"Showering" the Executive.

Gov. Glynn Of New York Is in for a
shower" He is to be deluged with post
card requests by the residents Of Queens
county to appoint resident Of that coun-
ty as public service commissioner, and
it is predicted that some 10000 bits of
cardboard will flutter in through the
doors of the executive mansion at AL
bany within few days. The possibilities
of this form of petition by the residents Of
a big state like New York are tremen-
dous. Suppose the people of each of the
sixty-one counties decided that they want
ed to ask for the appointment of one of
their own neighbors to this or any other
vacant state Office 1t would make big bust
ness for the Post Office Department, but
1t would be hard on Gov. Glynn and his
staff at Albany. This post card cam
paign. it is said, has been adopted follow
ing an intimation sent out from Albany
that the governor preferred to receive no
formal petitions regarding this appoint
ment. The Queens county people may be
taking a long chance in post-carding the
appointing power after this hint.

sion by specific enactment. which 1t Is to
be hoped will not be undertaken, the
decision will stand until changed by the
commission itself.
It is undoubtedly desirable from the
viewpoint of the car riders that there
be as many through cars as possible on
all lines, and that the necessity of trans
ferring be reduced. Just what constitutes
the elimination of public need in this
respect must be left to the judgment OF
a responsible official body. The question
is determinable by means of figures show
ing the volume of trafflc. In this par
ticu!ar case there is an additional ele-
ment In the fact that the Calvert street
bridge across Rock creek is not viewed
ofiicially with much confidence. 1t should
have been replaced by a new, substan-
tial structure some seasons ago. While
waiting for an appropriation for this pur-
pose some care must be exercised to re-
duce the strains to which the old bridge
Is subjected. AS soon as a new bridge
has been built at that point the through
car service should be extended far beyond
the present point.

Washington's Birthday Observance.

Alexandria. so closely identified with
the life of George Washington. is con-
Quoting today the only organized cele-
bration of his birthday in this vicinity.
An elaborate program has been prepar-
ed. and. despite the unpropitious weather,
Is being carried out with enthusiasm.
Alexandria possesses many souvenirs Of
the first President and the Washington
tradition is strong there, with the re-
suit that his natal day is always rever-
emily recognized. Here. in the city which
ed. there is no longer any community OBJ
servance. though the patriotic societies
always scrupulously mark the occasion
appropriately. Congress panses for the
reading of Washingtons greatest. state
paper. his farewell address to the Ameri-
can people. delivered in 1856, a few
months before his retirement from the
presidency.
Some years ago this day was COM
memorated here at the capital with
parades and public services but that Gus
tom has passed. perhaps to be later re-
yived. No lapse of mere show or pageant
can. however, be regarded as a ,essening
Of the American love for Washington or
q failing in respect for his memory. He
Is still first in the hearts of his coun-
trymen." even II they have ceased in
to give formal. open. concentrated ex-
preston to the sentiment of gratitude for
his great services.

The Restful Unknown.

You're thankful for the knowledge that
you gather day by day.
You learn of strange connections 'mongst
the people far away;
You follow up the doings of the nations
far and near
AS they strive for the improvement of
our busy little sphere.
You hear the jingle of the gold. You
hear the trumpet blast
Amid assurances that Peace will reign
supreme at last
You grow somewhat apprehensive as you
watch the passing show
And feel that maybe there are things
'twere better not to know.
Sometimes your mind will drift away
from the incessant din
That goes to put on record who shall
lose and who shall win.
You think about the blossom and its
long mysterious sleep,
You think about the secrets hidden in
the ocean deep,
You think about the stars that swing
through the unfathomed sky;
You gaze and cease to wonder or to
question "how?' or "why?"
You drift far from the present with its
WEAKNESS and woe
And feel a little thankful for the things
you do not know.

