would be The result Of the passage Of an

granted to gold. Tho whole silver pro.
blem Is involved in the ono question
We have Just mentioned. The attempt
to make silver as good as gold by providing
that its coinage shall be as free as the
coinage OF gold would be an experiment.
II successful II would result in innumera-
bio benefits to the whole commercial
world. IL would produce universal eur
rency. II would, in word. clear mp many
financial difficulties, and shed 30 bright
light upon what are now intricate pro-
blems that they would be intricate no
longer.
The present Is not the most opportune
time for trying this experiment. It ought
to be tried whilst Congress Ia In session in
order that the law providing for 1t might
be repealed forthwith IL the experiment
should threaten to prove disastrous. Con-
gress during the war passed law intend

rise. and rose so rapidly that Congress
FASTENED to repeal the law.

The Financial Situation.

In their last circular Messrs. HAxBLEroS
a Co., of Baltimore. state the financial
situation. as they understand it, in the fol-
lowing language. We quote;
"Continued gold shipments and an advance In
the Bank OF England's rate constituted the
adverse, and the harmonious meeting Of tho
Western Traffic Association and most promising
crop prospects the encouraging features OF the
situation. over s7,00o,o0o gold goes out this
week, n dscouraging II not an alarming fact. II
Is problematical what is 10 be the result OF this
heavy drain Of gold, and idle 20 attempt 70 pre-
dict its effect In the absence Of improved condi-
tons which must govern the future. European
nations appear TO DO set upon tho accumulation
OF all the gold in reach and vic with each other
for its possession. Later on II European crop re-
ports be.true and our expectations realized, they
win have to give up. their hoard, and In payment
OF our breadstuffs return the gold which they
are now drawing from this side. This Is our hope,
and we may say expectation, which, II not full
filed, win bring this country TO silver currency
basis and place q premium on gold. II this latter
should happen, it would be the fault OF our nn-
wise silver legislation, and would result In one OF
two things: Either other leading nations would
adopt a double standard, or else we will be at
great disadvantage with deprecated currency
This last suggestion is noteworthy as
coming from the source it does. We do
not recollect that such strenuous advocates
of monometallism ever before conceded
that it was within the power of this coun-
try TO compel other leading nations to
adopt double standard. We arc not sure
that our Government has this power. If it
has, it ought to exercise it. It would solve
the silver problem.

Make Haste Slowly.

We are decidedly of the opinion that in
the following paragraph the Berkeley News
has made u record for the DIsPArcH which
we have not made for ourselves. We have
never undertaken to voice the senti-
ment" Of the people of Virginia on the
presidential question. We quote from the
Nscs:
"If The RICHMOND DISPATCH voices the sonti-
ment OF portion Of the Democrats Of Virginia
when II says that Cleveland is the party fayorite
On the State /, win find itself mistaken when the

We suppose 10 is advisable for us to say
that Virginia viii vote for the nominee Of
tbs Democratic National Convention. At
present We need not DO more specific
especially as we are not good prophets.

ACAT WITH THE GRIP.
llcemen Finally Capture Her.
New York telegram

k-NIh ApAA ANANbAoHsJ
There was some excitement at my home
in Brooklyn the other day. Apolice patrol,
with six policemen, O crowd of several
hundred people, and a cat furnished the
fun. The cat was suffering from an incipi-
emit attack of the grip. and was tearing
about in our back yard at great rate.
Why it should have chosen our yard can
not say, as the cat was not on visiting
terms, and had never been introduced.
Having given a circus matinee on the
flower bed, she made a sudden dash
through the kitchen window into the china
closet, where the cook locked her IN. And
then the fun began. The cat was evident
ly afraid of the dark. for she howled and
screeched and moaned and walled until
the kitchen poker was twisted double by
anguish. My little brother of FIVE, the
only male parsonage in the house. went
for policeman.
Hes mad IN our kitchen and yelling
awfully," he told him.
Visions of escaped maniacs and horrible
murders arose before his vision. He rushed
TO the nearest telephone and called for
help. In a few minutes a police patrol
wagon with six stalwart policemen aboard
dashed up, followed by the usual quota of
curious butcher-boys, loafers, and pedes-
TRANS.
Every window in the street contained
staring faces and excitement was at fever
heat. All sorts of rumors were flying
about and it was with difficulty that the
crowd was prevented from entering the
house. Bravely the six guardians of the
peace marched into the kitchen, brayely
they opened the closet door, when-spiti
went the cat and the police beat digni-
fed retreat.
A consultation of war was held and
marched ct the head of his squad, carrying
his victim triumphantly aloft.
1--WE got him." he shouted. And the
look of disappointment.and disgust on the
faces of that crowd was comical to behold,

The Pulaski Convention.

