Wants Congregational Representation.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
1t would be pitiful that any agitation for
municipal suffrage, however we'll meant or
conducted, should obscure or obstruct the
greater question of District representation
in the two houses of Congress. That were
thing We should all value; all be Willing
to work for together; a thing for which the
local press could and would thunder day
by day, till the popular sense of propriety
and justice throughout the country should
be awakened. The trainers of the Constitu-
ton were not omniscient; they are pardon
able for not foreseeing the future of the
Federal District, for the creation of which
they provided so fully and clearly as to
adapt their scheme of legislative represen-
tation to conditions entirely contectural at
that time. Still. they did not wholly
neglect US, for they provided a way by
which their handiwork might be altered or
improved, as occasion might demand
III We may not compare Washington with
such capitals as London, Paris, Berlin,
Vienna or Rome. we may, at least, with
Brussels, Lisbon, Madrid, Stockholm or
Ottawa; all represented in their national
parliaments, and not to be deprived Of that
representation, with their consent, even If
the alternative were to see their several
governments pack up, bag and baggage and
fix the capitals elsewhere. Moreover-and
that is matter directly in point here
neither the peoples nor the statesmen of
the countries indicated would think of
keeping the Inhabitants of their capital
cities unrepresented and voiceless in the
parliaments.
Before parting with the subject let me re-
mind my fellow-disfranchees that we need
not wait for a constitutional amendment
before enjoying substantial measure Of
congressional representation. A mere act
Of Congress would suffice to admit a dele
gate to the Senate and two to the House of
Representatives, with all privileges except
that of voting. Is not this worth aRitating ?
Would not the rest follow?

MONEY FOR MISSIONS.

What is Proposed to he Raised by the
MethOdists.
There was a meeting yesterday afternoon
at the Foundry NJ. E. Church Of the pas
tors Of the city Methodist churches, the
Sunday school superintendents and a few
of the Sunday school teachers. Bishop
Hurst presided and Chaplain McCabe made
Of the coming year of raising money for
missionary purposes. He said that there
was debt on the missionary society of
the church of about $4,000, and he was
confident that this deficit would be made
up during the year. The board of missions
at a recent meeting had decided to ask for
a million and half dollars for the coming
year. He said that he was entering upon
the work of securing that amount with
more hope of success than he had few
years ago. when 1t was decided to bring
the mission contributions up to the Million
dollar mark. He said that IL every men,
Der of the Methodist Church would agree
to contribute rs cents each week to
the support of the church $32 800 900
would be secured He said that the Dis
trict last year gave $S,612 and this year
they ought to give at least $4,000 He
asked each of the pastors present to state
what amount they could give in excess of
last years contributions, and as they
gave in their pledges it was found that the
total reached nearly the amount named BY
Mr.. McCabe.
Rev. Mr.. Burt, who for eight years past
mas been missionary in Rome where the
Methodist Church has a mission gave an
account of his work and the progress that
had been made.
