Hospitalities for Mr.. Wilson.

And now North Carolina wants Mr..
Wilson for a summer resident. He may
have his pick of the houses In one of her
fancy, she will build according to his own
plans. She will strive to please.
This Is the third offer of the kind,
South Cardinals was the first and Vir-
ginia's the second. When Il lad Mr.. VIII
son lived in Columbia, where his father
filled pulpit, and he was born i'm Staun-
ton, where the elder Wilson had pre-
viously preached.
The first offers rest upon sentiment. 1t
is assumed-and safely, Of course-that
Mr.. Wilson cherishes memories OF old
times-of "the golden ago departed"-of
"the smiles, the tears Of boyhood's
years" All well ordered men do. And q
man has time for such indulgences even

ing came" with appeals for pap and other
sustenance, even a President of the
United States may soothe himself with
thoughts of long ago.
But North Carolina, being unable to
base her appeal on sentiment. bases ii
on salubriousnesS. She possesses the
climate that cheers and invigorates
and she wants Mr.. Wilson to benefit
from 1T. She considers-and very cor
rectly-that times are coming when

would have him, therefore. at such times
come to her and be refreshed in her
shade. She will engage to set him up
again, and make him good as new.
Why should not Mr.. Wilson accept all
three offers, and others IL they come?
Why not spend one vacation In Staunton,
another in Columbia. another in Ashe-
willie, and so on? This would not only
prevent jealousies. but insure him the
best Of entertainment. For all those
places. and others in the country, are
very hospitable; and any place would
exert itself as host in behalf OF the
President of the United States.
Mr. Wilson has read of those dear old
days-almost idyllic-when the school
master boarded around. The parents OF
his INDEPENDENTLY Of the bright ones
were happy to entertain him, and the
pupils themselves were happy while he
remained. Pie was served oftener at din
ner. Yellow-legged chickens appeared
oftener as the prize dish. And. as every
body knows, pie and chicken are great
producers and stimulators of gray matter
Let Mr.. Wilson. in a more eminent but
not more honorable or important sphere
revive that old custom. AS he is in such
great request, as so many states are
pressing for his company. he might solve
the matter happily for them and for
himself by boarding around when not on
duty here.

The Turkish Revolution.

y sudden change comes in the Balkan
Turkish situation, and revolution inspired
by the action of the Turkish grand coun-
Gil in agreeing to the REIMBURSEMENT of
Adrianople breaks out in Turkey. The
Ottoman empire invites expulsion from
Europe. Day before yesterday the Turk
ish government, driven to bay because of
the superior organization and prepared
ness of the allies, and because OF note
of the powers advising such action and
an ultimatum from the allies, relinquished
sovereignty over AdrianOple, the last
stronghold, or foothold, of the Turk in
Europe outside of the fortified line from
the Black sea to the Sea of Marmora. q
few miles west of the Bosphorus. Yes
terday the ministry resigned under COM
pulsion of the Young Turk party. the
commander of the Turkish forces on the
Chataldja lines was killed by an assassin
and the revolutionists, apparently in con-
troll of the situation, repudiate the terms
of peace accepted by the grand council.
declare for the retention of Adrianople
and the resumption of the war, and defy
the allies and the powers.
The allies are in possession of what was
Turkey in Europe, with the exception of
Adrianople and a strip of territory on the
west side of the Bosphorus. Adrianople
is invested and must fall. Relief by
Turkish forces sealed up behind the Cha
taldja Notifications. seems out Of the
question. The powers are committed to
the peace claims of the allies; their note
has been accepted and then rejected;
there is no responsible government at
Constantinople. but the pOpulace and it's
leaders insist on a resumption or contin-
uation of the war.
1t is Turkeys last stand in Europe.
The allies may not have the strength to
pierce or turn the Chataldja lines, but
the powers are involved. Without the as
sent of the major governments Of Europe
Turkey could not have remained there;
with the opposition of the powers she
must retire to Asia and the cross will
supplant the crescent at Constantinople.

son was invested by the Constitution in
Congress, the body chosen by the people
to act for all the people. producers and
consumers.
For better or for worse, therefore, tar
iff- making is with Congress. and must
remain with Congress. If more and bet
ter light is necessary to an improved ex-
ecution of the task by that body, let 1t be
provided But the power to act, either
with light or in darkness. Will still be

And so a better remedy than tarln
commission might be more business men
in Congress. Let more men OF business
light and leading be invested with power,
not to gather statistics, and compile them
and comment on them in a report to
Congress, but to legslate on statistics.
Information sufficient to construct a tariff

A National Hall.
from the New York Tribune.


