property at Thirty-ffth street needed
for the abutment.
Proceedings will be begun immedi-
ately. as work is to commence there
| 1t will also be necessary to take a
corner OF of the lot at Thirty-fifth
and Water streets. From there the
approach curves through the block be-
tween Water and NJ, Thirty-fourth
and Thirty-fifth streets.
Original plans called for taking all
of the frontage of this block on NJ
street, giving a broad plaza approach,
with direct lines to Thirty-fifth as
we'll as Thirty-fOurth streets.
The bridge is to have FIVE main
spans. The center one is 20S feet wide,
the next two 204 feet wide. and the
outside ones 1S6 feet wide. In ad-
dition there will be a narrower span
over Water street, and a still shorter
one over the Chesapeake and Ohio
canal.
No Interruption to Service.
The Aqueduct bridge will be left
standing and in operation untouched
until the new bridge is ready for SER
vice. There will thus be no Interrupt
tion to communication.
All details Of the present plans have
been finally approved. Actual opera
tions will begin as soon as Secretary
Baker signs and approves the speci-
fications which are now before him.
The bridge design from a structural
standpoint is similar to that of the
Q street and the Connecticut avenue
structures, with open arches in each
of the spans. These arches give
architectural effect and tighten the
cost, by using less concrete, without
impairing the strength orSpermanence
of the structure.
Plans for the bridge had been In
controversy for nearly a year, be-
cause Of the desire for a broad
boulevard structure that would meet
all future needs. and the limitations
of cost placed by Congress. Many
sets of drawings were made before
the present bridge was decided on.
Unqualified Approval.
The new structure has met the un-
qualified approval <f officers and
committees of the Georgetown Citi-
zens' Association, which has fostered
the bridge construction, and which

can see by the campaign of picketing
which was persevered in at the gates
OF the White House.
Ii he SO desired, President Wilson
can not give them the ballot; and the
attempt to force him into a recon-
mendation of their demands is child
iSh and deserving of ridicule.
We believe in equal enfranchise-
ment OF the men and women OF the
country and the equal treatment of
both. We do not believe there is
any reason why because they make
these public and annoying displays
that they should be given any thing
they ask for. In fact we believe con
sreSs should tell them that until they
go home and learn how to act like
women should, they need expect no
attention to their demands.
We have seen something of the
manner IN which the women of this
state demanding the ballot have been
able to conduct their campaigns, how
they have had discord at all times,
how the would be leaders have insist
ed each on her personal rights until
as one of them herself expressed it,
An impasse has arisen"
From all we can learn, the warning
clement of the National Suffrage
party of women has much to learn;
and we suggest that the reasoning
part of the party, the levelheaded,
and the sane, take some action to
relieve the party Of this bunch which
thinks that because they are women,
is an all sufficient reason for demand
ing anything they wish, when they
wish, and as they wish it.
AS we remarked before, We believe
in the right of women to the ballot;
but we want to see it dignified by
them, not sought through series of
serio-tragic comedies of errors.

WOMAN'S PARTY AND CONGRESS,


We regret to see the intimation in
dispatches that the women Of the
country belonging to the Equal Fran
chise party are preparing to give con
&ress a constant reminder in different
ways OF what it deems congress
should do for the women's party.
The womanhood of the country has
been too loyal, too level-headed and
too patriotic in the past to attempt
at this time to hamper the country
when war is ravaging its coasts and
taking from its every section tn !
men of the land The women OF the
country should be lending aid to the
government and most of the marc
lending this aid. 1t is only a small
part Of the womanhood that is max
ing these unpleasant demonstrations
and keeping in disrepute the very
cause they believe they are aiding.
When these women realize the i'm
portance Of a little political sacrifice
at certain strenuous times, they Will
have learned great lesson in the
study Of political battles and victories
There is not a man in political cDun-
ellis OF great parties who has not al
times seen the wisdom OF a graceful
retiring for the present, in order that
MS cause may not be hurt N the eyes
Of those whom he hoped and expect
ed to win to his way Of thinking.
The suffragettes Of this country had
better learn q lesso nfrom their mill
tant British sisters, whose campaign
of strife, bitterness and property dam
age has done more to set back the
cause of England than years of sac
rificing by the more leVei-h6aded cali
Offset in the future.
That th1re will be continued dem
onstrations in the halls Of CONGRESS-
as long as they are permitted, is prob
able; and we must say that except
for the spectacular effect nothing il
gained by such stunts as unfurlipG
from the galleries banners with semi
insulting demands and notices.

those abroad, are to be given the priv
ilege of attending political gatherings

Secretary Baker in announcing this
shows that he believes the soldier is
none the less a citizen because he is
uniformed and armed with a gun,
than when he is 'overaued" and arm
ed with a hoe.
The statement goes still further and
says that soldiers from those states
where the legislatures have made pro

citizen soldier may be on duty, will
be permitted to be cast in the usual
manner and transmitted to their re-
spective states for tabulation, etc.

all the more praiseWorthy.
The time has never yet come when
Americans have sent out their boys
to fight for home and liberty and then
cut off their supply Of food, NUM-
tions, clothing and what comforts
could be gotten out on the battle front
to them
The time never will come when this
country will call in vain for the help
that only it's inhabitants can give.
We must make sacrifices if neces-
sary; and it may be necessary for all
of us to give until we feel it, But
even then we will not be giving one
tenth of what those Of our flesh and
blood on the battlefields are giving.
Subscription to this bond issue must
come cheerfully and promptly. The

mot? Yes, it is applicable to US now
and may be uttered by the lips of the
creator against dastardly refusals to do
our duty in war that may be precipitat-
ed upon US, or deceitful and negligent
discharge Of such duties. 1t is a
curse against cowardice and treachery
and is in force under the peacable dis
pensation Of the gospel.
Cowardice and treachery are as
odious now as ever, and there is abun-
dance of it abroad to day. Like the
artillery of heaven this denunciation is
hurled against the coward, who, when
God in his providence calls to arms,
consults his own ease and safety more
than duty to God and country.
The coward deserves and receives the
excavations of his fellow men and of
heaven. Is it any wonder that the
stringent disciplin of military tactis
condemn punishment on the deserter
and coward, when God pronounces His
curse upon him. Every soldier knows
that there is species OF cowardice
which though it does not manifest it's
self by desertion of the post, yet is
more or less dangerous.
Though not so fragrant it is detestible
and deleterious in its effects. 1t is
subtle, permeating, abominable. 1t
enables man to keep up the pretenses
of good soldier. He engages in his
work, but Is in reality sly hypocritical
coward, who does his work deceitfully.
These are the kind who are soldiers,
not because they want to do their duty
and serve their God, and save their
country. but that they may have an
easy time and indulge themselves in
idleness and make their money at the
public expense. You will find such in
the rank and file OF the great army en-
gagged in the warfare of life. MY pur-
pose is to draw some lessons from this
occasion and to use the present circum-
stances as basis for suggesting few
practical thoughts, and giving some
warnings to all.
For the present we will rest here.