In the Quay school, has never WINGED
under the appellation of boss. He ae-
cepts it smilingly. and proceeds to boss
some more. Mr.. Finn is a graduate OF
the same school, though with only
parochial reputation. Still he has done
well with limited opportunities. and there
can be no doubt that II he succeeds now
in charging his sphere of action he Will
do better. Mr.. Palmer. like Mr.. Finn,
has hitherto lacked elbow room. but mas
presided over small things with resoii-
ton, and aspires to control greater things.
If Mr.. Penrose wins 1t cannot be stated
at this time what national figure Will
enjoy the usufruct of his success. The
republican national boss for 1915 has not
vet been proclaimed But II Mr.. Finn wins.
Mr.. Roosevelt will get. the benefit, while
Mr.. Palmer's success-which, IN the CIR
cumstances. would be great thins loi
the democracy-would help SVEN 'ie
chorus for Mr.. Wilson.
Pennsylvania is not all business. inere
is humor in the state. This outcry aooue
and against bosses and bossism SHOWS
IL While eonfessing to his own poss-
shin Mr.. Penrose censu.es Mr.. Palmer
for bossism, and while denouncins MI.
Penrose as boss, Mr.. Palmer Is working
in the interests of Mr.. Wilson. who has
prasned and is exercising more power
than any President of recent years,
As for Mr.. Finn, who but humoris1
with a pleasant play on language and a
cbuck,e in his throat would take the
es,d apains+ bosses and boeeisn in behalf
of Mr.. Roosevelt? Pittsburgh is smoky
town. but there must be good cheer in
the community.

Snow Removal.

A fall of snow this morning. with in
dications of continued trouble of the
same sort, gives the District authori-
ties warning that there must be prompt
work in clearing the streets. I'm
fortunately all of the first snow has
not been removed and is now, as re-
suit of alternate thawing and freezing.
in state requiring double labor for
its disposition. An additional layer
will not be easy to remove on account
of the gIacier-like base that lies on
many of the streets. Now that it has
been discovered that the ordinary
STRENGTHENING appropriation can be
used for snow removal there should be
no official hesitation whenever the
skies sift down the white nuisance. 1t
is to be regarded the same as dirt and
attacked promptly and vigorously.

The Book Hungry.

From the Chicago Tribune.
The person who from childhood has
been accustomed to go to the public
library, or the nearest branch of 1t, and
to draw books free can have no concep-
ton what it means to be craving for
reading, to be book hungry. This pre-
cisely Is the condition. according to
the United States bureau of education.
OF millions of children in small villages
and on farms throughout the country.
The pupils in the grammar and even
the high schools in the rural districts
have great difficulty in supplementing
their text books with outside reading.
The libraries of most of the high schools
in the country, it is said, contain only a
hundred or SO standard volumes. The
boy gets no opportunity to acquaint
himself with the political social and
economic life of his day. This deficiency
of the country school the United States
bureau Of education now proposes to
supply by throwing open to the teachers
of the rural schools great mass OF
government publications that contain in
structive and interesting reading on
vital subjects. .."

Pennsylvania.

The leading issues in this years Penn
sylvania campaign will be the tariff and
bossism. and the leading figures Mr.. Pen
rose. Mr.. Palmer and Mr.. Finn. Mr..
Penrose and Mr.. Palmer are candidates
for the Senate. and Mr.. Finn ought to be.
While still q republican. before he saw
a light" he aspired to a seat in the Sem
ate. but found Mr.. Penrose unwilling to
assist him Now he is working unself-
ishiy FOR the cause of progressvism. and
under the direction Of Mr.. Roosevelt
All he asks Is that at the close of the
campaign his chief pronounce upon him
the benediction. We'll done, good and
faithful servant
Pennsylvania knows both issues and the
three men. She has often supported
protection-once casting half a million
majority for it. Had the campaign lasted
another week the vote might have been
unanimous. Both Mr.. Penrose and Mr..
Finn are protectionists, while Mr.. Palmer
faces the other way. He voted for the
Underwood revision of the tariff, and. II
that works, is willing to revise down
ward again. He favors tariff for
revenue only.
As for bossiem. all three men are under
charges. 1dr. Penrose. who was trained

The Benton Killing.

The official" statement that Benton.
the Englishrnan recently shot by order OIL
Cen Villa at the constitutionalist mead
quarters, was formally tried by court
martial on charge of attempting to Kill
Villa and fairly convicted of that Of
Tense, does not appeal to the credulity or
the American public. 1t is to be regarded
in the light of Villas well known feroc-
