My about the to be attributed to taking a PROJECTED CITY IMPROVEMENT. ‘The projects for the improvement of streets seern to have taken the places of the projects for the im it of trade with which leaders ils ypared with the great | little com with tl ex) | which” were entertained when | investments were made, on the other hand, Alexandria has been by good fortune rid of most of the debt accumulated for these invest- ments. The state of Virginia took off three- fifths of the large sum which. had been sub- scribed to the Alexandria canal. The Midland or O.and A. stock was sold ata discount,but ina way which enabled the cit to build a new market house, which is proving quite profitable to the | sinking fund. ‘The gas work investment proved | a bonanza, and while the compromise readjust- ment made some fifteen years ago has not low- ered the face of the debt, it has diminished the interest, for the present, by one-half, so that the town is not now paying interest on more than one-fifth of its original investment for trade-bringing improvements. ‘The outlook of prosperity now is largely in the direction of accession of population from Wash- ington, and many believe that improved streets would have the effect of attracting population from Washington to Alexandria, thers say that people would not come from Washington to this place in any degree because of smooth stzeots, but | because living ig eheaper, and a small income _ will ive more comfort here than in Washington, and they say that any effort of Alexandria to imitate Washington in the matter of streets would be only anew example of the frog that swelled to imitate the pronortions of the oxand burst. ‘The fact is now no place of residence in the world «” citizen doing business in Washington w wome is Jess than $1,600 per annum as 1 comforts and conveniences within range of his income as Alexandria. NO CHANGE IN DocTORS' FEES. There is not the slightest probability of any chinge in the rate of $1 per de o's visit, which has been the customary rate v. .ucdical service here for many years, 80 that one of the advantages of Alexandria to persons of moder- ate incomes will continue to be that when they get sick they can be cured at half the rates charged in Washington. The Medical Society here determined last night that nochange in the customary charges is expedient and none will be made. Notes, ‘ The United States supply steamer which has been anchored off this harbor sailed yester- day. The Alexandria democratic delegation to the Richmond convention had a pleasant trip and Was entirely successful in everything which it went to Richmond to accomplish. Wachington street contractors are now inter- ested in Alexandria and plans for the improve- ment of Washington and Franklin streets are discussed.
