A MILLION FOR sIDEwALKs.

The Collectors report for 1887,
which is printed in another column of
this paper, shows the financial affairs
Of the city to be in excellent condi-
tion. The increase in the receipts
amounted to S527, 1854, or 25 per
cent. over the amount received in
1886.
This large increase in the revenues
docs not represent the increase in the
amount Of taxable property, although
there were more houses built and
more money spent in building than in
any previous year, and almost as
much as during the two years pre-
Vious.
As the United States pays half tho
expenses of the District, every dollar
of increase in the revenues really
imeans two dollars for the District, and
the half million increase will repre-
sent u whole million for improve
ments
The CRITIC suggests that this extra
million be put into sidewalks. 1t is
well known that we have the worst
sidewalks and the best streets in the
country, andt the time has now come
when something should be done for
this class of improvements. Hereto
fore the money has gone on the
streets, and the sidewalks were
patched a little here and there when
the public "safety and health" re-
quired it and when citizens divided
the expense of a sidewalk with the
District.
The Commissioners think they can
get good sheet sidewalk for 81 per
yard, and million yards Of side
walks would work wonderful inn
provement in the city. Estimating
the, sidewalks to be fifteen feet wide,
il would pave nearly sixty miles Of
ostreets on both sides.
~ All other public Improvements are
free, and citizens should not be COM
PEELED to pay for sidewalks when the
city has money to lay them.

Mr.. I.nmar's Opinion OF the Const
tutiona1 Amendments.

Mr.. Inmar's Opinion OF the COnsti.
tutionai Amendments.
II is hard, says the New York Herald, to
chase down the Bourbon Republican nc.
cusations against Secretary Lamar An
Indiana Republican conference some days
ago asserted that he "refused to declare
the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments valid and binding" There
upon we quoted from a speech OF Mr..
Lamar in the House of Representatives in
June, 1874, this paragraph:
In q word they uhe Southern people, regard
the new amendments OF tho Consultation,
which secure TO the black race freedom, ctl.
zenship and suffrage, TO be not less sacred and
nviolable than the original charter as II came
from the hands of the fathers.
That settled the. Indiana conference, but
the same old falsehood now turns up In
different shape--that Mr.. Lamar IN the
Senate voted against resolution declaring
the amendment binding. If the inventor
of this tale had looked at the official re-
cord he would have found that Senator
Edmunds voted against such resolution
and Senator Lamar for II. Mr.. Edmunds
was in fact caught in his own trap. He
has habit of stirring up his Democratic
friends by an occasional buncombe reso-
luton, and on the 9TH of January, 1879,
he introduced n set of resolutionsl
one OF which, very needlesslyi
affirmed the validity and binding force Of
the amendments, which nobody had quesi
toned. The remainder were so clearly
mere partisan buncombe that Senator
Morgan Of Alabama resolved 10 see IL
Senator Edmunds meant business or was
merely bent on claptrap. He Hereford
moved the following substitutes
Resolrsd, as me Jttdg0,snt Of tho Senate That
the thirteenth. fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments 10 the Constitution Of the United
states are as valid and binding rs any othet
part Of the Constitutions that the people OF
the United States lave common interest iri
the enforcement Of the whole Constitution ln
every state and In the Territories of thd
United states and that II Is alike the right
and duty Of the United states so far US tho
power has been delegated To them, TO enforce
said amendments aud 90 protect every citizen
In the exercise Of all the rights thereby sci
cured.
The official record shows that Senator
Edmunds voted against this resolution!
which in the most positive manner del
clares the amendments binding, and ash
serts the duty of the Federal Government
TO enforce them
1t also shows that Senator Lamar voted
for il.

TIE ONLY WAY IN which the ques-
tion of pensions can ever be satisfac-
torily settled is by some sort of gen
eral service bill under which all the
old veterans shall come in for slice
of the Treasury surplus without re-
gard to disabilities. This was done
for the soldiers of the Revolution, the
war of 1872 and the Mexican war. 1t
seems rather early to begin with such
Legislation in the case of the civil war,
but the ranks of the Grand Army are
rapidly thinning aid the Government
cannot wait much longer without in
curing the suspicion that it wants to
shirk plain duty.

true version of the experience of Hon.
Beriah wilkins, Member of Congress, on
the raging Potomac, last Wednesday, and
also complete list of the names of the
crew who were with him in his terrible
encounter with Neptune. The names are
as follows: Admiral John Paul jones'
ordinary seaman, Gen. Geo b. Williams;
midshipmite Charlie Thompson; sailor
man, Oscar Woodward of the Patent Of
flee; skipper Bcriah wilkins. We call
the story:
BERIAH WILKINS, THE NAVIGATOR.
Twas ON the wild Potomac,
The stream that runneth down
Past washing brooks and torrents,
And on past Washingtown,
That lately, several seamen,
Who do not wear the blue,
Sailed, with Beriah wilkins
As skipper of the crew.
When off the coast of Sanadar,
The clouds grew thick and black,
And gusts of wind blew pillows
Like mountains in their track.
The agitated vessel
Plunged high aloft and fell,
And every able seaman
Remarked: "Don't this beat ----Y
Then bold Beriah Wilkins,
A sailor tried and true,
Stood on the deck and shouted:
"Ho cut the boom intow
An instant, and BeIiah
Felt strangely queer inside,
And weeping for his dinner,
He gave 1t 70 the tide.
The vessel kept on heaving,
Beriah heaVed the more
Till, in fit of weakness,
Beriah took the floor.
He gazed across the waters
With many a yeamful yeaTn,
And mulmured "Alr, Speaker,
] move that we adjourn"
A last the hardy seamen
Took wilkins from the floor,
And tenderly they laid him
Upon the firm dry shore.
Then spoke the bold Beriah,
so fearless, yet so pale,
81 thank you, noble seamen
Let's all return by rail "
And so they did, that evening,
But, rs The mail was late,
Beriah and his sailors
Returned 10 town by freight
lis better, said Beriah,
Rejecting on the gale,
And when next go sailing,
I'll walk, or 20 by rail
Friend to Frank New Year night; All,
Frank, did you make any calls to-day? $

Coal sells for s25 ton in Pasadena,

GENERAL CLINTON b. FISK explains that

pay Ill Exchange.
The explanation may explain, but
il does not justify such an unwar-
ranted use of the lady's name, and
the Prohibition cause suffers quite as

Mt does by the oifense itself.
