Public speaking in this District.


To the Democratsitis of no consequence
whether the Republicans of this district
nominate candidate or give their support
TO an independent" One or the other
thing they will do. and in either event We
will have our old enemy TO fight.
Furthermore the opponent OF Hon.
GEoRef d. WISE will be MALONE man.
The little General will see 10 that, you may
be sure.
Mr.. WEE. we repeat. is entitled to q re-
trial a, the polls of the case of WADDrIL rs.
WISE. but il seems that this pleasure will
be denied him.
Mr.. WISE has arranged number OF APP
pointments and will make thorough can
vass of this district. and TO bear him COM
pany he will have several of his brother
congressman. 1t will be refreshing to hear
them discuss Speaker REED, the force bill,
the proposed tariff. and those pension ex-
trayagances which threaten TO empty the
Treasury and make necessary searches for
new subjects of taxation.
We Join in the fear expressed by the New
York san that first whiskey and then to-
bacco will be seized upon for increased
taxation 10 make good the deficits in the
Treasury. This will hardly be attempted
at this session, for the Republican leaders
are not LET ready TO admit the possibility OF
any deficit. but i'll the winter the facts Will
confront them. and then we may fear
mischief.
All these things Mr.. WISE and his CO.
laborers will discuss. and we expect to hear
that the meetings are attended by UMPIRE
cedented crowds of earnest and deter
mined Democrats.
The canvass is going to be interesting
and instructive. The better the issues are
understood the larger will be our majority.

The Debt.

The OLcorT- CLEVELAND Committee are
steadily at work "hiving" Virginia bonds,
ms the important preliminary step in ar
ranging debt-adjustment.
SO far securities of the face value of
$4,000. 900 or Sl5,0OO,OOO have been de-
posted in accordance with the terms OF the
agreement proposed by the committee to
its creditors. but il is not known to the
public whether these securities consist
altogether of bonds, or bonds and de-
tached coupons.
The net result of the new assessment
shows but small increase in the value of
Virginia lands Our revenues will remain,
therefore, about as at present for the next
five years, unless proposition for settle
ment is made in form so captivating that
the General Assembly will feel bound to
accept it. even though by doing so it will
become necessary TO reach out a little for
new subjects of taxation.
hayefrequently expressed the opinion
that the people OF Virginia, Democrats and
Republicans, Will refuse all offers not
based upon the RIDpLEBERGER bll but in
the adjustment of the many nice questions
that have arisen and will arise in the lapse
Of time since that measure became law
we can, within the limits of our means,
afford TO be liberal in order to dismiss this
irritating subject forever.
There is no chance tor the debt ques-
ton 10 intrude itself upon this campaign,
for 1t Will be months before any scheme
can be formulated. Next year. however,
there will be lots Of debt talk.

Street-Car Stops.

There is nothing inherent in the electric
motor system which prevents strcet-cars
stopping and starting on up-grades. IL Is
simply question of power. If So-horse
power motors will not allow II. 50-horse
power no doubt will.
In Albany, n. Y. where strcet-cars are
operated by the THoMPsoN-HoCsToS over
head-wire system they are stopped to put
on or take on passengers on street the
grade Of which is greater than that OF
our Ninth street between Main and Broad.
Furthermore these Albany cars have
enclosed platforms. To enter or leave
them the conductor opens a gate or door.
The advantage is that you always get on or
of on the safe side of the track. e.,
not upon the other track where the un-
wary person may be struck down by n
moving car.
We are satisfied with the efforts now
being made to improve the Richmond car
service. and shall not urge the adoption OF
these features at present, but we conf
IDENTIFY await the time when it will no
longer be considered necessary to refuse
10 stop q car on the steepest ascent we
have here in Richmond. for we have none
longer or sharper than that OF the main
street of Albany.

WONDERFUL COUNTRY


To he Editor of The Dispatch:
The convention in Mississippi for the
purpose Of reforming the organic law of
that State has responsibilities resting upon
IL that reach outside of Mississippi. both
northward and southwark. In fact, il
might not be going too tar to say that
Mississippi Is now engaged in service TO

tiers SO vital. not only 10 all the South but
TO oil the Union. that 20 fail 10 adjust them
will be almost 70 confess failure in testing
the compatibility of existing political con-
ditlons In the South with the continuance
OF free and fair government in this country,
Since the times IN which the patriotic
statesmen immediately succeeding the
revolution lived there has been no time so
filled with consequential accountability as
this; no men with such momentous work
upon their hands as the men Of
the present day who are hon.
estly and intelligently endeavor-
Ing 10 save the South and the country from
the direful domination Of the worst over
the best elements that make up the body
polite OF this great American republic.
As the one State more menaced by negro
ignorance than any other State, 1T Is
meet that Mississippi should accept the
issue in advance Of the crisis that il her.

grave sense Of the situation in all its bear

The Judgment Of worthy citizons, whose
positions and intelligence make their adj
vice valuable. is that the Council should
create the office of inspector of buildings.
This, too. is the often expressed view of
the Dispatch.
Such an officer could do much to facili-
tate the operations of builders, and might
be made also the arbiter in many property
onwers' disputes that are now referred to
the courts.
Most of tho other growing cities of the
country have found it advisable to have
such an inspector, and we believe the time
is at hand when Richmond should follow
their example.

