The Higher Law.

Our good friend Of the LynchburS
Yraiaian talks very plainly in the para
graph following:
Tho DISPATCH may be technically
correct in its Interpretation OF the nten-
ton of the trainers of tho Constitution IN
using theterm 'inhabitant III contradis-
tinction to citizen in the clause pre-
scibing the qualifications for q repre-
sentative in Congress but custom, pre-
cedent, public sentiment. common sense,
and the local prejudices aud preferences
OF the people are all against that con-
struction, and those constitute q higher
law than tho Constitution in deter
mining this question. The people want
their representatives TO be OF them in the
true sense of the word, and not merely
for them, aud the citizen OF another
Bta.e who is merely sojourning 10 Virgil
MIA, even though his residence had COW
cred the constitutional requirement,
seuld not fulfil that condition.
The people have the matter entirely
In their own hands. Ifthey wish TO be
represented in Congress by an "inhabi'
tant who has not yet become "citi'
zen OF their State they can elect such
man. II, on the other hand, they wish
10 be represented in that body 10y q
"citizen they can elect citizen. II
Is, VIC repeat. the custom in England to
elect 10 the House of Commons gentle
men residing anywhere in the kingdom.
And we know OF no good reason why
ths same liberty Of choice should not be
allowed TO the people Of the United
States.
We agree tbst "citizen " of another
State could not represent Virginia OF
Ohio in Congress. Bu. man who has
changed bis domicile from New York,
nay, to Ohio--that is, removed thither

rha Davis Mansion.

Tho City Council is making haste
slowly in the matter OF surrenderng the
JEFF. DAVIS mansion to tho ladies who
have organized tho Confederate Library
and Museum Society. II their delay is
necessary for tho public interests it is
iustihable il it arises from iukewarm-
ness in the cause, then it is to DO de-
plored.
The GRANT house was chosen as the
building in which TO locate the school
after the mansion is given up, and the
city got an option on the property at an
agreed price Of $4,000.
Now it is said that this Is an cxtrava-
CANT sum, and the Board Of Aldermen
On Monday refused to approve the bar
gain.
II the advocates OF the purchase can
establish the fact that the amount de-
signated in the option is not more than
the value of the property, they should
do so at once and then secure q recon
alteration. If they cannot do this tho
authorities ought to go upon the market
in search OF other property.
The quicker this matter ia settled the

Street improvements.

SO far as we can learn the proposition
to begin the year 1891 with creditable
plan for street and park improvements
meets with general approval.
IT is very fortunate, too, that our tax
PAYERS are the readiest to give their sane
ton to the expenditure, but they well
know that money judiciously laid ont IN
such public improvements as We have
suggested will bring excellent returns,
and they are convinced that it will moi
do for us to check enterprise Longer.
Our idea is TO have special appro'
pristion of 100000 fornext year andthis
will have to come from the sale OF city
bonds.
If the City Council hesitates as to its
duty in the premises let it submit the
question to the taxpayers.
We can stand an increased burden Of
9S. 600 per annum to accomplish what
We hope for from the proposed expendl'
ture,

ThankspivingDay.

The usual proclamations OF the Presl-
dent and Governor call upon us to OBJ
servo Thursday the 9th as a day OF
Thanksgiving to tho Almighty for the
blessings of the year.
Observance Of this day was slowly nc
repted in Virginia and the South, and
It was only within the past twenty years
that IL became general Now we think
the custom has come to stay. This GER
taiuly seems true rs to the cities, for
when the post-oliice, city, State, and
Federal Offices, the railroad depots, &c,
close, as they invariably do, business is
brought to halt and holiday has to be
taken by most people.
Thanksgiving services in the Rich
nond churches usually are moderately
well attended and the congregations are
devout, but for the mass OF the people it
s. merely holiday, and thousands OF
men and boys avail themselves Of the
opportunity to shoulder their guns and
go bird-shooting.
We think there are special reasons
Why the people OF Virginia should be
thankful. Good health and fair Gro p
have blessed our population. Fortune
has emptied her fayors upon many rural
sections Of the State and all the towns
and cities are thriving There is pros
pect for the settlement of our State deb
and the Virginia people are IN the en-
ioyment of greater general prosperity
than at any time since the close OF the
war. Here at home We are satisfactorily
governed and recent occurrences war
rant the high hope that in national nj
fairs there will be great improvement
coon.
So it occurs to Us that We have mucl
TO be grateful for. This acknowlodg
,nent we could Of course make at any
time, but the day that usage and OFF
cial recognition have appointed is mos
suitable.
Many OF those who do not hail the do
us religious opportunity are Thankful
dor IT IS a holiday. So it has a doubl
mission, and while it was long II
scented as a New England innovato
1t has now become fairly we'll dome
ticated here and there is little or no no;
tility 10 it.
SO let us make tho most OF 1t.

Visiting Newsnaper-Men.

We have turned tho tables on the
newspaper men gathered here OF the
annual session Of the Virginia Press As
ISOLATION and interviewed them upon
the question Of tho Democratic nomina-
ton for President OF the United States.
They are intelligent and obseryant per-
sons who have the best opportunities for
learning the sentiments OF the people
and tho general drift proves to be in
favor of Mr.. CLEVELAND. The iudg-
ment expressed by them Is that the
recent elections recorded the emphatic
verdict of the masses in favor OF the man
who made tariff reform a national issue
The association had two interesting
md instructive sessions yesterday, and
The neral report was that the news
paper business is enjoying goodly share
Of tho boom that is widespread over the
State.
Prosperous communities make pros
porous papers. and no aspiring town VIII
consent to be without daily or weekly.
Our advice has always been "support
your county or town paper"
When a people cannot support their
local sheets il viii be in vain for them to
preach their advantages to the outer
world. There is no other advertising
medium comparable tot.
At the meetings to-day a number OF
valuable speeches will be made and
papers read, and the proceedings will. be
Of much interest. This evening the
visitors and city press will gather at the
banquot-table and tho bill of fare will DO
among the great matters that will be
discussed.

stenooranhv and Typewriting

The proposition to have o course OF
stenography and typewriting in our
public schools should be adopted. 1t IS
a practical idea, and is in the line OF tit
ting the boys and girls for business life.
II the design of the public schools Is
to give to the pupils that instruction
which will best qualify them to become
self-supporting citizens, then, after they
have been taught to read and write cor
rectly, no moro valuable addition to
their education could be made than to
make good typewriters and stenographers
of them.
The plan should be tried at the High
School. Give the option to the boys and
girls and one half of their lumber Will
at once enroll themselves in such classes.
We think there are some studies that
they might advantageously drop IN favor
OF these two branches; but ii not why
let these be added TO the curriculum.

THE FIRST President HARRISON. The

President Harrison speak, and he tes-
tifies that General William Henry Har-

speakers he ever heard. Yet the old

was said then that he was in the hands OF
committee who did not dare to allow him
to communicate with the public at all after
he was nominated for the presidency. 1t
was TO meet this charge that he was put
upon the stump, and addressed q hun
dred thousand people on one OF his old
battle-flelds, which was perhaps where
Mr.. Thurman heard him. 1t will DO re-
membered that Daniel Webster did not
have high opinion of General Harri-
sons capacity in composition. The anec-

he had been slaughtering Greeks and
