As at present constituted, the House
Committee on the District of Colum-
bia is a new and comparatively un-
tried committee, Mr.. Barbour, the
chairman, being the only member who
has much practical acquaintance with
our local affairs. Yet the general
character of the committee, 50 far rs
known, is such as to warrant the be.
lief that it will materalize into an
active and useful organization, taking
intelligent care of the great interests
intrusted to its charge.
II has sometimes been the case, or at
least II has so appeared to the Wash
ington public, that in making up the
District Committee the Speaker has
utilized II as a sort of dumping ground
for Members whom he was unable to
provide for otherwise; but we must
acquit Mr.. Carlisle of 50 serious an i'm
putation as this. None know better
than he the importance to- which the
National Capital has risen of late years
or of the common concern felt by the
people of all the States in everything
that relates to its welfare, progress and
beauty 1t had been wiser, perhaps,
TO have selected half dozen or so of
the members of the committee from
the several large cities of the country,
as having more intimate acquaintance
with the nature and needs Of populous
municipalities, but we take no formal
exception to the Speakers action on
this account,
A committee composed Of good busi-
ness men, with progressive ideas, like
Mr.. Barbour, Mr., Gay, Mr.. Heard,
Mr.. Compton, Mr.. Davenport and
others, can hardly fail TO comprehend
fhc responsibilities of their position,
and there are few places within the
Speakers gift where Senators and
Representative having these compre'
hensive ideas can accomplish so much
substantial good or reflect greater honor
upon themselves as on the committees
of the District of Columbia. There is
no citizen, however remote, but feels a
natural pride in all that may contribute
10 the greatness and glory and proper
administration of the Capital of his
country; and whatever Is done In thi'
direction becomes an enduring monu
The Washington critic., 1886-01-08
WASHINGTON. JAN. 8, 1886.
THE NEW HOUSE COMMITTEES.

There is not half as much complain
ing among members about the positions
assigned them as there usually Is when
The Speaker of the House announces
the committees of that body. The
reason of this is very patent The
committees are not what they used to
be. The new rules of the House not
only deprive the Appropriations
Committee of much of its power but
also uses tho shears upon other com
mittccs. Under the theory of the new
rules the House rs n whole is going
10 attend to the business before 1t and
not otabjecily follow what may be blocked
out for 1t in n committee room by thir-
teen OF more members Under such
circumstances the average Member of
of the House is about as big man as
the other average Member who may be
little more prominent in that he is on
an important committee.
10 whom the leading places on the
more important committees would be
given was pretty well known before
hand. II was no secret that Mr.. Car
isle was going TO keep those who held
such places in the last Congress and
who were returned to this, where
they were. This was II very polite
course, and he could hardly have done
otherwise, for the gentlemen referred
10 were those who made Mr.. Carlisle
Speaker of the last Congress and gave
him an opportunity of showing that he
was such an excellent presiding officer
that his re election was foregone con
clnsion.
From the general rule to which we
have referred Mr. Carlisle made few
exceptions, and one of those exccp-
tions was, perhaps, mistake. This
was the deposition of Ex-Governor
Curtin from the craftsmanship of the
Committee on Foreign Affairs, a posi-
tion which he strongly desired TO re-
tain, but as Mr.. Randall told the Gov
ernor. with a smile Of sardonic sym
pathy, that's what he got for voting for
the new rules. With the influences that
brought about the change, however,
we have nothing to do.
The committees to which are at
tached the most significance are the
Ways and Means and the Coinage,
Weights and Measures committees.
An analysis of the membership of these
committees shows that Mr.. Carlisle
appreciated the fact that the
House is going to do its own
legislation While Mr.. Morrison,
an enthusiastic tariff reformer, is at the
head Of Ways aud Means, yet he and
the others on that committee who
think with him are so balanced by
those who think differently that the
committee rs q whole cannot be said to
Dc of pronounced free trade or even
revenue reform character, after all. Oh
the Coinage Committee, while Mr.
Bland, the author of the present silver
legislation. remains at its head, the
same general remarks made about
Ways and Means and the Tariff apply
10 the attitude of the Coinage member
on the silver question.
Mr. Randall remains chairman of tn,
Appropriations Committee, as ht
should, and, upon the whole, Mr.
Carlisle is TO be congratulated for tn
manner in which he has performc,
the arduous task of assigning his 3a
men TO the forty eight committees.

the fact that an old globe in the town Of
Nuremberg, Germany, has the delineation
of a canal across the Isthmus Of Panama
that must have suggested the idea $50 years

connection to mention the fact that towards

cut across the southern end of the Isthmus
of Panama by some Monks, connecting the
head-waters Of the Atrato and San Juan

Mr.. AUGUST BURGDoRr, for many years
reputable and prominent business man Of
this city, was yesterday acquitted ON a
charge of presenting false vouchers to the
Navy Department, jury of twelve of his
fellow citizens not leaving the box to con-
suit before pronouncing a verdict of not
guilty. Mr.. Burgdorf has for years had
large dealings with the Government, and
never before had his integrity nor the cor
rectness Of his accounts been brought into
question. The case against him was weak
from the start, some lawyers even express
ing surprise that the grand jury should
have returned bill OF indictment.
If there were any lingering doubts
as to the character of the verdict
that should be rendered that doubt
was dispelled when Mr. Burgdorf took the
witness stand and in straightforward
clear and intelligent manner explained his
business connection with the Navy Depart
ment and what might have been considered
discrepancy in his vouchers for goods fur
nished. The trial was almost n judicial
farce, to which conclusion Judge Mac
Arthur himself seemed to have come
when he instructed the jury. He said
that Mr.. Burgdorf had probably had OPP
portunities to take advantage of the Gov
ernment, but it had been clearly shown that
he had not taken any such advantage.
Judge Macarthur further sententiously said
that he did not think the Government should
PROF ecute such case as that against the
defendant, and, under the circumstances,
felt that the court should stand between
the defendant and such prosecution. Mr..
Burgdorf's prosecution was evidently due
to that zeal which seems to take possession
Of many OF our public servants when they

THE management Of our street railroads
needs overhauling aside from the question
of paying taxes. The large crowds of
people who have attended the uptown
theatres during the present week have been
outraged by the neglect Of the railroads to
have proper number Of cars in readiness to
convey the people home after the close of
the performances. Nightly the streets have
been thronged with theatre-gocrs, large
preponderance of whom were ladies, stand
ing shivering in the cold at II o'clock, wait
ing for cars which only appear at long in
tervals, and then the struggle to gain an en-
trance creates a pushing and hauling,
groaning and growing, like distracted hu-
manity at the time Of food, grasping out
for dry land. In every other civilized com
munity street railroad managers provide
plenty of cars for such occasions. A gem
eral shaking up Of the management of our
street railroads by Congress may result in
some accommodation to the people.
