing to clean house
at home. The political leader who
failed to note the progress the people
have been making in the last few
years. towards a cleaner and nicer
system of home government, had bet
ter wake before the storm hits him
The people believe they have not beer
getting very close to their public of
fcers, that somewhere between tn
voter and the city official there is
third party. And just now they seen
to be looking for that party.
Bad And WastefuI.
Some cities may be better than ott
ers. but all city governments are con
parably bad and wasteful. This is nc
due so much to men as to systems
and, while material progress has bee
and is being made in many of the Leaf
ing cities, the urgency of the ne
] plan is made clear by the vigorou
trend of public opinion. The peopl
want their say on candidates and pu

Flags Adorned the Hall.

With walls concealed behind American
colors, the tables burdened with flow
ers and under the portrait of Abraham
Lincoln, and with many ladies looking
on from the galleries, over $50 veteran
officers Sons of Veterans and their guests
sat down to dinner in the great dining
saloon.
Rear Admiral George G. Remey, COM
mander of the District of Columbia Com
mandery, presided. The after-dinner
speakers were Senator Lafayette Young.
Representative Joseph Fl. Gaines of Wes.
virginia. former Commissioner FL. B. Il.
Mcfarland and Gen. Wood.
With the coming of coffee and cigars a
bugie call was sounded and the colors
were paraded around the tables and
saluted by the assembly, which had risen
10 its feet. The Star Spangled Ban
Ger was sung in chorus.
Responding to the toast WAS 1t Worth
Whiie?" Senator Young declared that a
civine hand was shaping the destinies of
the United States: that the deaths of
Lincoln and of Mckinley came at the
close of their splendid careers and that
new men. able to cope with new condi-
tons, were raised up in their stead to
aid in the solution of national problems.
and that every war in which the United
States has engaged brought to the
United States higher purpose at it's
close than was foreseen when the conflict
began

There is not enough ammunition held
in reserve by the United States to fight
one field engagement. declared Maj. Gen.
Leonard Wood, chief of staff of the army,
addressing the guests and members of
the District of Columbia Commandery OF
the Military Order of the Loyal Legion,
assembled at Rauscher's last night for
the twenty-ninth annual banquet.
Gen. Wood appealed for the support of
the order in backing efforts of the War
Department to create condition o. pre-
paredness for war. He outlined proposed
processes to mold the United States into
a nation of soldiers; told of attempts being
made to constitute the militia of the sew
eral states into an effective reserve ana
a unit of the army: was hopeful that the
American youth We're being made pro-
fcient in the use of firearms by recent
activities in extending inst uction in the
public schools. and described the efforts
OF the War Department to collect enough
equipment, arms and ammunition, for re-
serve purposes, to make the army an
efficient lighting force at an instant s
mot 4re.

He said that America has no friends.

Pointing the contrast with the decora-
lions of the banquet chamber, he said
that the Americao flag is a rarity on
Capitol Hill. He did not recall having
seen flag in the United States Senate.

Supreme Court room drew from the Con-
stitution the powers which made for the
progress of cur country. and the world,
and at once made possible and inevitable
your victories. Logically they hasten the
brotherhood of nations. the settlement by
law through courts rather than arms of
international differences and the axten-
sion to all men everywhere of the bless
ings of civil and religious liberty
What the Army Needs.
Gen Wood commented on recent legis-
lation by Congress in the interest of pre-
paredness for war. and said that the
present army is reasonably. good for fu-
ture work He spoke of the need of
about 500 army officers to be assigned to
the task of instructing the militia of the
various states in war craft, As to
build up reserve available for use in
war
ut is little short of idiotic to talk of
getting ready for war after it starts he
said.
The ocean used to be barrier. but is
now the greatest adjunct. in event of
war; to that nation which can control 1t.
Gen. Wood asserted. He saw no present
prospect of war, but from what has gone
before, realized that war sentiment might
spring up in a moment without warming,
and involve the United States in q great
conflict.
Public school instruction in the use Of
firearms, he hoped, would soon provide
hundreds of thousands of youths able to
shoot.
1T is ridiculous to teach boys how no:
to discharge one Of the greatest functions
of a.. man-how to serve his country.
This was in comment upon those who
would keep out OF the hands Of school
pupils histories OF wars, and who depre-
cate the teaching of boys to shoot
Regarding the cost OF armament, Gen.
Wood made the economic analysis that
the materials came out OF the earth and
not out Of the wealth of the people. and
that the cost Of construction goes back
| into the pockets Of the workers.
