small cities have come into being.
These are all growing, and every year
new villages come upon the map.
Some Of the villages have their own
water and sewer systems. that are
more or less satisfactory to them
selves, but often their sewer systems
are unsatisfactory to neighboring
communities. On the Virginia side
of the river the same situation pre-
walls.
The "Washington area" or metro
politan district, largely transcends
the boundaries of the District Of Co.
lumbia and is developing in popula-
ton at a remarkable rate. One gen
eral water service and sewer system
is indicated for this area. The in
crease of the water supply by the
Great Falls plan, with the develop
ment of hydro-eleetric power by i'm
pounding the Potomac from line be-
low Little Falls to the foot of Great
Falls seems to be highly approved
project. In addition to this we may
see a supplementary water supply
drawn from the upper Patuxent for
the benefit not only of the city. but
of the outlying regions of the "metro-
politan area" north and east of the
District.

quence in the presidential equation.
The democrats of Jersey Blue doubt
less think well Of him, and there is
reason why wet democrats in other
states should applaud his frankncss
on the prohibition issue. But there
is not the slightest probability CT his
nomination at San Francisco.
What Mr.. Bryan has III mind, and
what Chairman Cummings must take
into consideration, is the position the
democratic party must take at San
Francisco both in platform and ticket
on the prohibition issue as it now
exists Will it try to reverse itself,
and pledge itself to policy for max
ing the whole country "as wet rs the
Atlantic ocean or will 1t pledge it
self and its candidate for President
to the thorough enforcement of The
prohibition amendment to the Com
stitution9
Mr.. Bryan is very accurately de-
scribed as live wire. He is all alive.
He gave new. interest to the discus
sion of the peace treaty. He has
given new interest now TO the dis
cussion of prohibition. 1t is plain,
of course, that the vets are prepar-
ing to move on the works of both the
old parties. They will be in attend
ance in force at Chicago. and, later,
at San Francisco. At the Golden Gate
they will encounter Mr.. Bryan IN

battle because of recognizing in his
opponents many men who in his three
campaigns for the presidency exerted
themselves toward bringing about his

The Weather.

1t takes all kinds of weather to
make climate in the 3Sth degree and
some minutes of latitude north, and
the weather of last night and today
is one of the worst specimens that are
produced in the latitude of Wash
ington. Yet, it would be useless to
make a protest against it. Weather
will have its way. You might even
write a letter to the editor depreeat-
ing this variety of weather, and it
would probably do very little good.
You could complain to the weather
bureau and the scientists there would
perhaps reply that while they can
read the weather's mind they cannot
control its disposition. You might
bring the matter before the Board of
Trade, Chamber of Commerce or the
Retail Merchants Association and
they could do no more to mitigate
weather like this than to pass reso-
VI lSiCi tnOhi W a
You might petition Congress for re-
form in the weather, but the flowers
would bloom in the spring and the
green leaves of summer would turn
gold. purple and scarlet before the
investigation would get under way.
So. as bad as the weather is, let US
put on high rubbers or skates, raise
the umbrella and wait until a street
car comes along. OF course, it may
not come along, and then the next
best thing to do is to walk home un-
less a neighbor with an automobile
comes into view and halls you.
Washington in the course of the
year does not get much weather like
this. Generally weather as bad as
this happens only once in four years
on March A. But let US not be down
hearted! The clouds will pass away,
the ice will turn to slush and run
off to the grand old Potomac and
bright and merry days will come
again!

Colds and Influenza.

