The Progressive Trolley.

We learn from the Baltimore Sun that all
franchises and rights of way have been
secured OF are guaranteed. it is said, for
an electric railway between Baltimore and
Washington. and construction work will
begin at an early date. The road is to be
thirty-eight miles long. Capital to the
amount of 81, 500 600 has been subscribed,
it is said, to carry out the project.
This news does not surprise us in the
least degree. We have for long time
foreseen the coming Of the day when cleo
trical propulsion would supersede all other
known methods of running from place TO
place and carrying persons and things
from place 10 place. Among the benefits
which the new system will confer upon all
cities and towns will be the settling of
people in the suburban districts instead of
building tenement houses within the cities.
1t is time that measures were taken look
ing into this matter.

much growing because Of Mr.. CLEvK-
LANDS failure to recognize this State moro
fully than he has done. One reason for
this Is that many of our people believe
the fault or misfortune has been largely
our own. We do not seem TO have aimed
for places which it was in the power of tho
President to give ms. considering all Of the
other claims that no has had upon him.
Our recommending seems not TO have been
well done.
We feel sure that Frrz LEE wants no.
thing for himself at the Presidents hands,
and We are equally certain that he has no
wish to become factor in the distribu-
ton of Federal patronage in Virginia. but
since the President has made rule that q
recommendation of our delegation will
not necessarily carry success with It we
know of no other Virginian whom be may
more safely consult than FRI LEE.

Virginia and Patronage.

The Washington newspaper correspond
ents all represent that the President Ia
very fond Of Ex-Governor Frrz LIE. No
doubt this information Is correct. and we
believe that 1t Is true. as they say, that
General Ike will shortly by special invi-
tation pay another visit to the White
House to talk over Virginia affairs.
So far this State has drawn no first or
second-class prize In the distribution OF
Federal patronage, but il may be that we
have been unfortunate In asking for posi-
tions that could not DO awarded US. Or il
may be that great good luck Is yet in store
for us. When the President is more ct lei.
sure than be has yet been be will doubtless
look over the list Of positions still at has
disposal and see what he can do.
While virginians by tho thousand have
sspired to aud worked Eealously for clerk
ships. consulstes. and bureau places, only
. few have aimed higher. We do not hear

JUDGE Hughes on Annexation.

The letter of Judge HUoHEs. which we
published in our last issue, has in it the
ring Of true American policy. He -
always ready 70 give good reasons for the
faith that is in him. The Hawaiians must
fall, If necessary. under the remorseless
wheels of Manifest Destiny Why not!
asks the Judge. The American Indian has
almost disappeared. The earth is in the
end to become the dwelling-place OF the
noble Caucasian and the grave of the
Mongol, the Malay. the African, and the
| indian.
What a pity, as we have heretofore re-
marked, that there are any persons on tho
North American continent VINO are not
Caucasians. To talk about respecting the
autonomy OF the Hawsiians is preposter-
Gus" SAYS Judge HU0Hgs. Let us annex
the islands. and sterling population will
speedily follow. We know that much
from experience. We know that Texas
| has become an empire in wealth and popu-
lation, though she was erected into
State in the forties. Wisconsin, Minneso-
ta Kansas, Nebraska, California. Oregon,
Washington, Montana, Wyoming. Colora-
da. Nevada, and all the rest OF the new
States have become what they are as re-
| suit of the beneficent rule of the govern
ment founded by WASHINGTON. JEFFERSON,
Madison, FRArKLIN, ADAMS, &c. DC.
A ike fate or destiny awaits the ha-
yaiians. Florida cannot offer such
temptations TO the inhabitants of the
northern United States as Hawaii Will
offer TO them within a few years after she
las become "bone of our bone and flesh
of our flesh" II Is indeed q charming
country as 1t is. But when once she has
felt the influence of American industry
and enterprise, and the commerce OF the
East shall pass her doors en- route TO and
from the Nicaragua canal and the wilder
ness of the islands shall blossom like the
rose. Hawaii will be a sort of terrestrial
paradise.
Judge HUaHEs forewarns Mr.. CLEVELAND
not TO side with the North on this ques-
ton. As the Judge says, all our valuable
acquisitions have been made by southern
etatesmen. Let the North learn lesson
from the history of previous annexations.
We trust that no southern man will allow
any influence of any sort to keep him from
following in the footsteps of Mr.. JEFFRR-
son. There lies the East" There the
tides of commerce throb with untold
wealth. We thank Judge HUGHEs for his
Virginia letter.

