EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON CITY: MONDAY..... +. January 31, 1870. _Reading Matter on Every Page. Page. _ The Distriet im Congress. ‘The full report of the late debate im the Sen- ate on District matters shows that it was partici- pated in by a large number of the members, and the views expressed were of the highest interest to all who have the we fare of this com- munity st heart. We do not remember any Previous debate that has shown so intelligent a ‘comprehension by members of the wants of the District, and of the nature of the relations be- tween Congress and the District. It is evident Mr. Howard said he would vol for this bill, but would prefer to see this burden placed upoa the sh ulders of the peopleof the District rather than upon the Treasury of the United States. Mr. Sherman said: “| did not intend to say about this ae, Woks ee oer SS ae ~ 42: community as the Government of the United States is to owner of all the property in this District. of Mr. Hamlin —One-hal if, my honorable friend | that Senators have been led by the recent dis- cussions in public and through the press to give More attention to District matters than hereto- fore, and we augur happy results from the intel- ligent understanding they have reacned gf what is needed to improve the condition of affairs bere. It will be noticed that nearly every Senator ‘who spoke expressed the opinion that the present mode of government for the District is wretch- edly defective and needs a speedy change. Senator Wilson, who it has been given out was Opposed to a territorial form of government, expressed himself decidedly in favor of that plan, with all the offices eleetive. It is noticeable, also, that in this debate, taking so wide a range as it did, and eliciting an expression of views from so many members, not a word or syWable was uttered in sympathy With the capital-moving project; on the con- trary, every speaker seemed to look upon this as the permanent seat of Government, without doubt or question, and entitled as the nation’s permanent capital to receive thoughtful eare at their hands. The debate sprang up upon the Dill appropriating $30,000 tor the temporary re- lief of the poor and destitute people in the Dis- trict of Columbia. Mr. Pomeroy wanted the Dill amended so that the appropriation might be administered in a way to provide labor and Promote industry. If, said he, the great water- power on the Potomac could be made available for the turning of the wheels of machinery, if factories could be established here, if this city could be made like other cities in Providing self-supporting means of labor for the popula- tion, there would be no occasion for contribu- tions of this sort. _He would like to have an ap- Propriation large enough to pave the streets and avenues of this city. He believed if they could now make an appropriation to pave the avenues, or some portion of them, in Washington, and employ the poor in that way, they would be pro- moting their interest better than by giving them money and provisions as mere objects of charity. Mr. Davis said that one of the great evils, im this city especially, is that so many people who are able to labor and who have not the means Of living without labor are allured to come here, and after getting here, without the means of support unless by labor, they either have now the opportunity to labor or are unwilling to do it. He would suggest that this is not the best Place for persons who are able to labor to ob- tain employment. Mr. Pomeroy answered that be did not think it was. Mr. Davis recom- mended that some system be devised to send away from this city the persons who are willing to labor, but who are unable to obtain employ- ment here and who cannot live comtortably without Isbor. Mr. Thurman objected to the mode of distributing the appropriation, and in this connection said * We have now in this District a movement look- tetoe much better government, in my judtoment, something in joe this Instrict has ever had, mature of @ territorial government; govern hae 1 that would be less: expensive, I venture tosa: ~~ one half than the present ‘government of ‘the | District; a government that would protect the aaoiaae Sree to day to fon ph re Ditret ‘ete * a ty Serer — ter old me of ie Pele enacted before the Kevolution.

By establishing the Gov. {ament here we fave brought, totis place thous n. i, = people, of laboring men. comy but Tittle property, comparatively speaking, in the District of Columbia. ‘There is vast amount of — te there are eet numbers of dependent labor mle. have done very little for ind ‘here, »f£ have done very little for mane While’ we have voted away millions upon millions of acres of the vast public domain of the United States for the urposes of education in the States, here in the where we should | ave had the’ model schools Of this countray we have refused either to give lands or to money. Twelve years ago I introduced a bill | granting a million of acres for the purpose, and have introduced a bill granting two millions | of acres for education sat nearly every Congron tax-payers of this District to a degree that they never have been protected, and would give ‘this District what it ought to have, a Delegate in the other House of Con; eae.

