II is almost certain that if Serene
Payne had been able to pass through
the House the bill that represented
his own idea of what the Republican
party owed to the country in 1909.
and if the Senate had not insisted on
intruding the very different views of
the extreme New England wing, the
party would have been subjected TO
no serious revolt, the defeat of 1910
would not have been suffered, and
the Republican party might now be
in control of the nation.
Mr.. Payne was a sincere and hard
working public man; he earned
friends. and he deserved them. 1t
was one of the great satisfactiens
of his career that he survived the
party disasters of both 1910 and
1912. He will be sincerely mOurned
by great number of friends whom
his long career earned and deserved.

CAR SERVICE ADVANCE.

The Public Utilities Commission
has performed a public service that
ranks among its most important ac-
complishments, in issuing the order
for laying a double-track line from
Fourteenth and F streets, down
Fourteenth street past the Hotel
Willard. to connect with the line
that now runs to the Bureau of En-
craving and the section of town
dominated by the Department of Ag-
ricultUre. This will make it possible
to change the routing OF cars des-
tined to this important section, so
that the present f street line will
give place to a better scheme of con-
nection. Cars now taking f street
will 90 west on G. to Fourteenth,
then turn south and run direct to
the Bureau section. 1t will also be
possible to carry F and G street cars
over these tracks to this same part
of the city. and a Encouragement of
service will give direct connections
with parts of the town from which
this territory is now practically
isolated.
Not the least important. part OF
this plan is that which requires that
tracks shall be laid for a distance on
Water street. This is a move in the
direction of opening a new wholesale
marketing section, with steam rail-
way, trolley, and wharf facilities, in
the territory adjacent to Water
street. The recent report of the Su-
perintendent of Markets pointed out
the need of such a development, and
important commercial interests are
known to be concerning themselves
in the effort to carry the project
much farther in the near future.

DO WE UNDERSTAND?

From Genoa comes a disconcert-
ing report that when the American
Christmas toy ship arrived at that
port the dominant tone of comment
on the American charity was one Of
cynicism, if not downright disgust.
The people declined to be enthusiasts
tic about sending jumping-jacks to
starving orphans; they took the view
that the value Of the toys, in a more
available form for meeting the fear

There could have been no finer
sentiment than that which moved the
sending of the toy ship. 1t bespoke
thought for the little ones. But per-
haps it is true that Americans are
still 50 far away from wars desola-
ton that they cannot fully realize
how completely sentiment must be
thrust aside and utility substituted,

sort Of sentiment that makes man

cigarettes, to send by parcel post to
some friend in the trenches, or the
sort of sentiment that prompts send

ful and not very practical; but it is
extremely human, and it doesn't de
tract much from the scope of very
practical things we can and do help
to accomplish. The child that has

However. it seems necessary to ar

and Il is quite possible to strengthen the
Triple Alliance by enlarging il into

GERMANY OFF THE SEA

In the few years of this and all
through the last century the in
evitabIe test of naval battle has ever
been the greatest weight Of metal
thrown to hit. Gun equal to gun,

Der of guns wins the sea fight.

opposite guns short of the enemy's

dealt to the English ships; and be
yond doubt, though the details are
not yet at hand, Tor the same reason
English guns which could reach,
against German guns which could
not.
The immediate result of this latest
and greatest sea battle of the war is
that all the waters of the New World
are cleared Of the sea power of Ger

off all the Seven Seas. The more
lasting result carries in the un-
answerable lesson that the ship that
can carry the mightiest guns holds
dominion of the oceans and the
shores they wash.

These words summarize Germany's in

able to form an opinion how this object
may be achieved We must consider the
ways and means which are at the dis

LOADING THE CARS.

Out in Detroit, where they are al
ways willing to try new idea with
a promise of good results, the street
car managers have placed fare col
lectors on a number of important
traffic corners, to collect fares before
passengers board the cars. The
scheme is so managed that the pas
sengers make change and pay in ad-
vance; when their car stops they
are able to climb aboard at both
ends, and to avoid the exasperating
delays of the P. A. Y. E. operation.
The scheme is said TO have given
much satisfaction, making it pos
sible to fill the cars in much less
time, and thus improve service as
well as the comfort of travellers.
AS between this plan, which makes
it possible to use both ends of the
car and hasten the loading operation,
and the method represented by the
middle-entrance dreadnaught cars
used on some lines in this town, the
advantage would seem to be de-
cidedly with the Detroit idea. 1t
should be worth trying, anyhow. The
use Of collectors would be necessary
at only few points of heavy traffic,
and the increased mileage cars would
make would probably compensate for
the cost of the collectors.

BASEBALL BUSINESS.

Connie Mack has often been called
one of the cleverest men in baseball.
To live cd to that reputation, a man
certainly would not be expected TO go
along furnishing the best IN his par
ticular lire without any changes, al
ter q season that meant a loss of
$4,000. That is what the ledger Of
the Athletics supposedly displayed
on the wrong side at the close of the
worlds series, and none can blame
Mr.. Mack for making moves that
look toward recouping his losses.
Under these conditions the sale Of
Collins, undoubtedly one of the
greatest PLAYERS Of all times, for a
sum reputed to be $4,000, the larg-
est ever paid for an Individual play
pr. does not come as an absolute
surprise.
Back in the '9Os it was shown at
Baltimore that d city can have too
much good baseball. The same eX-
perience has come TO Philadelphia.
Although the national game went
through a wretched season, there
was no excuse for a pennant-win-
ming team losing money, especially
when that team was anything but
the highest salaried in the league.
This condition did prevail in Phila-
delphia the past season.
The sale of Collins, together with
the loss of Plank and Bender, means
The breaking up Of an undUly strong
aggregation Of players, and viii
benefit the entire league. Interest
ID the pennant race viii be increased.
One can see in the incident the
NachiaveIlian hand Of President
Johnson. Philadelphia win throw up
its hands in horror, but the Ameri-
can League will be the better off for
me sale OF the famous second base
man.