The Pleasure of Being Interviewed.

The Pleasure of Being Interviewed.
Provided that one is not charged with a
crime concerning which he Is asked TO
give an immediate explanation the average
man is pleased when he is requested to
yentilate his views through the medium OF
n reputable and widely-read daily paper.
1t is recognized IA compliment, since 1t
implies that he is person Of consequence,
or at least that the special knowledge OF
which he is possessed is of value to the
public.
There are some men who are always
thus accessible to the reporters, and they
are generally level-headed. wide-awake.
self-reliant fellows. Others equally alert
and capable, but not so bold. dread the
interviewer: or more properly speaking,
fear lest they should say something to-day
which would cause them annoyance upon
being printed tomorrow. These people,
and some other good souls, steer clear OF
the reporters-that is, reporters at home,
but when they go away they fall easy
victims to the Establishments of strange
newspaper men.
Every Gay VI I"O We eoo III '"O NO'"iii" 10
of the Washington Post interviews with
Virginians who have been sealed docu-
ments" to US. They are dumb as oysters
here, but are as loquacious as the best away
from homo. Perhaps there is something
in the air. or elsewhere. in Washington
which makes these Virginians laxative.
This is phase Of human nature that we
have been studying for some time. The
key to it we have not yet got. Perhaps
the compliment Of being approached by
an interviewer grows according to the
victims distance from home. Perhaps II
is luxury which man allows himself
when he goes away from home, just as he
yields to the temptations of great city in
which he is a stranger.
Who knows?

Washington city has more than her fair
share OF clerks in the Treasury Depart
ment, Secretary CARLISLE thinks, and he
proposes to reduce the number according
ly. His purpose is to make an equitable
distribution of this patronage. and 1t is
laudable; but he has undertaken formi-
dable job.
II he persists he will hear almost as
many growls and howls as if he were en-
gagged in uprooting the government. He
will have much sympathy and little help
from the country at large. Washington

.1ndce sneer and the brotherhood

JuQG6 Epeer anu tIS biOlloA hOON'
Last Saturday Judge SPEER, of the
United States Circuit Court, rendered IN
Macon, Ca, his decision on petition OF
certain members of the Brotherhood OF
Locomotive Engineers praying the court
TO direct the receiver OF the Georgia Gen.
trail railroad to carry out the contract with
the brotherhood which was In force when
the receiver was appointed The decision
will be far-reaching in it's effects If it is
affirmed by the Supreme Court of the
United States. The opinion which sus-
tains it is marked by great fairness and in
dicates determination on Judge SPEER's
part to administer the law without fear,
favor, or affection. We quote paragraph
or two from the opinion:
alt Is clear that when the property Of a rail-
way or other corporation IL being administered
by receiver under the experimenting power
Of court OF equity 1t Is competent for the court
20 adjust differences between the receiver and
his employees, which In the absence of such ad-
iustment would tend TO inIure the property and
70 defeat the purpose of the rcceivership. In
deed, the power Of the court to direct a contract
be,weeni its officers does not appear to be ques-
toned"
Judge SPEER then quotes the twelfth
rule of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers. 1t is as follows:
"12. That hereafter whom an Issue has been
sustained by the grand chief and carried into
effect by the Brotherhood OF Locomotive En-
gineers IL ehan be recognized as violation OF
the obligation n a member Of the Brotherhood
Of Locomotive Engineers who may DO employed
on a railroad run IN connection with or adjacent
10 said road handle the property belonging
TO said railroad or system In any way that may
benefit said company with which the Brother
hood OF Locomotive Engineers are at issue until
the grievances or issues of difference OF any
nature or kind have been amicsbly settled"
Judge SPEEB holds the scales in equal
poise and says as to the other side of the
question;
"Any combination or agreement OF railroad
officials or other representatives OF capital with
the same effect VIII be equally under the ban OF
those penal stasutes. The court advises that
organized labor present its grievances to the
courts and speedy and exac. justice viii DO ad-
ministered."
So the Judge prepares the way for the
adjustment in court of all these Difficult
ties between railroad employees and rail-
road officials.
