Speeches for Mckinley. Roosevelt and
Pearre 0t Remington.

The first public meeting of the Mckinley,
Roosevelt and Pearre Club Of Kensington,
Nd. was held last evening in the town hall.
There was standing room only, and a hearty
reception was given the speakers. The CO.
lumbia Orchestra Of Washington, D. c.,
rendered some very excellent selections, and
a sextet, accompanying the Takoma Park
Club contributed campaign songs, Mr.. Guy
v. Collins of Washington, D. c., entertained
the audience with a selection, entitled "A
Country Politician" and other character
selections.
Mr. Cornelius w. Clum. mayor of Ken
sington, and president of the club. presided
and introduced as the speakers Of the even
ing Messrs. B. H. Warner, Ashley M. Gould,
Mckission of North Carolina and Irvine
DUNCAN, a democratic representative from
Ohio in the Fifty-second Congress. The
speakers were enthusiastically applauded,
the two well-known gentlemen who reside
In the county dividing honors with the
visitors
Among the arguments advanced by Mr..
DUNCAN was one in response to the claim
made that the silver issue is dead.
'Since 1873" said he. Il have been in
favor of silver, and wrote and spoke for
Bryan in 1896 on that question; but the new
discoveries of gold, with wars and short
crops abroad, seems to have solved the diff
ficulty, SO that to destroy business conf
dence that prevails now, by breaking down
the present gold standard, seems to me to
be the very worst thing to do. Those who
believe with Carl SChurZ ana are crawl
ing back into the Bryan camp assure the
people that silver is dead issue, and that
McKinley's administration has secured such
that not even Bryan can shake 1t.
WE'LL Bryan is an earnest man, and he did
not demand a new, direct declaration for
immediate free silver for fun. Some gold
democrats tell you there Is no danger, that
Bryan can't do what he wishes. But what
could Bryan do to break down the worlds
confidence in America holding to the gold
standard? Suppose, in emergency like
that Of a world war over China, not so
unlikely now as war was two years ago. the
United States shall find 1t necessary to bor-
rcw money, as the last democratic adminis-
tratior had to do in time Of peace. In
that case, would Congress pass a BILL au-
thorizing the floating of loan of two
hundred million gold bonds. Would not
Bryan veto that bill? And would a Con-
gress likely TO be elected in case Bryan is
successful at the polls-would such Con-
gress pass the bill over veto? Certainly
not. Bryan would coerce Congress as he
Gid the Kansas City convention"
The next public meeting of the club will
be held Monday evening, September "a. In
the town hall. at which time Il Is expected
that among the speakers Representative
Pearre and Mr.. II. Clay Evans. commission
e. of pensions, will deliver addresses.

Now, isn't that like Chcagoe Ont there they

AS matter OF fact, the term originated in Lon

the East End beer swillers In drawing beer kegs
into buckets and taking the buckets into den.
where they would pass the bucket from hand TO
hand while gambling. Their den came to be
known as a bucket shop, place where small gam

The Government Buildings.

The government buildings located as pro-
posed would each be in park detached
from the others, surrounded by grounds,
thus giving an opportunity for all to view
them and their approaches. This method
would also give light and air to the occu-
pants and at the same time afford pleasing
views to the workers within. The buildings
would be near enough together to allow of
quick communication and transportati ton
between one department and another. 1t Is
suggested that all buildings should be low
and classical in design, to harmonic with
the Capitol and Executive Mansion.
Although the proposed scheme would not
interfere with the National Museum, Med
ical Bureau, the Agricultural Department
and the new post office, it is felt that in any
artistic groupings these structures would
have no place and that they would eventu-
ally be removed.
Several streets on which electric cars run
and which are used principally for traffic
must pass through the park. To cut off
these disagreeable features 1T would be
necessary to raise the boulevard slightly
and lower the streets little at the points
of crossing. AT the points where the bouIe-
ward would cross this could be ACCOMPLISHED
without great difficulty 1t would then be
an easy matter to screen the view of such
streets by low walls and close planting of
trees and bushes, as has been suggested in
the plan shown.
The tidal reservoir, which is now located
on the reclaimed ground, would be turned
into formal basin, treated on three
sides with balustrade. In the northern
portion could be placed a large group of
| fountains and statuary while the smaller
| basin could be treated in a classical design
with steps and platform, which for six
months in the year could be used as a
| swimming pool and in the winter as a skat-
| ing park.
Railroads Across the MALL
| One of the most difficult problems in the
| artistic treatment of the mall consists in
| the fact that the Pennsylvania raj. road,
| with its numerous tracks. runs through the
grounds on 9Th street. 1t appears to be use-

the colt lunged forward and then fell
on the tongue of the wagon, breaking

in the store property occupied by
Thomas Attix, on Christmas Eve about
1890 O'Clock Monday night, which but
for the active work of the fire depart
ment might have resulted in a fearful
confagration. The fire originated
from a stove in Mr.. Attix store which
had been left closed, and through the
pipe had caught in the partition be-
tween his store and the office of the
Adams Express Company. The great
est damage was done in putting out
the fire with water. Besides the burn
ing of the partition and portion of the
roof, the building was saved. The
loss is said to be probably covered by
an insurance of $3.50.
