TO IMPROVE ROADS ON THE VIRGINIA SIDE.
Messrs. r. A. Phillips Il Son have requested
Senator Barbour to introduce bill appro-
priating $4,000 to be expended under the
direction of the Secretary of War in macadam-
izing with hard stone and otherwise improv-
ing the road running from the south end of
the chain bridge to the south end of the Aque-
duct bridge and thence through the Arlington
estate to the south end of the long bridge. In
their letter nelosing d draft Of the proposed
bill and a copy Of the resolution of the Virginia
legislature authorizing agents of the United
States to go upon these roads and improve
them, they say: Here is the great city of
Washington fronting on a beautiful river with
three public bridges built by the United States
authority crossing to the county of Alexandria
in which there is great national cemetery
and military post, and yet not public high
way in the county fit to travel upon save
single road leading from the south end of the
Aqueduct bridge to the cemetery by way Of
Fort Myer. Fictitious opponents of this bill
may urge that the public highways of the
county do not concern the United States. But
this objection must fall when it is considered
that the county was originally part of the
District of Columbia; that the United States
owns in fee simple One-seventeenth of the
county; that the United States has expended
one-half a million of dollars on two Of the
three bridges across the Potomac in the Dis
trict, to which bridges there are no decent ap-
proaches with the single exception of the road
from the Aqueduct bridge to Fort Myer here
tofore mentioned; that the roads proposed to
be improved by this bill are almost wholly the
direct main thoroughfare to the CITY,"

FATHERED BY DEMOCRATS
A New License Bill Presented in
7Gt Iowa,

7et Iowa.
Dies MONIES, To-, March 27.--When
the especial order of the day, the Dent
license bill, was reached in the house
to-day the Democratic caucus license
bill was offered as substitute. 1t pro-
vldeS that, upon petition by two-fifths
of the legal voters of any city or town,
or of the territory outside of any city or
town, in any town within the state, it
shall be the duty of the city or town

| a special election, at which the question
of license or no license for the sale of
| liquor shall be voted on. Such elections
areSnot to be held oftener than once in

Respectable Character

ditions: Notice of the application and

lished two weeks conSecutively in the
newspapers of the county. AT the date
fixed for the hearing any person may
file remonStrance against the issue of

based on any of the following grounds:
A violation of the provisions of this act
within one year preceding; bad moral
character OF the applicant, or that such
applicant is not resident of the state.
In default of proof of these disqualified
tons, the license is to be granted. The
license fee is fixed at not less than $500
per annum, and such additional sum as

WIEN LADIES FALL OUT.

1t was accepted that the martial atti-
tude assumed toward each other by
Mrs. MARIETTA BONES, of South Da-
kota, and Miss SUSAN B. ANTHONY, of
the republic and all ages, was due to the
misrepresentation of heated zeal in a
common cause. to be followed by a
saccharine osculatory seal of peace and
reconciliation. This hope is being sadly
disSipated. The gentle danes are likely
to mar the serenity ST their intellectual
fronts with the crows feet of disquiet
and hostile emotions. perhaps even en-
dangering the usefulness of both as
champions of the cause that is now
kindling It's fires in the hearts Of the
good people of South Dakota. Both
ladies have held high estate in the pant
ing struggle for manly prerogatiyes, and
it were task too delicate for assump-
ton to discriminate between them.
Each is eager to dare, do, and reap in
the conflict now inauguated In South
Dakota, and it is hoped the discrepancy
will not keep SUSAN out of the field. 1t
is announced the past few days that
eloquent ladies from foreign parts
are at once to inaugurate the cam
paign, evidently under the inspiration
of SUSAN, while the BONES are to be
discouraged away from the infantile in
dustry, as the tariff eXpoSitors put it.
When variegated male politicians fall
out they have proverbial weakness
for mutual variations. These good la
dies are qualifying for the full political
role. SUSAN has spoken with eXasper-
ating sarcasm of the innate difiidence
of the Dakota oracle. Mrs. BONES re-
tortS that SUSAN is avaricious and has
collected money for woman suffrage in
Dakota that should 60 for more mate
rial benefits. She gets into the fibers of
things when she accuses SUSAN of dis
posing of $4,000 in the suffrage cause
without ever accounting for dollar of
the amount. The advice of the BONES
is not to trust contributions to SUSAN
for the South Dakota campaign, but
give them to the destitute and unfortu-
nate. There are intimations that the
'half has not been Id" and other pro-
fesslonal refo rmers of the Dakota land
are in the smoky range. A great cause
should not suffer from the weakness of
its champions, but if a school for the
training of female politicians is opened
it may be useful to note the proficiency
being made.