The convention to be held at Pulaski in
June is designed to stimulate interest in
an exhibit of the States resources at the
Columbian Exposition.
Our Chamber of Commerce last night
accepted the invitation to send delegates,
and President PURCELL was authorized to
appoint them as soon as he is advised as to
the number TO which the Chamber is en-
titled. The movement is therefore making
encouraging progress. For our part we
are glad that 1t originated in the farming
regions of the Southwest, and it is quite
natural and proper that city of that sec
ton should have been chosen as the place
of meeting.
virginia's products should be exhibited
to the best possible advantage at Chicago,
and this can only be done by legislative
action supplemented by such an organiza-
ton as is promised as the outgrowth of
the Pulaski convention.
Richmond heartily hopes that the con-
vention will be a success.
Pulaski will warmly welcome all the
delegates.

No Appeal-The Latest Report.

We argued the other day from the facts
of the case that the reported appel OF
Italy TO the great Powers Of Europe for
their judgment or verdict in the case OF
this New Orleans rioters would prove to be
more embarrassing TO Italy, if il had been
really made. or should be really made.
than TO the United States. We took the
ground that England could not be induced
20 NEEDLE in an international misunder-
standing between Italy and this country
because there were so many millions OF
Queen vrcroRrAs subjects who were sin
cereiy attached TO the institutions OF
America; and that France could not join
with Italy in any such movement, because
ours is the only republic in existence
strong enough in fact and in the estirna-
ton OF the world TO stand by the side of
France in any troubles which she may have
Mt home or in her possessions with the
powerful monarchical governments which
would like 10 control the destinies OF Eu-
rope without the assistance Of any free
government or government by the people
for the people. Wednesday the cable told
the American world that the Rome CORE
spondent of the London Standard claimed
TO have authority for denying the state
ment that Italy had at present any inten-
ton to appeal TO the Powers for judgment
In the New Orleans affair.
In studying European problems every
body ought to recollect that all the nations
of Europe naturally look around them at
home before they involve themselves in
Nl,ow
even with any country not in Europe.
Whether ID be the United States, the most
powerful nation in the world, or the most
insignificant of the South American coun-
tries that has trouble with European Gov
eminent the first question to be decided by
the last-named is how will the great
Powers Of Europe stand affected towards
the neighbor of theirs thus Matching trou-
BILE abroad. Italy is not different from the
other European countries in this respect.
She is in no condition to 60 to war with
The United States, as we have shown here
toiore. All that she could do would be to
render herself ridiculous in the eyes of the
world. But the Great Powers are not
going to permit her TO do this. 1t would
never do for a European monarchy to be
allowed TO present such spectacle TO oil
Christendom as Italy would present within
O very short time after declaring war
against the United States. This she will
surely not be permitted to do. She may
scold us. but that will be all. unless in
deed she should decideto refuse to talk"
TO us at all. Great is UNCLE SAM. He will
not disturb Italy if she behaves herself,
nor her subjects if they behave themselves.
That is the important fact. II isnot worth
while for anybody TO take trouble as to
what Italy will do. She is bound hand
and foot by her environments.

Discredjtable.

The declaration of Mr.. CoRTE, the Italian
Consul at New Orleans. that he had saved
the lives of the Mayor and other city off,
cials in New Orleans, is proof positive that
the Italians there are just such men as the
mob in March last took them to be, and
will go far towards satisfying the public
everywhere that the irregular proceedings
in that city on that occasion were unavoid-
able. The Consul himself has weak place
in his head. He does not realize how dis
creditable to his countrymen is the charge
which he brings against them when he
claims to have prevented them from as
sassinatlng guardians of the peace of New
Orleans. Such men are not wanted in this
country

INDIAN SKELETONS.
ABORIGINAL AND OTHER RELICS IN

A Remarkable Find by Railroad Con-
tractors-A Battlefield Grave
Yard Dug Into.

Ben Posr- OYrrcE. ALLEoHlSY COUNTY, Va,
May i4-Mr. J. ). Boxley, contractor on the
Covington and Warm Springs railroad, In
opening a cut on his works a few days ago
dug into an Indian burying-ground- The
skeletons Of large number OF men were
found. and among the relics of the dead were
tomahawks, arrow-heads, beads, and va
rious kinds Of pottery.
AN ANCIENT BATTLEFIELD.
Tradition has il that great battle was
fought here between Captain Morfit's men
and the Indians, in which tho whites were
defeated with = heavy loss. Several old
weapons of the white man have been I'M
earthed along this line, among them an
old flint-lock horse-p pistol, nothing being
left of il but the iron portions,ithe wood
work having long since rotted away.
FLNT-LocK RIFLES.
Also the iron parts of several old flint
lock rifles. A gold coin was picked up by
negro, bearing date of 147i. 1t is an old
Spanish coin worth about five dollars in
our money.
GOLD DISCOVERED.
A vein of gold has been found on the
land of MIR. j. Il. Mann. whose property
the road passes through, but whether it
will prove to be valuable remains vet 70
be decided. II is in blue slate, and an old
"Forty-nlner,n II. W. Hanley, says he
thinks lit will pan out in good-paying
quantity"
THE 1sT OF JULY THE DAY.
The Covington and Warm Springs rail
road was to be completed by the 15tl e.:
June, but there is some doubt about II
most of the contractors are behind ov
to the late spring. Lane Brothers are .,-e
only contractors ahead. They will wind
up their two miles by the 10th of this
month and will be the first to finish.
They have literally removed noun
tains."
RAIN NEEDED.
Rain is badly needed. The wheat and
grass crops will be a perfect failure unless
we get rain in few days.
The little cold snap killed all the fruit,
so we are not looking for a moonshine har-
vest.

