Is Of the very essence Of official duty

his duty as promised there can prob
ably be no doubt. and if the sub

copy him the whole commonwealth
will benefit.
In the last and proper analysis. in

simply that Of law or ultimate anarchy.
People are not to be permitted to pick
and choose, but must obey all law.
Officers of the law are not to feel at

The School Building Program.

Ii is indicated that the Commission
ers. in framing the annual District
budget, will ask the appropriation Of a
large sum for new school buildings
and additions to existing structures.
This is in line with public expectation
and hope. Nothing is palmer than that
the school equipment is Inadequate
grades to the highest. Old buildings
have been outgrown and comparative
ly new buildings as well. Some of the
older buildings are unfit for further
use. All Of the high schools are over
crowded; only one of them. the East
ern, is assured of relief through new
construction. The Commissioners, it
is indicated. will recommend an addi-
ton to the Technical, Western and
Armstrong schools. Business High
School should be included in the list,
for it has grown to the limit Of the
present structure and the site permits
of no additions. The hope is that with
the erection of the new Eastern and
the present congestion at Central will
he. relieved. Wings are proposed for
the Junior high schools
The only way to give the District a
proper school equipment is to start in
with a definite program Of yearly ad-
ditions, much in excess Of the require
ments of annual increase. and insure
successive appropriations without
failure or reduction covering a period
of several years. 1t has been hoped
that the joint select committee on
school affairs would before now have
framed and secured the adoption Of
such a program. giving basis for an
nual estimates. In the absence of such
program, however. the Commission
ers should proceed with their own pro
posals on the assumption that it is
the disposition of Congress to make
adequate provision for the District
schools. without any particular refer
ence to prospective immediate reve
nues. Obviously the Districts school
system cannot be built up to its re-
quired point with the funds available
after the current expenses have been
met out of the ordinary revenues.

Emma Goldman is lodging about in
Europe. welcome nowhere, contented
nowhere. She has worked herself into
such state Of discomfort. nothing
suits her. Here she finds one thing
wrong, there another thing, yonder a
third thing. The chase after perfec.
tion-according to the Goldman no.

in failure.
Unfortunately for themselves and
the world, there are many persons,
men and women. of this Goldman sort
They have multiplied in numbers
amazingly OF late years. and their
audacity of suggestion seems bound
less. Whatever is, is wrong; and they
conceive themselves capable. and with
call, to set it right.
AS. naturally, they are not in agree
ment among themselves about what
should be done-what remedies should
be applied-chaos would result from
the overturning Of what all of them
are set against. After destruction had
taken place their union would dis
solve. They could not remain united
and cooperate on any plan or scheme
Of construction.
Unrest is greater now and more
widely distributed than mankind has
known in ages, if ever before. The
world is so united now by wire and
hy wireless denressiOn and disorder
are easily communicated. But so are

hope and are confident outnumber by
far those who merely kick and knock

Goldman sort are ditched.
