ers toward the expenses of the capital was
fixed by law at one-haR.
On the surface of things, this arrange
ment appears fair, but under the agreement
the people Of Washington make a double
contribution. Paying national taxes, direct
and indirect they contribute their proper
tionate share of the national money eX-
pended on the capital, and as local tax
payers they contribute an amount equal
to that supplied by the people of the United
States, including themselves. Thus they
pay taxes on both sides of the partnership
and are doubly taxed without representa-
ton. They are citizens. only for the pur-
pose Of taxation and military service.
While the nation up to 1873 exacted an
excessive and oppressive contribution from
the local taxpayers toward the upbuilding
of the capital. and since that date has re-
quired all that could be eauitably demanded,
it has failed to carry out fully It's own OBJ
legations toward the capital, having neglect
ed these obligations for three-fourths of
century and not offering now to reimburse
payments made on its account during this
season of neglect.
For more than thirty years. the nation
expended less than $500 a year on streets
and avenues. whichswere its exclusive prop
realized 100000 from the sale of donated
lots, the proceeds from which had been
pledged for the benefit of Improvements,
but we're not so expended.
From 1890 to 1873, according to the report
of a Secretary of. the Treasury the Dis
trict Of Columbia expended s14 600 600 more
than the United States in the improvement
Of streets and other work which should
have been done by the general government.
In addition to this sum SIS, 200 was
spent by the people of the District on local
government, schools, and for other munich
pal purposes. The District in assuming the
burden which the nation shirked brought
Itself to virtual bankruptcy In 1885. A
committee of the Senate reported in 1885
that this condition was brought about by
the people of the District, entering upon
expenditures, through motives of public
spirit, which did not properly belong to
them. In recreating the city after 1870, ex-
penditures were again borne by the people
Of the District. which did not justly belong
to them.
Washington's Physical Growth.
The physical growth of Washington has not
been startling. but has been steady. The
city has not arisen in night. Neither has

many towns In America whose history
might be summed up as asvacant lot today,

and heaps OF tin cans next day. But Wash
ington. like Rome, was not built in day.
1t has had little more than one. hundred
years growth. and It has the growth to
show for its age One must keep in mind
that the site of ,the capital was selected not
because of its availability for trade and COM
merce. Trade and commerce were dis

application Of that theory. Men have rarely
been able to give practical application to
the academic dicta of doctrinaires. Wash
