At the instance of the Congressional District
Committees, a meeting OF prominent citizens
was held last night to suggest such legislation as
in their opinion Is needed for the interests of
the District. Various measures of District i'm
portsncs were discussed with more or less diff
ference of opinion; but upon one point there
seemed to be entire unanimity-the necessity for
a change in the form Of government for this
District The plan favored by most present was
territorial form of government, with one
House or both elected by the people, and
Governor appointed by the President. 1t was
decided to call public meeting Of citizens, and
present the draft of plan of District govern
ment for consideration there. 1t is proper that
this matter should receive thoughtful conside-
ration by the people OF the District in order
that an intelligent expression of opinion may be
reached. Party lines should be ignored, and the
question approached without bias from the in
terests OF the ''ins' or the disappointments of
the 'souts."
Il IL desirable 10 substitute for the present
conflicting and necessarily impotent jurisdic-
tions in the two District cities and the county,
one efficient government, clothed by Congress
with sufficient power to deal with all the i'm
portant matters of District interest which now
are hung up in Congressional committee rooms.
and are likely TO be indefinitely, solely because
Congress has not time to give them cOnsidera-
ton? Is 1t not possible by constructing new
plan of government for Washington. George
town, and the county, to avoid the conceded de-
fects Of the old modes; that shall provide for a
more economical administration OF the finances:
better return for the expenditure of money;
better system of checks upon officials; in short,
that shall give us the benefits of all the improved
modes Of municipal government, put us on the
path of progress, and endow US with some 60
aheaditiveness and spirit Of selr-relance? These
are some OF the questions that present them
selves for consideration in this connection.

AAAH
There has been one bill intro
duced in Congress, during the pres.
ent session to increase taxes, tO-wit:
Gen. Schenck's tariff bill. No bill
has been introduced, as yet, to re-
duce taxes, though we understand
that one is being mRtnred for that
purpose. The President, in his
annual message, recommended that
there be no reduction ; but It
Is reported, and generally believed,
that he has since changed his views.
The Secretary Of the Treasury, In
his annual report and In a subse.
quent lecture in the city Of Boston,
took ground against any abatement,
and has since given no indication
Of any change Of views. II is evil
dent, therefore, that II any relief Is
to be obtained II will not be accom-
plished without resistance. The
people must take hold of the matter
themselves, and instruct their rep.
resentatives in Congress In q way
that they cannot misunderstood.
In 1867 Congress removed taxes
to the amount Of S~lT5.000,000.
While the larger part Of this tax
was, under the operations Of the
tariff laws, merely diverted from the
Treasury to the pockets Of capital
its, there was, nevertheless, a per-
ceplible tightening of the public
burden. The internsletaxes are
protected" articles having been all,
or nearly all, removed by thsilegis-
lation OF 1867, it follows that any
further reduction will operate 70
The advantage Of the whole com.
munity. The tax on sales ought
to be abolished. The petty and
vexatious assessments on watches
and silver spoons ought TO he dis
continued. The tax on gross ne
eeipts of transpOrtatiOn companies
Is, Ia fact, q tax on the article trans.
ported, and, being no longer need
ed, should be abolished. The spec
cial taxes or licenses, should like.
wise be swept from the statute
book. They COsE more than they
come to.
In the matter Of the tariff, the
oppressive taxation is not so much
the sum which is collected by the
government as that which is forced
out of the consumer for the benefit
Of the producer under the cover o.
law. The extent Of this extorti0n.
IL shown by the fact that there are
1000 different articles taxed by the
tariff, and that upon five Of them
alone the government collects one
half the gold revenue It receives.
IL has been demonstrated By the
actual returns of last years imports
that S150,0000W can Be annually
collected by customs duties, with.
out any increase Of the rate Of tax,
from sixty.ive articles, thus reliev-
ing the people of the immense tax
Of ~forty.eight per cent. In gold up.
