THE EVENING STAR. The Largest Circulation in the District w.D. WALLACH, Editer and Proprietor. WASHINGTON CITY: MONDAY..............JANUARY 7, 1867. S7 READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE. SEE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPEIC AND OTHER MATTER. TO ADVERTISERS. The following is the official showing of the circulation of the daily papers of ity competing for the Government ad Under the recentact of Congress directing such Gdvertising to be made in the two daily news- Pspers of Washington baving the larges Intelligencer. +352 “ The etarns of advertising by the city papers for the quarter ending September 30, 1966, as tAken from the books of the Internal Revenue Office, are as follows THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. A respected cotemporary, the New York Evening Post, on Saturday last treated its read- ¢rs tos long chapter urging the necessity 6f Sweeping changes in the laws ofthis District: founded, evidently, upon an entire misappre- bension of what those laws really are, and the manner in which they are administered. The Grift of its article is drawn from innumerable misrepresentations of the state of things ex- isting here, which two classes of people bave taken occasion to scatter broad-cast. hese classes are, first: Those very extreme republi- cans who. desiring to control all things here for their own personal benefit and advance- men‘, are becoming aware tbat they eannoy rety on the colored vote to put them in our ma- nicipal offices over the heads of tried, faithful, and justly popular public servants, and seek to induce Congress to legislate them into the administration of the local affairs of this Dis- trict, without any responsibility whatever to those whose money iney are ambitious of handling. The other class are our copper- head leaders and intense rebel Sym p.ithisers, ‘These latter are terribly disgusted because Congress has seen fit toaccord the rightof suffrage to the colored people of the District. These prefer to resign their own right of suffrage to voting side by side with the new made voters. They are desperately bent on de- feating the purpose of Congress in Passing the new District franchise bill. That is: on pre- venting the successful iniuation here of the policy of political equality of all men not in- eligible on, account of crime or mental imbe. cilitty. As wide asunder as the poles upon all other points. these bitter antagonistical ele. ments of our population have joined hands in the work of inducing Congress to abolish the right of the eitizens of the District to govern themselves in their local affairs. Their joint aspersions upon the corporate governments of the District sre destitute of foundation in truth. We affirm, without qualification, that there are no purer, fairer or more honest ad- ministrations of municipal affairs in eiche hemispbere than those of the cities of Wash. ingten and Georgetown. Fiscal corruption and offictal maladministration have effected no jodgment whatever im matters great or small in the admunistration of these municipal goy- ernments. In the matter of their treatment of persons of color in our midst, the Evening Post takes occasion to do ample justice to their Past his- tory; saying truly that up to the beginning of the war free negroes were better treated by the eorporate authorities of the District and by its whites than any where else im the United ‘States; and that as a consequence, there were more well-to-do negroes domiciled here than im any other American city, in proportion to Population; and that our negro Popalation ‘were, a3 @ class, far better off and better treat- ed than that of any other city. Such is the drift of what it has to say on these Peints. We may not inappropriately add tnat by our cor- Porate authorities and by all thoughtful white people in the District they have been quite as well treated ever since the war began. True, & few bitter copperheads and rebel sympa- thizers among us inveigh against their race as the cause of the res@lt of the war—the suceess of the Union arms—and here and there igno rant and brutal whites, Frecipitated upon us from the North during the war, seek to treat them, in the matter of allowing them the priv- flege of earning their bread by the sweat o° their brow as best they can, as they are treated by too many in Northern cities. Bot these are bat exceptions to the general rule Prevailing here. Far more chanuels of labor are open to them bere than in Philadelphia, New York, @incinnati, Chicago, or any other Northern city, except perhaps Boston. Our corpora. tions spend ten dollars of taxes collected from white property-holders and other tax-payers for the benefit of the colored race among us— im proportion to the aggregate number of our tax-payers and the aggregate amount collect- ed trom them—where one dollar is similarly spent by any Northern manicipal government for the benefit of the colored race in their own midst. ‘We can assure the Evening Post that in this District there does exist ali the many desiderata which it mentions as being the duty of Con. gress to provide. There is inexorable enforce. ment of “sanatory rules” here. The Proof is i ae fact that in proportion to Population and | means of ali classes of people among us- ‘Washington and Georgetewn are as healthy and have been for years and years Pastas any other cities in the world. There exists here “an ample and impartial corps of police officers and magistrates”—a Government institatiog, by the way—who discharge their daties as effectively and honestly as do similar func. tiomaries in aay other cities in the Union, There is, further, as secure ‘tenure and ready transfer of land” under the laws of this Dis- trict as exist anywhere else under the laws og any Government under the sun. “Manhood suffrage” will exist here in a tew days as per- fect as legislation can make it, unless the com. bination of extreme Republicans, ana Copper- heads and Rebel sympathizers referred to above succeed in inducing Congress to de- Prive the people of all races here ef the right Of seif-government in their local affairs, which as the condition in which it is now sought to place them. We assure the Post further, that there is no more “vigorous supervision and prompt repair of highways” anywhere, than exists here, when the amount collectable to that end from our populstion’s means and numbers, and the Square area of streets, roads. and avenues of the Distriet to be supervised and repaired, are taken inv consideration, The Post will doubt- lees realize the shametul injustice of requiring the people of jhe District to pay tor ali the damage to and wear and tear of the District bighways, resulting from the aggregation of a military population of between one and two hundred thousand souls here, and their street and road destroying operations. Congress has Perpetrated a great wrong om the People of this District in throwing upon them any por. tuon whatever of this burden, which our mani_ cipal governments and popalation have borne manfully, and to obviate which they have xpended and are yet expending @very dollar bey can rake and scrape together to that end. ‘We bave still further to assure the Post, that “provision for the poor” is as ampie and effi. <ient bere as in any other cities in the world, in proportion to means and taxable Population, It should remember that the war has precipi. tated upon our population an addition of full twenty per centum of untaxable negroes trom the South, and perhaps @s many antaxable ‘whites from the North, who, together, far. Bish et least three-fourths of our present paupers requirivg private or corporation aid. ‘We trust with the Post. that Congress will speedily realize the justice of making some adequate provisioa for the necessities of these fortunates from the treasury of the com- country, whose wards they are in con- mon justice, rather than those of the pe»pie of the District of Uolumbia. Again, still farth we assure the Post that there exists bere © Li erat provision of free scBeols supported by tax." There is no other city im the world thit P&ys to that end as large a proportion of its Teceipts trom taxes or other sources as does this so wel: abused city of Washington, whose Aggregate expenditures for popuaiat educa- tioms is at least one hundred thousand doliars perannum. A large per centum of this total is devoted to the educatioa of colored chilaren; & proportion in excess of their relative num- ber. and very far in excees of the amount of taxation collected by the Uorporauen from persons of color. The publie school system of this city won the highest admiration of a committee connected with the managemunt of the public schools of Massachusetts—inciud- ing the superintendent of the public schools of jong since visited us to in. quire Into the condition of popular education here at the public expense. We are justly proud of it, becaase it is really u rpassed im its beneficial results by any other public school system in the world. We agree with the Post, that Congress may make more or less changes in our laws to pub- lic advantage; but by no means as great changes & can be made advantageously of the State laws bearing on its own city of New York. Weare as little inclined to have the cities of the District stand still while the rest of the world is progressing, as we are to retro- gression into the old slough of influences that prevailed in public affairs everywhere before the war set the wheels of progress in motion: Yet we protest earnestiy and respectfully against the scheme of extreme Republican party adventurers in our midst, and copper- head rebel eympathizers, to deprive the Popu- lation of the District of the mgnt of self-govern- ment in their local affairs. We know that this sentiment is sustained by nine-tenths ot our population. white and colored. It is clear to us that no other community has progressed taster and more soundly than that of this Dis. trict. Its property holders and active business men in all walks of life are as well informed and as keenly alive to the necessities of the ‘imes m which they live, and the circum. stances by which they are sarrounded, as any other people under the sui id they are as reliable to the end of ing the results of the war assure the industrial and ideal progress ofthe whole Union as any other Population within its limits, Yet they areas indisposed to having their plainest right of manhood— self-government im their municipal affairs— taken away from them to gratify the thirst for office ot extreme Republicans in their midst, as to gratify the repugnance of sympathizers with the rebellion to giving the Principle of manhood equality of rights an honest and fair trial in this District.
