in general. except as to the privilege of
choosing town or. county officers, to place
the residents of the District upon the

gress would be a compromise between

tional control over the capita. The
wisdom of this course is sustained by
all the arguments which go to show
that tine constitutional power of ''eS-
elusive legislation by Congress should
not be hastily Yielded. and also by those
which maintain that taxation without rep
