Location Of the Union Depot.

all things considered. for the new
union depot. but as private citizen OF
more than fifty years residence in the
National Capital, venture to give ex-
preston to my own convictions on
TINS subject. even though | fully realize
that they will doubtless have no weight
whatever either with the railroad com
pany or our legislators. But can at
least relieve my mind, and to that ex-
tent, at least, my responsibility as a citi-
zen in this matter
In my opinion it should be located cast

facing the proposed park reservation.
preferably near to Seventh Street. Thus
located it would be as convenient to the
travelling public as the proposed Massa-
chusetts Avenue site. and would save mil
lions of dollars expenditure that would be
involved in the building of the elevated
roadway approach into the city from the
northeast. and the tunnel under Capitol
Hill, between the Capitol and the Library
damage done to the property lying along
and in the vicinity of the proposed en-
bankment. 1t goes without saying that
property would be greatly enhanced in
value in the northeast section on the
line, and east of the roadway. if the
tracks were entirely removed whereas
the property in the other section referred
to would not be injured. for the reason
that the southern connections will neces-
state the continuance of the roadway in
any event through this section, but as
the roadbeds could all be depressed be-
low grade west of the Capitol. the street
crossings north and south could all be
bridged over on the present grade level.
or nearly so. l say. locate it Immediately
south of Maryland Avenue and east of
Seventh Street west. Why not?

An Appeal for Pure Food.

Because he has taken such lively in
terest in pure food legislation, Repre-
sentative Sulzer of New York is regarded
by the advocates of pure food as their
especial champion, and they constantly
write him and give him the benefit Of
their ideas and suggestions as to what
Congress ought TO 90 to protect the in
nocent consumer against the unscrupulous
dealers in adulterated food.
Among the many letters received yes
terday by Representative Sulzer was one
from NJ. E. Christine Lurnsdon, presi-
dent of the Health Culture Club. Presi-
dent Lumsdon says:
THE whole country remembers the
evidence collected of the widespread
adulteration of food. with open mouthed
horror at the terrible revelations in the
summer just before the last Presidential
election, when the Senate committee was
actively at work going from city to city.
In the sitting of the committee in New
York City, even prominent brewers advo-
Gated the passage of a national bill for
pure beer. Emanating from the dignified
Senate of these United States. it could
not be a blindfolded game.
But what are we still taking into our
mouths? Life-destroying clements that
disarrange and poison our systems and
promote Bright's disease with all kinds OF
diseases of the liver and Kidneys Wake
up TO see and gasp at the horrors of the
situation, but the remedy? What? When?
.Throbbing life goes on more feebly;

ward. a prominent citizen of Stafford, at

The new arrangement is by no means
to the liking of Hon. y. A Jones, the
present Representative from the First
district. The two counties that have been
given to him are good for Loco Repub-
lican majority any time. A large number
of colored voters inhabit them. These
are strongly inclined to the Republican
party. and cogent arguments must be
used to win them to the Democratic

be able to persuade them in that way.

Trust. There had been much talk of the
proposed tax en- colored oleomargarine
during the day Senator Bacon began:
The Senator represents constituency

company had been organized somewhere

was 10 he the catching of catfish. color

canning it, and selling it as salmon. |

or not he would favor a tax Of 10 per cent
On that industry in order 10 protect the

Mr. Mitchell: 4 suppose they are
cooked in cotton seed oil?"
Mr. Bacon went on to say that the Sen
ator proposed TO quote from a newspaper.
and that he could state with the utmost
sincerity that his fish story had appeared
in a newspaper.
He did not prevent Mr.. Mitchell from
having his attack on the Beef Trust

Secretary Wilson's Popularity.

The Democrats in Congress are the
stanch friends of the Agricultural De-
partment and of Secretary Wilson.
Against all other departments and all
other Cabinet officers they exhibit the
natural party hostility, to a greater or
less degree, but they are even more
friendly to Secretary Wilson's farms and
experiment stations and seed distribu-
tions than the Republicans Where the
Republicans hesitate sometimes the
Democrats are willing to go further in
appropriations even than the department
asks.
This friendliness on the part of the
minority is, of course, gratifying, but 1t
has its embarrassments and disadVan-
tages, too The minority has not much
power and the Republicans are. perhaps.

AS the State portfolio is the most i'm

the Secretary of State to give the first Of
the series of annual dinners given by the
Cabinet officers in honor of the Chief
Magistrate and his wife.
This custom omitted this winter
owing to the fact that the family of the
Secretary of State are in deep mourning

Yields she to prayer or to cry?
Answers she early or late?
Change and rebirth and decay,
Dawning and darkness and light
Creatures they are of u day,
Lost in pitiless night.
Men are like children who play
Unknown by an unknown sea;
Centuries vanish away:
She waits-the eternal She,
Nay: but the Gods are afraid
Of the hoary Mothers nod;
They are of things that are made,
She the original God.
They have seen dynasties fall
In ruin of what has been;
Her no upheavals appall-
