Washington FLATS"

When Gen. Washington laid out on the banks
OF the Potomac, the city which now bears his
name. the channel OF the river extended along
the north side OF the stream and passed the
site OF the future capital, While a mile away,
near the Virginia shore, there were extensive
flats covered by water only at high tide. The
pleasantest part OF the city was al that time
those squares bordering On the river, and upon
them the first stately mansions or the National
Capital were erected.
AS the coal trade OF Georgetown, a mile above
Washington. increa ed in Importance with the
completion or The Chesapeake and Ohio canal,
and deeper water along the Wharves or that
city became desirable. AnaloStan Island, which
lay In the river opposite, was at each end con-
nected with the main land Dy means OF cause
ways, and the course OF the stream was SO
much changed that opposite the White House,
the Washington Monument and the new
War and Navy department building, the
channel cha t,l.u has gradually receded towards
hundreds of acres Of flats on the WASH
ingtOn side OF the river, upon which one OF the
largest sewers OF the city discharges its con-

tation, and when it begins to decay In the fall

which has accumulated upon 1t carry disease
over considerable portion OF the city, and
especially TO that part which, during the last
ten years, has been covered with magnificent
residences. This malaria has. for years. made
the White House more and more unhealthy
during the summer months and now large
section OF Washington is becoming unsafe as a
residence from June TO November.
The President has recommended that steps
be 1mme diately taken to improve these hats.
and plans have been prepared for filling them
up with gravel taken from the neighboring
hills. They might thus be converted into a
beautiful park, or the land so made might be
sold for residences, and In either event the
health OF the city would be greatly improved.
President Hayes has always hoped that
during his admins tration some steps
toward doing this important work
would be taken, and now 1t Is
made in the annual river and harbor bill, the
President will veto that measure. Washington,
but for this nuisance, would be one Of the
healthiest cities in the country. and In spite OF
1t, Is now far from unhealthy. There ought to
be no more delay In this matter. The capital
city is now one of the most beautiful in the
world, and the time is not far distant when 1t
will surpass them all In attractiveueSs. There
ought therefore to be no hesitation In making
against disease. Providence Press.