He said: “I could show, if necessary, that the appro- Priations of every kind maie t9 this Distrist for 't purpeses amount to hardly six per cent. The m..€¥s that were given to this Goverament Dy the pay parent soil here. We have at least $100,0!7,00 of property in this Dis- trict; and from every consideration, apart even from that one which is of itself sufficient, that it is our Capital, we are under every moral obli- | m to contribute some proportion toward ‘Ey metetcesnce of the local (rpg =a sgutl and toward the aid which myst b= ~ given to its | “aquired if the District had no system of 1a", ror the support oi the indigent? = Me crill, of Maine, said: “*¥’ ndoubtedly the people of the District are ‘hot without conveniences for the poor. I un- | derstand that to be the fact; but here is this ral fact known to the Senator and known us all, which explains the necessity, [ think, of this hill, and which has before called for sim= ilar legislation on the part of Congress. Dur: the late rebeilion, when the colored people were fleeing from rebel communities, they came in large nambers to this city as a place of refuge. A great many of them came here to the oppres- sion, perhaps of the people of the District of Columbia. It was impossible to suj that the people of this District while taking care of | their own resident poor, should be charged with the additional poor of the region of country around about, because the colored people fled here from ail sections, Virginia, Maryland; and so far as possible they came ‘to this District... ‘They were thrown upon this community under these circumstances—waifs, having no home, no land, no property of any description, no | relations, political or civil, with the community. | The people of this Districe did not feel bousd tosupport them except as a charity, and they | are not called upon to do it. Congress cannot | ignore that fact; and I submit that Congress has | ‘been in some way accessory to that fact. Ido | not mean except in ‘ageneral way, but there has Deen a state of affairs in this country which ac- | counts for this general fact, and here to-day | there are twenty or poor, dis- | tressed, indigent, absolut mat_people of | the character described by a what is to be ir to throw this eharge on the people of the District of Colum, | bia?’ Is it. not the duty of Congress, in view of | these facts, to relieve these people? That is | precisely what I understand to be the case.” Mr. Thurman still contended that there ought to be a proper system of poor laws for the Dis- trict in order that the charity of the Govern- ment might be dispeused through legitimate channels. He said: “There is not one able-bodied man now of of Washington who to leave eft and’ ge late the reral Gitricts and | 3 work like white men work; and every bill of | tho: oy ae this kind that merely a bounty upon | TE is: offer to these pauperis. cares ttese | men to come to this 2 ; ai 3 2.

Whatever measure is devised on this subject, I hope that Cougress, with its hundreds of milions of Property here, and in consideration of the fact that the exist ence of the Government at this point brings so many Poor laboring people, will feel under Obli- to de something to aid the educational Institutions of ‘the Dis ict, and something to relieve the suffering of the people.

Phere is no reason why it should not be repre- sented ress. But I am against doit = thing 01 coral lishing anything which shal from the people here the right ofsuffrage ‘which las been given to them and the right to elect whatever officers they need.” Mr. Wilson said, in answer to an allusion made to the city government, that he did not suppose it perfect, but he thought it mach bet- ter than any during the last fifteen or twenty years. In further defence of the city he said: “ I believe the city of Washington isin many respects the most ae aan, in the country.

I see, how- ever, in the su; ‘ions that have been made, particularly by the two Senators from Uhio, a pressing necessity for a permanent organization totake care of the poor of this District, and it seems to me there should be a reorganization of the government of the District in some form, so that the people here can have = eo the ses.

Governor Walker, of Virginia, who has been Governor of that State acting as under the appointment of General Canby since the 2ist of September last, took the oath of office before Judge Willoughby, of the Court of Ap- peals, on Saturday last, and became de facto Governor of the State.
