The r Street Problem Simply Solved

II seems almost incredible that an Of
ficial order should have been necessary
10 solve such a complication as that
which has just been adjusted on r street
in Georgetown. Through some freak OF
textual precision in the past the fire linn
it's extended to the middle of that street.
This was well enough as far as bound
ary for certain classes of building con-
struction was concerned, but it operated
most absurdly in another direction. in
asmuch as the fire limits of the city are
also the limits with reference to the speed
Of vehicles. Thus an automobile could
run at the rate Of twenty miles an hour
on the north side of the street without
penalty. but was permitted only twelve
miles an hour on the south side Of the
same thoroughfare. The police have not
been particularly bothered in the enforce
ment Of this rule. ridiculous though 1t
was, except when machines were run
along the middle Of the street. The
only possible Interpretation in equity then
was to rule with reference to the direc-
ton In which the machine was going. In
other words. machines going east could
only run twelve miles an hour. while ma
chimes going west might speed at twenty.
The sensible thing to do was to regard
the street as a single thoroughfare and
not al two. by placing It entirely within
the nre limits. This has been done, and
now the police in that precinct are no
longer required to display Solomonian
wisdom with reference to the legality OF
vehicle speed in r street. Thus one OF
tho Inconsistencies Of local geography is
removed. but the great one still remains
ia the retention Of the old "city limits"

The Profits Of Mail Frauds.

The chief post ONCE inspector In his
annual report states that during the
past fiscal year mail fraud promoters
were put out Of business by the govern
ment who had obtained approximately
S77, ,O0o, 600 from the public. This enor-
nous amount of loot from the credulous
and the unwary and the ignorant does

through various forms Of swindling by
mail Inspector Sharp notes that this
sum is only tho profit Of those who have
been caught and does not include those
who are still operating. There Is no way
TO know how vast are the pickings Of
these operators Of illegitimate schemes.
1t is gratifying to know that go were
indicted during the year on q large range
Of charges, and that during the same
period l96 were tried. Of whom 164 were
convicted. This large percentage Of con-
victions is an encouragement and at the
same time evidence Of the thoroughness
with which this work was done by the
governments representatives.
The widest possible publicity should be
given TO all the circumstances Of these

From the New Orleans TmeS-Democrat.
The founders of this government were
past masters in statecraft. AS the
various papers in the "Federalist'
show. the worAAng Of the various in
stitutions was reasoned out in advance
And surely, one would think, the men
who created the Senate, the Supreme
Court and the electoral college ought
to have foreseen the result of their
toll. But. as a matter Of fact, time has
played havoc with these autnoritati c
forecasts. Each of the unique institu-
tions has expanded, or shrunk, till 1,
bears a faint resemblance to the ideal
Of the founders. The Supreme Court
has grown greater and ~reater. though
tho first Chief Justice John jay re-
signed in 1895 and declined reappoint-
ment in 1901, on the ground that the
court could never have real weigh,
and dignity, because its organization
was defective. ine Senate is today, a
regards outward form. just what 1t was
In the beginning. Yet the direct cleo
tion of senators will soon alter the
spirit Of the upper house. The cleo
toral college was to choose the Presi-
dent of the United States and choose
him In such fashion as to preclude
the base methods that were thought te
follow pure democracy, as the shadow
follows the substance. But. alas. the
gulf between theory and practice Is
forever fixed. and the electoral college
quickly became a mere registrar OF
the popular choice.

The Stephenson Investigation.

time II seemed likely there would be full
agreement on the part of the investi-
eating committee. This now is threat

granted for consideration OF the subject.
II Is confessed that an enormous sum
OF money was used in Mr.. Stephenson's
behalf Over hundred thousand dollars
entered into the campaign which resulted
in his nomination and election. This is
two and half times more than the sal
ary Of a senator for a full term OF six

1T is true the kentucky situation OF last

The Price Of Butter.

A movement has been started for So
called boycott against the extortionate
butter prices which now prevail In this
part of the country. So high has the
price been run. under the influence, 1t has
been suspected. of the board at Elsin'
ILL.,, which is believed to control the rate.
that 1t has become prohibitive to a large
number of people. While there Is no
doubt a basis for some degree OF ad-
vance in the price of this commodity IN
winter. when there Is no pasturage, and
the cows are fed on stored food. 1t Is In
credible that there should be such a diff
ference In the cost Of butter production
as to cause almost a doubling OF the re-
tail price. In past years no such ad-
vance has ever been known. and through
out the country the farmers have for
some time been establishing silos and pre-
pairing themselves for uniform winter
feeding.
A satisfactory investigation has never
been conducted into tho operations OF
the Elgin board, which all retail dealers
in butter have reason to regard as fixing
the price for the entire country. 1t is a
well known phenomenon that every time
this board meets the butter price rises or
falls throughout the United Substantially

dence it is q phenomenon worth study.
