she so we'll defended. The Star is glad to
note this increasing tendency 10 regard
Washington as the appropriate repository
of such things as the ship Constitution.
The proposition to create within her walls
a naval museum that will represent the

way a most interesting institution, at

on succeeding days until Monday, when the
vote will be taken. The proposition of this

amounting TO between one hundred and
two hundred million dollars shall he viewed
paid and cancelled if the roads will
merely pay in interest and sinking fund
installments combined less than = per cent
annually or that principal for 81 years
In other words, Uncle Sam is to say to the

owe me for nearly century and will pay
me meanwhile less annual interest on the
debt than l am compelled myself to pay for
what / borrow. then 1 will cancel the prin-
