BY THEODORE p. MOVES.
Has every one seen thetrafTic officer
standing in the middle Of the street
on 18th street hill above U street? And
does every one understand why he is
there?
He is there to keep motorists on the
right side of the street, and marks
the first active move of the police de-
partment to enforce that rule.
His name is c.. G. Barteman, one
of the many brothers of that name on
the police force. Mr.. Barteman says
that he intends to keep his position in
the middle of the street until every
one who comes up or down keeps as
close to the right-hand curb as pos
sible.
This effort to enforce the keep to
the right" rule is looked upon with
much favor by the majority of mo-
torists in the city, who find it more
other cars going in the same direction
without pulling far over to the left
hand curb and on the wrong side of
the street.
Hard to Drive On.
Sixteenth street is especially hard
to drive on, particularly in the after
noon from 4:30 to 6 o'clock, and at
theater time at night. 1t Is common
sight to see two long lines of cars
each near the center of the. street,
and with plenty of space to the curb
which could be we'll utilized. 1t not
only finders traffic, but makes 1t very
dangerous to pass another car.
1t would not be a bad move. on the
part of the police department, in the
opinion of many motorists in the city.
to have men stationed in the center
of all the principal streets to keep
people from crowding over near the
center when there is plenty of room
at the curb.

experience with one Of them the other

suitable action.

THE. OLD AND THE NEW

With the old year just drawing to close and the new, but few short hours away, it is but natural for one to look ahead and hope that many things will happen, during the con- ing months, for the public good Lower prices, of course, is probably the first wish of all, and Attorney General Palmer says that these will be forthcoming.
 Aside from this, we believe that the public in general will be better satisfied with return of the railroads to private ownership. The dissolu- tion of the big packing industries for the purpose of restricting their busi- ness to meat products only, will tend to have quieting effect on the nerve wracked public, even though it will not materially lower meat prices.
 The feature which holds the spot : iight-and has held it for some time is the peace treaty. When this document is signed, sealed and de- kvered, we believe the sigh of relief that the several nations will emit will cause a tornado, or at least a whirl- wind4 This delay in ratifying treaty of peace that will satisfy the majority, seems to many to be the great stumbling block toward a quick return to normal conditions.
 The great national affairs can be but little affected by the actions of any one person and locally as we'll as nationally, the most rational thing to do is practically forget them and seek to better local conditions in every line. This can only come about through cooperation; by try ing to produce little more and re- reive little less; by helping your neighbor put in his ice, like one of our clergymen, and then have him help you.
 Instead of buying two new suits this year, buy one and press up the old one. But do the pressing your self, going 50-5O with the tailor by letting him press the new one. Try and get along with the cheaper cuts of meat and make up the difference with vegetables. Cut out some of the dances and some of the movies and you can buy good pair of shoes that will outwear three poor ones.
 In other words to have prosper ous new year, every individual must economize until production is again normal. Then food stuffs and wear ing apparel will be cheaper, labo. prices will naturally be lower, but quality will be higher and happiness greater.

SUGAR PRICES

The following which appeared in a New York paper last week, makes one stop and think when it comes to the price for refined sugar in New York and that paid by many here for un- refined sugar:
 "A wholesale price of 15.20 cents a pound, less 2 per cent for cash, was announced by B. H. Howell Son 6 Co.,, as the first quo tation for granulated sugar re- fined from the new crop of raw Cuban sugar. This contrasts with a price of nine cents pound, less 2 per cent for cash for granulated from the old Cuban crop, and was said to indicate a retail price of between IT and Is cents pound"
 It was generally expected that 3 higher price for granulated sugar would be necessary when the new
