TUE DAVIS MONUMENT FUND.

The great danger 10 % leaftu Con
corning the movement 10 raise a iund
FOR the erection of a suitable monument
n the memory Of the late Hon. Jeffer-
son Davis. is the Fame which awaits all
suci undertakings. At first, while the
novelty lasts, the enthusiasm is un-
bounded. aud the zeal and energy dis
played are promising Of immediate and
gratifying success. As time passes.
however, zeal il apt to flag, energy to
become depressed, enthusiasm to die
ont. and the movement either drags its
slow length YEARLY along, or is allowed
to fail altogether.
This has been very strikiugly dem
on.tratsd in the proposed monument in
the North to General Grant. As soon
as the splendid pageant which so con
n.cuously marked the funeral of that
Federal leader vas dismissed it was an
nounced that q S2,000,0 900 monument
WAS to be Immediately erected to per-
petua.e his memory. AT the outset, 80
loud was the flourish Of trumpets, and
a. elusive wero the promises of contIi-
buttons. that it locked as if the entire
,um would he subscribed at once. But
interest speedily waned, and after d
few sporadic attempts at obtaining the
money. resulting in all, in raising a
bare modicum OF the amount, the ef-
fort has been, to all appearances, virtu-
ally abandoned.
1t is most earnestly 10 DO hoped that,
for the credit Of the South, no such ex-
psrience is in store for the Davis monu-
ment. No lofty S2,OOO,00O pile isex-
pccted to memorialize the name and
fame Of the leader Of the Southern
Confederacy in tho recent conflict
ior the principle of State sovereignty
aud local self government among the
aegre cation of Republics which
composed the one great Republic
Of the United States. 1t is by
no means likely, indeed, that any
mute testimony Of stone will be neces-
"a to perpetuate the name of Jeffer-
son Davis, for in his long land busy ca
reer, he, like Horace OF old. erected for
himself a monument more enduring
than brass. The South owes it to her
self. however, TO show at least some re-
gard for the memory Of her distin-
guished leader, who, after the war had
ended disastrously to the cause he rep
resented, became the vicarious sufferer
fof the sins OF the whole Southern peo-
lple.
At the recent organization Of the
Southern Press Monument Association,
10 New Orleans, it was agreed that
500 GOO would be sufficient to raise
such a monument as would be de-
siable, the sum to be devoted to its
erection at any locality finally decided
On as most fitting. 1t was also re-
solved to appeal to the Southern press
as large to asi,ate this matter, 10, as far
as in them lies, to prevent popular feel
iog on this subject from lsrguishing.
THIS is the plain duty of the Southern
press, and one which they should all
BE- prompt to recognize.

A LADY's VIEW OF OUR STREET

We give the following communica
ton, which is only one of many on the
same important subject. which we have
received, a place in our editorial col
umns, as it very justly ana forcibly eIs
presses the feelings OF Richmond ladies,
with reference TO the foul condition of
our streets, against which we have Of
fered the most emphatic and earnest
protest. There is no part OF our com.
muni,y who suffer more acutely or con-
tiouously from the evil consequences OF
this standing nuisance than our women,
vita whom cleanliness is truly next to
goodness.
Eitor Of the Times:
must thank you, in the name Of all the
ladies and other decent folk" Of Rich
mond, for your timely article headed
" sahara" II is a disgrace 10 our city and
90 civilization that our streets are i'm such a
condition as they are allowed to remain
unsNept. unwatered, disgusting, unwhole-
some uncomfortable.
know more than one recent WISH
tor TO our city who would avoid
IL henceiorth as they would the
plague, simply on account of the dirty
streets. To take into ones lungs the dust
laden air, with all its impurities. is enough
IL produce a pestilence. For weak lungs or
delicate thrOats il il almost fatal. Our ewes
are IN a chronic state of Inflammation from
the same cause. our temper in CORES
pUnding state Of irritation. our clothes
ruined, our houses injured, our curtains.
carpets, furniture rendered SO dingy in a
few weeks 10y the dust sitting through every
opening of our houses as 10 add seriously 10
every ones personal and household ex-
penses.
During the summer months the residents
on our principal thoroughiares meet the
flll expense Of having these streets watered.
they would do it in the winter months also
when nee essary, probably, If they can get
1T done no other way. But il is a shame
that place Of the size and importance of
Richmond should depend at any time on
private support for this necessity 20 health
and cleanliness.
he CITY authorities ought 10 give this
matter due attention. Id is far more i'm
poitant than the grading and mending of
The streets now In progress, and if we can
have but the one improvement il should he
keeping the streets free from such impuri-
tieo as render our walks and drives pen
ancc instead Of pleasure-aa injury 10
oui health instead Of a benefit. We may
not effect any change by writing about il, |
but az least II will show that we are not In |
different as c,izeus 20 the laws Of health, |
decency, and refinement. X.

~FIREMEN's ~ToURNAMENT.
Wyoming, Salt Lake 4 California.

A contract was let yesterday by the
Wyoming, Salt Lake & California railroad.
to a Danish contractor for ten miles OF
grading east of this city up through Emf
grafton canyon. He will make two grad
ing camps and begin work at once.
1t is learned that Fred Simon and Nick
Treweek have identified themselves with
the Wyoming, Salt Lake & California
Railway, and some energetic work in the
way of pushing that enterprise may now
be looked for. Heretofore these gentle
men have been uniformly successful in
their business undertakings, and it is to
be hoped that this will be no exception.
When the importance of the project to
this city is understood, they expect to re-
ceive such support and assistance
from the citizens as may be needed. Some
interesting developments MAJ be looked
for in a few days in connection with this
matter

jess Loomis. of the First National
bank has imported a pigs in clover puz-
zle,' the first to reach Cheyenne. 1t is
the latest thing out and already rivals the
noted Is puzzle.
The inventor of the pigs in clover"
puzzle is Moses Lyman, a farmer living
near Wavcrly, N. Y. he has a large
number of children and keeps a great
many pigs. One day he wished to amuse
his youngsters, and the idea of his ia
nous puzzle came into his head. He
thereupon made out of a piece of wood
and a little pasteboard the original of
the pigs in clover" A toy manufactur-
ing firm at Elkland, Tigo county, Pa,
heard of the puzzle and made him a
handsome offer, which he accepted, for
the exclusive right to patent and manu-
facture the plaything. A fortune has al
ready been made out of the fascinating
little device.

of the inspectors from Chicago, Omaha,
st. Paul and Pacific Junction, also of
cattle killed on the Wyoming division of
the Union Pacific, are On file in my Office
and open to inspention. Before another

attention to such changes in the present
law as should necessarily be made to
make it more effective. | will not attempt
to point out at this time defects that

the subject, SO that some concerted action
can be taken before the legislature con-

ROUND UPS.
The principal business of the open SEES
sion was the division of the territory into
round up districts, and the selection of
round up commissioners. The duties of
the latter, who are under bond to the
territory, are defined in the statutes.
They exercise a general supervision over
the gathering, branding and distribution
of cattle and disposition of mavericks.
These gentlemen, representatives of all
districts, we're made a committee to de-
eide upon routes and nominate round up
commissioners: AL Bowie, s. Doty, II.
K. Tescherhacher, Co. Fisher, L. Voor-
