OCCUPIES CONSPICUOUS
SITE NEAR WHITE HOUSE
Statue Result Of Public Movement
startsd When Early Sea Fighters
Body Was Removed to This Country
appropriately Inscribed With Fa-
nous Uttsrance.

Washington, April 1.-THE unVeil-
ing Of the statute of John Paul Jones
in Potomac Park here today brought
10 a close a movement begun several
years ago to provide some appropriate
testimonial to the memory of the great
naval hero. It started when a wave Of
public interest was excited by the dis
covery in France and removal to Amer
lea Of the body Of the early sea fighter.
Much difficulty was experienced in Sc
lecting design for the memorial from
the large number of models submitted
: by famous sculptors. The choice final
J ly fell upon the design offered by
CHARLES II. Niehaus, of New York, for
a statute. A setting for the statue in
cluded fountain, pylon and APP
proaches, the whole work costing $780,
900.
Located Near White House.
The membrial Is located on the
northwest shore of the tidal basin in
Potomac Park, at the foot Of Seven
teepth street, not far from the White
House, the Pan American Union build
ing, the home of the Daughters Of the
American Revolution and other beau
tiful buildings. 1t is the first statue
to be erected within the limits Of the
first. purely naval monument to be
raised in this city since that unveiled
in memory of Admiral Dupont in 1884
The Jones memorial differs in many
respects from other similar structures

"A marble pylon of classic design as the
of the intrepid naval commander of
the early days of the republic.
The pylon is massive rectangular
tower about fifteen feet in height 1t
occupies the center of an ornamental
fountain, water for which Is supplied
from the bronze heads of dolphins, on
each side Of the pylon.
The statue OF John Paul Jones stands
at the base Of the monument in front
Of the pedestal It is of heroic proper
tions, being about ten feet high. The
great naval commander Is shown in
full uniform, with an expression and
pose suggestive of his indomitable will
and uncomfortable spirit He has been
modelled as tho watching naval en-
gagement. His right hand is clenched
and his.left hand clutches sword. AS
the sculptor put it; Here is the repre-
seatation Of man capable Of doing
almost anything. and not simply man
who cab; do only one thing.
appropriately Inscribed.
There are several appropriate in
scriptions on the memorial, suggested
by Representative Lemue1 p Padgett,
Of Tennessee, chairman OF the house
committee on naval affairs, and ap-
proved by the Jones memorial commits

County, Nd. Republican candidate for
Congress from the Sixth Congressional

Among the inconsequential charges
which wagaman makes against Blair is
that he is an aristocrat. born and raised
amidst affiuent surroundings, and so Is
not fitted to represent q community or
tillers OF the soil and persons In the
middle walks of life. Mr.. Blair points out
that his connections lean toward the
purist Republicanism and recalls to mind
the fact that his father. the late Mont
gomery Blair, was member OF the Cab
met Of a President OF the United States.
who is famous above all others as
commoner-Abraham Lincoln.
Mr.. Blair's interest has always been
close to his community at Silver Spring,
Nd, which he has long made his home.
He established the post-office there and
for seven years acted as postmaster, and
Is known throughout his county and his
district as a public spirited representa-
tive Of the people, opposed to special
and class distinction.
Mr.. Blair is a Marylander through and
through. His present home was that of
his grandfather, Francis Preston Blair,

night. Il am sure that the voters Of

PETER BOYS FOR CLARK.
Efforts Made to Carry Montsomery
County for the Speaker.

County for the Speaker.
Rockville. Nd, May 2-ConsiderabIe
excitement was created here by the
announcement that the Peter boys. as
they are commonly known, had deter
mined to champion the cause OF Champ
Clark In this county, as It was largely
through the influence of the Peters that
Senator Blair lee had so much success
In his political campaign In this county.
II was thought that Lee and the Peters
were too closely allied for any breach.
The Peters say. however, that they have
never attempted to dictate to the people
Of the county, and. finding so strong a
sentiment among their friends for Clark.
they could not AFFORD to assist in thwart-
ing the win of the people.
The fight between Wilson and Clark
in this county will no doubt be interest
ing. Senator Lees intimate friends will
no doubt follow him into the Wilson
camp. but already most of the officials Of
the county and old-time residents have
declared they will stand with the Peters.
Already the County Clerk and all four
of his deputies. States Attorney. three
ex-State's Attorneys, Sheriff. County
Treasurer and his three deputies, a
majority of the judges OF the Orphans
Court. the County Surveyor and two OF
the County Commissioners have declared
for Clark
Mr.. Clark Is a personal friend OF Ar
thur Peter. and will be in Rockville
Friday afternoon for a social visit. Mr..
Clark has declared in favor OF the Lin
coin Boulevard through Montgomery
County, which Is very popular with the
people of this county.
