Mr.. Cannon and the Memorial.

The strong plea of Representative Can
non in the House yesterday for afirma-
tive action on the pending Lincoln me-
mortal matter should reach the conscience
of those persons who. averse to accepting
that Judgment which has on its side the
weight of art and patriotic opinion and
sentiment. would defeat the loyal project
of erecting at the capital a memorial to
Abraham Lincoln. Mr.. Cannon has yield
ed his own opinion as to the site OF the
memorial. Like many others, he has sac
rificed his own preferences to the will
of the greater number in order that a
memorial may be erected. Without the
yielding of many individual preferences
the Lincoln memorial may continue in the
arena of debate for an indefinite period.
1t has already been too long a subject
of debate.
Mr.. Cannon'S argument for separation
of the questions of good roads and a Lin
coin memorial should and probably will
convert a good many men. who, express
ing their conviction of the Inappropriate
ness of a Greek temple" as a memorial
to Lincoln. favor the project of a Roman
road. The good roads proposition has
merit enough in itself to commend 1t to
sane Americans and the building of good
roads is making fairly satisfactory prog
ress. The good roads movement should
not lean for support on the Lincoln me-
mortal
The memorial as planned by the Lin
coin memorial commission. and which has
received the approval of the Senate,
should be carried promptly to the con-
clusion indicated by the logic OF the sit
uation.

Trying Out a Tariff Law.

prominent democrat expresses the
hope that Mr.. Wilson will call Congress
together as early as March 10. Let us,
says he. get the new tariff law on the
books and in operation by August 1. and
that will give the country fifteen months
in which to appraise It before passing on
it at the polls. A very good point, but
not all of the case.
The country voted on the Mckinley law
when it was only about a month old. and
condemned it. Mr.. Mckinley always in
sisted that trial of twelve months would
have saved the measure, insured the cleo
ton of a republican House in 1890, and
the reelection of Gen. Harrison in 1892.
AS he believed. the verdict was formed
more under the influence of the bitter
debate which had marked the measure s
passage through the House than from a
knowledge of what the law actually con-
tanned.
The German Wilson law came up for
Judgment at the polls within less than
ninety days after its passage. But 1t
would have been condemned had the time
been a year. 1t left Congress under q
cloud, and Mr.. Cleveland gave it a kick
at the White House. Time would have
been no help in such a case. The measure
carried from the day of its birth the dis
pleasure of the party responsible for it.
The Dingley law had trial OF more
than a year. and was approved. But ap-
prevail would have come at the end Of a
month. Business. indeed. began to pick
up while the measure was taking shape.
The bare promise of a revision OF the
tariff on lines frankly protective after a
period of deep depression had set the
wheels of industry to turning again: and
the army of the unemployed trooped back
to work. The White House and Con-
gress were in full agreement.
The Payne law had a trial of more than
before it had been. was hobbled from the
outset 1t had divided the responsible
party in Congress to the extent that the
best campaign material in use by the
democrats when the law came up before
the people was of republican prepare
ton. They could, and did. support their
denunciation of the law by quoting from
the deliverances OF many republican ora
tors and newspapers. At the polls the
law was bound to lose.
Time is an element, but a greater ele-
ment is party agreement If 1T can be
reached while the measure Is on the
stocks. If it slides into the water with
great acclaim and with reasonable
smoothness, everything subsequently
should go well. But If the launching Is
bungled. and some of the workmen ex-
press doubt about the seaworthiness of
the craft, everything may go wrong. Boss
Underwood should have an eye to the
framework, and impress upon his men
that the country expects every builder to
do his duty.

some fashion he must deal with both
Visitors to Albany note a harried look
and a little languor' in the governor. And
yet he has not completed the first month
Of his term.
Neither of these men is old Fifty is
characterized as 1.-The youth of old age.
Both. therefore. are young. Gov. Sulzer
is just turning fifty. and Gov. Wilson
turned the corner only a few years ago.
Both have always been hard workers
and Gov. Sulzer has been in political
office since he was twenty-five. Both,
therefore, are well broken to harness.
But neither is a man of robust ply
sique, and neither hitherto has been
taxed as now. The direction Of Prince
ton University was as nothing compared
with what at present rests on Gov. Will
sons shoulders. while the duties of
member of Congress are light and simple
compared with those of governor of a
great state. And New York Is the great
est state in the Union.
These men should spare themselves as
much as possible. For not only are they
heavily burdened with work. but each is
the hope Of his friends for the future.
The Wilsonites are thinking of second
term for their man as President. and the
Sulzerites of a second term for their man
as governor. with the presidency in the
background Should either break down.
therefore. In his first term. many calcula-
tons would be disarranged. and many dis
appointments inflicted. "All work and no

work and worry imposed on an official

Elevating Recreation on Sunday.

Editorial comment is being made In the
Boston press. and for that matter In the
press of New England, on the success OF
the experiment of opening the Boston
Museum of Fine Arts on Sunday. 1t Is
reported that large crowds of persons Of
the classes most In need of this enjoy
ment have been in attendance. The Sun
day opening of places of rational and
elevating enjoyment such as museums.
art galleries and libraries Is indicated.
Such places should be put to the fullest
practicable use.
In this direction Washington sets an
example to the rest of the country. but
still too many of the national exhibits Of
the capital are hidden behind locked
doors on Sunday. The Library of Con-
gress is open on Sundays and certain
legal holidays, the main reading room.

of prints and the music division being

the public school system Of the District
of Columbia. is open Sunday afternoons
and evenings. These two libraries are
sufficient for the needs of the Sunday
READING public, but the Sunday hours of
the Library of Congress might with ad-
| vantage be extended. The increase of
the cost of service would be infinitesimal
in relation to the value Of the plant. The
question of an extension of the Sunday
open hours of the Public Library of the
District of Columbia is not so important.

The Automobile.

The progress of the automobile in popu-
lar use has deprived it of aristocratic
claims. No longer is the ownership of a
car the sign of wealth: in fact. sometimes
1t is the opposite sign. Time was. and
very recently, when the ownership of an
automobile was linked with the owner
ship Of big town house, a country villa,
yacht and an annual trip to Europe. 1t
is reported now that some rich people are
becoming suspicious OF the distinction of
the car-the machine Is becoming so
absurdly democratic 1t is now re-
served for the rich only to buy a car of
many cylinders. many horsepower. high
polish and luxurious fittings. with the

The proposed Incorporation of the

criticism as has been made upon it has
