To the Editor Of The Herald: II
Is most urgent that something be
done Immediately to improve the
car service on the Georgetown
Rockville route. The tracks are
there, but. alas, seldom any cars, so
when one does appear II is too
crowded for further occupancy.
What cars theresare are so old and
decrepit it is a wonder how they
hold together at all. Instead OF the
government spending millions of
dollars to erect houses for the in
fiux of clerks, why not take over, or
cause some reliable party to take
over, the management of the street
railways, buy plenty Of new up-to-
date cars, and see that they are
properly run, so that people will be
willing to go into the suburbs to live,
where many could be accommodated
and where many are anxious to
furnish rooms for such purpose.
In other cities all the people can
not live within walking distance of
their work, so why should they
here? But the first thing Is to fur
nish comfortable and adequate
TRANSPORTATION in all directions, use
what tracks there are to their limit.
and not wait to talk about more
tracks, subways, etc. Surely this
would expedite war work as much
as anything.

= Responsibility.

Chauncey Mitchell Depew, eighty-four year
young, addressing the Pilgrims Society of New
York in January said:
l remember if it were yesterday the in
auguration of Mr.. Lincoln as one of the dra-
matte episodes in our history. AS he faced
that vast crowd in front OF the Capitol few
had ever seen or knew much about him. Sur
rounding him his Cabinet were the ablest
leaders in American public file. nearly all of
them his opponents, some from his own and
some from the other party. The assembled
people knew them and all about them.
Mr.. Lincoln made only one appointment
on account of friendship, and that was his in
innate friend, Caleb H. Smith, who had been a
colleague in Congress. But Smith was not
equal to the demands of that strenuous period
and was replaced by stronger man. John P
Usher. Simon Cameron was appointed Secre-
tary OF War. Cameron was able, had great in
fluence and power, and had been a most i'm
portant factor in the success of Mr.. Lincoln's
nomination But when, after years trial, Mr.
Lincoln became convinced that for more
vigorous prosecution of the war an exceptional
official was required, he asked for Mr. Cam
erons resignation. He then astonished the
country by not only going outside his party,
but by selecting uncompromising Democrat,
who had been his most bitter and virulent
CEiliCp ana naQ characterized hin as a gorilla.
So Edwin NJ. Stanton, the most energetic, able
and brutal of war secretaries, had the opportu-
nifty and won great fame. Mr.. Lincoln with
rare tact maintained harmony among those
hostile elements in his Cabinet He so utilized
the superior ability of each that the country
had the service of its ablest statesmen. But
the President stronger because of their
strength. He became and remained supreme
master, and stands alone in the peoples mem
ory as the genius of the reconstruction of our
Union.
Mr.. Depew concluded his interesting speech b,
adding:
The four greatest constructive statesmen in
our history are Alexander Hamilton, Thomas
Jefferson, Daniel Webster and Abraham Lin
coin. If either of them had the responsibilities
of this war, which are greater than all our wars
put together, he would not have survived the
task, but together their united experience and
unequaled intelligence would have utilized all
our resources and consolidated the country con-
hdently behind them. We want President VIII
son 10 remain our President; We don't want to
