Editors Dispatch: The article in ycSter-
DAYS Dispatch by Colonel Douglas, in re-
ply TO one written by myself, frankly ad.
nit is a good defence OF tue policy and
management Of the York River and Chesa-
pcakc railroad hut I would say to the Col
onel that, while he wishes to protect the in
terests of his railroad, "I wish to protect
the interests Of oar city, and this only was
my view. I had no idea TO aSSall or cor
dcmn the policy Of the railroad company,
much less TO criticise the able and energetic
management of Colonel Douglas, and so
long as our interests are mutual, or ldentl-
cal, [. for one, and rs one OF the repre-
septativcs Of our citiZens, am perfectly
willing to grant to him o. his railroad all
facilities to compete with opposition, but
whenever our Interests come in conflict,
then | am in favor OF protecting the inter-
ests OF our city by all fair means. Whether
or interests in this case do conflict, |
wished fully to ascertain pu';lic opinion by
calling attention to it, and then to be
guided by its expression. My individual
fears or opinions as to the results OF this
pol!cv on the part OF the Richmond, York
River and Chesapeake and Richmond and
Danyiie railroads are based solely upon
feeling OF interest for the prosperity OF our
city, and not by any means dictated by
spirit of autagonism to this or any other
railroad company, and. so far as Co..
onel Douglas is concerned, entertain
for him personally, and as successful
railroad manager, feelings OF the greatest
respect and Kindness only. But before
closing beg leave to refer to the Colonei's
illustration of relations as between our city
and West Point by citing the case OF Bre-
men and Bremerhafen, on the WeSer, ana
must express my dissent. Ihe ci'y alu
mort of Dremerhafen is pretty much owned
by citizens of Bremen. Dock property
hotels, warehouses, most OF the shipping
and the connecting rairoad-a(l, or mostly
all-are owned by citizcEs OF Bremen III
my information or recol!actIrn serves Inc
rightly. and of course Brencrhafen is en-
tirely subservient. to the interests OF Bre-
men, their interests beirg Identical. But
can all this be said in our case:
