THE QUESTION OF NEGRO SuPPRAoR.-Edi-
tor Star: Your able article Of Tuesday last upon
the proposed change in the political status Of
the District of Columbia, is SO exhaustive Of
the subject. that i do not propose TO offer any
thing TO strengthen the argument. 1 simply
wish TO offer, as a business man and a resident
OF twenty-five years, my endorsement Of the
views contained therein, and express the hone
mat others who think with me, and concur in
the views you have so ably presented, will not
hesitate TO express themselves upon q subject
so vitality important 70 the business of this
community, and so radically affecting our
rights and dignity as citizens Of the great Ame-
riean Republic. i, adopting the spirit OF your
article, ask what good is TO come out of III Are
we TO be wiped entirely out OF political exis-
tencel If so, what is the compensation If i
understand the advocates OF this great reform,
we are to have under this new order Of things
better form Of government q more energetic
system OF city improvements, and-that is all.
has II occurred TO the political 50 nattere in ths
District, that our municipal government for
the past four years have, upon several
occasions, applied TO Congress for en-
larged charter powers, so as to enable
them TO establish by taxation upon property,
system Of street improvements upon
those thoroughfares which are under the con-
troll of the corporate autboritiesi Have not the
city authorities promptly acted under this
extended power. and are they not pushing
ahead with commendable energy street paving
upon thoroughfares which a few years ago
were almost impassable, but are now most
used because OF their improved conditionl i
know that comparisons are odious; but il
under more than a half century's Congress
sional control in and over this city, we have still
before MS the governmental quagmires in Viz
glnia avenue" and the woe -begone look or
Maryland avenue, may we not point with
some degree of complacency TO what we have
already done, and still propose 70 do under the
powers recently extended to the municipal
authorities. Tyranny has been defined a. an
exercise Of power over subjects not requisite for
the purposes Of government II this definition be
a correct one, am sure that it would be DIM
cult TO find in the worlds history a more
power than the adoption Of the proposed
measure concerning the District Of Columbia
would be. CoxsERytroR
