Take away from the People'sparty the

Take away from the Peoples party the
money loaning scheme and its appetite
for Office, and it wouldn't keep over
night. And yet one occasionally meets
supporter of that party who says that
he doesn't favor the sub-treasury plan;
then why not unite with the Republican
party, the party of the people and for
the people: This Peoples party know
and admit that it must have the support
of majority of the people before it can
gain control of the government or its
legislation, in view of which fact why
not add their forces to the Republican
party and control Its policy and actions !?
Majority rule must obtain in party action
as well as in the management of the
government, fact that is too patent to
need argument. From all of this it
must be clear to everyone that the real
object of the Peoples party is to restore
the Democratic party to power, to ac-
complish which the Republican party
must be defeated, and they have adopt
ed this roundabout way of accomplish
ing it.

TO IMPROVE GREAT FALLS.
Capitalists VIII Build a Railroad and
Make 1t a Summer Resort.

A company is being organized in this city
to be known as the Great Falls Construction
Company, which has for its object the i'm
proyement of the territory adjacent to Great
Falls and that lying between that place and
Washington. The company is composed of
number of conservative gentlemen with large
capital to back them. Their first step will be
the construction of some rapid means of
transit between this city and Great Falls.
Whether it will be an electric or steam road
has not as yet been decided, With this object
in view the property between the two places
has been carefully surveyed and options OBJ
tanned along the line of the proposed route.
The only difficulty to be met with in the con-
struction OF the road will be the obtaining OF
a right of way through Georgetown. bill
was introduced in the last Congress by cor
poration named ''The Washington and Great
Falls Electric Railroad Company" to grant
them a charter for road between the places
mentioned. The bill was reported favorably
during the last week of the session, and In the
rush of business failed to pass. The company
which is now being organized Will also apply
to Congress for charter for this purpose.
The new company Will endeavor to make
Great Falls a summer resort, but should this
fail some method of utilizing the power pro-
duced at the Falls by the erection of factories
will be devised The means of transit, how
ever, will be the first question settled.

A SUMMER QUIET
HAS SETTLED ON THE REAL ESTATE
MARKET.
The Usual Thing at This Time of the
Year-Many Sales of Residence Lots,
But No Large eTransactions-Buildi
Operations Fairly Active.

The usual midsummer dullness has begun
to settle on the real estate market. There is
nothing unexpected or disturbing in this. 1t
is always looked for by the dealers, who
rather welcome it than otherwise, especially
when there has been fair activity during
the spring months The transactions the
past spring were not up to those of the pre-
vious spring. But then 1890 was rather a
boom year in Washington real estate and it
is recognized law of trade that unless in
exceptional circumstances, as when from ex-
traordinary causes town is enjoying rapid de-
velopment, quiet year always succeeds one
of great activity. In the growth OF Washing
ton In the present decade there have been no
exceptional causes at work. There has been
no sudden inflow of capital or population
here, such as occurs In a new country or is
produced by special effort at encouraging
manufactures. The growth of Washington
is nearly altogether due to the gradual in
crease of the work OF the Government and
the diffusion OF knowledge among wealthy
people in all parts of the country regarding
Washington's exceptional attractions as
place OF residence. This brings here from
season to season hundreds OF new families,
who buy property, build fine houses, and set
up winter homes for themselves. So that the
slight falling off in real estate activity the
past spring as compared with the spring of
1890 was generally looked for and has occa-
stoned no disappointment or alarm. 1t has
been accompanied by no tendency toward a
slump in the prices OF real estate.
Holders are just as firm as ever, even in the
least sought of the suburban regions, despite
the oft-repeated cry that there is too much
suburban property on the market and that
prices must come down before marked activity
could be resumed and any further advances
could be made. There are in the suburban
market no indications that holders are getting
tired and no property is offered at a sacrifice.
The confidence that slow but steady ad-
vance is certain as the population increases and