The proposal to hold an inaugural re-
ception in the rOtunda of the Capitol,
which is about as ill equipped for such
a gathering as any large hall could be,
calls renewed attention to the lack OF
adequate facilities in Washington for in
door state ceremonies on large scale.
There is no place where an Inauguration
address can be satisfactorily delivered
in case of inclement weather, or where
an international conference can be suit
ably conducted. When President Nc
Kinley died the state funeral was held in
the rotunda of the Capitol. but it's size is
inadequate, it's lighting bad, and 1t is
entirely unadapted to such ceremonies.
The United States should have in Wash
ington q structure for important meet
ingS and ceremonies. 1t should be a
building with all the dignity of great
Roman basilica or Gothic church, large
enough to hold several thousand persons,
impressive enough for the most solemn
occasion. In addition to an auditorium
it might we'll contain rooms where an in
ternational conference could be held and
quarters where national guests could be
suitably lodged. There an Inauguration
address could be delivered, "a state re-
ception given. a national heros body lie
might be for Washington what 1.-THE
great hall of William Rufus is to Lon
don or the Pantheon is to Paris.
The grounds in the rear of the Capitol,
where the Grant monument Is being
erected, would have furnished suitable
site for such a building, which, indeed,
would be an appropriate monument to
one of the nations great men. There are
other available sites convenient to the
Capitol and there are other men whose
memory the country holds in honor, any
one of whom might be appropriately COM
memOrated by building at once grand
and useful. Such Il secular cathedral
which might be nail of fame as we'll as
temple for the ceremonial functions OF
the government, would serve a practical
utilitarian purpose and be stimulant of
patriotic feeling.

Shad.

One Of the indications that the sun is
mounting higher and that the winter
months are passing is the news that
seines are being hauled in the Potomac.
Tine fish know as much about the seasons
as the birds do. Soon will the shad be on
the table. smoking hot, all garlanded with
parsley or watercress and lemon. It's
fragrance will wake UP jaded appetites
and set the gastric juices flowing. Violets
and hyacinths. lilacs and cherry blossoms
may be some of the delights of spring,
but so is shad. Many spring poets owe
their sentiment to shad. Much spring
poetry, sweet in rhyme and tender in
thought. owes its passion and it's romance
TO digested shad. And as there is no
rose without its thorns SO is there no
shad without its bones

Congress Passes Loan Shark Bill.

The loan shark bill now goes to the
President for his approval, and in due
time will become a law, the House Of
Representatives yesterday having adopted
without opposition the conference report
on the bill. thus completing legislative
action on that measure. The bill as it
goes to the President provides that 1 per
cent a month shall be the highest rate
of interest chargeable in the District of
Columbia, and brings pawnbrokers within
the same provisions as money lenders on
notes, household furnishings and other
collateral.
The regulation prescribed by Congress
for that class of business which for years
has been popularity called the loan shark
business cannot fail to prove salutary
Grave abuses grew out of or crept into
this business. and the public demand for
its control and for the protection of bor-
rowers became insistent, and the men in
Congress who undertook the leadership
and who bore the brunt OF the fight for
the proper control of loan sharks have
as one of their rewards popular common
dation.
The final agreement Of the two branches
of Congress on the loan shark PROPOSE
ton encourages the belief that they can
come to favorable understanding on the
public utilities bill. There is no impor-
tant opposition either in the Senate or
the House to this measure; there is lack
of agreement only as to details, and GER
tainly Congress will not permit a differ
ence of opinion as to details. most of
them of trif1ing consequence. to stand
in the way of this much-needed legisla-
ton.

The Old-Time Simplicity.

Our ancestors were dignified.
They moved about with stately pride
And spoke in slow and measured tones.
Why not? They had no telephones.
They travelled forth in simple style;
Their horses plOdded mile by mile,
Through dusty roads or muddy lanes.
Why not? They had no railway trains.
Our ancestors were prim and slow.
A quiet pace they sought to go.
They summed the shock of a surprise
They couldn't well do otherwise.
