preamble of the act of July 9. 1876. retro
ceding that county to Virginia were In

correct.
So the invalidity of that act stands as
a living, important question to be solved,
as it can only be- by the judgment OF the
Supreme Court of the United States
President Taft, having judicial mind,
saw the propriety of having that lmpor-
tant question brought before that nign
tribunal His reference Of the question
to the Attorney General was manifestiy
and solely for an opinion as to the proper
procedure to be followed to attain the
desired end, but the Attorney General
ton for the new administration.
There is no question but that the issue
could be raised by direct action brought
by the Attorney General in the name OF
the United States.
Suppose that Congress should seek to
condemn that shore of the POTOMAC.
would not Virginia deny the jurisdiction
of the Congress?
Unauestionably, and in the litigation
that would follow the validity of the act
of July 8, 1916, would be involved. But
why have the public. who are interested
subjected to the delays of such proceed
ings. when the question can be determln-
ed by direct proceedings, as was con-
templated by President Taft?
We hear the cry that virginia would
never surrender foot of her sacred
SOIL" We answer that no true, patriotic
Virginian should be ashamed to follow In
the footsteps Of George washington, out
rather should they be the first and fore
most advocates OF his plan. which made
Virginia proud to be one of the two states
who under the Constitution, by cession
of its soil. brought about the establish
ment of the nations permanent seat Of
government here in the District OF CO.

w. W. Curry, former secretary of state
of Indiana, addressed the Indiana So
ciety of Washington on "Inaugurations
of My Time,'' at the meeting OF the
society held last night In the Brentano
building at 18th and F streets northwest
Mr. Curry, who is more than eighty years
old, recalled some interesting incidents
connected with the inaugurations of many
presidents of the United States. He ex-
htbited one of the original electoral bal
lots cast by the state of Indiana for Gar
field and Arthur, which came into his
possession while secretary of the state.
E. Taylor Chewing entertained the

cal selections. Orchestral selections were

PEARY AND BRIDGMAN SAIL.
To Represent United States at Geo
graphical Conference in Rome.

NEW YORK, March 15.-Rear Admiral
Robert e. Peary and Herbert D. Bridg-
man, president of the Arctic Club. sailed
today from Hoboken to attend the Interna-
tional Geographical Conferences in Rome
next month, as delegates from the United
States government.
Rear Admiral Peary predicted that some
day the United States government would
send an expedition to the arctic to see
IL use could be made OF the large tracts
of unexplored territory there. He would
not head such an expedition. he said, be-
cause he felt too old now to make any
more polar explorations.
He thought that Raould Amundsen, who
expects to explore the arctic in the Fran.
would take a "big chance" II he allowed
his ship to be frozen In the ice and
drift. 1t might remain frozen. he said,
for four or five years and drift any
where.

The Potomac Palisades Park.
10 the Editor Of The Star:

10 the Editor of The Star:
I read without much pleasure the ad-
dress Of Mr.. Casselman before the Cham
Der of Commerce Tuesday evening last
in advocacy Of a palisades park on the
Virginia side Of the Potomac. which ne
suggested could be acquired by condem-
nation proceedings. AS If 1t was mere
incidental comment on the situation, ne
asserted that there was no hope OF ever
recovering that portion of the District OF
Columbia which was ceded to Virginia
by the act of Congress approved July g..
1915.
He seems to have attached some I'M
portance to the recent so-called opinion
Of the Attorney General. who sidestepped
the whole question (which related to the
unconstitutionality of that act OF Con-
gress) by stating that the Congress couid
at any time remove the capital OF the
nation from Washington to any other
locality!
That such a declaration could find place
in an opinion asked for by the President
of the United States is conclusive evil
dence that the opinion was hastily drawn,
and without such careful examination
and study Of the question as its impor-
lance demanded.
Had the Attorney General read with
care paragraph II, section VIII, article l
of the Constitution, together with the
act of the Maryland legislature Decem-
Der 90, 1888, and of the state of Virginia
of December 3, 1889, which were followed
by the acts Of Congress approved July
I6. 1880. as amended by the act OF March
g. 1871. and then followed by the official
proclamation OF President washington
of March 80, 1901, declaring the legal
boundaries of the District OF Columbia,
jurisdiction over which was formally as
sumed by the Congress OF the United
States by an act approved February ~.
1901. he would have learned that by that
action the permanent seat of government
was established under the provisions of
the Constitution itself, and 1t became
thenceforward subject to- congressional
control only in accordance with the de-
mands for wise and proper municipal gov
eminent.
change the location Of the seat OF gov
eminent. Virginia had no power to legis-
| late In regard to any part OF the territory
within the established boundaries OF the
District Of Columbia; nor has Maryland
any power to legislate In respect or the
area she as a. state had ceded TO the
Congress OF the United States.
