To the Editor of The Evening Star: I wish you would correct, through the columns of your paper, a statement made in Friday's issue, wherein it is erroneously set forth that I am assistant postmaster at Brightwood, a position I never held at any time. I was sworn as a clerk over four years ago to handle mail, and as such have attended to anything pertaining to the office not requiring official attention. and the only interest I have in the whole matter is that of a citizen who does not want to be robbed of his rights nor see the majority of the patrons of the office robbed of theirs. I am aiso credited with being the author of a set of resolutions that I distinctly said were those of another before I read them. 1 am truly sorry that Mr. Clayton finds Brightwood so extremely stagnant, dull and unprogressive, but I think he spoke a Httle hastily and’ without much thought, or he would not have made the statements he did, which are so easily controverted. By reference to the minutes of the Bright- wood Avenue Citizens’ Association and to about one hundred clippings from your valuable paper and other papers of Wash- ington, I find that Brightwood was fight- ing, with the help of Takoma Park, for rapid transit, gas, water and other tm- provements before the first house was built in-Brightwood Park, and with what measure of success can be seen by a trip to Brightwood over {ts electric car line any evening, when the gas is lit. As for the school house, which the efforts of the people of Brightwood Park secured for us, I find jipping from your paper of March 6 the following under srightwood antes ew public school building at Brightwood is now approaching comple- tion. It will be a two-story, four-room building, with a seating capacity for about 180 pupils,” ete. This, as you see, was about two years before Brightwood Park's existence w ever thought Let u , give cred where credit is du for the ii provements—such rapid’ transit, water, school house, engine hou! long to the Brightwood Avenue Ci jon) and koma Park € ssociation. A gre of credit so to Mr. Daniel Ramey, one of the pro- Jectors of the Park. With one exception, when the meeting of the association was packed to accomplish certain things, I think I am safe to say there never was half a dozen of the Park people present at any of its meeting: And now, as to the number of hou: builtin the two places. As a citizen of Brightwood and vicinity for twenty-seven I think I can better speak than Mr. on, who has only been here about ears. Brightwood Park, of which 1 also a resident and property owner, not more than seventy-two houses, in- instead of over a hun- dred and with three stores, as claimed by Mr. Clayton. But, instead of only four houses being built in what is considered Brightwood, it is easily proven that in ten years there have been forty built And now as to the mud, dust, et . in the two place Let_us see at the Bright- wood Notes of urday’s Star says: “A letter has been received from the Commissioners by Mr. Sands of Flint Street, stating the question of new side- walks for the Park had be Capt.

The trial of Richard Burnett, George Chi- chester and Jamieson, all of this city, charged jointly with arson, which com- menced at Fairfax Court House this morn- ing, attracted quite a number of Alexan- drians who went up on the early morning train.
