report has been made by the District of
Columbia commissioners concerning
the senate bill for the extension of the
Alexandria and Falls Church Electric
railroad into Washington. Objection
is made not only to the plan OF crossing
the Potomac by ferry boat, but to the
route proposed. The commissioners
desire, says the report, that some one
of the lines already in Washington shall
reach il through "Foggy Bottom" and
they suggest that suitable connection
might then be arranged with the Falls
Cuurch line. AS to crossing the river,
it is suggested the Aqueduct bridge
might be widened and strengthened
and the line permitted to cross by that

Our Democratic friends who are
going about the county making
speeches, are promising the old SOL
diers that ifthey votefor Bryan their
pensions will be taken care of under
a Democratic administration as
we'll as they possibly could be uu-
der a Republican administration.
The old soldier heard that kind of
talk previous to the election of
Cleveland in 1892 andthe record of
Cleveland's administration relating
to the treatment of the union vet
Grams is a shame that will never
be blotted out in the minds of those
who suffered by it. 1t was as late
as 1894 that the old soldiers in this
county were stigmatized as ''pen-
sion paupers" by the local Demo-
cratic paper, which Is now pat
ting them on the back and trying
to secure their votes for Bryan and
the rest of the Democratic candi-
dates:

Paying the StAte Debt.

The plunderer's apologists are
now hasting about how the State
debt is being reduced. The fig
ures they give show that the debt
has been reduced fren IS. 900, 600
ON January /. 1897, to 81, 100000
on the 6rst of October, 1900
which means an average annual
payment Of $500, 600.
That debt when the Democrats
took control was $40, ,SS9, 900. and
the State held claim against the
Hannibal & st. Joseph raiIrsmd-
IN interest bearing claim on which
the Democrats collected, exclusive e
of interest, So, ,467. 049; also there
we're interest bearing Scl,hl and
Seminary funds, drawing the same
rate Of interest, from which the
Democrats have taken s., 483, ,S69.
Deducting those assets leaves net
debt of $13, ,92s, ,OS2. Now the. debt
is, including the School and Semi
nary "Certi6ca.esof Indebtedness, .
on which the taxpayers put up 'the
annual interest, $e.l93, $50; there
fore the entire reduction Of the
State debt to compensate the peo-
pie for more than ftEty millions o1
dollars of tax money is 81, ,735, ,213,
an annual average Of &257, $40.
Since the exposure began in the
Republican Headlight the reduc-
tions in the Suite rdelt have gone
up more than n half million dollars
a year. Don't that show that the
