 Tt gives me great pleasure to ln- dorse the candidacy of General Wood He is a man of fearless disposition and strikes out boldly for what he con- siders right.

Retirement Adopted.

Passage by the House yesterday OF
the civil retirement bill was effected
by such an overwhelming vote-273 to
53-that there should be no question
whatever of the completion Of this
legislation at the present session. The
bill now goes back to the Senate for
acceptance or rejection of the amend
ments made by the House. If they are
accepted the bill goes to the President
for signature. II they are rejected it
goes to conference for adjustment.
After many years this great reform
in the civil service system Of the gov
eminent is about to be eohsummated.
The absolute need of it is now recog-
nized. The tremendous majority
passed for 1t in the House proves that
both the justice to the clerks and the
need Of the government involved in
this change are fully understood.
It is rather strange that this was not
accomplished before. The situation
was just as urgent twenty years ago
as now. There were in proportion just
as many superannuated clerks clinging
to their positions in the government
service. There were relatively as many
typical eases Of men and women held
by official sympathy, to the detriment
of the administration. But there was
a prejudice against the very thought
Of civil retirement. 1t took time to
overcome it. 1t required the example
of big business institutions to awaken
q realization of the practical value Of
such system. 1t finally took the ex.
perienees Of the war to bring about
the actual enactment.
The Star congratulates the govern.
ment workers, in whose interest it has
labored steadfastly for many years
for this important reform.

to make satisfactory arrangement
of rates and schedules possible. Both
at home and abroad dislocation con-
tinues, and business men are somewhat
"in the air. as to the future, near or
remote.
But, in time. the tariff will have to
be revised; and when that time comes.
the biggest job of revision ever on
any congressional card will be on the
card Of that Congress. Hence, as the
tariff is likely to be an issue again
this year. both the Chicago platform
and the San Francisco platform will
have to contain pronounremcnts on
the subject, and prepared with care.
It is a subject with which both par
ties have often dealt and OH which
both have records, but there are new
angles to it now which will require
close study on the part of legislators.
To degree. the subject is new.

The Children and the Degwood.

During the past week the children
of the public schools have been taught
the need of greater respect for the
dogwood tree and the folly of break
/ ing off branches for the sake of its
blossoms. The eighth grade pupils
were directly instructed, and they, III
turn, have worked as missioner among
the younger children. AT the close
of school yesterday over 10000 chill
drcn in this city had been impressed
with the need of protection for tins
beautiful Towering tree. which is one
of the glories of the country in this
section and which, if not safeguar,lel.

These children are, in effect, pledged
to work against the use CT the dog
wood for decoration in schools, in
churches, Sunday schools and homes,
and against the gathering of its 3los
SONS for any purpose. Their pleas for
the preservation of the dogwood should
be needed by the elders.

The Bankers ON Labor.

The executive council of the Ameri-
can Bankers Association in session at
Pinehurst, y. c., adopted resolutions
Thursday in which the associations at
titude toward labor was described. This
demanded "a fair return for services
rendered. and expressed the opinion
that, at present, "labor, in effect, is
striking at itself and not at capital"
The record for the past year goes
far to support this opinion. The steel
strike, while aimed at capital. injured
labor more than it did capital. 1t was
i'll advised. and on that account failed
No sympathy of consequence was
manifested anywhere for the strikers.
Failure WIS inevitable.
The Goa! strike, which followed few
months later, was even more lnexcus-
able. Called at the beginning OF win
er, the purpose was undisguised. The
whole public was to pay, and, IT the
strike became protracted, many iano-
cent people with their lives. Such a
strike was bound to fail, and to east
reproach on those who had called it.
And the wildcat railroad strike was
Of like character. Called against the
counsel of the railroad bretherh Gods,
and in violation Of expressed agree
ments, it sought to paralyze transpor-
tatioR and inflict heavy punishment on
the country. Success was impossible.
Only limited and temporary disloca-
items took place. But the spirit of the
strike leaders was plainly disclosed,
and labor generally suffered for the
performances of the unworthy few.
Neither capital nor labor can put it.
self successfully into opposition to the
public welfare. The public refuses to
be damned by anybody or anything,
and when provoked is always powerful
enough to down its enemies.

to give the teachers this extra bonus
would directly lead to demands for
grants from other quarters. No other
class of District employes is in the
same situation as the teachers. None
others will have to wait until October
to get the first of the increased pay
cheeks.
This bonus can be girea. 1t should
be given. 1t is imperative;y needed.
If not granted the teachers wilt be
forced deeper into debt FOR their ne
cessities and many of them will find
relief from their difficulties only
through resignation and entrance upon
better paid employment. The schools
have suffered severely from this cause
already. Now is the time to act.

The Teachers Bonus,

When Oliver Twist asked for "more"
d Dotheboys Hall, Squeers thrashed
him as ungrateful and greedy. The
teachers of the Washington public
schools are asking for "more" The
prayer and expectation of the people
Of the capital is that Congress, to

which has been most generous in pro-
Siding increases in pay for next year,
Mill not respond in the spirit of Squeers,
but will recognize that the teachers

Ooor little Oliver.
This present petition Of the teachers,
voiced at last nights mass meeting
pf citizens. is for bonus Of $500 pay

EQUITY when submitted to fair-miaded
Americans. Our pending constitutional
amendment for national representation,
urged in principle since 1888, was iIi-
tiated in substantially its present shape
in the suffrage committee of the Cham
Der Of Commerce, and was unanimously
indefsed by the chamber, and by the

serves to hold together in loose or

widely in respect to other political and
connected issues, but are united in
the fight to secure this American
privilege Of vital importance to them
all. For example. those who wish to
change radically the form Of local gov
eminent and those who desire to re-
tain it are united and must continue
to be united in fighting for national
representation. The hostility of either
can readily defeat a constitutional
amendment requiring two-thirds
vote of both houses of Congress. Their
earnest, combined efforts are neces-
sary to success. Each factor, sincere
in the desire for common victory in
the community interest, must scrupu-
lously avoid ignoring, slurring, alarm
