Another Suggestion about the Form,
Of District GoYernment.

Mr.. EDITOR:-SO much of the valuable
space of the columns of THE STAR has
already been devoted TO suggestions and ar
gumcntS as 10 the best form of government
for the people of this District that ] simply
ask room for one or two suggestions.
It has always seemed TO me from the be-
ginning of this discussion as TO how we
should be governed, that the people of this
District ought to be consulted in some way
IN their aggregate capacity. Surely, If the
American principle of local selfgOvernment
is to be adhered TO, they ought TO be; and the
my suggestion is this: Let Congress pass II
joint resolution authorizing the legal voters
OF the twenty-five legislative districts into
which this District was divided under the
late lamentablc form of government, elect
two OF their most respectable and responsible
citizens as delegates to a convention; which
convention shall prepare bill for the gov
eminent OF the District of Columbia, to be
enacted into a law by Congress. [ think
perhaps the constitutional stumbling block
OF 40 exercise exclusive legislation, IA al eases
lrhGtSOeUer, OreT such District" might be over
come by a bill prepared by this convention
have no doubt that 10 would be more salts
factory 10 larger majority OF our citizens
than any bill that may be prepared by a COM
mittee Of Congressman who know very little,
and care less, about the wants OF our citi-
zens. IN order to strip this convention of Il
partisan complexion, would have one of the
two delegates from each legislative district q
democrat and the other q republican and
both should be real estate owners, for the
very good reason that il is q well known
principle in the formation of a government
that the owners OF the soil are cOnSeFVat i've
and cautious. ] still adhere TO the cOnvic-
ton that simple municipal form of govern
ment would be the cheapest and best for this
