A Stab from the Enemy.

The majority OF the committee OF
the House OF Representatives on the
District of Columbia has nothing IN
common with this community or its
Interests. The people OF Washington
can expect nothing at its hands that is
not calculated to destroy 1r injure.
That this condition, long suspected,
actually exists, was proved yesterday
when the District OF Columbia appro-
priation bill was permitted to pass the
House with the section providing for
the conhscation of SI,sooooo of the Dis
trict's revenues by the Federal govern
ment intact.
The Herald has repeatedly called at
tention TO the fact that this provision
is a direct Reputation of the organic
act OF 1873 which established the half
and-haIf principle OF dividing the ex-
pense of maintaining the Nations Capt.
ial between the Federal government and
the District of Columbia
There are plenty of fair-minded
members of the House, not members
of the District committee and not
sworn enemies of the District. who
united, might have prevented this piece
OF unjust and senseless legislation, but
1t was not their business and they were
not "on the job" The section was
showed through in defiance of the views
of Representative Underwood, hader of
his party, who favors an unbiased in
quiry into the merits of the half-and-
half system before it is abrogated.
1t now becomes the duty of the SEN
ate to save the District from the vim
dictive assault of its foes intrenched
in places which should be occupied by
its friends. Every organization and
every individual interested in Wash.
ington the Capital and Washington the
city should appeal to the Senate for
simple justice.

As Mayor Issues Orders to Club
Ganssters." Two Fight Duel.
Wounding Woman Passing.

New York, Jan. l2.-Mayor Mitchell
today gave the police a free hand to
club gangsters and gunmen out of
business. He made the express reser-
vation, however. that they must not
take this liberty for license to club
respectable citizens
The rule OF reason in dealing with
New York crooks was abolished, and
the rule of club" took its place. The
mayor is resolved to stamp out the
lawlessness that eliminated last week
in the killing of an innocent pedestrian.
a court clerk.
Police Lieut.. George S. Wheeler was
suspended for neglect of duty in con-
nection with that shooting.
Just at the time when Mayor Mitchell
was issuing orders to the police to
club gangsters and gunmen out of
New York two East Side gun fighters
fought a revolver duel in front of
Monroe street this afternoon. wound
ing a woman who was passing along
the street at the time. Crowds in the

A Larger Navy Yard.

The report of the special board ap.
pointed by Secretary Daniels to in
spect the Washington Navy Yard,
which was transmitted to the Senate
yesterday, is evidently the work OF
men of sound business judgment and
thorough knowledge and keen appre.
citation of the navy's present and future
needs
After the frank admission that 'the
reserve of heavy ordnance possessed
by the navy is so small that it con-
stitutes a distinct limitation to the
operations of the feet" the report
takes up the question of a remedy.
The board finds it in the extension
of the navy yard and the erection OF
modern shops. 1t is unalterably op-
posed TO any effort to increase the
output of heavy ordnance by extend
ing the present unsuitable shops. No
one will dispute that in the long run
an addition. to the sixty-two acres at
present occupied by the navy yard and
modern buildings and facilities will
prove the more economical.
The advisibility of erecting a new
gun factory elsewhere than Washing
ton is discussed and the suggestion is
made that it is difficult TO obtain in
this city the skilled labor necessary
The high efficiency of the force en-
ployed at the navy yard here has al
ways been recognized and is the sub
ject OF comment in the present report
1t would be fair assumption that i,
would not be difficult to maintain this
high standard, even if it should prove
necessary to double the present force
of $500 employees during the next few
years.
Business Washington will certainly
indorse the boards recommendation
for larger navy yard, new buildings
and an increased force of employees.

We. went to Mr.. Phillips' house in

OF til" personal danger, he was really
10 appear upon that platform. 1 never
shal forget Mr.. Phillips appearance
as ne replied to us. We saw a mag
nihcent display of moral and physical
courage. He said that he would walk
out OF his from Ioor to Music Hall
alone and unattended, even though he
was sure his body would be brought
back.
I'VE told him that we would escort
MIN TO the hall every Sunday morning
or evening. We provided ourselves
with weapons. of which the slungshot
which you see now was one. In fact,
almost all the members of the vigil
lance committee carried a slungshot of
that kind. 1t was well we did. A
dangerous mob faced Mr.. Phillips two
or three times. That mob would sure
ly have trampled him to death n the
leaders had not seen us surrounding
Mr.. Phillips and occasionally got a
glimpse of the slungshots which were
attached to our wrists. Some of the
mob leaders professed their admiration
for the courage which Mr.. Phillips
showed when he stood without the
slightest trepidation on that platform,
preaching as an abolitionist would
preach, although he must have known
that pistol shot would have laid
him low.
1t was his courage and the pres
ence of his friends which at last SUBJ
dued the mob. and the final sermons
delivered by Mr.. Phillips were free
from any cause of apprehension. Do
you wonder that am fond Of exposing
this slungshot upon the walls Of my

PEOPLE TO PICK OUT
CONVENTION DELEGATES
Sherman Bill Provides Popular Elec-

Political GATHERINGS.

