The decision of the District Supreme
Court in the case brought before 1t to test
the validity Of the statute requiring that
children entering the public schools in
the District shall be either vaccinated or
otherwise protected from smallpox lis in
line with public expectation. Judge An
derson holds that there is no question az
to the intent OF Congress in the premises,
and also that the board Of education has
merely acted in conformity with the law.
Unless this decision is reversed there is
no recourse for those who refuse to ac-
cept the practice Of vaccination save to
comply with it or to send their children,
TO other than the public schools, if they
can secure admission for them in private
institutions. Their only alternative IL 10

The determination of the business men
of washington to hold a celebration to
mark the completion of the Panama canal
shows that the capital Is alive to the i'm
portance of the event. But this only en-
phasizes the fact that the international
exposition that is to be held somewhere in
1915 should be held In the nations capt.
tai. The fight between New Orleans and
San Francisco has become SO bitter that
If either city is favored by Congress 1t
will seriously offend the partisans OF the
other. ii Washington is selected as the
Site both New Orleans and San Francis
co can join In the celebration with a feel
ing that this Is a national event In which
every state and city will have part, and
that all can center upon Washington.
There is every assurance that the world y
navies will be gathered in Hampton

water gateway to the nations capital,
only a few hours away. All the princi-
pal nations are certain to accept the In
vitation TO send their men-of-war TO this
naval review. This can be made one of
the most interesting and important fea-
lures Of the exposition itself IL the ex-
position is held in Washington. The
business men OF the capital, the congress

Governments Own Canal Program

The propriety OF a ceremonial celebra-
ton at the capital Of the United States
on the occasion OF the opening Of the
Panama canal for use Is so obvious that
it should require no urging on the part
Of representatives Of the local citizenship
TO cause Congress to take steps at this
session to insure an adequate and appro-
pirate marking of the occasion in this
manner. 1t would seem that the govern
ment would Of its own initiative and from
An inevitable recognition OF the impor-
t6nce OF the canals opening as q political
and commercial factor in the worlds af-
fairs proceed as a matter Of course to
provide here at the seat OF government a
striking commemorative program of proc
Iamation.
1t may perhaps be safely assumed that
this Will be done, and that Congress will
in ample season create a commission to
provide the most appropriate form OF
celebration here in Washington, with SUI.

lied and credible event. Nevertheless,

Of the enterprising efforts OF these con-
testants the far more significant feature
of tho Official celebration of the canals

An amendment has already been offered
in the Senate TO provide for a rendezvous
OF the vessels of all nations at Hampton
roads IN 1915 and the assemblage OF the
personal representatives Of the powers OF

should take the initiative in declaring its
