RICHMOND, VA, March II, ls9i
To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
II you will allow me just a short space
In your paper. | would like to express the
opinion Of a tax-paying citizen on the
resolution which recently passed the
Board OF Aldermen approprilting $1,000
10 give poor worllingmen work on our
city parks
| consider the right TO crlticise all acts
Of public servants pertaining TO public
affairs the undenable privilege of every
citizen whether through the medium Of
the public press, upon the stump. or 10
their friends In private.
As for the appropriation OF $1,000
10 give work to deserving labor, II meets
with my most hearty approval. There is
no man who sympathizes with the unem-
ployed deserving labor more than do.
/ would that We could give It all work.
I would even like To see our park-keepers
do a little more of it than they do. /
could not have any other feeling for
wor<ingman. for | am not so far removed
from that class myself. But / challeng
any man Of fair judgment to answer
me this question: Do our parks or our
streets need this $1,000 worst? Here is
the question. Take it as it Is. The ap-
pronriation, as far as the help 10 the
workingman is concerned, is good enough.
| am glad to see il. But oh, where had
the Judgment Of the city fathers flown
when they inserted those words: ITO be
expended upon the city parks? Has
il returned? And do they see the error
of their way? Look at the enormous
debt hanging over our city. and the
muddy and dusty streets beneath our
feet TO be paved and guttered We have
been walking upon councilmen's promises
for long time, but they do not make
near so good u walkway as brick and
stone. To spend this money on parks
would be like building a palace OF Ice In
a southern cline. They would look beau
tiful for a while. but ere long there would
be no trace of this beauty left. We are
willing to spend the money to the ad-
vantage OF the poor who need II, but, slrs,
do give us something substantial to show
for IT, The parks are amply beautiful
lust at the present time for the purpose
for which they are mostly used-viz., as
a lounging place for indolent negroes and
idle buns, who never did work or pay
a cent OF taxes, and never will. with a
regiment Of nurses and baby-carriages
thrown in.
We hope these gentlemen sitting In their
palatial quarters in the parental home OF
the city Will not allow their environments
TO deaden their senses OF feeling toward
their less fortunate fellow-men, who have
not felt the pleasant sensation OF having
a gratuitous pass-book over the city
