Total debt. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. S2955s2.9J
The rate Of taxation in Manchester is
the same as in Richmond $40 on the
bundled dollars. on the face of this
| statement It is evident that instead II
being a charge on Richmond, even sup
posing all Of Manchester's expenses re-
maincd as they are, she would pay a net
revenue into Richmond's treasury OF
more than 5000. But all Of her expen-
ditures, except the interest on her debt
would be wiped out This would throw
into Richmond's treasury a net sum Of
about $50, 600. All Of those things in the
way Of administering government which
Manchester now pays for would be paid
for ont OF hichmond's general treasury
That S, instead Of a special appropriation
for tolice OF Manchester, Manchester
would be one of Richmonds police dis
tricts, attended to by Richmond's police
force, and so on Of all the other depart
ments. Very small addition to Richmond's
working force in any department would
be required, so that Manchester would
contribute a decided net sum TO the
joint revenues Of the two cities. There is
another consideration of immense moment
to be kept in view. Land as sites for
factories, etc, is many times more cost |
~ in Richmond than it is directly across |
the river and Richmond's merchants and |
would find IL VERT greatly
10 their interests 20 erect their plants in
Manche ster on this account, while they
would be in every respect entirely ac-
'essibe to them If located there. If the
wo cities were united under one govern
nent Inany Richmond plants would be
coated In Manchester on account OF the
reat cheapness of ground.
But you viii ASK why do they not 20
mere now? The answer is: that IT IS be-
ause Manchester is under a separate
overnment. The Richmond man Is I'M
'liiing TO erect his plant in a jurisdic-
on In the control of which he has no
oice But let the whole be under one CITY
oVernment and 1t is the same thing 20
I'm whether his plant is in thar Fart of
lie city OF Richmond, which lies on the
ie other side Of the James, or in that
men Hes on this side Of the river. In
iat case he, a Richmond man. would

SHOULD the senate agree with the House and give majority for the unconditional repeal of the Sher man act, and it seems possible and probable that such will be the out come of the vote, the problem pre- sented is, what about silver coinage in the future. A large majority of the democratic members of the House and some of the republicans assert ed during the debate that they were favorable to silver coinage, and would give an equitable silver coin age measure most hearty support, but the first and most necessary leg islation was the repeal of the Sher- man law. There was persistent and energetic pressure upon con gross from the outside in the inter est of "business" for immediate re- peal of the existing law. This pressure proved even more effective than the most sanguine expected. The vote was overwhelmingly one sided. This too after days ofspeech making in winch the science or al legged science and principles of finan- ce were elaborated upon for the editi- cation and education of the people It is to be hoped in the interest of all concerned that the grave and reverened Senators will not devote too much time to talk. An early vote will be best. It is not suppos- ed that the Wilson bill, which is simply a repeating measure, will end currency legislation. Silver coin is and will continue part and par eel of our currency. The enactment of a new law on a fair and just basis that will place and keep gold and silver at a parity can and should be effected expeditiously. Gentle men of congress do what should and can be done without loss of time Business is business and this is no time for serio-comic oratorical dis plays.

The Latest from Washington.

The Federal electio n law is to be repealed.
 The President will endeavor to have the tax on State banks repeal ed.
 There is to be reorganization and general turning over of the Post Of fee Inspectors.
 General pleasure is expressed at Washington over the return home of Mrs. Cleveland.
 The condition of the national treasury is causing some alarm, deficiency being feared.
 Supervisor of Elections Daven- port of New York, has been fired bodily from office. by Secretary Car lsle.
 The Interior Department is con templating the opening of two or three Indian reservations fo settle ment. It is believed that unconditional repeal of the purchase clause of the Sherman law will go through the Senate.
 Mugwumps are making howl oy- CT the discharge of Eugene Gaddis from Government employ by Secre- tary Carlisle. Warming has been given in the Senate that the iron hand of closure may be applied to force a vote on the silver repeal bill. An important conference which the President attended, and at which the repeal of the State bank tax was discussed, was held at the office of the Secretary and Treasury.

TIE present administration has been in power five months. It's work has been very slow in the mat ter of transferring federal offices to the control of men who aided in bringing about a change in the ad- ministration and who are in sympa- thy with the government, It is dis couraging to patriotic workers, det- rimental to the cause of reform in political matters and injurious to the interests of the country for the enemies of the administration and opponents of reform in the conduct of public affairs to be allowed to re tain positions in spite of the pro test so emphatically made in the national election. To allow otfens- i've partisan workers to remain in positions contrary to the expressed wishes of the people themselves, is a detriment to the best interests of the public service.

IN this time of general distrust as to financial affairs the recent reports as to President Cleyeland's failing health have contributed to increase the public alarm. It has been said that he is suffering from an organic disease which must result in death, or at least disqualify him from the exacting cares of his official posi- tion. Lay all political views and preiudices to one side, the county has been looking to him and de- pending on his cool judgement and steady hand to help it in the time of trouble. We are glad, however, to see all these reports as to the presidents illness contradicted. Stories of this kind are put in cir culation by alarmists for purpose, either for the love they have for the dark side of life or because they hope to profit by the calamity of others.

THE special pleas and legerdemain of vocabulary used by congressman who are false to the pledges made by them during the campaign will not hoodwink their constituents. The advocacy of a double standard and the continuance of silver coin age before the election cannot be made to consist with the advocacy in congress of the repeal of the sherman act with out any provision whatever being made for future sill yer coinage Those democrats in congress who assist in demonetizing silver and curtailing it's use as money will find their course difficult to explain or sustain before the peo- plc.

THERE was fair attendance at the court house last Friday night at the meeting for the New School En- terprise, and a commendable interest was shown in the proceedings The entertainment features lent spice and relish to the occasion, and the busi- ness in hand had a good strong inn pulse given to it. The speeches made were calculated to convince the most skeptical, if it is possible to suppose man or woman can be foundin Russellyille who would be skeptIcal as to the supreme impor- tance of this enterprise to our town. The time may have been when a man could be skeptical and even hostile to educational interests with out being criminal to the interests of his town and community. But if it ever was, 1t is no more. There is new age on us, and broad demands and we must meet them. There is a common judgement among men that leads them to despise town or com munity that IS not progressive in educational matters. No surer sign can be had of eventual rot and death in any town than to see it careless about such matters while it's sisters are emptying out their dollars, in this the only way to anchor prosperity on the solid rock, man may play sham and amass property on the lines of individual selfishness, but town cannot. It never did, and never will, and that is right, it ought not. If there has not been before, there will be hereafter such a degree of culture in the people of our commonwealth as will make them absolutely hate a place and avoid it that shows itself to be dominated by rules of selfish ness and greed. The citizenship of the future will have to be attracted and will be held by the inducements after excellencies of culture and the advantages of cizilized refinement. These are epitomized by the spirit that throws life and energy into the best aspirations of men, and makes them build schools and maintain them. Hear it; The town in the flu ture that holds its place among it's competitors will be the town that is abreast and showing ahead in educa- tional matters,-that proves its right to the respect of mankind by it's work to cherish and develop what is best in man and inspire the highest capabilities of it's youth. Let this school be planted. The watchword is Onward. No back step must be thought of.
