The senntorship Investigation


What the two houses OF the General
Assembly have done as to the senator
ship matter accorIs with our view OF
the demands Of the occasion.
After nu that has been spoken and
written on this subject, IN public and in
private. the people OF Virginia would
not have been satisfied had no investi-
CATION been ordered. Now it seems best
for au interests that it should be made.
n Mr. Martin has an unclouded title to
thc scuatorshlp that fact should be made
iudisrutahle: II not. the blame should
D., put where it belongs.
We much mistake the men who CON
stuutc the investigating committee If 1t
is not found that they DO their work
thoroughly and conscicntiously.
Tho Fredericksburg Free Lance has
raised tho point that inasmuch as the
Democratic caucus is In no sense an
official body. I'm the eyes Of the law. the
General Assembly has no power 60 in
o.ir. into It's acts. This may or may
u.t Dee true. but neither side can afford
r1 avail itself of any such tcchnicality;
besides. the prime question is- What in
nu.rc,s were used by corporations or
persons to elect 70 the legislature men
ri,ds,I 60 support their fayori'oa for the
senate
There Is nothing 10 DO now but TO 30
forward with the investigation boldly anu
nAcxby and give every man who has
any information ON the subject opportu-
nifty 10 ton what he knows. also to COM
mul the presence Of any citizens OF
VIRGINIA who. however unwilling to talk.
az. believed to have knowledge ofD>nat-
t,rs essential 10 a true solution OF the
controversy.
The friends Of Mr. Martin and those Of
General lie were equally ready ycster-
day to vote for the appointment Of the
iuv,sueatuc committee, and We suppose
81 DEVELOPMENTS justify it the election of
Senator viii Doe deferred until this COM
1uitt.c is ready 10 report However, the
Democratic caucus viii no doubt pass
,n this question. apd IL has plenty Of
time t. do 50 before noon of Tuesday
next. when the law requires that the
frst ballot shall be taken by the Leeisla-
tur,. Circumstances must decide whether
The caucus VIII have a ballot which
viii elect or ballot which VIII be nuga-
tory.
We heartily lament this trouble In our
party, hut hope that 1t may pass or
without III effects. Our experience
teaches us that when such questions as
these are raised in the way that these
have been raised the shortest and best
way e. solve them is to have the freest
possible investigation. And such an in
vcstieation We believe that.w are now
about 10 have.

the Rev. DR.. IafIerty with having treated
this subject with much ability. In his
paper. the Richmond Christian Advocate.
he this week returns 10 the subject, and
enforces what he has heretofore said on
H. We shall quote portion OF his arti-
Gle. asking for Il the consideration OF
the men who make deposits az well as
the men who receive deposits. or the
men who are experts in finance az well
as those who are experts in Withdrawing
their money from bank just as soon as a
panic is threatened. The Advocate says:
"Comptroller-of-the-Cu Currency Eckles in
his annual report states that the recent
financial stringcncy arose from loss
OF confidence on the part OF the people
IN the solvency OF the distnctively none
tary institution In plain words, people
ran 10 get their money out OF the banks
for fear Il was not safe there.
1.-THE remedy Is plain. We stated II
during the panic.
'The government now guarantees the
notes OF the national banks. No one
ever cares whether the note in his purse
is the issue OF a broken bank or not.
Why shall the government not make
good the depOsitors as well as the note
holders? We consulted bank officials.
They were willing 10 pay the government
a handsome sum to guarantee their de-
positors We showed IN our editorial
that II there were such n guarantee the
deposits would double. and the profits
made on this additional sum enable the
banks To pay high bonus for the back
ing Of the national Treasury, yet only
mere mite Of a tax is needful 20 secure
the government from loss. This tax
would recoup the government for any
money IL might have TO pay out 20 de-
positors OF badly-managed bank. The
banks favor the method. Businessmen
desire It, DepOsitOrs would welcome It,
The scheme win make a panic imposs-
bic Consider what millions on millions
would have been saved. what wrecking
OF commerce and manufactures prevent
ed by this simple arrangement

The Spring-Street Extension.

| The bill introduced in the Senate by Nr.
! Lovenstein to allow the city TO extend
| Spring street eastward through the peni-
| Tertiary grounds to connect with Arch at
| First should meet with the approval Of
the two houses Of the General Assembly
Years ago a similar move was made,
but IT failed because the city and state
| authorities could not agree upon street
lines: now compromise can b. reached,
which Will remove every objection on that
score
The topography of Richmond has been
good deal changed by cuts ana fills
since On the early part of the century,
the pcnitentiary was built and our pOpu-
lation has grown vastly since that time.
The pententiary site was chosen for its
cminence and isolation. it stands above
all surrounding ground to this day, but It
Is now thickly environe1 by residences.
The approaches TO 1t have never been
good Approach 1t as you may, you have
TO take "a back way" This new street
would give Il roadway TO II from the
front. Spring street would BE- carried
through the grounds for the most part
along or near to the ravlne south Of the
institution.
with this street opened the eXstin;
roadway which winds through the
grounds, and is now us by the public
on suferance, would be closed, and no
citizen would be permitted to enter the
pcnitentiary-gr except upon bust
ness. 1t is important TO the discipline Of
the prison that there should be less travel
than now through its grounds.
Properly located the new street would
be mutually advantageous TO the city
and State. The plan is for the state 10
give the right Of way. and for the city
to construct and maintain the street.
