BLOOMSBURG, FA.

THURSDAY, JANUARY ~ 1901.
Battered al the Post once at bloomsbury, Pa,
IS second class matter, March !, 1889.
Evening star., 1901-02-25

The Stars real estate column Saturday con-
tanned information of new building enter
prise which is to give Pennsylvania avenue
another handsome modern construction, on
the south side between 9th and 10th streets.
This is in itself gratifying information. 1t
promises to better in measure the rather
deplorable conditions of avenue construc-
tion. and will thus be an immediate item
of city improvement. But there is another
side to the matter. This building, which
Will represent a considerable investment,
lies within the bounds of the area chosen
by general public judgment as the proper
site for future government buildings, and
virtually set apart for that purpose in the
official mind. The Star has repeatedly
urged immediate action toward putting
this project of condemning the entire tri-
angle lying between the avenue and the
Mall upon the basis of actual execution. 1t
has shown how economical would be pres
ent progress, how extravagant further de-
lay. 1t has demonstrated how even piece
meal condemnation within the area would
swell the final total of the governments
bill through the gradual increase in values
caused by occasional public purchases and
betterments. Now comes a case precisely
in point. The Improvement of the building
in question virtually amounting to a new
construction will add a large sum to the
ultimate purchase price of the square when
the government comes to take it for it's
own uses. Not only will the immediate lot
be made to cost more, but the value of
every lot in the same square will share the
increase in value by this betterment.
1t is not fair to the private owners of the
lands in question to permit them to pro-
ceed indefinitely with their improvements
while the possibility of ultimate condem-
nation and its consequent unsettlement
hangs over their heads. 1t is not fair to
the capital to hold back from either public
or private advancement so extensive and
SO conspicuous and important a stretch of
land 1t is not fair to the government to
cause it to pay large premiums for it's pur-
chases lot by lot and square by square
when it might easily be given the benefit
of its own enterprise and allowed to pur-
chase at the lowest price this land will ever
bring.
