District Suffrage
Meeting Wednesday

The downpour last night prevented
Dr. Thomas VIII driving home few more
arguments before Pennsylvania avenue
crowds in favor of suffrage and self
government for the District, but this
was only an incidental interruption of
the campaign, as meeting will be held
in the Ouray building Wednesday night,
at which plans will be made for obtain
ing additional speakers, providing
means of taking them from place to
place and arranging meetings in diff
ferent parts of the city.
1t Is believed that enough interest will
be created in Washington to cause the
formation Of local self-goverhment as
sociations. This will facilitate the work
Of the .sgitators. They hope when the
city itself is thoroughly organized and
shows conclusively that it is in earnest
that the word will then go forth to the
country that the District of Columbia
wants the same measure of independ-
ence that all other parts OF the country
enjoy.
The aim of DR.. Will and his friends
Is practical State sovereignty for the
District, with representatives, able both
to vote and talk. in both branches of
Congress.
