LEGISLATIVE NOMINATIoNs.

1t is highly appropriate and becoming that
in spite Of the fact that several months are
yet TO elapse before the legislative nomina-
tons for this city will be made, so much pub
lie interest should already be felt in them,
and such strong desire should be entertain
Cd that they shall be distinguished for an
unusual degree Of excellence, not only in the
way Of character, but also Of experience and
ability. AS the wealthiest and most populous
city in the Commonwealth. with industries
AZ diversified az they are complicated, Rich
mond should elect men to the responsible
positions to be filed who will be fully capa-
bic on every occasion that may arise, of pro.
tecting her interests when they are assailed
and Of advancing her prosperity by inaugu-
rating or supporting every measure that is
calculated 10 promote her welfare.

According to announcement made yester-
dav The TINES this morning presents its
readers with a model sixteen-page newspaper.
which. besides the usual attractive features
which always characterize our enlarged Sun
day issue. is largely devoted to descriptions
of our chief jobbing houses and to the pub
LEGATION of various facts and figures which show
conclusiyelg the giant strides which Rich
mond has made within the past quarter OF
century towards commercial supremacy.
These descriptions and facts will prove I'M
usually interesting reading 10 our merchants
and business men principally but the interest
will by no means be confined to them. There
is not a citizen Of Richmond, or a single well
wlsher Of the city. who will not read our
paper this morning with feeling Of justifable
pride at the splendid exhibit which is made.
It IS always well, however, to look forward
and not back, and in considering what Rich
mond has done. TO reflect on what she may
yet do. Chief among the greatest needs
of the city for further development and
the attainment Of the acme Of COM
mercial supremacy which appears to
be her manifest destiny, is additional
railway facilities. These she is likely TO have
in the near future. At present her main rail
way connections are towards the South, bat
with the new arrangement between the Ches-
apeake aud Ohio and the Richmond and
Danviile railroads for the use of the Viz
pinia Midland a trade can be opened
with all the region between Gordonsville
and Alexandria and out over the Manassas
Gap railroad to the Valley. A close connec-
ton with the Baltimore and Ohio will also
open up to Richmond the far-famed Valley Of
Virginia, which, although geographically be-
longing TO the State, has heretofore been as
much given up to Baltimore as if it were
Howard county, Maryland
Nothing would do more TO attract this de-
sirable trade 10 Richmond than dihgent and
intelligent advertising, which is another mat
tor which our merchants and citizens gener-
ally have TOO much neglected, and the prompt
and early distribution of frst-class news
paper Is, it is universally conceded, the most
efficient method Of bringing TO and keeping
before the public the morris Of the locality
where IL is published.
These suggestions are thrown out in connec-
ton with the first Of our ser trade edi-
tons this morning, in the hope that they may
commend themselves to the good sense of cur
business community, In this connection it
may be said that TIE TINES has great cause
of encouragement in the many, and in some
unexpected proofs that its efforts in
behalf Of the city and the State are being
daily more and more highly appreciated.

The Philadelphia Record states that the
stoppsce of business at the Spring Uaroe1
Bank was due to the indebtedness incurred
n tidiuc over the money pinch Of last fall
and the withdrawal of deposits by cautious
depositors who had doubts OF the banks
stability. It is refreshing to read that
there Is no criminality connected with the
failure. and that depositors. although de-
Iaved. viii eventually get all their money.

The anti-lottery men of Louisianaare organ
izing TO defeat the proposed constitutional
amendment legalizing the lottery company.
So much in earnest are they that their organ,
the Delta, is compelled to utter the following
imprisoned appeal:
Men of Louisiana. Awake. Through
every village and hamlet and town in the
State, IN the moss-hung valleys of her great
rivers, by the still waters of her placid bayous,
through the rustling woods of her pine-clad
hills, let the fiery cross be borne, until from
the hills of the Arkansas line to the marsh.
bordered gulf on the south the cry shall go
forth IN the voice of the people, aroused aud
determined: To your tents, O Isarel.'"
The men of Louisiana must be stocks and
stones indeed if they can resist such fervid
eloquence 40 that.

The practical result of free coinage
with regard to government debts would
be this: Bondholders would be paid in
gold, il there was any TO pay them with,
but pensioners would be paid in 77-cent
dollars. At all events, the certainty is
that the old soldiers would get their
dues in deprecated money, whereas
now they are paid honest money as
good as gold. There can be no avoid
ance of this result. The pensioner can
not raise his pension as the merchant
can increase the price of his goods. He
must take just what the law gives him,
and $40 pension will be worth $7.70
every time. This is the feast TO which
the silverites invite the old soldiers.

1t is worth noting that while the price
of print cloths has come down under
protection from 20 cents yard in 1880,
and cents in $4,000, to about B cents
yard at present, the rate of wages is
double that of 1880 and about 2S per
cent more than in the decade before
the war. This shows that protection
does not mean higher prices for the
consumer, although it does mean higher
wages for the workingman.
