Neither Gains; Neither Loses.

After all this frenzied fight over the change
of customs districts seems to have been a
tempest in a teapot. President Taft has de-
cided that he cannot complete the plan au-
thoriZed by congress before President Wilson is
ter to his successor. AS press dispa tches
from Washington have told this that
further congressional legislation is necessary to
put the plan into effect.
Whether not such action will be taken there
Is grave doubt because the treasury de-
partment has literally been stormed by congress
men protesting against the changes proposed by
the department. If change is made Newport
News and Norfolk will retain their collectors
and will be individual and separate ports now.
And neither loses anything, nor would either
have gained anything under the plan finally
adopted by the department and recommended to
the president--Newport News Press.

80 Custom House Change.

AS published in this paper on Saturday last
from our special correspondent in Washington,
President Taft will not undertake this late in
his administration to put into effect the system
of consolidation of the customs districts or the
country.
This is very wise in Mr.. Taft, who no doubt
was unwilling TO accept as final the recommen-
dations of that bureau whose representative
asked which had the most population Norfolk
or Newport News, and also biandly admitted
that he had never heard of Portsmouth. He
was further quoted by the Newport News Press
as having tactlessly declared that the Norfolk
people had tried to belittle Newport News, and
referred to it as "a little shlpyard and few
piers.
If that has been the range of vision that OBJ
tanned in the proposed consolidation scheme, and
from the plan devised for Virginia 1t so seems.
it was wise indeed in Mr.. Taft to pass the WHOLE
matter up for more serious consideration.
Norfolk and Newport News are both ports
doing business that warrants a coilectorship,
and deserve to be kept as separate ports, and
now that the danger of this half-baked system
has been avoided it is not likely that the present
status will be Observation-Disclosures Iedger-Dis-
patch.

THE LINGUISTIC AREA.

The Baltimore Sun processes to have discov-
cred the secret of Boston horticulture. 1t knows
why Boston hackman does not rob his fare by
but "appropriates more than his just emolument
by conducting his passenger to the hosiery by

not Bostonese at all, but Johnsonese.
The Svss gives credit for the discovery to
Kansas bookworm, who tells it that old Sam
Johnson's dictionaries are used in the Hub in
preference to The Century or Webster's. The
bookworm was pouring over one of these die
tionaries recently and knowing that they are
still used in Boston, he at once understood why
knowledge in Kansas City should be epistenology
in Boston and why a resident of the New England
city should lave his countenance in an aquema-
male, while other people wash their faces In a
basin.
The Sun then proceeds to clear up the meaning
of other Bostonese, or rather Johnsonese, words
by making selections from the immortal volume
of the Grub street photographer, who modestiy
described himself as "a writer of dictionaries

selections:
Network-Anything reticulated or decussated
at equal distances with interstices between the
intersections
Pension-An allowance made to any one with
out an equivalent. In England it is generally
understood to mean pay given to State hireling
for treason to his country.
Oats-A grain, which In England In generally
given to horses, but in Scotland supports the

Excise-A hateful tax levied upon communi-
ties and not adtudged by the common judges of
