Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Facts and Figures Showing the Discrimination Against the Eastern Portion of the District in Relation to Street Improvements, &C
From the peculiar manner in which the estimates were made by the Commissioners, and which Secretary Sherman, in his letter trans mitting them to Congress, December 10, 1879, denounced as a vio lation of the act Of June 11, 1878, in that they did not Show in de tail the work proposed to be undertaken by them during the fiscal year next ensuing, and the estimated cost thereof, it is impossible for us to show precisely what proportion of this sum of nearly three and a half millions has been expended east of the Capitol; but there are some data which will give an approximate idea.
