10 Senate and House OF Representatives in Congress

We, the undersigned citizens of the United States
do most earnestly urge the speedy passage Of bill to
provide for national uark along Rock creek, in the
District of Columbia, and for the following reasons:
First Because the acquisition of property for such
purpose would benefit the whole country, and such
park would be visited by hundreds of thousands of
tourists from all sections of the United and
from abroad.
second washington, the rapidly-growine cspital
city of this republic should have for local healthfu-
ness and pleasure, the use OF this most picturesque
Third. The necessary land can now be purchased at
comparatively low price, as it is held by but few
owners.
Fourth. Any delay will result in largely-increasing
cost az the land will soon be subdivided and acquire
speculative value.
