Don't Retard the Ambulance.

If the speed limit were to be applied to the
ambulances of the city hospitals while going to
the relief of injured persons, presumably the next
step would be to apply the traffic regulations to
fire apparatus responding to alarms. The super
intendent of police, however, declares that this
was not the object of his instructions to the po-
lice captains after his conference with them; that
he merely ordered them to put stop to the
reckless operation Of the ambulances When the
police and the hospital chauffeurs reach proper
understanding of the situation, therefore. the
danger of retarding the work of saving life or
property probably will be removed Just now,
however, the tangle is curtailing the efficiency OF
the hospital service and the loss OF human life
as a result is not impossible.
The statement by the District Commissioners
yesterday with its comparisons Of distances and
speed presented argument in favor of re-
stricting the ambulances to the legal limit, was
illogical and confusing, concluding with the use
of the word more" when "less" apparently was
intended and proving nothing. Neither the Com
missioners any one else can demonstrate bv A
calculation in seconds how much quicker an am
bulance proceeding at twenty-five miles an hour
can make a trip of two or three miles from the
hospital and return than one travelling at half
the speed In the first case the ambulance sound
ing necessarily its loud and distinctive alarm,
would have a clear track; proceeding at the
same rate OF speed other vehicles it would en-
counter almost equal number of obstacles A
practical test between ambulance permitted to
attain speed of twenty-five miles an hour and
private automobile restricted to twelve, from
hospital to given point and back would sur
prise the Commissioners and perhaps enable them
to realize the grave possibility of throwing away
precious time that might mean the loss or the
saving Of life. Certainly the very small NUM-
Der of trifling accidents attributed to the high
speed of ambulances will not be cited as an argt-
ment in favor of applying the speed regulations
to them. Persons using the streets are able to
recognize the ambulances at distance and are
as quick to clear the way as they are when the
FIRE engines approach. The charge of recklessness
against the hospital chauffeurs is new and Sill
prsing one, since a lack of caution indicates a
disregard of their own lives; and if the charge
is true it must be admitted that they have been
extremely lucky.
However, the unfortunate mess can easily be
Strengthened out, though it will mean new and
more explicit instructions from the superintendent
of police to the members of his force and some
assurance to the hospital chauffeurs, who as a
result of the agitation now disposed to pro-
coed as though they were hearse drivers at the
funerals of some of the unfortunate citizens whose

Democracy's Fate in the Balance.

Discussing the prospects of the Democratic
party at the polls seven months hence w. ].
Bryan cites as its claims to popular approval its
achievements in bringing about the direct cleo
ton of United States Senators by the people, in
reforming the rules of the House of Represent
atives senacting the best tariff bill the country
has had for fifty years, reforming the currency
system, enacting laws against trade monopoly,
providing for the future independence of the
Filipinos, avoiding war with Mexico or any of the
European powers, improving pan-American re-
lations and last but greatest of. all in his own
mind no doubt, the conclusion of the we'll known
treaties of arbitration. 1t will be observed that
Mr.. Bryan writes down as assets of his party
at least three things which its opponents at
present regard its greatest labilities-its Mex
lean policy, its with relation to the Euro
pean and the Underwood tariff law. Upon
the other claims set up by Mr. Bryan it may
be doubted whether his party will realize very
heavily in votes, since most of them likely
to be regarded as having been settled and dis
posed Of At best they are destined for but a
small share of -electoneering limelight. On
the subject of preparedness, which necessarily
must play an important part, Mr.. Bryan is dis
creetly non-committal in his inventory, which ap-
pears in the current issue of the Independent
Viewing the battle at this distance it is seen
with certainty that Republican attack will be di-
rected against the Underwood bill, which will be
blamed for emptying the Treasury and imposing
extraordinary taxes upon the people, and unless
the administration meets with signal successes
and in Berlin the President will be violently as

lives the high seas and beyond our Southern
border, and one will doubt that such an accu-
sation will make a profound impression upon
a vast number of Americans who will not be car
ried away with gratitude because the President
has kept the country out of war so long as there
is room for suspicion that the nations honor and
rights was the price of the achievement. No
political student will fail to recognize that should
Cen Pershing's force capture Villa, and interven-
ton is avoided, earlier Encouragement in Mexico
will be practically forgotten, just the absolute
abandonment by Germany of her present method
OF submarine warfare would tend to dim the red
stain of American blood upon the hands of those
with whom the administration continues on terms
Of friendship and soften the public indignation at
their crimes OF the past These two eventuaites
would strengthen President Wilson's position inn
measurably, but who can look forward to them
with anything but faint hope? So it would ap-
pear that Mr.. Bryan has set down two great
issues that yet to be decided in Mexico and
between Washington and Berlin among his partys
chief claims for the votes of the people, and
hence his prediction of Democratic success, ap-
parently uttered with some reservation or msgiv-
ing, does not assay convincngly. Much Of
Democracy's fate is in the balance in Mexico and
Germany.

Joseph Jefferson, the actor, had vigorous life
instinct.
One might naturally say: Most people have
who are so successful, so rich and so popular
with the public" And yet such people are often
among the most unhappy in the world, cyclists,
absorbed in themselves alone not in the fairy
land of life, with its multitude of interests and
with the excitements of dawn, noon and night
I once heard Joseph Jefferson say: "Why, a
chip that pick up in the woods interests me-"
He had the joy of breaking into new paths
every day of his life, of making thrilling dis
coveries.
In his last years he discovered that he could
lecture. Soon ecturing became the GROWING de-
light of his career.

eagerness of child, every time | get up on the
platform | say things didn't even know | knew"
You see, he was experiencing the surprise that
every speaker and writer knows the surprise of
surprising himself, OF seeming to be aided by
some power outside himself of speaking from
some other consciousness.
1t is one of the greatest of all joys And it
comes to the smallest of lecturers
1t must have been wonderfully stimulating in
the case OF Joseph Jenerson, Tor a long lite OF
observation had stored his brain cells with precious
material.
And that material came out shining like
gold, he knew it good and he took whole
souled delight.
In the excitement of patform-tall his brain
would get into white heat. The little brownies
would work for him furiously. He would pour
out ideas like volcano.
No wonder he happy. No wonder he

The District Commissioners are making verv
little progress with their Capitalization of power
idea. Now it is the War Department that objects
to surrendering control Of the Capitals water
supply upon the unsupported theory that economy
would result from a change and that friction NAV
arise under the present arrangement. Since there
has been no friction and Washington has had an
adequate and excellent water supply during the
many years the War Department has controlled it,
and since it has not been shown how saving
can be effected, the public would be better served
by letting thoroughly satisfactory arrangement
alone especially the experiment proposed offers
risk and no advantage.