A close watch is being kept on the
health of the people of the District,
and especially in the matter of in
fluenza. The health officer says that
the situation has not become serious,
and the hope is that it may not be-
come serious. The indications sup
port this hope. The experts say that
influenza cases will be nothing like
so numerous as they were last year,
and those that do come upon US will
be milder.
Then there is this to be thought
of. With so much talk about influ-
enza many disagreeable colds and
cases Of grip will be thought of as in
fuenza. Colds and cases of grip used
to spread over the city generations
before the appearance of influenza,
and many alleged cases of influenza
are no doubt cases of grip-bad
enough in themselves, but not as seri-
Gus as influenza. Many physicians
famous for their professional abih-
ties confess the difficulty of diagnos-
ing influenza unless it be a clear and
typical case. Only small percentage
of the colds and cases of grip that
are called influenza are in reality that
disease. A cold or the grip should
be looked after. No chances should
be taken with either. The usual ap-
proved methods of treatment should
be followed, and certainly among
these methods are the taking of plen-
ty of rest, breathing of clean air and
keeping ones self free from anxiety
or mental disturbance.

Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Cummings

Chairman Cummings Of the demo-
cratic national committee explains
that he attended the Edwards inau-
gurai dinner out of compliment to the
democratic governor of great state !.
that he gave no thought to the Ed
wards boom for President: that his
position IN regard to presidential
candidates is one Of impartial neu
trslity."
But tins does not satisfy Mr.. Bryan,
who, in rejoindar, says:
with three fOurths of the demo-
cratic senators and two o-thirds of the
democratic members voting for snh.
mission and with every democratic
state ratitying the prohibition amen.i-
inent. and with the liquor traffic out
IaWcd by the conscience of the nf-
ton, Mr.. Cummings ought TO know that
the Edwards candidacy is an insult
to the democratic party
Still. it may bc asked, was not Mr..
Edwards candidacy for Governor OF
New Jersey an insult to the demo-
cratic party' The record Mr.. BRYAN
quotes existed last year when the
New Jersey campaign was in progress
The democratic party as a national
quantity was committed then. ~ now
to prohibition. And yet Mr.. Edwards
was nominated and elected Govcrncr
of New Jersey on an anti prohibition
platform. The Presidents friends
supported him, and Mr.. Bryan did not
actively at least, oppose him. In of

what he stood for as candidate for
office.

water supply of the District of Co.

cause of its increase in population

Russia and the Future.

Marquis Okuma, the japanese states
man, in proposing a renewal of the
Auglo-Japanese alliance which expires
in 1921, says:
"Russia, with its great population
of nearly 200,000,000, can become a
strong power if great leader should
appear. even though the territories of
Finland and Poland have been cut off.
The temporary collapse of Russia IS
not enough to make the Anglo-Jap-
anese alliance unnecessary"
Yes, and this suggests chapter of
most important history France be-
came a strong power again after her
unforgettablc revolution. The leader
who appeared and made her strong
was Napoleon. He was perfectly
qualified for his role. He had both
genius and training.
The task at the outset was of a
military character; and he was an
educated soldier. Subsequently,
craftsmanship was required, and he
proved to be statesman also. In
deed, he proved to be so capable in
both military and civil matters. and
accomplished so much in both, his
genius ran away with him, and he be-
came a curse to his country and to
the world. Neither recovered from
the malign influence of his activities
and performances for many years.
Russia may not be harboring a Ma
poleon in embryo. 1t is a question, if
she is. History rarely repeats her
self exactly in that way. Suited to
the country and its conditions there
of is the rescuing leader And the
Russia of this day does not resemble
the France of NapoleOns day. The
people and the conditions are very
different.
Nevertheless. a masterful Russian,
capable of big things and bent on
achieving them, may appear and take
hold. The stage is set The time is
propitious. The world upset began
more than five years ago; and while
turmoil still exists everywhere, it is
most acute in Russia.
If a masterful Russian does appear
in the nature of things he must be
either an educated soldier like Napo
leon, or a born soldier like Crom-
well-what will be do? How long
will it take him to bring order out
of the chaos he. Will cOnfront3 Upon
whom will he make war after
he gets into his stride. With
whom will he seek to make alliances9
He Will be a Russian, with Russian
bent and predictions. He is not at
all likely to resemble Washington, and
content himself with establishing a
government. He will want it run,
and to run it himself, Russian fash
ion.
Russia, as all the nations confess,
Is, IN her present condition, a menace
to the world. But how much more of
menace will she become if a Man
on Horseback appears and rides down
the authors and conductors of the ex-
isting chaos; and then, at the head
of the Russian host, reunited and re-
armed, sets out to assert himselfa No
wonder this elder statesman of japan
wants his eountry's alliance with
Great Britain renewed.

SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.
Divided Attention.


When good Ben Franklin and the rest
Of those old patriots true
Gave to the world the very best
That heart and brain could do,
They had an audience all intent
That tried to understand
With now and then an incident
OF music by the band.
With simple tunes their souls were
warmed
At an impressive scene;
No ragtime acrobat performed
Upon jazzerine.
Mems minds they held to business
Which then they took in hand.
The competition was much less
By music from the band.

FEAR DIVISION

Hanover, Germany. Sept. 23, De-
 layed-"Our present bankruptcy is
 glittering bankruptcy compared with
 what we will look like if Germany is
 broken up into samu states, as the
 French wish," says President Gustave
 Noske, head of the Province of Han
 over. He further outlined his. views
 for the international News Service to-
 day as follows:
 '"The Separatists have an idea that
 the small states will save money if
 they can escape the taxation of the
 federation. The exact opposite is
 true. The individual states, almost
 without exception, are a financial Ea-
 bility on the national state- 'The national deficit was not cre- ated by expense in the official Will helmstrasse of Berlin; the outlay of money our O.o00,Oo0 paper
 marks represents was spread over the entire Reich.
 "None of the small individual states is self-supporting. Separation would mean increased expnses for them, not saving. It would require more state officials to carry out the duties now carried out by the national officers. ! Frances aim to decentraIize and break up Germany is bad economics for Germany. tI means that the off cia1 machinery will cost more; in stead or one large federal institution, there would be dozens of Implications | in a small way. This clearly means wasting money; a condition not con- | ducive to France receiving the repara- tions which should be her main in- | terest.

BEAT ). HENRY
 IN COMMITTEE ON PRIMARY DATE

Hartford, Sept. 24-In order to give the Republican women of the state an opportunity to take part in repreSen tativeS in the state 1egiSla- ture, the Republican state central committee yesterday afternoon set Monday October II, as the date for caucuses all over the state for this purpose. According to the gossip Chairman J. Henry Roraback of the state central committee wished to have the caucuses held on October g, which would have prevented the wo- men from taking part but he was op- posed by Col. I. M U1lman of New Haven and beaten on a formal vote on this question. By holding the eau cuses on the 11th the women will have two days within which to be made voters before the caucuses are held.
 The victory of Colonel U1lman on this question means that for the first time in the history of the state wo- men will this year have an oppor- tunity to take part in the Republican start at a. m.. on the 9th, so that the women will have two whole days within which to be made voters be- fore the caucuseS are held, not count ing Sunday, the 10th on which day voters will not be made
 The date was set for the 11th only after Colonel U11man had declared that he would not consider any date which would prevent the women of the state from taking part. Colonel Ul!man and the other New Haven members of the committee first tried but accepted the 11th as a compro- mise.

SEEK CLUES IN
 SEALED ROOM MURDER MYSTERY

Los Angeles, Cal, Sept. 24.-A pre- lininaryi post mortem examination of the body of Jacob Charles Denton, found buried in a sealed room in the cellar of his home, having disclosed no marks of violence, detectives searched today for evidence as to how the wealthy mining prom oter came to his death.
 Officers previously had expressed the theory that Denton had been shot or stabbed. The shooting theory was favored because a revolver fully load ed but with one cartridge of a wrong calibre had been found in a. room which Denton had reserved for his own use.
 Stories by Los Angeles friends as to when Denton was last seen differ ed as to the date. Some placed it at June 2 while others named August 19.
 Judge Russ Avery Of the Los An geles superior court, friend and at torney of the dead man made public portions of a. recent will drawn by Denton. This document disposed of the bulk of his estate to Frances Denton, daughter of his first and di- vorced wife now going to school in Phoenix, Ariz.
