EVENING STAR. NGTO WASI r Cres January IS. 1875. CROSBY S. NOYES... Largest Circulation in the Distriet remedy s. The session is al and the ational basl- < will apy the atten- for the remainder that there Will be little time to give strict matters. And yet it is imperative that some = should be taken by Congress this winter, tling definitely the financial r Government with this Dist The so serious for our taxpayers and men that it may he said to be almost ene of life and death to them. Should Comgress ad- journ without exch action the shrinkage of values, and the utter stagnation that would fal! upon all business opera tions would be something apziling. And yet in fce of this fact we find the cinss of our citizens who have the most at stake resting supinely, either from hopelessness, or bec se they e deluded by the utterly mistaken fea that matters will come right without any exertion ow their part. In fact, all the ac ken by our citizens. ap we interestetin epposin er ot the District bills ne ; and thus the fores | > way of obstir ances it ts however kintly dis- i feel at a toss how tion. Under the ange th et should take some Congressional action = that the general M the Distric eases. This prin- ne Morrili bill the latter the at shall pay in the united effort to secur establishing the proportic pvernment aml the peopl shall pay of the Distri ciple is established both h bill the tax the its property is giv Sargent Tu on 3 year; anlif, for inste ess should see fit to ap- propriate ten milli year for District improvements, it would not he fair to require the people of the District to pay an equivalent sum. © rion is that it would be more satists around to have Congress establish the exnct proportion it will pay, as in the Sargent bill; but as we understand that Mr. Morrill is not tenacious of particular points of his bill of this charac ter, so that the general frame-work is main- tained. it is probable that he would rea lily Accept any amendment tha! would make it fair ami just to our tax-payers. It is said that the Morrill bill, orsome bill endorsed by the joint special conam: will stand a bet- ter chane of securing the attention of Con- gress than any new bill. We kaow not how this may be; bat there can be no quest that the point is to concen. trate all the strength available upon what- ever bill, embodying the principle of government paying its fair proportion of District expenses, has the best chance of passing this session. If will never do to have the ter go over fo the next Con- gress. and toa House in which States rights Opposition to buik up a great national capital btless come in play to the disadvantage of this Distr And it must he remembered, also, that the next House Will be. with the exception of thirty or forty members, utter strangers here, and entirely jar with the wants and necessities of of the District, and of the nature Ations of the general government District.

It is a measure that Will be a convenience to everybody, an aginst whieh no person can urge a single Valid objection. —__—_—_~+««--______ There was some acid in Donn Piatt’s answers to the Ways and Means Committee, but the general verdict of the public, or, what is the same thing, of the press, is that the committee richly deserved a rap over the knuckles for going beyond the subject of inquiry to eatechise the witness conceraing his own private business affairs, having no earthly connection with Pacific mail. It is noticed as a fact requiring some explanation that while the committee thus seek to pry inte the private business of witnesses Who are not members of Congress they rminated their inquiries, as se of Mr. Parsons, when the witness, mber, has jected that the said rned his own private bust- be nuts for Congressmen to ” with a jourvalist who has cheer- y applied the scalpel to them, but they t seek to corner him in a e k away at hin with cleavers. y riles the victim, and the have promptly te in the ¢ inqu ness. —_—_-s2e--—_ which the express company in- making against the transportation packages of merchandise in the > in which they are bound to be Worsted. There is searcely a member of Con- gress who has not in his district hundreds of families so remote from express lines as to be unable not afford to do so, Were express offices as plenty in thinly settled portions of the coua- try as post-offices now 3 The reliance of hundreds of thousands of these people for the transportation of small m: atos, tokens of affection and every-day conveniances to and ais is upon the mails al and to change existing laws on the subject would be to practi jarge portion of the inhabitants of many of the states and territories of all means of in- terchange of that character. The mail is, indeed, the poor man’s express. The rich and the prosperous can afforl to pay the high charged by these close and wealthy olies, but the poor rely upon the mails exclusively for that service. Congress might 2s well put the postage on a single letter back to ten or fifteen cents as te think of repealing this clause of the law at the demand of the express companies. ss0e-) Beecher continues his prayer-meeting “talks” for the moral and religious instrue- tion of his flock. At the iast prayger-mesting he told his ealous followers that they were almost (oo idolatrous towaris him, and he Was good enough to say that they really must not place him above Jesus Christ. President Orton, in accepting the resigna- tion of Gen. Eckert, lately one of the division superintendents of the Western Union Tels graph Company, committed the indiseretion of losing his temper and charging that gen- tieman with a betrayal of confidence in Withdrawing from its service. It is likely 1 yat Gen. Eekert’s surroundings for several ars past have not been such as to teach / a very exalted or impressive lessons in but those who knew him before he » under such baleful influences will be to believe that even they have so ged his changed his character as to jus- ihe imputation of dishonorable conduct e by Orton. The prospect of having an ve and experienced competitor in the graphic business has evidently soured iv. Orton's disposition. He should learn to keep his temper.