Old-Fashioned Notions.

With population OF $1,000. as estimated
by the Board of Health, and police force
of 100 men, Richmond should drop some of
her old-fashioned ways.
II ought no longer TO be admissible to
neglect TO enforce an ordinance because
by so doing some one will be offended.
There are good and needful laws against
the gathering of persons at street-corners,
and they should be rigidly executed. The
community asks it, and will sustain any
officer of whom compliant is made who is
shown TO have firmly and politely done his
duty.
II is good, wholesome provision, neces-
sary for the protection of our women.
and essential for the proper use of
our streets. What city is there which
allows groups of men TO gather at it's most
prominent street-crossings there to gossip
and to gaze into women's faces?
II is in q like spirit that We appeal for
the enforcement of the law against fast
driving. Here most fragrant violations
have long been allowed, but the time has
come 10 call a halt. 1t may be, indeed it
will be, unpopular for officers to report
prominent citizens. but it is their sworn
duty, and the Police Board and the public
will sustain and applaud all who do it
without temper and in that calm and dig
pifed spirit which best becomes those who
ore the representatives of the laws ma
iesty.
The Police Commissioners and the men,
bers Of the force are chosen for long terms
and are not subjected to popular elections
and thus are independent of temporary
ebulhtions on the part of dissatisfied in
diyiduals.
In both of the instances here referred to
we hope TO see the police adopt progress
sive policy. For the usages of the past We
do not blame them. Custom is often
stronger than law. Indeed. this is the un-
fortunate fact that confronts us.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS Doctrine.

eNSAS
We have said heretofore that reciprocity
is one of the doctrines of the Democratic
party, and is suggested by every argument
against protective tariff. We have laid
this down as q proposition which needs no
argument to sustain it. Nevertheless, we
must concede that the Charlottesville
JefJrsonian seems to have been ahead of
the times few years ago. 1t says:
"As we can show from the files Of our paper, We
urged free trade and reciprocity with Mexico,
the South and Central American republics. and
tho Pacific isles over four years ago. We wrote
series of articles on the subject. We hammered
away for some time, but no one came TO our as
sistance. We believe one or two Of our ex-
changes did us the compliment TO quote some
paragraphs from our articles without comment,
but not one endorsed the views. We found we
we're but beating the wind, and not wishing TO be
classed among the cranks, we let up"

She Was Not Learned in Politics, But She
Knew What she liked Best.


There's q young man in Detroit who will
be famous statesman one of these days,
il by some unlucky fate he is not called
upon to fill premature grave. The other
night he was paying his usual semi-weekly
deVoirs at the shrine of his best girl, and
the talk turned upon politics, as talk will
do sometimes when trod upon.
TEL me. Harry" she said, what is the
difference between protection, free trade,
and reciprocity.
Certainly, darling" he responded in
free, silvery tones, drawing about half an
inch nearer to her, which was all there was
to draw. You see it is this way: il, for
instance, we should kiss each other, that
would be free trade"
"Oo," she twittered, with dainty little
twitter.
IF" he continued, 81 should kiss you
and you should kiss me in return, that
would be reciprocity"
90, oo,n she twlttered, with two dainty
little twitters.
And lastly" he went on, If you should
kiss me and l should take dozen from
you TO pay for the privilege you enjoy, that
would be protection.
100, 90, 90, Harry she twittered, In
consecutive hunts of dainty little twitters,
concluding with an explosive hug Pm
in favor of protection" and the young
man conceded with her unanimously.

There seems to be no doubt at all that
Mr.. BLAINE has been quite i'll. Whether
OF not it will compel him to abstain from
official duties for some time to come is a
matter about which there is some discus
sion. The attack is, at least. warning to
him that if he should enter into the presi-
Dental race it would be at great peril to
his health. That was the obstacle which
confronted him four years ago, since
which time it is certain he has grown no
younger, and 1t is very unlikely that he
has grown more robust.
