Broadway n. E. Church, South.
This church was organized by
Rev, L. H. Stuckey, pastor,
assisted by Rev N. F. Law. in
the fall of 1888. The member
ship at the organization was
twenty-seven. The place of
worship was Kings college.
In May 1889 the foundation OF
the present building on Broad
way was laid. Rev.L. FL. Stuckey
remained one year as pastor and
was succeeded by Rev. N. F.
Law, who remained one year.
At the close of this year the
membership had increased to
III. and paid the pastor $500.
Rev. N. F. Law was succeeded
by Rev. J. o. Shanks, who died
during the year Rev. Strange
filled out the year Rev. l.. w.
Rivers was the next pastor; he
remained one year and was sue
ceeded by Rev. F. Naylor, who
remained one year and was sue
ceeded by Rev. N. F. Law, who
renamed one~year as pastor the
second time. He was succeeded
by Rev. A. T. Galloway, who re-
mained but one year. The next
pastor was Rev. A. J. Worley,
who remained two years and
was succeeded by Rev. J. M.
Gross, the present pastor, who
has served two years and is now
serving the third. The church
has had a healthy growth all
these years, and now has a
membership of $50. There is a
good Sunday school, two Ep-
worth Leagues, with a Woman S
Home Mission Society. and a
Woman S Foreign Mission So
ciety, which are both doing fine
work.

meet. They were accompanied by Trainer
Bill" Foley, who will look after the affairs
of the trip and keep the runners in trim for
their various contests.
This is the first important trip of the year
for the college athletes. and the outcome is
eagerly awaited by the student body, who
expect that the representation sent will
bring Georgetown to the fore in most of the
eI ents in which they will participate. The
work of the relay team against Harvard
will particularly be watched with the great
est interest, as this will be its initial per-
Torrance. 1t is confidently hoped that it
will demonstrate on this first appearance
that Georgetowns team Is to be classed
second to none this season.
The team will have a worthy opponent, as
Harvard is to be represented by the pick of
its Quarter-milers, who will constitute
team that is estimated to be one of the best
in the country. If Georgetown wins this
race it will have the best of chances against
the other crack teams Of the country at the
Georgetown indoor meet at Convention
Hail. February II, and it may be expected
that the athletic supremacy of the east for
the indoor season will come to Washington.
The team selected by Trainer Foley to
represent Georgetown in Boston is COM
posed of Mulligan, Holland, Dessez. Herman
and Sheridan. The latter will probably be
saved for the SS0-yard and mile runs, 1eay-
Ing the mile relay to be run by the four
former. Each of these men can do the
quarter in less than 81 As seconds, SO that
it may be considered that the athletic
judges at the college are justified in claim
ing that Georgetown's athletic reputation
will this year mainly rest upon the work of
her relay team.
The prospects for victory for Duffey are.
of course very bright, as there is scarcely
at present in the country any known run
ner who can defeat him in the sprints.
Duffeys work, the chances for triumph
for the relay team and the elaborate prepa-
rations on foot for the indoor meet have
aroused interest in athletics at the college
to a pitch of enthusiasm rarely equaled.
This was strikingly manifested this morn
ing upon the departure Of the team. AS
they left the main building they found the
student body gathered in force to give them
a right royal send-off The runners were
surrounded and cheered to the echo and
they passed through the college gates amid
DC afening ''hoyas," and various yells for
the Individual champions.
The college boys and their numerous SYM
pathizers will eagerly watch for the returns
from the meet tomorrow night, and will be
re dy to celebrate gloriously in case the ex
pected victory maSerializes.

