The Railroad Bill.

The Norfolk Landmark says that the
KENT bill should be amended by striking
out the enacting clause-that is to say
should be decapitated.
II says also that North Carolina. South
Carolina. West Virginia, Tennessee, Mary
land, all are managing TO scratch along
without commission"
We think that our contemporary is mis-
taken. Two or more of the States named
have commissions, and the people of Vir-
ginia Enthusiastically demand one. They
do not, however, desire any such radical
provision in it as is contained in the KENT
bill where it is proposed that the CON-
mission shall originate rates.
Our folks are calm. conservative. and
reasonable, and if the legislation which
they earnestly ask is given to them now
they will be well content to let the CON-
mission simply revise and correct ratei
and schedules. This will afford shippers
the protection that they need. especially
as the commission will undertake on theil
behalf all the trouble and expense of pro-
scouting violators of the law.
Let us frame sound and sensible rail
road bill now that we are all in O good hu.
NOR and while we are satisfied with affairs
in Virginia and have every reason to hope
that the next great presidential election
will be won by our party.

The New York Senate

The New York Senate was quietly organ
lied yesterday, and the Democrats elected
all Of their nominees.
The Republicans, having ascertained
that the independent senator. EDWARDS.
was going to be present and vote with the
Democrats, saw that it would be useless to
absent themselves and hence were found
in their seats.
The Democrats made gain Of one men,
Der by seating Mr.. WALKER, and two OF
three contested-election cases now soon to
be heard and determined may further In
crease their numbers.
The people gave them the victory and
that they will hold on to it there is no
shadow of doubt.
Almost all of the northern papers con-
cede that it is now quite impossible that
any one will DO able to contend success
fully with HILL for the delegation from
the State of New York to the national
convention.

Annexation and Streets.


The City Council committee charged
with the duty Of considering the annex
alton Of that suburb Of Richmond known
as Lee district, In the county OF Henrico,
yesterday evening agreed that it Was In
Advisable TO recommend action in that
direction until We have q well-settled poll
cy for the extension and improvement OK
our streets. They. however. agreed TO
communicate Major DooLEr's bill to the
Council ss being in the line desirable for
us TO pursue.
II is apparent that, az we have no gen.
| eral street fund worthy OF the name, q
special one must be raised or we can
never make the improvements that the
city so much needs. II is simply ques-
ton between coming TO halt almost OK
proceeding TO tax abutting property for
contiguous improvements. II the city Is
able TO bear any share of such tax-that
is to say, assume any portion OF the ex-
pense, so much the better. Certainly she
will be willing to do this at interesting
streets as she now does In the case OF
paving sidewalks. Perhaps 1t may also
appear later on that she can do even more
IN cases where property-owners have paid
into the treasury great deal and have
gotten ont very little for their neighbor-
hoods.
II our taxpayers who demand street i'm
provements had the option Of drawing
| upon general street fund or OF SUBJECT
ing themselves to such special tax as ia
proposed, they, of course. would prefer
the former. But there is no such choice.
For the great majority it is a special tax or
nothing in the way of improvements.

well. Roads cannot be built without

Maryland House.

The proposition made by MAJOR Pangborn
to construct the Maryland house at the Co
lumbar Exposition in the shape OF a mann
moth oyster, aud surrounding it with other
specimens Of Maryland epicurean products,
is well worth consideration. Snch structure
would be unique and attract attention among
the buildings erected by the other States. he
PROPOSES to cover its exterior with oyster
shells and surround it with pools and plats in
which the duck, terrapin, &C.. may be repre-
scented. baltimore Sunday NeUcs.
Can any one conceive of anything more
ludicrous than this? Major Pangborn
must have been taxing his ingenuity to
turn the whole thing into ridicule. He
certainly could not have expected such a
proposition to be received by the public
in seriousness and sober earnestness. Such
a building would be unique says the Ne'eS.
Yes, we should think it would, and that
journal might have added, not only unique,
but the laughing stock of every sensible
visitor at the fair The idea was pdRg-GorR,
and doubtless persisted in the throes OF
parturitiou. So brilliant conception could
not be expected to survive in this practical
age. A building in the shape Of an oyster
and covered with oyster shells !! This
beats Commodore Porters anchor-shaped
building at Annapolis. And to be sur
rounded with ducks and terrapins !! Poor
Maryland! What has she done to be sub
ieeted to ridicule such as this would bring

Gov. Browns Inaugural.

