Opening of @ Street.

Mr.. Robert w. Mcpherson has addressed
a communication to the District Comn.is-
sioners in support of the proposition to
open Q street east of 2Sth He says the
proposed Improvement would add greatly
to the comfort Of residents of the city west
of Rock creek. as well as to the public
generally, and would be but simple act
of justice. Mr.. Mcpherson suggests, how
ever, that any Recommendation looking to-
ward it might be property accompanied by
a proviso that the highway and facilities
so provided should not be occupied by the
tracks Of any rapid transit line, which
would, he believes. defeat the benefit de-
signed, but that the bridge proposed to be
erected and the driveway should be use5
only for vehicles and foot passengers.

The condition On board the Concha Lieut.

sixty comfortably, and the invalids and

Ohio Valley Manufacturer: We are
getting well into the Congress cam
palgn, and matters political seem quiet
er than has been usual. The party OF
obstruction and negation, and OF dis
honest criticism, are going into the
campaign In perfect restitution Of a
positive policy. The eastern group OF
states have rejected Organism and free
silverism, and repudlated the general
and particular locofocoIsm OF the So
called, Chicago platform. at least, they
have evaded open adhesion to 1t; and
the question is, what remains, but au-
tomato and stupid obstruction, mega
ton and dishonest criticism. II this re-
pudiatlon means merely shamefaced adj
herence, It is the meanest character Of
dishonesty, an equivocal avoidance Of a
definite attitude and policy.
The assault on the administration,
through trumped up charges Of crlmi-
nal neglect Of the soldiers, is a coward
lV concession, that they are destitute Of
principle and policy, and the party, that
has recourse to such methods, does not
deserve and will not receive the coun-
tenance Of the people.

Why D0yenor should be Ro-oloctsd-Au
UnanSwsrable AFgamSnt
Cold Short in the Ohio Valley Manu-
factuFer has the following strong argu-
ment favoring the reelection OF Con-
gresham Dovener:
Just at this time, Il Is opportune TO
recommend The claims Of Mr.. povener,
the congressional nominee OF the party
OF definite principles, avoWed policies
and declared purposes. Mr.. Dovener
deserves support, not only because ne
represents these unequlvocal principles
proved policies and explicit purposes
but he merits confidence, favor and
success on account Of his faithful care
OF the interests OF his constituents, and
his unsWerving adhesion to the meas
ures, which were proposed and adopted
during his term, for the honest mainte-
nance and advancement OF the policies
which have brought this country, dur
ing the last eighteen months. up to the
very pinnacle OF power and glory. Ac-
cording to the intelligent conception
OF Justice and right the only logical
and equitable way to reward an othcial
or an employe, for the faithful and
successful administration Of trust, Is
to continue him In the position, and re-
tain his services and abilities; on this
ground and in consonance with this
plain concept, Mr.. DoYener should be
reelected.
This Is not the time for radical party
ism; fguratlvely the country is CROSS
ing stream, and the successful emer-
gence from a current, which IS compos-
ed Of somewhat vexing elements, is not
so satisfactorily assured, that II will be
wise to discharge the counsellots and
auxillaEies, who were in position when
the stream was entered, and select new
and inexperienced ones. Something
more and something far larger, than
the fortunes Of political party, is In
Volved in this question; the appeal Is
to the patriot, to the good citizen, and
not to the opportunist and camp follow
er, whose only purpose is to further
party advantages. Any failure by this
country to reap the full and Just reward
Of its victory over the SDaniards, will
diminish Its prestige and influence, and
injuriously affect the positive opportu-
mites and the possibilities OF Its conn
mercial and Industrial interests. Party
ism, OF the locofoco type, is a selfish
pretext, shallow makeshift to excuse
the lack OF principle and policy, there
fore 1t is not the best friend Of good cit
izenship.

The whole situation was badly strain
