The burdock is weed that is exter-
minated with difficulty, as the plant
produces great many seeds and they
remain i'll the soil for years, ready to
grow as soon as conditions are favor
able. II the plant is cut off below the
ground and handful of salt thrown
on the root the plant will soon die, as
the root is soft and the salt rots it.

A studied Demonstration.

"St Is nonsense" exclaimed Mr..
Meekton. "for anybody to assert that
| don't dare say my soul Is my own"
He glared defiantly. and continued:
81 do say 1t. My soul is my own
There! hope that is perfectly in
telligible and satisfactory"
"What's the matterY" inquired
friend
'T'm doing this to please Henrietta"
answered Mr.. Meekton, quieting down
to confidential tone. "If you get an
opportunity, just let her know what
I've been saying. Somebody told her
didn't dare say my soul was my own,
and 1t made her so wildly indignant
that thought ought to do something
to pacify her. r."-Washington Star.

GERMANS STANDING FIRM.
They Supported Lincoln Once as They

They Supported Lincoln Once as They
support Mckinley Now.
Mr.. Bryan has opened Pandora
hox in quoting so profusely from Lin
coin. Not only was Lincoln arraigned
by the Democrats in 1864 as acting
the part of an emperor and Sitting en-
throned i'll the White House. but he
was denounced specifically as Mckin-
ley is now for violating the Declara-
tion of Independence and governing
without the consent of the governed;
and as ii to make the parallel absolute
ly complete, there was also deter
mined movement i'll 1864 to turn the
German Republicans against Lincoln.
Lincoln, OF course, could only expect
the denunciation of the copperheads
who thought the consent of the gov
erned doctrine forbade the suppression
of the rebellion. The unkindest cut of
all was that Republicans should go off
into opposition against him, but there

held "liberty convention" and nomi-
mated Fremont, because forsooth, Lin
coin was not 3, good enough Repub-
lican for them. This was bad enough.
but there are always some cranks, eX-
tremists and malcUntenUs. The worst
detection threatened-the one most
trying to Lincoln and his supporters
was one projected in the name OF the
German Republicans.
As late in the campaign as Septem-
ber 2l, Horace Greedy said in the New
York Tribune:
'Until short time ago it seemed AZ
though nearly the entire vote controlled
by the German National clubs would
be lost TO the Republican party"
But the keen sighted Greedy now saw
how the Germans had been misrepre-
sented. He now made bold to predict
that Lincoln would get an overwhelm-
ingy majority OF German voters and u
few weeks later in November, that
prophesy was made good. The men
who predicted a great German defec-
| tion from Lincoln had reckoned with.
| out their host. The Germans instead
Of being carried off ON tangent had
coolly and calmly reviewed the situa-
ton. They saw the folly and fraud i'll
the cry Of imperialism against Lincoln
and the preposteIous dogmas about the
consent OF the governed and the Declar-
alton of Independence. They dis
missed the utter folly, the charge of
Lincoln Sitting enthroned at the
White House" and setting himself up
as an emperor. They rallied to Lin
coins support in November, and in
deed it is to he said that without the
help they gave, Lincoln could not have
been reelected. lie had no truer or

SUBMITS ANNUAL REPORT
REVIEW BY PRESIDENT SMITH OF
EAST WASHINGTON ASSOCIATION.
Removal of Jail and other Institu-
tions Discussed Reports of Com
mittees-OmcerS Reelected.

At meeting of the East Washington
Citizens Association. held at Baum's Hall
last night Mr. Thomas w. Smith. president
of the association, presented his annual re-
port. The meeting was the first to be held
since last spring.
Mr.. Smith reviewed at length the work of
the association and congratulated its mem
bers upon the selection of one of its num-
Der. Mr.. A. T. Stuart, to manage the pub
lie schools OF the city, He spoke of the
matters affecting East Washington that
Congress had acted upon, one OF them be-
ing bill providing for the extension of the
Capital Traction line east 10 the Pennsyl-
vania avenue bridge.
While he criticised the action of the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company for taking 50
much of Garfield Park. Mr.. Smith thought
the railroads conduct could be excused IL
the grade crossings are abolished He ad-
vocated the erection Of a United States
Supreme Court building and hoped for an
early reclamation of the Anacostia flats.
The question Of removal of the jail and
other institutions from East Washington
came up again, and resolutions were adopt
ed to the effect that il is the sense of this
association that the continued occupancy Of
a portion of the territory of the southeast
quarter of the city of Washington by the
jail and other correctional Institutions IS
detrimental and threatening to its develop
ment and prosperity.
THAT the residential area of this portion
of the city has been so vigorously extended
during the past ten years that it has now
reached a limit in such proximity to the
objectionable features of these institutions
that its further progress is hndered and
the advancement of the values of real es-
tate prevented.
That the citizens of East Washington
demand to he relieved of this incubus by
its removal outside of the city limits
That We oppose and protest against the
appropriation expenditure of any more
money looking to the perpetua ton of these
institutions in their present locality"
Streets, Avenues and Alleys.
Mr.. Girouard, chairman of the committee
on streets. avenues and alleys. also made a
report, giving the number OF streets in
need of improvement and repeating former
report says:
The committee thinks that now is the
proper time to consider some other system
of apportionment of appropriations for inn
provement of streets. Endorsement is given
to the recommendations made in 1896 by
Thomas w. Smith. then chairman OF the
committee. of taking the center of popula-
from that center, improving the streets
within circles, until all the streets In the
city Of Washington are improved
Officers Reelected.
Mr. NJ l. Weller. chairman Of the public
conveyance committee. also submitted a re-
port showing the improvements made by
the local electric companies during the past
year.
The annual election of officers took place
and the incumbents were reelected as fol-
lows: Thomas w Smith, president: Tracy
l.. Jefords. vice president; A. F. Sperry,
secretary. and 3. W. Clark, treasurer
