EVENING STAR. CROSBY 8S. NOYES.......Editor. Largest Circulation in the District February 12, 1874. TEU Where to Advertise, ‘Tax Stak, which, from its start, has been the pa- per of the people, has, by the pains taken to maze it eeafe, reliable, newsy and acceptable visitor to every family, gained s popalarity amongst all classes of the community second to that of nv newspaper in the country with the samo area of population. Keep- ing fall pace with the oxtraordinary growth of the city, and reaching every household in the District, aad 8 wide renge outside, THE STAR has now at- tained a circulation very mach larger than that of all the other city dailies combined. This is no idle claim, but one we are prepared to establish at avy time by “beoks and papers.” And this circulation, Ss mated above, is universal, reaching the busi- ness community, the weal great indos- trial forees, the skilled mec! the tsboring men, the the house- »vernment employes, the Congtes-- men—in short, there is no circle where Tus Stan is not s reguiar and welcome guest. The Feeult is that Txe Stax effords unsurpased ad- vantages as® medium of communication between all classes of the community, in the way of ths ai- Justment of demand and supply. The man who bas S00ds to sell stares the fact and the inducements he am offer, in our conspicuous and easily scanned Sé¥ertisement columns, aad he ts snre to attract the Sttention of the very classcf purch«sers who are eager in these hard times to avail themselves of the best terms obtainable. The same is true of the two grest classes into which the community isdivided— those who seek employment, and those who need their services, A three-line advertisement in Tue Stax serves as if by magic to bring the parties of the twe needs together. The illustrations might be carried out toany length, bat this is hardly neces- sary in these days, when the aivantages of adver- tising im a paper like Tux BraR,read by ever: body and trusted by everybody been so satis- factorily terted and so well appreciated. It has been the custom of Congress for many years past to divide appropriations here and there for the repair and improvement of our public grounds. The head of each of the offices responsible for the same would make an esti- mate, upon which was based an appropriation for some specific work; thus the Agricultural department would receive a sum to improve ita walks; the Smithsonian another, perhaps, for the same purpose, as weil as the Botanical gar- Gen. The effect of this practice has been to improve here and there by patchwork and with- out any systematic plan for general improve- ment. The two committees of Congress Baving im charge our public buildings and grounds have come to the conclusion that it is inadviss- ble to fritter away the public money in small sums for any specific work, but to have Prepared a general plan for the improvement of our public grounds, from the monument lot, toand to include the Capitol Park. To this end negotiations are now pending to secure the Services of Mr. Olmsted, of New York, whose skill as @ landscape engineer and gardener is displayed in the Central Park and its surround- ings. It is proposed to have him prepare for the action of Congress a plan to merge and con- nect the public grounds, and after 1t shall have been approved, to appropriate in bulk a sum sufficient to complete what recommendations may be set forth in the specifications he pre- sents. ———E— Unprejud:ced and fair-minded writers from the capital bear cheerful and honest testimony not only to the extent of the improvements which have transformed the city from one of the least to one of the most attractive cities in the country, but to the indomitable pluck and energy of the men who are responsible for the transformation. We clip the following from the Washington editorial correspondence of the Norwalk (Conn.) Gazette. The writer, a gen- tleman of high character, who is temporarily residing here, is a property-owner in Washing- ton, and he pays his taxes cheerfully, recogniz. ing, as be does, the value of improvements and their bearing upon the futare of the capital and the welfare of its citizens “* Considerable local excitement has been caused by the introduction into Congress of a resolution calling for an invesgigation into the jocal affairs of the District government. An enormous amount of money has been expended by the Board of Public Works, and the most prodigious amount of work has eady been done. The transformation here approaches almost to the miraculous. Those who have not visited b span gona since the closing period of the war, would scarce know the place. It is perhaps unreasonable to suppose that there may not have been venality and corruption in pg ay of all this vast work and expenditure, but that estly do. in the main, the work has been hon- ne, there cannot be much well grounded Itis due to those controlling the Dis- So and also the nation, that the ex: m shall be so thorough and exhaust- ive as to forever silence the scandals so indus- | triously circulated by the press, if they be , and if true, that the guilty shall be It is plain to sbeat music al corraptions are the old dis- ‘nothing- ington regime, who make no effort to conceal thes vexation chagrin that the Yankee has come AY Shepherd. We do not know him, except by sight, and yet it any mande- | serves the nation’s gratitude. in =< ment, it ig this much abused “‘ Boss Shepherd.” a from poverty and obscurity, he has by dint percent ghee grey and enterprise won not only | tortune the bighest political honors, but the confidence and esteem of all who know him intimately. This man has done more probably than any other twenty men towards regenerat- ing this once unsightly and repulsive, but now beautiful and attractive capital. People of wealth from all of the north and west are rushing in here, selecting the desirable buildi srtes, erectin tial e*ices for winter resi: dences, until the future uf Washington is as assured for a popular winter resort as Saratoga Branch for the summer. We predict ‘that in less than ten years Washington will be 1 tiful capital city on the face of globe, that the whole nation will feel a Ss ardent as the French people do in -payer here has one satisfaction cannot always b: elsewhere. He can see fc himself the im, ments made with his | money. = a | The W: correspondent of the New | York Times says of the Joint Investigating | Committee: “The committee as organized is, om the whole, rather inclined to be hostile to the District government, and will, at least, not show it any undue favors. On the other hand, ft is not likely to make the investigation a per- secution, and a report fair and just to all par. | tes may be expected.” This is all the District | government and the people of the District de- i sire, and it is to be hoped that, with the com- | mittee constituted as above stated, we shall bear no more of the parrot-cry of the malcon- | tents that they cannot get a thorough investi- | gation. ———_—_ -- 202 — Governor Whyte, of Maryland, yesterday ve- | toed the bill passea by the state legislature re- | cently, providing for the defense of state | Fegistration and election officers, indicted | {m United States courts. The veto is on the | ground that the bill is too ambiguous in its terms, and the Governor also suggests that under its provisions he might be called upon to pay for the defence of those whose indictments bad been caused by theirown palpable miscon- @uct. The veto was sent to the House of Dele- gates,where the bill had originated, and was sas- tained by & vote of 54 to 1. -<e-: Our statesmen are not the only ones bothered by the financial question. Ats# mass meeting of liberals recently in England, preliminary to the parliamentary elections, Mr. Gladstone said in bis speech: “The real issue before the coun- ‘try is finance.” The same is said to be as true ef France, Austria and Russia as of England.
