On July lst 1884, Washington had nearly 141 miles of paved surects, The concrote or asphalt pavements amounted to nearly sixty miles, tho macadam 86 miles, the bal- ance consisting of wood, gravel, cobble- stone and stono blocks. After sponding $1,000,000 upon wooden pavements, there remained at tho beginning of this year only two and a half miles of the old wooden pavement, and that will havo to be replaced, The pavements now laid are of three kinds, according to traflic and grade streots.

Owing to past cxperienco with v precidents who had succeeded to tho presidency, 1in common with many re- publicans regarded MrArthurattheoutset with distrust; but Lis wise, conciliatory conservative and patriotic courso dis- armed all criticism and challenged the respect of all men regardless of faction or parly. Imbued with the iden that it was tho safest and best thing to do at that critical juncture, not only for tho party, but for the country, Las carnestly advocated the nomination of Mr. Arthur last spring as 1 had that of Mr. Blaine during the two preceding canvasses. ‘There was, howover, another ground, Mr. Blaine was not known to be candidate, and a vory grave doubt was entortained by many thinking ro- publicans in whoso judgomont I had con- fidenco that ho could not of Now York, which was most absolutely necossary to insuro suc cess to the patty.

It can not jeopardize repub- lican success makedisclosures which leave very little room for doubt that Mr. Blaine's nominationwas brought about by methods whichcannot be too severely con- doemmned,and which are largely responeible for tho final disaster.
