IMPORTANT RECOMMENDATION OF THE DI2- TRICT COMMISSIONERS. The District Commissioners have addressed a communication to Hon. 8. W. Dorsey, chai man of the Senate District committee, in Improve- * enate bill 600 “in relation to eertificates of assessment for spectral improvemenis in the Distriet of Columbia,” “2 @ new section. hey say “before receiving from your com- mittee the billwe had given considerable at. tention to such assessments made by the late board of public works, and by ourselves under the rules adopted by that board, and had found irregularities and errors in many cases unfa- vorable in the main, to the property-holders. Under rnles which we deem more equitable and in conformity to law, we had statements of sach errors, prepared for the purpose of calling the attention of Congress to the im- portance sof authorizing us or our successors in office to review such assessments; our Ry bel to do so in the absence of such author- y being considered doubtful by our Te; veer ve were thus prepared to favor it bi conferring the power, which is one of the ob- jeets of Senate biil G00. striking out the word “and” on the I7th lin: and inserting the word “or"’ instead. other res apects the bill is clear as to its pur- suggest an additional section to class of assessments in the Dill: namely: made under contracts of tion of Washington city, under the late board “of where the assessments were for the whole cost of the improvements pursuant to the laws of the corporation of Washington at the time the contraets were made, instead of one-third the cost, as all other assessments of said board were made. The anole amount of the assessments was about $300,000, of which, about $200,000 has been paid. Meron certificates, which are liens on the property, draw ten per cent. interest from their date. It is only within a short time that we have been induced by our legal adviser to hold these as- sessments illegal tor the excess of the cost b ene the one-third ther But such being his opinion (the attorn not i assessine! the corpora- but completed public works, of. y of the District) we accept it as the proper construction of the law, and hence recommend the proposed lei lation in respect of such assessments.
