SENATOR DANIELS LETTER.

We publish on this page, by permission
of it's author, an admirable letter from
Senator John w. Daniel. Not much com
ment is necessary. for The Times has so
frequently argued for cloture rule in
the Senate that no further expression of
opinion upon that point from it is called
for now.
We are not, however, now prepared to
approve a bankrupt act While it is hard
that men overwhelmingly ia debt should
be cut off from all hope in the future, we
saw the working of the bankrupt act of
1867. and we can candidly say that it is
impossible to have amongst people a
more demoralizing influence than it was.
1t may be that this act will be better
administered. On the Nicaragua canal
question and his opposition to increase
of the regular army. Senator Daniel is
clearly right. Our information regarding
the conditions existing in Arizona and
New Mexico is too limited for us to judge
intelligently of the proposition to make
them States.
~ - HceuleSH " say tHdt We nearby
agree with Major Daniel regarding State
banks Major Daniel is right, also. in
voting TO take the differential tax from
sugar, and we entirely agree with him
about free raw materials" Altogether,
we can cheerfuly say that if Major
Daniel would just get right on silver he
would represent Virginia as satisfactorily
to her people as any of her sons that she
has ever sent TO the United States Senate.
And who knows but that the recent
election may have caused him TO see free
silver in a new light. Certainly the peo-
pie of the United States don't want it.
Ought they TO have it forced on them

UNITE THEM

The Dispatch has had several articles
of late urging a union between the cities
of Manchester and Richmond. The Times
long ago declared itself in favor of this,
ard it now repeats its opinion that the
union should be effected, and at the next
session of the Legislature. There are
some persons in Richmond who oppose
the union under an apprehension that
II would impose additional financial bur
dens upon Richmond But this is an err
TOR. Manchoster's revenues are ample
for meeting Manchesters expenses. By
uniting both cities under one government
the cost of running that one government
would be considerably less than the cost
of running the two, so that such union
would really add to Richmond's revenue.
Besides, the two cities as one would grow
far more rapidly than they grow as two;
values would increase in Manchester, and
thus taxable resources would receive an
increase that would certainly be con.
siderable. but the extent OF which cannot
be estimated. Let Manchester's Council
appoint a committee forthwith TO meet
one TO be appointed by Rtchmond's coun-
ell, that the details Of a plan Of union
may DO perfected 40 that bill for It

THE NEGRO 10 BIZ RE tARDED As
pUBIIC ENEMY?

The discussion which took place We'd
uesday everIng in the Committee OF
lanes River Improvement came 10
raueht because the place of cook on the
citv's boats was subsequently abolished
but we cannot permit 1t to pass without
a word Of comment.
Mr.. Noble said that he spoke for the
Democratic party, and that 1t could not
exnect IA control the laboring vote OF
Richmond if negroes occupied places ior
which white men were applicants MI
Epps said he would not feel ike goihB
before the people and seeking their votes
nc lang as negroes occupied places for
which white men were applicants. The
Mace of cook on boats owned by the
civ is about as subordinate as any en-
plovment can be. The negro is especially
well fitted 10 fiji it, and II ne is 10 pe
precluded from that it must be upon
nrinciple that declares he shall nave no
public employment Of any sort whatever
The Times will never agree to any such
proposition The negro is here as a per-
manent part of our population. and ne
is a most useful part Of our population
He contributes. by his labor, enormously
to the general prosperity, and 1t is, there
fore our duty to treat him as an ele-
ment Of great importance to our pros
perity. rather than as an alien and an
outcast. who is to be regarded both as
such and as a public enemy also. Sound
craftsmanship. as we'll as humanity, die
tates that we shall pursue a course to-
wards him exactly the reverse Of this.
It dictates that we should spare no eff
fort to elevate him, TO educate him. and
to instruct him in his duties and response
blites, so as to make Of him as good
citizen as possible. We shall make no
Roadway in this If we present his own
government to him in the light of an
agency that considers him its natural
enemy, and that would rather see him
starye than prosper
SO far as Mr.. Mobiles reference to the
Democratic party is concerned, we say
to him that Democracy's first and chief
aim is to secure equal justice to all, and
that he is very far from helping true
Democracy when he would have it plant
itself upon a proposition that is the en-
bodiment Of the most fragrant injustice.
