WASHINGTON LETTER.
Our WEEKLY
By $. r. BLANToN.

/ promised some weeks ago to tell
your readers something about the
District Of Columbia, and am now
a ont to undertake that task. !
shall not try to tell them all there
is to tell: il might take too much
of your space Elm fact, may make
it continued story affair, and not
try to tell it all at one time.
A large majority Of your readers
are, | imagine. among the farming
class, and as they do not read the
Washington papers, or the Con-
.gressional record, or the annual
District bill, OF the Urgency De-
ficiency Bill, or the Legislative
Bill, /" aud whereas, about 532 men
who compose the House and Senate
and thousands Of others On the
government pay roll whose princi-
pie business is to get something for
nothing, use every endeavor known
to human cunning to keep that
particular class fooled and in the
dark it is not natural that they
should know very much about the
District Of Columbia, its govern
ment, and other things.
The Act known as the organic
law" Of the District, hereinafter
referred to as the Half and Half
Scheme, " was adopted in 1871
quite little while ago. Under
this half and half scheme, the Off
Gals Of the District fix the annual
budget for expenses for the year,
send it to the House of Represen.
tatives, and that body appropriates
half Of thesum from the money in
the U. S. treasury; or in other
words, the people Of these United
States pay half Of the expenses of
running the District government.
But, mind you, the law, as ope-
rated throws most Of the burden Of
the District government on the peo-
pie Of the United States. This is
easily proven from the fact that the
people Of the District pay little or
no tax; the real estate values Of the
District are, according to figures
gotten up by members Of Congress,
$744 100000, bat the owners
thereof II tx only on 1926, 000,-
900. TIE rse.c- " is reassessed
every three years, and the assess
ment this year added $44,000,000
10 the tax values. Moreover, there
is no personal property tax, such
as we have in the States; stocks Of
merchandise which are taxed in the
state according to invoice value,
are put in at less than half, and no
grocery store, however large the
stock, pays any tax or city license.
Let me see ii | make plain the
difference between living in Wash
ington and living in Georgia. In
Georgia, | paid tax on every dol
lars worth Of property, Of every
sort, / owned, to the county tax
collector; then, as / lived in little
town | paid tax again to the city
Hector on everything | owned,
and if | were a business man | paid
a city license to do business, each
requiring a separatelicense, which
went to help defray the expenses Of
the city government. In Wash
ington there is nothing like that:
The Lee County journal. (Leesburg, Ga.) 1904-19??, 1915-03-25

~ you own real estate, you pay tax
on about half, and many times less
than half, Of the value; if you sell
cigars and cigarettes, you pay
$1,000 a year; | have been to the
license department. Of the District
and asked and the polite and clever
official told me there was no license
tax on any other business; SO !
guess he knows and that was cor
rectly informed.
So then we now have an idea Of
the source Of revenue of the Dis
trict Of Columbia proper, and as it
takes more than fifteen million
dollars to run the District for one
year, you can calculate on where it
comes from, the appropriation for
1911 being SIS, 346,3t4.
Congress is getting scarce" -
some Of them-for several months
ago the House by q vote Of 70 to A
adopted rider" to the District
bill, which says, in substance. that
ali monies appropriated under the
bill shall he paid out Of the District
revenues SO far as they are avail
able, and that any deficiency in
the funds shall be paid out Of the
treasury of the United States, pro-
yided it is less than one-half Of the
total appropriation. Heretofore,
the governments half has been
spent first, leaving, the Districts
half to come last, and at this time
there is about So, 900, 900 Of surplus
funds in the District treasury.
The people Of Washington laugh at
the idea of these 73 congressman
trying to abolish, as they call it,
the half and half plan. The
people Of the district are right.
The present membership Of the
House and Senate own too much
property in the District, and stocks
and bonds, to allow this beautiful
scheme Of graft to be disturbed
And righs here ! want to say this
that no member Of Congress who
has been here as long as six months
and has notattacked this so-called
half and half plan, should not be
returned to Congress. 1t is a mat.
ter of impossibility for any intelli-
gent man to be here six months
and not find it out; and if he is a
member Of Congress and does not
assail it, to my mind he is not
a faithful servant Of the people who
sent him here.
Let us note a few of the appro-
priations from this years District
bill:
For the Public schools, 1885,
ll5;
Contingent expenses, $306, h50-
an increase Of $94,850;
Streetimplovement, 81 ,664, 080;
Two new bathing beaches, $S7, :
1876;
For purchase Of land for park
1876, 900;
For municipal fish market, $175,-
800.
want you to notice carefully that
item for $4,000 for a park, for !
am going to refer to it again.
