Mr.. Bryan and Legislation.

Mr.. Bryan, it seems, undiscouraced by

making suggestions to his friends in the
House about legislation And that is right.
He has thought a good deal about the
leading issues now, or soon TO be, before
Congress, and his views are interesting.

Unjust Cash Payments.

The suggestion that the water consum-
ers should pay an Increased rate for
the service III order to meet the cost of
further meter installation Is akin to the
theory upon which Congress has been
proceeding for some years in requiring
the District to pay out of its current
revenues for large permanent works on
: virtually cash basis AS regards the
apkeep of the District municipality the
use of current revenues in large annual
.nstallments 10 pay for permanent i'm
provements is tantamount to an increase
In taxation. Every department of the
District government suffers through en-
ioyinG a smaller percentage of benefit
from the funds The result is that the
citizens derive less advantage from the
mum cipal equipment They get, in short.
less for their taxation than though the
permanent works were financed out of
special funds raised on the basis of long
term repayment.
TO exact larger revenue from the
water consumers would be only 1ustifable
IN case the actual cost of the service We're
less than the double payments for the
water use. No statistics of water de-
partment cost have vet been produced to
justify such an increase on that basis
All that remains thus far OF warrant for
the mulctlng of the water users in the
sum OF $4,000 annually is that the
money IS needed for meter installation

Gov. Foss on Prisons.
From the New York Times.


Gov Foss is working hard this hot
weather. His unfortunate interview, in
which he boosted that he had pardoned
more than twice as many convicts as his.
predecessor in office, because the reform
atory system Of his state was bad and a
gubernatorial Jail delivery seemed to him
preferable, has evoked some protest. 1t
was pointed out to him that letting the
jailbirds go might not reform them, and
that, in the unrefoFmed prisons, they
were at least kept from preying upon So
ciety. He was urged not to free the pris-
oners, but by all means to reform the
prisons The Massachusetts legislature
has therefore been treated to the an
nouncement of message from the gov
ernor." 1t is a very sensible document.
The old commonwealth is doing what it
did a hundred years ago, herding boys
and girls, young men and young women
with common drunkards and felons in it's
reformatories and prisons, the first Of
tenders with the hardened criminals. The
Massachusetts board of prison commits
sioners had resolved to draw it's pay and
to delegate the duties prescribed to it in
the matter of paroles to it's chairman.
Gov. Foss suggests that the full men,
bership of the board hear conscientiously
all pleas for parole, and that these be no
longer granted mechanically. He approves
the appropriation for the board and for
the reformatories and prisons condi-
ton that the existing penal system be
thoroughly revised.

Give the Heat Victims Air!

The thoughtlessness of humanity is
often illustrated in terms Of its sympathy
Witness the performance Of the bystand-
ers in the street when a person falls
under the influence of the heat. Scores
of people will try to gaze upon the in
terestng spectacle of q PROSTATE man or
woman. The unfortunate victim needs
nothing so much as plenty Of air, and
yet the sympathetic and curious onlook-
ers insist upon pushing inward until
the sufferer Is lying virtually in the bottom
of a human well. where no air can Cir
culate. On such an occasion one or two
people can do all that is necessary or
possible, in tanning the victim Of the
heat until the arrival of the ambulance.
Humanity demands at such a time that
everybody else should go about their
business or at least stand at decent
distance away.

to politics? With his occupation gone,
what would become of Othello?
Congress is fairly open to recommends
lions from all who take an interest in its
deliberations. The President makes his
formally. But many others are made
informally, and their authors remain un-
known. Some of the most important
acts have in part been shaped by private
communications from men writing with
full informa ton to their senators and
representatives. This is at once the
right and the duty of citizens who study
the political issues of the day and wish
for the best enactments of the highest
lawmaking body in The country.
Let Mr.. Bryan keep up his industry.
The mails are free. and his types are
his own. The tariff, the trusts, the rail-
roads, popular election of senators. the
war on Doodle in elections, the currency.
are all within his range, and all under
discussion. Now is the time for him to
speak. Many tongues are wagging and
many pens scratching. Within a year the
democracy must make it's record in Con-
gress, write its national platform. and
nominate it's national ticket Those, there
fore, with suggestions to make should
make them in good time. little delay,
or a little incertitude. might deprive
the party of valuable pointers.
