A Desirable Improvement.

The proposition to establish a mag
nifcent driveway between the Soldiers
Home Park and Rock Creek Park, as
contained in a bill introduced in the
Senate yesterday upon the initiative Of
the District Commissioners, is one that
is thoroughly practical and advisable
There is no reason why the two beauti-
full reservations should not be connect
ed by a boulevard, a condition which
docs not now exist except by circui-
tous and not altogether prepossessing
series of thoroughfares.
The acquisition of land necessary to
carry the scheme into effect would not
be an expensive undertaking at the pres
ent time, although postponement will in
evitably add to the cost. The section
of the city in which the improvement is
to be made is fast developing, and be-
fore long the driveway will become
impossible owing to the construction of
dwellings.
1t is 10 be hoped, therefore, that Con-
gress will promptly sec the wisdom Of
the Commissioners suggestion, and
will authorize the work.

BUSINESS AT KILLING PACE.
One Reason Why Government Con-
troll should Intervene.

From the Los Angeles TriLunc.
Like z. H. Hartman, the great railroad
builder and financier. whose shoes he
came nearest Of any man to filling, Edwin
Hawley collapsed under the strain. When
he should have been in the zenith OF his
powers, his vital forces were burned out
at the age of sixty-one. But he left
20. 900 miles of road with n capitalization
Of 800, 900, and a large private for
tune to his credit
Whether the modern pace pays, as ex-
emplied in this great creative man. is
matter for individual judgment. But
il can hardly be widely felt that condi-
tions which give unrestrained play to a
consuming ambition like Hawley's are
healthy. 1t isn't necessary for any man
or small coterie of men to bear on their
shoulders all the burdens in the rail-
road world, or any other. 1t isn't well
that men should giut themselves with
power and wealth, for II is concentrating
the country's vitality in a high-strung
center. that may. like Hawley's heart,
have to bear crushing strains with the
same fate as his.
The cry of Judge Gary, Of the steel
trust, and of George w. Perkins for gov
ernment supervision Of the monsters they
have helped to create shows how the
strain is telling on the men who have
harnessed great forces without reckoning
on their ability to control EN-.

The Power of Public Opinion.

The fact that Folke Z. Brandt has
been granted a new trial in New York,
his sentence Of thirty years. to the peni-
Tertiary for burglary having been set
aside by the judge who imposed it. in
dicates the power of public opinion.
Brandts case is practically unique
in the annals OF criminal law. He was
convicted without a trial upon an al
legged confession, the prina facie evi-
dence in the case indicating an anxiety
to hasten him into the walls of a prison
without regard to justice or facts. From
the detective who is said TO have pre-
pared the false allegations against him
to the governor of the State, who an
nounced that the case had been closed,
and including even the attorneys who
threatened the newspapers with prosecu-
ton if they published anything about
the matter, the entire proceeding has
5een accompanied by mystery and ap-
parent injustice. 1t is the latter phase
hat has appealed to the public and has
resulted in action that will determine
he truth.
If II shall be shown that man can
be railroadcd into prison without due
warrant of law, the .reopening of the
case will prevent such trayesty upon
Justice in the future.

A Standard Golf Ball,

All lovers of the ancient and honor
able game will be interested in the
animated discussion which is occurring
in the British sporting journals regard
ing the necessity of standardizing the
golf ball The matter has now reached
a point where the ST. Andrews Club,
the arbiter of golf, will give it due
consideration at its April meeting, and
If an affirmative decision is reached, the
United States Golf Association will be
asked to take similar action.
The principal contention is that under
present conditions two opponents do not
meet each other under equal chances.
It is claimed that all golf balls should
have the same weight and proportions
-rfot, of course, that only one ball
should be manufactured, for this would
result in a monopoly which ,could not
be tolerated. The main objection seems
to be that the newer type of ball is
driven too great distance and thus
dctracts from the skill Of the game.
Consequently there IS 2 suggestion. that
only golf balls which viii float in water
. shall be used.
The logic Of the discussion is with

STATE AID AND SUPERVISION.
Public Money Received should Garry
knowledge and Control.

From the Boston Christian Saenoe Monitor.
Practical prudence and pedagogical
principle combine to make sensible the
proposal OF the Massachusetts State
board OF education that IL the State is
to use the peoples money for partial
support of educational institutions not
formally created or managed by the
Commonwealth. then the price Of such
aid must be admission of the State TO
an advisory and supervisory role. at
least to the extent of knowing that
moneys appropriated are well spent and
70 the extent OF cO-ordinatlnE the seTy-
ice of these institutions with that OF
schools wholly controlled by the State.
The tactical advantage to institutions
receiving this pecuniary aid OF such
added State supervision and partial con-
troll must be obvious to their oficials
and supporters. 1t is the surest way TO
make permanent whatever income the
State now provides and to increase il as
the years go by; and II also will check,
for a time at least, any agitation to
have the State create for itself similar
schools supported wholly by taxation
and a part of a unified system OF demo-
cratic education extending to the high
monwealth now lacks. Here emerges a
phase OF the problem OF education in
New England which is certain to become
more. rather than less, acute as time
goes on. Everything that is done by
the privately. endowed colleges and uni
versities to make It less expensive and
easier for pupils to matricuIate and TO
graduate. or that aligns the institution
With reciprocal aid to the community,
State. and section in solving specific
economic and political problems. will
help fend of that day when the ulti-
mate question must be faced.
Tradition. habit, and sincere conviction
for some time will hold Massachusetts,
aloof from projects in the way Of State
control of education that younger Com
monwealths take 10 as naturally as
smoke seeks the zenith. On the other
hand, new racial and religious elements
in the population are modifying sectional
outlooks and making the role of proph-
ecy unsafe. Competition of other Com
monwealths farther West for teachers
of eminence and for pupils is felt al
ready Logic demands a complete and
not a truncated system Of popular edu-
cation. Some day logic may triumph
over sentiment.