Gov. Brown, in his inaugural address,
eiven in full in another column, said he
would be guided in his official acts by an
earnest desire to preserve the honor and
dignity of Maryland and to promote the
happiness and welfare of her people; that
he would most cordially cooperate with
the other departments of the government
in assuring fair pure and peaceful cleo
tions, in enforcing economy in all branches
of the public service, in reducing taxation
to the lowest possible point, consistent with
the general progress and development of
the state.
He said the tax laws need revision, that
the Australian election law ought to be
extended to the whole state, that a primary
election law was a necessity, and that Mary
land should make creditable exhibit at
the Columbian Worlds Fair at Chicago.
The address was admirable throughout
and will meet with hearty response from
all the people. 1t is straightforward,
plain and forcible.

Contested Seats in Congress.

There are TWO contested election cases in
the United States Senate and six in the
House of Representatives. The Senate
eases are Dubois and Claggett, of Idaho,
and Call-Davidson of Florida. The Sen
ate will inquire into the appointment Of
Senator Chiffon, of Texas, by Governor
Hogg, it being said that Chiffon was APP
pointed the day before Senator Reagan's
resignation was accepted. The House cases
are-Craig VS.. Stewart, from Pennsylvania,
Noyes VS.. Rockwell, from New York; Rey-
nolds VS. Shenk, from Pennsylvania; Nc
Dufie VS.. Turpin, from Alabama; Greevy
VS.. Scull, from Pennsylvania, and Miller VS..
Elliott, from South Carolina
In the last Congress there were seven
teen contested election cases. The Repub-
lican majority was only four or five, too
narrow for Reed and his treasury raiders,
force bill advocates and tariff lords Con-
tests were encouraged, and the Reed ma
jority made haste to GUST sitting Democrats
and seat unelected Republicans in order to
have a reliable majority to carry out their
plans. There will be no such haste in the
present House, and the cases will be de-
cided upon their merit, not in accordance
with party necessities.

\ subscriber at York Road, in renewing
his subscription to the ADVOCATE, wites:
In renewing my subscription l would say
the ADVOCATE should be in the hands Of not
only the majority of the people of Carroll
county, but in the hands ofthe masses through
out the State. The Baltimore Sun and Fred
eriek papers are always putting themselves
up, but the ADVOCATE is the paper for the
people. 1t battles for the masses; for the
good Of the whole State. The stand it has
taken in regard to the World Fair is noble
one, and should have the commentator of
our people, and also the position you have
taken in regard to the kind of emigrants suit
able for our State. The touch W you gave our
late Executive in not doing his duty, and
made the Archer steal possible, was well de-
served. 1t does man good to read such ed
itorials as appear in the ADVOCATE. They go
to show that we still have fearless men who
are willing to publish what their convictions

The Legislature.

The Maryland Legislature is now fully
organized, and next week will 90 to work
with will. Gov. Brown, in his inaugu
raj. gave them some good advice about dis
posing of promptly the election of United
States Senators and getting down to work,
reminding them that there were many I'M
portant matters for their consideration du-
ring the ninety days of the session.
A large number of bills were introduced
in both houses this week, and leave to in
troduce many more was granted.
1t is safe to predict that the Australian
election law will be extended to the whole
state, that new assessment law will be
passed, and most likely primary election
law. The legislation necessary to make
effective the recent amendments to the con-
stitution will be passed also, but further
work, of general character, has not yet
been outlined.
4 bill will be introduced to appropriate
s1O0, 900 to the Chicago fair and another
to release the bondsmen of Stevenson Ar
cher. Both measures will meet with de-
termined opposition, and their fate cannot
now be predicted. If the judgment is en-
forced against the Archer bondsmen, four
of the five will be seriously crippled, and
it would look little strange to see state
its citizens on the one hand
and on the other spending 100000 for an
enterprise in far off Western city, and for
which there is no constitutional warrant
and no necessity.
