FRIGHTENED MR.. STEWART.

Senator Stewart, OF Nevada, represe ITS
a State that has population OF 1900
souls and yet he makes as much fuss
in the Senate as though he had a
real constituency behind him. The
best thing that can happen to the coun-
try will be the passage Of Colonel Oates
bill TO tack Nevada on TO Utah and make
a State OF the two-just as General
EARLY once said of General Is cav
airy command. eff they did not behave
themselves he would have them put into
the army" II nothing else happens we
may get rid Of Stewart, and that would
be great gain at any price.
His TRADE on Monday bgainst the
President is as foolish as his average
speeches on silver. We have seen no
single act on Mr.. Clevelands part that
Justifies the charge that he seeks TO
unduly influence the action of Congress-
He has performed the duty inclined upon
him by the Constitution Of calling Con-
gress In extra session and pointing out
to 1t a public measure which his idea
OF the public interests make him think
necessary, and he has done no more
A suffering and grateful people thank
him for his course in this respect. which
has increased their respect for, and CON
hdence in, him beyond even what they
were before.
The particular act of Mr.. Cleveland
which has stirred Up all OF Senator
Stewards bile is the following passage
from the speech the President delivered
at the recent ceremonies attending the
one hundredth anniversary of the law
ing OF the cornerstone OF the Capitol.
MIR. Cleveland said

ROANOKE AGAIN.

The very interesting review OF the con-
dition Of things at Roanoke. which we
published In our local columns yesterday,
was from a citizen Of Roanoke. His opin-
ions must not be COMPOUNDED with those Of
The Times. But he stated some facts of
the most powerful import. lie tells us
that there have been three attempts at
lynching at Roanoke.
That in the first case, Of Lavender,
lynched In Jaunafy, 1892 1t has since been
ascertained that tho victim never intended
TO harm the girl. In the next case, that
OF Fallen, the officers OF the law sue
ceeded in saving the intended victim and
ne was afterwards proved to be entirely
innocent. 1t now turns out that Mayor
Trout did not give the order to the mill
tary TO fire and yet 1t is conceded that
II the mob could have got hold Of him II
would have lynched him because he was
believed 10 have given the fatal order.
This Is the lesson of mob law. II is as
liable to punish the innocent as the
guilty
Our civilization itself seems to stand on
trial now. 1t cannot survive If public
opinion justif1es mob law, whether in
lynching negroes accused OF crime. or in
driving its mayor out of a city Of twenty
five thousand inhabitants

Fixing Up the Theatre.

Colonel John Murphy having assumed
the management Of the Richmond Theatre
has actively begun repairing and fit
ting that place Of amusement and in a
short time will make 1t a very comforta-
BILE place. Painters and carpenters were
at work yesterday and orders have al
ready been sent North FOR many furnish
ings needed. Both the inside and outside
of the place is to be painted, and especial
attention is TO be paid TO the second gal
lery. Colonel Murphy hopes, I'm time,
70 replace the benches now in that gal
lery with chairs similar to those In the
dress circle. and he will thus make that
gallery attractive TO many family parties
who at present do not care 10 go up on
account Of the uncomfortable seats. The
Colonel is also negotiating with a we'll
known firm OF scenic artists for an en-
tire new complement OF scenery. At pres
ent, the only scenery on the stage is that
formerly used by the Broad-Street Opera
House. This will be used until new seen
cry can be painted.
New carpets and attractively arranged
boxes will be among the future comforts
OF the house, and electric lighting Will be
used as far as possible.
Colonel Murphy IS in daily communi-
cation with Messrs. Klaw and Erlanger,
his New York representatives. and he
hopes to have a very prosperous season,
