ELECTS IN TAXING SYSTEM

Written for The Star by Louis P. Shoemaker.
Much has been said and much has been
written upon the subject of suitable form
of government for the District of Columbia.
Imbued, as we of Washington are, with a
feeling Of PATRIOTISM sustained by a high
appreciation of the fundamental principles
upon which the government of our nation
has been established and guaranteed, we
hope, In perpetuity by the Constitution of
the United States, affording, it does,
protection to life, liberty and property, we
recognize the American Idea of civil and
religious liberty, seek protection from the
vice, the hardship and the injustice Of be-
ing taxed without representation, and We
entertain a keen feeling of regret in that
the question of a suitable form of govern
ment for the District Of Columbia has to be
raised SO often before 1t can be finally set
tied.
1t Is decidedly unfortunate for US that We
American citizens of the District desiring
to respect and even love our American in
situations as crystallzed in the Declaration
Of Independence, are constantly put to
shame and Inundated before the civilized
world by the conscious knowledge that here
in the capital of q free and Self-goVerned ma
ton 325,O00 intelligent, patriotic citizens Of
the country should be compelled to wear the
Drdnu OF lnleflOTlty ana Dc governed Dy
strangers to their needs and taxed without
representation, which Is regarded by all
who claim to remember and cherish the
foundation principles of the American revo-
luton as the essence Of tyranny. Our hu-
initiation is not lessened by the fact that
our worthy President, who has done, and is
still doing much to guard and protect
the rights of the people of the states of the
Union, should fail to see and recognize that
the people of this District are being de-
prived of that first great right, without
which there is no guaranty for any other

Small Voting Population.

If we have a population of more than $685.
600 people, out of which there are only
80, 600 land owners and taxpayers, 1t can be
readily perceived what a small portion of
our entire population win be called upon
to vote. Thus, only that portion OF our
white and colored population who have prop
erty interests and thereby support the gov
eminent will very properly have voice
in the management of municipal and
corporate affairs. Then we will have cor
pOrat1On managed as Other corporations are
manag ed-upon business principles and by
those who are interested intrinsically and
financially in it's welfare.
Restricted or qualified suffrage exists else
where in our country; why not here? A
republican form of government is every
where enjoyed by our people except at the
capital of our nation. Better, then, that we
should have qualified and restricted
American form of government than that
which Is wholly un-American.
Congress cannot lose Its control over the
District of Columbia, nor can the United
States be relieved of the obligation to pay
half or more than half Of just and proper
of the expense necessarily incurred for the
care and improvement of the Capital city
by allowing the people to select their own
Commissioners, administer their own af-
fairs subject to the authority of Congress,
no more than Congress is in danger of los
ing It's control and right to legislate eXclu-
svely on national questions, because the
people of the various states look after their
local affairs.
Congress now delegates powers, and per-
haps, too many, to Commissioners who are
not chosen by the people. Why not delegate
powers to Commissioners elected by the
people under proper restrictions by those
who own property, pay taxes and support
the government, subject to the authority Of
Congress? Why not also provide for rep
| resentative in Congress, whose duty 1t
would be to look after District matters be-
fore Congress. and the committees of Con-
gress, without interfering with the various
ever.
