Railroad building is no longer wild
cat. The days of speculative and in
judicious construction have gone with
the era Of land grants and local bond
iugs. Nogrest lines are being projected
and only branches and short feeders
have been put into recent operation.
The natural objection of transpsrts-
ton corporations to legislative re.
straiut which arose from fear that
restrictive laws might injure them, has
osen allayed in great measure by the
Operations OF the commission. Com
panies which were foremost in opposink
tho passage Of an interstate commercs
act are now ready to concese that it Ia
not without its advantages, if not alto
gether what it should be.
The increased earnings, gross and
net, during the year, Of large majority
OF railroads proves not only the salts
factory condition of the cO1ntry's in
ternal commerce, but that the prohibi-
ton OF pooling under the act has not
resulted IN rate wars or dangerous com
petition.

THE train which the Richmond and
Dsnville Railroad have added to their
schedule to run through Raleigh via
Keysyille in Charlotte sounty, leaving
this city in the morning, will be source
of convenience TO all persons doing
business in that part Of North Carolina.
IL will also. We are confident, encourage
North Caroliains along the line Of the
road TO deal more constantly with the
merchants Of cur city by making com
munication as well as passage more
direct and rapid. Every step OF this
kline which our railroads take to bring
Richmond into the bonds of closer
union with North Carolina will ~
dound 10 the advantage Of this
city. That is the field 10
which Richmond will be led to look
more and more every year for trade
Hence no means should be left unem-
ployed TO increase the volume Of bust
ness which our city already does there.
This il ground upon which We can
have no important rival il we make the
most of the advantages which we
already enjoy.

The prediction made at the time thai
the influenza frat broke out in Europe
that it would inevitably spread to thu
country, has now been amply fulfilled
in every particular. IL was, however,
supposed to have reached our shores
some time before it really did, tbs

taken for mild form OF tho epidemic
There can be no question as to the char

the strange visitor has put in a
genuine appearance, he is recognized
to be much more formidable person
age than was anticipated. Here, as il
Europe, the malady has the tendency TO
run into pneumonia or plurisy. 10
New York the death rate has increased
nearly 2j per cent, in consequences of
these complications, and a somewhat
similsr state Of things is observed IN all
parts Of the North where the sickness
has firm hold.
The spidemic has reached Richmond,

however, that it Will be either so extern

The House Of Representatives. rsa'
s.mblsd yesterday upon The termina-
tion Of the usual Christmas holidays. a
very important proportion Of the X
publican members have had during the
course Of the last fortnight, an oppor-
tuuity 10 miDcle with their constiiu
ents. and 10 discover the drift Of public
sentiment with reference to the leading
measures that will como b.fors The
House before the expiration Of the pres
emf session.
Matters have not yet sufficiently DE-
velopsd. either on the floor or m the
committees, 10 enable us to get any
inkliug into the possible effect Of this
coptsst with their consiiiusncies, o.
the Republican ConGrsssmsn. but We
are not disposed TO think that the Att
tude Of those who we're inclined TO th"
most extreme course hss been sub
stantiaily modified. Our latest informa-
ten from Washington leads US to infer
that the wing which Speaker Reeo
represents has been rather strengthened
Than weakened in their determination
TO follow the line Of action which they
laid down At the opening Of the session
a. the one which the interests Of the
Republican party, in their judgment.
required thst they should follow. 1t Is
stated on good authority that this wing.
under tbs direction and with ths assist
snce Of Reed, propose to carry on tie
business Of the House az long as they
possibly car without adoptinga set Of
rules for its guidance, the speaker ,
purpose being to rely upon parliamsn'
taIy ussges and customs in general, sno
where these fail him, 10 make rulinss
purely arbitrary.
The first step will be to take up tie
contested election cases and to press
them to conclusion beforeths rules are
adopted. 1t remains to be seen whether
,he conservative element in the Repub
hoan Congressional delegation will con
ssut 10 this course, which is little sholt
Of revolutionary, having so far awe
can recall, no precedent IN Congress
sionsl history. We cannot believe that
they will either actively or passiveiy
be participants in course 40 plainly
opposed to the best interests OF tht
country and to the dignity and securitl
Of the legislative assembly to which
they belong. This, however, remains
10 be seen.
IL il evident that the Democrats are
prepsrcd to take every prscaution o.
sustain their numerical strength, with
= vis, % entering TO tho best sdVsn.
tars, the struggle now impending.
Thus Dir. Carlisle offered yesterday =
resolution authorizing the oath Of once
20 be- administered TO Mr.. Randall in
his private residence, and also u Messrs
WILDER, Of New Ysrk and Whitthorns
If Tennessee, before the proper local
officers Of their respective States. This
We suppose, was for the purpose Ct
.iving them tho psver Of pairing with
Republican members, if any such mem
bsrs can be found who viii be willing
10 do 30.

indicates that The need of the metrOpo-
lis is rapid trannt 1T has been made
plain during the past six months, says
an expert in our review this morning,
that New York in its realty values j.
suffering in comparison with the
suburbs. and that more rapid transit
must be had. and at once
During the past year there has been
an Unprecedented boom in building &C
tvity and public Improvements in
Brooklyn. IL has been due chiefly %
rapid transit. The same cause will pro
duce the same effect in New York.
The city is suffering from lack Of
transit facilities. People find it more
convenient and less expensive 10 live IN
Jersey and on LoEg Island.
Make the upper part of the meiropo-
lis easily and quickly accessible. and new
homes will spring up there by the thou
sana. The city must demand from the
Legislature provision for this great
want.

posed Such a step, they very properly
declare, would not facilitate the bus-

transact the business as promptly as
