City of Washington, the gem OF the
diadem of patriotic America. 1t all
goes to show that the locus OF Congress
should have nothing whatever to do
with the merits of representation OF
the District of Columbia in the halls
of Congress"
Declaring that for 81 years the As
sociation Of Oldest Inhabitants had
stood like Rock Of Gibraltar Tor the
highest ideals of American patriotism"
Mr.. Emery declared, Il think voice

I say the District of Columbia is no

public charges who came hither to be-
ccne Souatters without visible or pros
pective means OF support and 10 in

Quotes Washington C.i.-t-sm.
The speaker quoted from President
WaShington's criticism of the "Pennsyl-
vania mutineers" of $50 years ago:
While l suffer the most poignant
distress" Washington had said, in OBJ
serving that a handful of men, con-
tenptible in numbers and equally so in
poi1it of service Cf the veteran troops
from the southwark have not been Sc
duced by their eXample) and who are
ret worthy to be called soldiers, should
disgrace themselves and their country
as Lne pennsylvania mutineers have
done by insulting the sovereign author
itv of the United States, and that OF
their own, feel an ineXpreSSlble salts
faction that even this behavior cannot
stain the name OF the American
soldiery.
ut cannot be imputable to, or reject
dishonor on, the Army at large salo

will. by the striking contrast II exhlpltS,
hold up to public view the other troops
in the most advantageous point OF light.
Upon taking all the circumstances into
1 cannot sufficiently ex-
press my surprise and indignation at
The arrogance, the folly and the wick
edness OF the mutineerS, nor can l sui
ficiently admire the fidelity, the bravery
and the patriotism which must forever
signalize the unsullied character OF the
other corps of our Army"
Mr.. Emery further quoted from Presi-
dent Washington on the general prin-
ciples of obedience to government: The
very idea of the power and the right Of
the people to establish a government,
the duty of every individ-
ual to obey the established government.

CHEERS
STR|B, LOSER

CHICAGO, Feb. 27.-Ernie
Schaaf, of the Boston Schaafs,
had approached to within a few
crags of the heavyweight peak
today. The Sharkey protege
bruised, battered, bloodied and be-
wildered wee Willie Stribling here
last night, to win the unanimous
decision over the Georgian.
Schaaf sent Stribling to the
resin in the fourth round, and for
the remaining six Strib "took IT,"
It was a terrific right, starting
from near the canvas, that was
the beginning of Strib's swan song.
The bell sounded as Stribling
went down, and there was no
count.
AS the fifth round opened, The
usual cries for the kill" oegari,
cries which were soon husheo as
the gallant Dixie lad, his eyes
partially closed, a blood-smeared,
tired, beaten being, desperately
facing defeat, fought Schaaf for
six rounds with a gameness and
courage seldom displayed IN the
prize ring.
And as Stribling stumbled out
of the arena at the end Of the
fight, you might have thought it
was he who had won. For it was
Strib, the old-timer of 81 years,
veteran of more than 800 fights,
who received the cheers of the
crowd Of 11,000.
Sharkey and Johnny Buckley,
co-managers of Schaaf, were
negotiating today for bouts with
Micky Walker and King LevinSky,
to be held here during the outdoor
season. Col. Jack Dempsey oc'
cupied ringside seat for five
rounds, but the former champ,
himself a participant in many a
bloody battle, left when Stribling
began to take the terrific beating.