No Charter or ordinance provision
compels reference Of franchise measures

The public interest would none the less
be conserved by taking the expert opin-
ion Of the Board OF Public Improve

fornity, but most of the members con-

REASON AND ENTHUSIASM,

Il never saw greater enthusiasm for
any candidate than was aroused in the
Kansas City convention for Bryan e1-
cept in the Chicago convention of 1854
for Blaine. Candidates who arouse the
wild enthusiasm Of the populace in con-
yentions or ON the stump are seldom
good vote winners however" says n con-
vention habitue fresh from the Kansas
City gathering.
There is no doubt that votes in a
presidential campaign are decided as
much on the issues as on the candidates.
Properly SO. A candidate, let him work
as hard as he will, can reach only a
small portion Of the country In the
limited time available to the campaign.
Even then the enthusiasm aroused by
his personality must bear the test of
reasonable examination In quiet If it
shall bear fruit in votes. II the prin-
ciples for which the candidate stands
will bear such an examination he will
get the votes.
The enthusiasm at the Kansas City
convention was aroused equally by the
candidate and by the principles en-
bodied In the platform. Those prin-
cipies will bear the light of examination.
Opposition to changing the United
States into an empire, opposition to the
maintenance Of large standing army
which an tmperialisic policy makes
necessary, opposition to the trusts and
TO the policy Of protection which has
given birth TO majority Of the trusts
meet the view Of every reasoning Ameri-
can.
A candidates magnetic personality,
which is responsible for enthusiastic
outbreaks, cannot ut any time be re-
garded as handicap. Popular enthusi-
assn is valuable and when well founded
it lasts. The enthusiasm for Bryan has
such a foundation. 1t will grow steadily
until November.

AT so MUCH A WORD.

1t is somewhat characteristic Of the
generally sordid atmosphere prevailing
in the Philadelphia convention that no.
body has refuted the story to the effect
that fee" OF 5000 was paid for the
substitution Of the word ''isthmian" in
place Of the word Nicaragua" In the
interoceanic canal plank of the Republic
an national platform.
This notable change from the plank
adopted by the Republican National
Convention In 1896. which favored by
name the construction of the Nicaragua
Canal. is. Of course, favorable to the in
terests Of the Panama Canal enterprise,
for which effective work has been done
by powerful lobby during the past few
months. The new promoters Of the lat
ter project have striven with all their
might TO secure the use Of this word
''isthmian" rather than the direct in
dorsement Of the Nicaragua Canal by
the Republican platform of 1900
And, having prevailed, the story of
the potency Of $1,000 "fee" is now
brought forward to account for the
Panama peoples victory. The impress
sion seems to be common that money
was the only thing that talked In the
Philadelphia convention. The national
platform adopted was not a declaration
OF principle SO much as a declaration for
loot. Why shouldn't 5000 prove suf-
ficient to brins about the change of one
word in such n platform? The question
apparently commends itself to the public
mind as entirely pertinent

HYPOCRISY.

The meaningless phrase In the Re-
publican platform. I'VE renew our faith
in the policy of protection TO American
labor" is not there without q purpose.
1t is bid for the vote of the man who
Is inclined TO burrah whenever he hears
the word labor" and who follows blind
ly the politician who declares himself TO
be 4 friend of the nottingham: This
class is small and is becoming smaller.
A little consideration will show how
meaningless is the phrase. The Re
publican policy Of protection is q tariff
policy. BY taxing foreign products i'm
ported into the United States it gives the
American manufacturer an advantage in
the markets of the United States. The
American manufacturer has used this
advantage to form trusts and to raise
the price of his product to consumers
without regard to cost of production.
The scale Of wages paid to the work
ingman in the protected industries is in
10 way affected by the protective tariff.
The manufacturer pays as low a scale Of
wages as will suffice to secure the labor
he needs. He would have TO pay the
edi1it SCdit NuelNtI NE hdS DTOitClSu OF
not, because he could not get the labor
he needs for less.
The protection therefore operates only
to increase his profits by keeping out
foreign competition. The person who
consumes his product, the workinSman
among others, is obliged TO pay the
higher price which the tariff enables the
manufacturer to impose. When, in addi-
ton to the profit given him by the tariff,
the manufacturer avails himself of com
bination into trusts, the oppression of
the consumer is CALLING.
The protection OF American labor
which the tariff has given is shown by
the throwing out of employment OF thou-
sands of travelling statesmen and of addi-
tional thousands OF workingmen who
We're employed by the small manufactur-
ers whom the trusts threw out OF bust
ness. The closing of the glass works at
Crystal City is home example.
The speclous phrase in the platform
will hardly accomplish the object at
which il aims. Americans are not dunn
mics who think with their ears They
will analyze the phrase and the analysis
will not be 10 the advantage OF the men
who use it
