The changes in government Of
this District are now al made. We
have officers appointed by the q. 5.
Government, and responsible to it.
Reckless expenditures are now i'm
possible, so far as law can make
them impossible. Liberal assistance
from the United States will reduce
our taxes to q level of those Of other
communities, and still make the pre-
servation of our credit sure. There
is no doubt, either, of the perman-
ency of affairs on their present foot
ing. These things being under
stood, there is no reason why WASH
ington, with unsurpassed natural
advantages, should not steadily in
crease in wealth and population and
beauty, and become, as the Capital
City of every country should be, the
pride of all the people.
AN INDICATION OF THE HARD TINES.
As soon as the sundry civil bill
was passed with the $4,000 for COM
pleting the restoration of models
partially destroyed in the great Pat
'ent Office fire last Fall, the corridors
of that office began to be thronged
with applicants for appointment.
The appropriation is small, the room
where the necessary work is to be
done is quite small, and the models
for the most part intricate, requiring.
skilled workmen and limited in num-
Der. For the % or 80 places to be
filed, there were several hundred
seeking appointment, most OF whom
has been out of work for months.
The city is full of such. From far
and near they come. Every newly
elected Congressman and diplomatic
is followed here by dozens and scores
of followers who dog and nag the
comfort out OF tho politicians life
if there ever be any therein.
"wELL DONE"
Senator Sargent is the good boy
OF the last session of Congress. He
was not absent single day, nor did
no miss roll.call during the whole
seven months session. Senator
Window was absent only one day
and Senator Blaine only part of
two days, Notwithstanding the press
several times had him danger

Cockrell was the most regular attend
ant on the Democratic side. Senator
Sharon was not here at all during
the session. His salary and mileage,
amounting to over % 600 lies await
ing him in the hands Of the Senste's
Disbunxing Clerk, bat his friends
say he viii not draw t.
