One eject OF a war between the republican
Senators and the President will be to bind the
democratic party more closely together OF
iate some rather threatening symptoms OF dis
indignation have appeared, but If the issue is
sharply drawn on the offices, a cause is afforded
which Is proverbial tor its cohesive power,
For this reason IL may be that the democratic
leaders will welcome little persecution, I'm the
belief that ihe blood of martyrs will be tho
seed OF the party.

In another column OF tO-day's paper will be
found communication which puts the matter
OF unpaid taxes in the District in a much more
favorable light than does the report of the Com
missioners upon the subject, in regard to which
THE STAR took occasion to offer some COM
ments the other day. 1t appears from this
showing that the amount in default is not
really so large as the figures sent in would in
dictate; but the need of a better system OF titles
10 property bought at tax sales as urged in the
article referred TO is none the less. One great
objection to the uncertainty OF such titles is
that they prevent Improvements being made,
and thus stand in the way of the growth and
prosperity oil the city. On that account alone,
nfor no other reason, q reform in this respect is
needed.