vile is a tract OF land Just thrown into the
market. opened up by MIR. Nichols, of Irving
Park, Chicago. This subdivision has the ad-
vantage OF lots Of one acre and more In area,
and is already we'll shaded by large oak, pine,
and maple trees, not over one-fourth of mile
from Riverdale station and one-half mile
from Hyattsvile depot. 1t has four pretty
homes, and the situation is not only high and
healthy, but the water is unusually good,
which is not so in many of these subdivisions.
The distance by the New Cut Road and via
Brookland and Glenwood is not over five
miles from North Capitol street, nearer by,
one and three-fourth miles than Hyattsville
depot. Immediately opposite on handsome
hill stands Dr. Bliss new and commodious
mansion and factory for manipulation of
patent medicines, erected this year; also the
residences of Mr. Heurch, j. r. H. Deakins,
and Mr.. Morrison, who supplies the Washing
ton and other bars with the law as printed.
North of Hyattsvile where once stood the
fine old brick mansion, porters lodges and
mural surroundings of the late Charles B.
Calvert, descendent of the Lords of Balti
more, is the subdivision of the Riverdale
Park Company, under the.agency of Mr.. w.
w. Danenhower and the ownership of
New York syndicate. The ground has been
handsomely laid out, with graded streets,
graveled and shaded. Many excellent
houses have been built by the company, and
are being sold for small monthly payments.
From the surrounding country the location
appears low and foggy, but when actually on
the ground the topography is much more
pleasing. An immense amount OF moRey
has been brought into the communities by
these subdivisions and farming lands or
trucking soils have been forced further from
the railroad and in consequence land for a
mile or more out has doubled in value. Roads
have been improved and general tone of
prosperity has been diffused into all trades
and occupations around. Indeed, the brick
machine and carpenter are both too scarce
and certainly too high. lumber, brick,
lime, hair, cement, asphalt company formed
in the neigbborhood would do well and reap
handsome returns in the near future, besides
the immediate impetus it would give to all
of these subdivisions.

HYATrsv1LnE's ATTRACTIONS.
Some OF the Inducements 1t Offers to Those
Who Wish Suburban Homes,

SOho OI Uhe e1huucSIn0nUS In0S0
Who Wish Suburban Homes.
Mr.. Waters, of the firm of Waters & Thomp-
son, is strong believer in the future O f
Hyattsville. He said the other day: ''Hyatts-
vile with its 800 Inhabitants presents, in my
opinion, greater inducements than any other
place within the same distance OF Washing
ton. Those who desire homes free from the OBJ
jectionable features of the city and at the
same time wish to retain the conveniences that
can only accompany popular localities can
have their wishes gratiied here. While the
town is a country place, with beautiful
scenery and pleasant walks and drives, so
that person il he feels disposed to isolate
himself from the rest of humanity can do so,
yet at the same time he is within stones
throw of nearly all the comforts of a great
city. They are physicians ready to respond
to the call of the sick by day or night; schools,
both public and private, compare favorably
with any in the State outside the cities;
churches of different denominations, the
various local organizations OF which have the
tendency of uniting the social interests of the
peoples Masonic and Mechanics lodges, the
free-delivery system, good grocery and drug
stores, wood and coal yards, and other institu-
tions which make the place self-sustaining.
''The growth of the town is proof of the
estimation in which these advantages are held.
Fifteen to twenty-five houses are erected an
nually, large percentage OF them being built
from loans furnished for the purpose by the
Hyattsville Building Association, one of the
most flourishing institutions of the place.
The splendid railroad service furnished by
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad thirty trains
stopping daily-and its proximity to Wash
ington, being but a short drive over good
roads, make Hyattsville practically suburb
and within easier access than any other place
near the CITY,"

Most OF the large dealers the past week re-

mer dullness extending over a couple of
months. Outside capitalists who have been
looking over the field here with view to in
vestment and the large operators who reside
here have left town for the summer, or are
preparing to leave. They don't care to
worry themselves about real estate deals in
the warm weather, and will allow matters to
stand as they are until autumn.

A Good Idea From India.

IHuIan EuKIHttTIHB'
We observed during our late visit to Bonn
bay that all the public buildings have marble
slabs erected in some conspicuous position
giving information with regard to their con-
struction. Besides noting under whose gov
ernorship the building took shape, We saw
that the names of the architect, executive,
and other engineers connected with the opera
tions, the dates of the commencement and
completion OF the work and (nota bene) the
estimated and actual costs OF each structure
were given. These last items of information
should, where furnished, have particularly
marked effect in checking extravagances, and
we therefore put forward the suggestion that
the Bombay procedure should be generally
followed in the case of all public buildings.