President Finley's Wise Advice.

President w. w. Finley, of the
Southern Railway, who is also chair
man of the executive committee of the
American Association for Highway I'M
provement, has issued an appeal to
farmers to improve the roads which
rsdiate from market towns or shipping
centers
Mr.. Finley does not minimize the
importance of trunk line highways,
which attract automobile tourists, but
he says that the greatest good for the
greatest number can be secured by
first developing the roads which lead
from the farm to the point where prod
uce can be carried to the markets. Not
only will the farmer be materially bene-
fted by this improvement, but the
trade of retail dealers will be enlarged,
the work of the rural mail carriers
facilitated, and the limits of circulation
of the newspapers be extended.
With his usual keen business sense,
Mr.. Finley has approached an important
subject from the right angle. If the
minor roads are improved, the construc-
ton of trunk line highways will follow
as a matter of necessity, and thus a
complete network of excellent thorough
fares obtained

Masculine Attire.

The nine hundred tailors who arc as
scmbled in annual convention in New
York city should be given the recogni-
ion which their Importance deserves.
It is true that they arc not determin-
.ng the fate of nations, nor are they
even deciding the outcome of the ap-
preaching campaign. None the less,
being the arbiters of masculine attire,
hey occupy a position in society which
IS by no means TO be minimized.
If, for instance, they direct that tux
edo suits shall in the future be made
If gray, so as to distinguish the guests
from the walters, it means that the
clothes which have been tendcrly cared
for during this winter, in the hope that
they will last another season, might as
well be consigned to the secondhand
dealer. If, again, they command that
all suits shall be made to fit as tight as
4 drum, the men OF large and portly
figures might as we'll emigratc 10 for
eign chimes or else be resigned to en-
durc the jests of those whom nature
has framed upon lank and skinny lines.
Or if they resolve that no padding shall
appear upon the shoulders, what IS to
become of the youths who hitherto COM
manded admiration because of their ap-
parently splendid physiques:
There is some consolation, it must be
admitted, i'll the fact that men are not
altogether slaves to fashion. Some of
them, of course, go through the world
in the proud CONSCIOUSNESS that they
are molds of form, and the mandate
of the tailor is their law Beyond the
observance OF a few conventionalities,
however, the great mass of mankind
preserves a delightful independence in
he matter of dress and accepts with in
difference the decisions which are so
emphatically announced. Were it not
for this, and if we had to agree to the
assertion that no man is a gentleman
unless he possesses tfirty-five suits OF
clothes, VIC might as well quit the weary
world and seek refuge in that bourne
where the disembodied spirits wear no
clothes at all.

the advocates of standard ball, but
it is extremely doubtful whether any
rule will be adopted in England or in
this country which win sustain them.
Much of the pleasure in the game is in
experimenting with the latest models,
and it would be shame to deprive
the grill-room frequenters of their ear
nest and always instructive debates as
to the advantages of the various types,
American golfers may, therefore. allow
their British cousins to struggle over
the vexatious question, while they pre-
pare to enjoy the coming season under
the same conditions which have made
the game so delightful in the past.

BOYS BRIGADE
SCORES A POINT
Recent Election of Two vestrymen
Declared Void by Bishop Al
fred Harding's Counsel.

A decided victory for the Boys Brigade
faction in the dispute at Christ Protest.
ant Episcopal Church was scored yes
terday afternoon, when James f. Hutch
inson. one OF the vestrymen siding with
the boys. received a letter from Bishop
Alfred Harding. declaring the recent
election OF N. T. Hyson and John Petar
as members Of the yestry to be void.
Hynson and Petar are opposed to the
Boys Bridage
Al the conferences on the matter last
Friday night Bishop Harding referred the
question OF the legality Of the election
TO Attorney c. H. Stanley, OF Laurel,
Nd. chancellor Of the Episcopal Diocese
Of Washington. who rendered the opin-
ion which was submitted to Mr.. Hutchin-
son yesterday.
The dispute over the election arose at
recent meeting Of the vestry, when
Hynson and Petar were elected vestry-
men by means Of Rev. Arthur S. Johns.
rector OF the church. voting twice-once
TO exercise his privilege of voting, and
the second time TO exercise the privilege
OF the presiding oficer in breaking a
tie.
The ousting OF the two Illegally elected
vestrymen from the board will leave the
Boys Brigade faction IN power, with
Two vacancies on the NeSlTy. AT tne
Easter election the Boys Brigade faction
expects to put in power a vestry which
will favor the restoration of the company
TO its former quarters in the parish
halI.
Mai. Frederick NJ. Kerby, former COM
mandant OF the company, who was dis
missed by order OF the vestry. held a
conference last night with James s,
Bennett. OF New York. judge advocate
general Of the United Boys Brigade OF
America. Mr.. Bennett said the central
organization would continue to recognizs
the Christ Church company as long as
Il kept intact. He said that as the trou'
BILE was purely a local one the central
organization would take no action in the
matter. He expressed the belief that the
dispute would terminate following the
Easter election, and that the boys would
again be given permission to use thG
parish hall.
At present the boys are drilling In
Friendship House. Fifth street, and Ntr'
ginIa avenue southeast. Because Of thf
rapid increase in numbers, IL has beer
found necessary TO form two companies
Company A and Company +. There ar'
10 boys in the two companies.