A bill prepared by Senator Sherman.
of Illinois. providing for the popular
election of delegates to national con-
ventions. the election OF national COM
mitteemen. and the regulation of ma
tional conventions. was introduced
yesterday by Senator Weeks.
Senator Sherman's bill provides that

gates and alternates, and specifies a
manner of election for States that have
no primary laws. Representation in
a national convention shall consist of
one delegate and one alternate for
every 10000 votes cast for each politi-
cal party in a State for President But

one delegate and one alternate for
each Congressional district in each
State.
Each political party that cast more
than $4,000 votes for President in a
State shall have two delegates and
two alternates at large for each Con-
gresham at large, and each political
party that cast fewer than $500 votes
for President in a State shall have
one delegate and one alternate at
large for each Congressman at large.
In the case of a Safe which has no
primary law. the national committees
shall incorporate In their calls for
nominating conventions a requirement
that all expressions of preference for
Presidential candidates and the selec-
tion of delegates and alternates shall
be made through a primary election
conducted by the party organization in
each State
Any political organization which
casts per cent of all the votes cast
for President and Vice President, by
petition signed by 5000 electors. shall
be deemed a national political party.

n ECENTLY I spent an hour or two
II in the library of Robert Potter.
~ whose home is in one of the sub
urbs of New York and who gratifies
taste for literature and art, having
abundant time and means for the cul-
tivation of these pleasures. Mr.. Pot
ter is a retired business man, who in
his younger days was very active both
as merchant and a banker in New
England.
While looking around the library 1
saw an ugly-looking weapon, which
was hung in a conspicuous place upon
the wall. said: This looks to me
like a slungshot. 1t has all the char
acteristics Of that deadly weapon"
1t was, in fact, a weapon of at
tack or defense. There was lump
of lead in one end and a flexible leather
handle extended from this end to a
sort of bracelet. by which the weapon
could be attached to the wrist.
1t seemed such a peculiar and out
of-the place thing to display upon the
walls of library that 1 ventured to
ask Mr.. Potter II there was not some
tradition or association which gave 1t
incidental value.
Yes" he replied, that little weap-
on had an association which value
very highly. 1 will tell you about 1t.
Theodore Parker-who in his day
was one of the most famous OF Ameri-
can clergymen-used to preach every
Sunday in the great music hall in Bos-
ton. He was a man after Wendell
Phillips own heart; at least SO far as
some of the great moral questions that
prevailed In the years prior to the civil
war were concerned.
After Theodore Parker's death, i
tbfplr ahonf nrOpOsed that
Wendell Phillips should be invited to
speak from the music hall platform
every Sunday morning or evening.
AT that time there, was very
ugly feeling In Boston. Of which Phil
lips and others. like William Lloyd
Garrison, were the cause. In fact.
this bitterness became SO vindictive
and violent that Phillips life was
threatened. and he received word that

the company among the employees and
add it to the wages.
There are objections to the profit
sharing system. All works very well
as long as there is a profit, but when
hard times come and there is loss,
this loss. of course, must be borne, not
by the cmploye, but by the employer
and unless the industry affected is so
well established that there viii be
profits practically all the time, the sys-
TEN is likely to break down.
1t is a well-known fact that con-
sinners profit sharing is success. The
Rochdale stores in England have proved
that individuals may cooperate sue
eessfully in the distribution of goods
and by thus eliminating the profits of
the retailer bring TO themselves Sub
srantiai benefits. Profit sharing in pro-
ductive enterprises has often been sue
cessful. The famous lens factory at
Jena, Germany, is one of the most sue
cessful of the profit sharing enterprises
of the world. The class of labor, Of
course, in this factory is very high and
this facilitates greatly the cooperation.
Manufacturers, it is reported, are
not looking with favor upon the profit
sharing plan of the Ford Company. 1t
is said that its effect upon other auto
mobile industries will be serious. As
to the minimum wage, it may be said
that an industry which cannot MAIN
tain living wage for its employees has
no right to exist. The minimum wage
of S. is not necessary and some in
dustries could not pay This amount, but
from the point of view of social JUS
tice there can be no doubt that a mini
mum wage should be established in our
industries.
