In spite of the fact that the plan to
transform the place into modern
city had been unpopular. Shepherd
had continued the work. The citizens
not only had protested against the Law

in local halls and denounced the plan
OF Improvement. They also accused
the governor of corrupt methods They

creased, and denunciation of the self
Willed governor who refused to change
in the slightest detail his plans for the
transformation of the city was heard
on every hand. In 1874 he was de-
posed as the controlling spirit in the
district Office. At that time he had
/ spent St0.0e0,000 in effecting the
change in Washington, and had left
as an inheritance on the taxpayers

| But the work had been done, or was
| in such stage that 1t had to be com

| the magnificent scale outlined by Shep-

Shepherd returned to Washington
in 1853. after persistent request Of the
taxpayers. The old style or system OF
local government has been changed
/ and instead Of a governor there were
three commissioners. And that was
not the only change he noticed. The
people-the same who denounced him
and his methods in 1S74--were clamor.
ing to entertain him. 1t was great
day for Washington in the summer OF
1895 when TIE people received as theil
welcome and honored guest the mar
who had been driven out of office ir

An open-air reception and banquet
characterized the return Of Shepherd
Many pleasant things were said t.
him. He was praised for having the
foresight to plan. away back in 1874
to make Washington what she was
