The President, who will be hack iu Washing to before this is in print; has given the people jin opportu nity t) know that be has not changed his mind on the s e subjects and it. is tbnoght that he's in his utterancesaq Vicipated hi's message to Con 11 ress. : ,Two impor ta n t con Npntions on railway rate leg islattpu are now assembled in the D.iiited States,, one big convention in Chicago and and another , very small and froni its own point of yiew, Very select convention in itn committee room in the (.'api tol The country in this case will lack no campaign of edU cation. ' Iff the President does not deHire to make a run fco Pan a ma and look oyer theCanal for himself when he gets out Info the Gulf with three fast government cruisers, he will arrive in Washington about Nov, first, and he will in any event; ha vebrok'n. the un written Jaw that the Presi dent must not during bis term go beyond the limits of the Unitea States. Technical ly he may be within the lim its as long as he is on . board nn American ship under the flag but both in the gulf and in the Atlantic he will be in neutral waters and many miles from nhore. Washington is anticipat ing not only an exciting po litical session but a very gay and briliant social season. The city has made unusual preparations for the leisured fashionable contingent that spends the winter hpre in year ly increasing numbers, probs ably not less than fifty apart ment houses have been built during the summerand these added to the numbers ot sim ilar nouses will have the ef fect to make living more com fortable and less expensive than in former years. The in-cnat-e in the number of a partrnent houses has a mark ed repressing nV't on the ho tel industry. Hundredsof peo pie who were formerly in the habit of hoarding at the large hotels. nw seek t h e more comfortable and less expensive suits of rooms to be found in the new apart ment houses. Washington is far from being the most beau tiful Capital in the world and this boast is made cnly by those unfamiliar with the bet ter capitals in Europe or by those, if familiar, w h o are quite regardless of the'truth. LTheie is here, the plan und foundation of a city in every way worthy to be therapi tal of the greatest nation, in this hemisphere, buildings are -under -construction on Capitol H ilfand'tb the nor tH of the ljapi toj and sout hs of Pennsylvania avenue t h a t villi invoice across ixpe'tidl lure oHWer tweuty " millions 6J doliuSr DliiS - wHen completed,' '(probably within flyeiears) will great ly enhance the dignity of "the Capitol. One 6 the District Commissioners is now lector ing in different cities of t h'e United States in an effort to arouse national' interest in the improvement and' beauti fi ation of the Capital of the United States. .The District of Columbia embracing I h e city of Washington has nei ther voice nor vote in nation al and municipal affairs. The city and district are govern ed by Congress, and Con gressmen,' as a rule, are so much interested in their own state or district affairs that they find it both unprofita ble apd ungrateful to give time and vote money for streets, parks and publicbuil dings in Washington. If there were no other way of telling that Congress would soon be in session the appear anceof the first delegation of Indians on the streets of Washington would be a good sign, As the days begin to shorten and the time fur the opening of Congress approa ches the Indians arriveat the old beveridge. house, Third street, where they have made their headquarters ever since they first had a cause to pre sent to the 4,Great White Fa ther" and Congress. During During the session of Con gress there always from twen ty to rorty Indians in toe city transacting business with the Commissioner of In dian Affairs or lobbying lor more favorable legislation in the House or Senate. The first to arrive this year was Andrew John, of theSenecas, an Indian as familiar w i t h Washington as most Cong ressmen. He was a favorite of the late Senator Quay and has been of great benefit to the Bureau of Ethnology in securing photographs of his tribe and in repeating and in terpretinpr their legends and songs. - Following bimeame Rolling Bear of the Tuskaro ras and some Omahas, all of whom have been spending time at the Bureau of Eth nology where they have more or. less reluctantly consented to be measured and photo graphed for the records there. Two of them sppak1 English, but they walk the streets in their blank.'ts und seem to be as much interested in the sihta as they are objects of interst to the people. When a government De partment undertakestoclean house he does it, thorougly and without any penuriousre gard to what the rost may he. The Treasury Depart ment is being cleaned this ye.tr of the smoke and dust that has accumulated upon the exterior walls and for ma ny weeks workmen have been "going over it inch by inch with scrubbing brushes, scrapers and mild acids. They began on the lower sto ries and with this part white and the upper part a. dusky gray the great building has bad a chilly appearance of be ing out in its underwear.

In order that some of the "hot air" of the Legislativechambermay not return to aspixiate the mem bers all the flues' have been equipped with exhaust fans and the ventilation perfected at a cost of ten thousand dol lars. Every year for f o r t y veais the rotunda walls have been treated to a coat of paint, but Inat year Archi tect Woods of the Capitol sue ceeded in persuading Con gressmen who couldn't have told the color of the walls if their w.xt election had depen ded on it that the paint must come off. During the summer workmen have removed the forty coats of paiut and got ten down to the oiiginal brown sand stone of which the walls were constructed. The hideous chandeliers have been replaced by 19,000' in candescent lights; the picture frames have been gilded; the plumbing his been renewed, more light has been let into the Senate House, rpgardless as to whether they could stand it or not, and last but not least the Capitol has been scrubbed from top to bottom so that not a germ Iuiks about to menace the health of our law makers. : Not A Sick Day Since. 1 was taken severely sick with kianey trouble.

' ; ; 'Humanity is prone to mor alize when misfortunes strike ; not ourselves but somebody far removed from our o w n charmed circles. Thus it is that the troubles now being endured by the Czar of Rus sia furnish a theme forphilos ophers and sages who are closely allied to the "I told yod bo" class.- Still one is al most bound to study with more, or less interest, the governmental problem now being furnished by unfortu nate RusHla. Recent dispatch es lead us to believe that the Great Autocrat had finally weakened; that he sees in the person of the diplomatic Wittea power far stronger than himself, and in the for mer's speedy action the Czar apparently sees his only sal vation. "Never in the history of the Russian Empire," savs the Terrahaute Star, "has revo lution been ( so close to the Russian throne as atthepres ent time. The laboring popu lation, long ground down in the dust, is plunging head long into extreams that re semble those of the revolu tion in the time of Lnuis XVI. Although no revolu tionary organization is open ly at work, although there is no mockery of a court room, from which men of th more prosperous classes are hur ried to the guilotine, wealthy citizens, officials and the fiith ters of the Czar are daily dis appearing. The throne is still trembling. "That the Czar realizps his danger is apparent in bis tar dy recognition of S e r g i u s Witte, the strongest man in the realm, The weak, the pit i fill ruler has finally broken with the grand dukes, who have been his evil stars diis ring the troubles of his un happy reign. He has turned his back upon the bureaucra cy and has placed Wltte next to the throne. Now he is plan ning a two months visit with his royal relatives in Denmark. This lact would not he in the least remarka ble or signiBcnnt during the days of domestic tranquility. It is remarkable and signifi cant, however, to find him planning to leave at the very hour when his services should be most in demand. Th only reasonable interpretarion to be placed on this peculiar ac tion is that he fears a sucress ful revolution and proposes to get from under it," Allowing a certain margin lor the Sherlock Holmes pro pcnsities.of our contempora ry, one can still realize that the "Great White Father" is now face to face with the di lemma, of his life. His well known weaknB8 is made manifest by the fact that be, in his hour of extremity looks to Witte for the solution of he problem. Whether or nt;t the peace maker will beequal to the occasion remains to be seen.