Coz tho excellent reason that as his vote af-
foc.s other mems interests. other men have
an overruling right to be protected from

Union there are voters who have no APP

sufficient numbersin every State to leopard

and consequently there is little danger from
them. This is not true, however. as TO
these southern States of ours. Unfor-
tnnately. the contrary is true. And Mis-
a;ssippi being conspicuously cursed with
the Grass ignorance of the negro. so largely

men of the convention may well set them

distasteful certainly, but better that than

difficulty would be found in making it ope-
ratively effective. a practically signifylng

Mississippi free from all apprehension OF

safe from the ever-recurring menace OF
the dominance of the negro and his self
seeking white allies. IL would give
ms peace III politics on this side
of the Potomac at least, and enable

yancement and less for the defence of our

Archbishop Ryan's Joke on the Cardinal.
baltimore SUM-

Archbishop Ryan, of Philadelphia. was
in Baltimore on Tuesday as che guest of
Cardinal Gibbons. He came over In the
morning, and with the Cardinal went to
St. Mary's Seminary, where the prelates
dined. The purpose OF the Archbishop's
visit was 20 help distribute the collections
that have been made in all Catholic do
ceses for negro and Indian missions. Car
dinal Gibbons. Archbishop Ryan. and
Bishop Kahn. Of Wheeling. are committee
10 superintend this distribution. Rev. air.
Dyer, Of the seminary. is treasurer OF the
fund. Bishop Kahn was not present at
the meeting of the committee Tuesday.
Archbishop Ryan left for his home on
late afternoon tram. Among the plea
santries related during dinner the follow
ing incident which was told by the Arch
bishop was enjoyed as a good joke op the
Cardinal: During the summer the two pre-
lates spent some time together at Bar Har-
Dor. One day soon after their arrival the
Cardinal. who prides himself on his pedes-
srian qualities, suggested walk, de-
clsring IL his purpose TO test the Arch
bishops physical endurance. For the
first mile the Cardinal proved the better
walker, and went far ahead OF his compan-
ion. Soon afterward he began TO flag. They
then journeyed on together some miles
further, until steep ascent rose abruptly
in front OF them. The Archbishop pro-
posed that they 60 TO the top, but the
Cardinal was not equal to the emergency
and declined the challenge. On the return
journey it was found that the Cardinal had
overtasked himself in his efforts TO MAN.
tam his reputation as walker and the
Archbishop was forced to call o carriage TO
convey him back 10 the hotel. While per-
fectly fresh himself. he says, he got in
with the Cardinal 70 spare the latter's
feelings.

Mississ;ppl's Constitution.


II Mississippi cannot otherwise save her
self from negro domination she will be
justified in enfranchising cert ain Of her
noble women; but this should be the last
resort.
The structure of southern societyis such
that an innovation of this character can
be made only at great risk.
We rejoice that the Committee on the
Elective Franchise submitted their report
with this feature omitted. leaving it to be
presented. if at all, as q supplement.
Probably the expedients already proposed
to limit suffrage to those classes whose in
telIgence and stake in the community
make them worthy will meet oil the de-
mands Of the situation. We hope so.
An interesting question is whether the
convention is bound TO submit the new Con-
stitution to the people for ratification or
rejection, or whether il has the coDstitu-
tonal power 10 adopt il rs fnality. The
Judiciary Committee has been instructed
TO inquire into this matter. There are
some indications that the tinality view
prevails with members.
The convention seems disposed 10 auopt
an amendment providing that the school
money shall be expended in the counties
and cities where il is collected. The effect
will be TO return these funds to the CON-
munities that pay them.
This lis another experiment we shall
watch with interest. There is consider
able sentiment in Virginia favoring this
mode Of distribution of public school
moneys here. but the arguments against II
are strong, and have prevailed so far.
The men of Mississippi are courageous
and conservative. They are dealing with
great problems. They are pioneers who
are seeking to find way out of forest
of difficulties. If they discover the open
ing they seek many will follow after them,
and the path they have beaten will become
great highway.
