stitntion Of the state or else That persons

voters IN the city or county where they arc
called upon 10 serve In that capacity. In

under consideration must DO construed as

That II 70 cav. tho words "entihca 70

These words " entitled to vote" must,
we assume. have the same meaning ID Sec
ton 2 Of Article III. OF the State Consti-
tutiou which they have in Section OF that
article. If 30. the former section must De
construed as IL 1t read, An persons en-
titled 70 vote in Virginia shall be eligible

No restriction upon the will of the people

the persou elected 10 any such Office must
be voter. But o voter whereI we nave
alrefey learned that in order to be ELL
eible TO Sit as juror q person need only
be qualified to vote somewhere In the
State. Does 1t not follow logically that all
persons entitled 10 vote anywhere IN Vir-
pinia are eligible to Office anywhere in VIZ
ginia? If so. city ordinance providing
that 10 person shall be an employee OF
that city who is not voter therein may be
q valid ordinance, but an ordinance pro-
viding that no person shall hold Office IN

Norfolk Landmark.
Our opinion is that like certain Ken
lucky product WATTERsoS improves with
age, ard that he is both old and young
enough to go to the Senate; but he has no
time TO fool away there. He Is too
busy writing for the Courier-Journdl to take
contract to redeem the unutterable
wearisomeness of the Congressional Record
by his wit and wisdom. He was in the
United States House for short time, and
could have stayed there indefinitely had
he been willing TO sacrifice his best years
TO the dreary monotony of legislative life
Mr.. DANA, of the New York Sten, is an
other editor who is resolved not to be i'm
posed upon by allowing himself TO be sent
to the Senate. Recently, while In Europe,
the New York Herald took occasion to urge
his CLAIMS for the senatorship, and with
such characteristic ability that the thing
really got 20 be serious. IL caused Mr..
DANA TO cut short his trip and hasten home
the better to put q stop to what looked
like the device of q contemporary to rid
itself of a formidable rival.
Year by year the dignity and Importance
OF the press increases. There are editors
who could not be induced to surrender
their present positions for the presidency
itself We doubt If JAMES GoRDoE BENNErT
would rake the presidency fit were offered
HIM. but we should be distrustful of either
WArTERsoN or DANA, because they have been
tempted so often that we fear their pow
ers Of resistance may have been somewhat
weak eued.

R.lohmond,s MilitarY-Men.

The D1sPaTcH ~ not unmindful OF the
fact that as long as the City-Hail work Is
going on-and il must go on TIL IL IS
finlshed--the City Council needs 20 exer-
else the greatest possible economy IN pup
lie expenditures but we nevertheless
trust that II may find q way to give more
liberal appropriations to our military OIL
all arms and commands.
The statement made by the Executive
Committee Of the First Regiment and pre-
scented to the Board OF Aldermen Monday
night shows that there has been q large
increase in the membership OF that com
mand. and that its expenses have increased
IN proportion, while the city's annual con-
tribution (sl, 500 romans as formerly.
This ought not TO be so. The larger the
regiment grows the more efficient II be-
comes as an auxiliary police force. and
therefore the more claim it has upon Rich
mond's treasury.
With all sensible persons tho idea that the
volunteer soldiers are ornamental rather
than useful has long ago been exploded.
The occurrences AZ the Tennessee coal
mines. at Homestead. and at Buffalo all
within the past twelve months. showed
the value Of the volunteers IN moments
of grave public peril. The mere existence
Of our military organizations-the fact
thnt they can be summoned at moments
warning-hgs boon worth great deal to
US here II richmond. Hence we imagine
that the only question that will be raised
in the City Council as TO allowing this
increased appropriation will be the city's
ability TO spare the money.
We shall rely to a considerable extent
on the truth of the old proyerb that
where there is will there is way.
This is not infallible in every circum-
stance of life. but we have usually found
that where the Council is sincerely de-
sirous Of expanding money in given
direction it manages to get 1t some
where. That il appreciates the worth OF
its great reserve police force we cannot
doubt, and this money, let US trust, 1T will
get somewhere" and thus give n SUBJ
stantial recognition of the efforts OF the
Colonel and other officers of the First
Regiment to bring 1t mp to standard OF
efficiency never before reached.

So Mrs. CARLISLE would prefer that Mr..
CARLISLE should remain IN the Senate. If
Mr.. CARLISLE wants good advice ne need
not 90 away from home to get it. Mrs.
CARLISLE knows that four years in the
Cabinet would be poor exchange for a
lifetime in the Senate. The Secretary OF
the Treasury is not considered lin the
line of safe presidents to the presi-
dency, but Is Woodworking officer who

Mrs. CARLlsLE's declaration that "JoHN

as an admission that he does not disregard
his wife's counsels.

Eligibility to Office in Virginia.


The State Constitution fixes the quail
6cations Of voters in Virginia. OF course,
therefore. not even the Legislature can
add 10 those qualifications. In Illinois
many years ago, rs we have heretofore
had occasion to say. the Legislature passed
a law providing that in that State no
Judge should be eligible to the United
states Senate but when Judge TRUMBULL
was elected 10 the Senate that body, after
afull discussion of the question. decided
that the law OF Illinois was in conflict
With that provision of the Federal Con-
stitution which fixes the qualifications OF
United States senators, and admitted
Judge TnuxBuLL to the seat he claimed.
The substance Of this decision was that
no State could add to the qualifications
named in the Federal Constitution as
those which United States senator must
possess.
The Constitution Of Virginia provides
that " all persons entitled TO vote and hold
Office, aud none Others. shall be eligible TO
sit as Jurors Shall be entitled TO sit as q
Suror--wheref The first impulse OF per.
son TO whom this interogstory had been
addressed would DO TO reply that person
