The assessment of real estate, not
yet as honest 1t should be by long
shot. is much less dishonest than it
was. Johnson got TO looking into the
organic act of 1873 and discover
ed that this town was to be govern
ed by commission of resident, :"
but that half the expenses was paid
out of the national treasury, and he
assailed that condition, and then the
tioodgates of wrath were opened. He
paid small heed to the villification of
the local press and the denunciation
of business association" He went
his way.
He went ahead. Twice or thrice
he has passed through the House. Of
which he is member, repeal of the
"half-and-half" plan of the organic
act. The Senate is the last ditch Of
privilege and so far that body has
defeated him. but it will not be for
long. Invisible government came
out of its hole in this town the other
day when the President sent to the
Senate the nomination of Mr.. Siddons
for one of the local judgeships. In
visible government put its hands
forth with result l as yet know not
of. think 1t will triumph. but in
justice is ever fool in the end II
will not succeed except for the mo-
ment.
Ben Johnson hates a meanness.
His soul takes on fire when IL is pre-
sented to him that wealth shirks its
duty and imposes it on poverty. 1t
would be very difficult for me at this
moment to name any other man in
either House of Congress who would
not have succumbed to the warfare
that has been waged against Ben
Johnson.
But Ben Johnson has the ear of the
House and he will get the attention
of the Senate. and even that body
will harken to q plain provision of
justice. which is that all property in
the District of Columbia shall be as
sessed at its fair value for taxation.
! think Ben Johnson is a fixture in
Congress and ! am sure that the next
generation of the District OF Colum-
bia will call his name blessed.

try to digest. They are on my desk
now unread, but reckon know
enough of what they contain to write
a reasonable intelligent paper about
them, so here goes.
This here town thinks II has ex-
hausted eulology when 1t says Of a
member or Senator, "He is a friend
of the district" To be a friend of
the district 1t was necessary to fetch
and carry for certain rich men of the
city of Washington, who composed
as greedy a ring as ever cursed Gin
cinnati or other like towns. For
years the national capital has been
run in the interest of these gentry.
Perhaps in the entire Union there
could not be found a town whose
public service corporations had drank
more water. Indeed, the statement
is made that certain street railroad

In the rich northwest section. where
dwell the rich tax dodgers from the
States, the assessment of real proper
ty was ridiculously low. In the other
and poorer sections the assessment
was oppressively high For instance
l certain estate, containing some thir-
y acres. was assessed at a sum that
would not pay half the cost of
fence that enclosed it. whereas in
the northwest. where poor folk live,
the assessment of real estate was
pretty nearly the par value of the
property.

THE SUFFRAGE VOTE.

woodrow Wilson is president of
the United States by virtue OF less
votes than II states have cast for
woman Suffrage. The difference lies
In the fact that all Wilson needed to
bring success to his ambition was a
plurality OF the vote in badly di-
vided field, while Suffrage has to
bring to its standard majority vote.
The woman's Journal gives the fol-
lowing interesting figures bearing up
on the advance the cause OF woman
has made in recent years:
Since the United States senate
acted on the nationwide amendment,
I,SSs,364 votes in eleven states have
been cast for the enfranchisement Of
women. Besides this, in the suf-
frage states there is solid popular
vote of 4.545.S11 for president of the
United States. The combined suf-
frage strength, as shown at the polls
In only twenty-one of the forty-eight
states of the Union, is 6.435,175. or
142,156 more votes than President
Wilson received at the last presiden-
tial election throughout the country.
Estimated vote for suffrage In New
York, Pennsylvania and Massachu-
sets. according to the Associated
Press. 1,016, 900; official vote for suf-
frage in New Jersey, 133,201; official

San Francisco. Nov, 27,--German
consul Franz Bopp employed G. @.
Crowley, Investigator for District At
torney Flckert and former Southern
Pacific detective. charged with being
an anti-ally bomb plotter,
This much loomed up as certain
ty in the case today. Crowley con-
fessed Il: Bopp admitted Il after hay-
Ing previously denied Il.
Both. however. disclalmed any
guilty action by Crowley. Crowley
said his work was In tracing the ae-
tivities OF allied agents In this conn-
try. Bopp declared he was engaged
confdentiaily In ferretlng out Brit
ish recruiting here--not at all in
getting information as TO munitions
shipment.
Crowley was angered at intimations
that he had confessed to part In
the nationwide bomb plotting, His
life. he said. had been open. his deeds
lawful. Any one claiming different
ly, he allowed, should be tarred and
| feathered.
| Meantime. he was out on bail.
while federal officials sought to run
down data to connect him with high
er ups"
Bopp justified his employment OF
Crowley on the ground that the Brit
ish consulate had engaged Pinker-
tons. Moreover, he added. none OF
Crowley's work had been other than
legitimate.
Rumors in federal circles suggest
ed that Attorney Herman Lehke. for
the German consulate put up funds
with the United States Fidelity and
Guarantee company for Crowley's
bonds.
! Lehke denied Il, but Federal Dis
trict Attorney Preston intimated he
may call the company to reveal the
actual bondsman when the case goes
to the grand jury Monday.
Crowley this afternoon assumed a
defiant attitude toward the govern
ment officials. They had promised
him immunity II he revealed high
err ups; he answered that they may
go ahead and try to prove their case
that he has naught to fear.
