GTON: September 20, 1500.) W, A, Prence & Co. SUCCESSORS TO E.G. DAVIE, ° —— ‘The Baltimore and Potomac railroadjexpects fhat on Monday the House will pass the Atkin- son bill ne amended. If through lack of a quorum or interference of other measures this is aot accomplished there will probably be no action on the railroad question this session. ‘The railroad will in this event have wasted the District's legislative time for months to no purpose. Its obstinete and arrogant persist- enee ia the attempt to force Congress to grant it pfecisely what it wishes and to ignore the reasonable requests of the public, has already injared the District, and has shown in the clearest light its utter indifference to the interests of the capital If the railroad in ite original draft of the Atkinson bill had inserted the geographical limitations upon the power of condemnation and the other restrictions which have been forced upon it by way of amendment, and had also inditated the willingness which the Senate Dis- trict subcommittee state it has expressed to make certain improvements in ite grade cross- ings and in the occupation of the publie park, the opposition to its measure would have been comparatively slight, and dotibtless the bill would now be law. But the requests of the board of trade committees in the conference of last January for the very limitation which has now been added to the bill. and for the very expression of an inten- tion to make certaim improvements which has been given to the Senate subcommittec, were contemptuously ignored. The board of trade committees wished to co-operate with the railroad in regard to certain features of its plan, and to obtain at least a promise of com- pensation in improvements to the public for certain other features. The railroad thought thasst could control Congress as it pleased. It preferred to rely upon its lobby rather than upon the support of public opinion. It determined to grasp for every- thing, and to made no terms with the people of the District. Long before today it has learned the foolishness of this policy. Certain of the limitations upon the proposed priv- ileges which it*refusod to the people of the city and which its representatives upon the House District committee declined to concede were added in the House. The promise of improvements denied to the city, was made, it is stated, to the Senate Dis- trict subcommittee. And these results, how- ever slight compared with the vast gains of the road through the legislation, are attributable to the popular denunciation of the original Atkinson bill. This measure was proposed. and diseussed as a settlement of the railroad ques- tion. Now in every section by express reser- vation of power to revoke in Congress, by lim- itation of the powers conferred to a small space in which nochange of tracks is proposed or necessary, and by the appointment of a commission to consider the relocation of tracks, &c., it is indicated that the measure is merely pretiminary to one which shall do justice to the people as well asto the railroad. Logically and reasonably such a commission should con- sider not only what is proposed for the people, but what is proposed for the railroad, and grants sbould be made to both simultaneously. But if this Congress prefers for itself to gratify the railroad alone, and to postpone for the action of some other Congress the satisfaction of the people, the city should be grateful to it that it doesso in such a mannor as to hamper its enecessor as little as possible in perform- ing duties which it neglects. An addi- tional amendment to the first section of the Atkinson Dill limiting its application to the squares east of 45; street, and putting the privileges granted by this scc- tion upon the same footing in this respect as those granted by the other sections of the bill, would have the effect of perfecting the meas- ure, if the treatmont of grade crossings is to be Postponed. Such an amendment should be added by the Senate if the House fails to do so. —<————____— ‘The vacation in the public schools is over.

The opening of a new term of the Washington public schools isan event of much interest to the entire pub- lic. These schools have steadily grown in favor as they have increased in numbers and facili- ties. This was to have been expected, but the merit of the management has had a great dcal to do with the manner in which the schools have been utilized by the people. There is a con- stant and wise development of the local sys- tem in progress, especially notable in the line of industrial, business and practical education, Our sehoots do not yet completely fill the pub- lio want, beeause under the existing system of appropriations it has beer impossible to erect buildings or furnish teachers sufficient for the purpose.
