Would Not Admit Him to Bail.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Sept. 17.-This
morning Judge Dubois rejected the
motion to admit M. Strickenaden,
charged with lynching, to bail. He also
rejected similar motion as to 4. T.
Armour, who is in jail under On indict-
ment charging lynching. Armour's ar
rest is surprise. He WAS with the
faction opposed to the party supposed to
have done the lynching. Some say he
was indicted by friends OF the lynchers
in order to break the force of the anti
lynching crowd. Judge Cooper has in
structed the new grand jury to continue
the investigation.

Tom Martin and the Walton Bill.

The Richmond correspondent of the Pc
tersburg Index-Appeal writes as follows
TO that paper:
One OF the most earnest advocates or
the Walton bill was Senator-escct Tnomas
g. Martin, whose advice was sought by
the friends OF the measure at every stage
OF the fight Mr.. Martin was IN htich-
mond nearly all the time the Legislature
was In session. and IL Ia suspected mat
he had n good deal 10 do with the Shaping
OF important legislation. He ~ lookeu
up 10 now by very large element OF
Democrats as the leader or the donl-
nant faction OF the party In virginia.
He occ,,pies very nearly the position
the late Senator Barbour filled for many
years. Mr.. Martin will have very
prominent part in mapping out the cam
palgn work next fall IL IL expected
that no will also go on the stump. lie
can make good speech, but is not In any
sense an orator.
We do not fancy the expression "domi-
nant faction" TO our mind the Demo-
cratic party OF Virginia is Il unit-no
factions about It, True we have uh-
ruly members, but not many; we are as
near being a unit as Is the Democratic
party IN any Stdlc III ''i' ~'''
and elsewhere there have always been
"klckers" there always will be.
In the General Assembly our Iarty
members worked well together. To be
sure some of them exercised the right
Of all to vote against the Walton bill;
but though they differed in opinion with
the majority. they would not he pleased
10 hear themselves described as belonging
TO faction"
Most of the opponents OF the Walton
bill belonged to one Of two classes-those
who thought that the Anderson-McCor-
mick law needed no improvement at all
and those who thought that the white
counties should be exempted from the
operations of the Walton bill.
IL Is a fact that Mr.. Martin gave very
valuable help In preparing and passing
the bill. SO did Chairman Ellyson. In
deed, there were "A number OF wel-known
Democrats who were not members of the
General Assembly who helped Messrs.
rcctions
The fact that Chairman Ellyson and
Mr. Martin and other members Of the
State Democratic Committee advised the
passage of the bill very naturally had
great influence: but We are Of the opinion
that IL the bill could have been discussed
more fully there would not have been
half dozen Democrats who would have
voted against it. Then the representa-
tives of all the white counties would have
said-as we have said-let us give the
Australian ballot a fair trial; If 1t does
not come up to expectations We can re-
peal it within a year; If IL puts white
to some extra trouble and
expense let US bear both cheerfully II
by so doing We can probably promote
the welfare of our harassed brethren Of
Tidewater and the Southsde.
These considerations, could they have
been put to the opponents of the mea-
sure calmly and deliberately, instead OF
in the hurry and babel Of the last hours
of the session, would have made our party
in the General Assembly almost a unit
for the new law.

The SeiQniorage Bill,

The announcement that the President
Of the United States will veto the new
Bland bill. If it is ever sent TO him for
his approval or disapproval, did not sur
prise anybody. we suppose. II that bill
is liable to the objections which Mr..
Sherman and other senator's have raised
against 1t, Mr.. Cleveland could not be
expected TO make II law.
But how does it happen that so many
of the abest lawyers in the Senate find
the seisniorage bill open to none of the
objections just referred to? Those able
constitutional lawyers would not sup
port such bill as the one described by
Mr.. Sherman in his forcible remarks in
the Senate on Thursday. when he spoke
OF the new Bland bill, or seigniorage bill,
as follows:
"This $50, 900 IL to be taken in plain
violation of the law of 1890; in plain vio-
iation OF the obligations OF public
faith; in plain violation of the
contract between citizens Of the United
States and the United States at
large. say that this is breach OF
the public faith, which ought 10 stamp
upon this measure the condemnation OF
every man who has any regard for the
obligation Of contracts"
We repeat that no good Democrat
could or would support such bill as Mr..
Sherman described in the above language
So we may set 1t down as certain either
that he Is mistaken as TO the nature OF
the bill, or that the Democrats In the
Senate will unite with him in voting 1t
down.

Painters and Paintings.

Painting completes with literature for the
first place in the development of the
human mind, and the dissemination Of
great ideas and sentiments. There is a
sense in which true art is higher than true
letters, for the literary form gathers into
itself much crude and profane material,
and bears along in its volume the debris
and wreck Of things. which the purer art
studously rejects and casts away
Artists, as well as historians, impart
historical knowledge. Art reveals to the
eye what the paragraphs of the historian
reveal but vaguely TO the understanding.
AS to the vividness of the impression
made there can be no doubt. That which
IS seen flashes into the mind with
sudden CLEAN of reality, while that which
is told by the medium of words comes
into the understanding with more dimness
and difficulty. Paintings are largely tran
scripts Of the things that are done by
the great races of mankind. The artistic
mind is most keenly alive to the true
sense of things. Even the illustrated news
papers, gross and rude as are their at
temptS to depict the aspects of society
furnish, nevertheless, a large amount of
historical material that will hereafter be
used by the sagest of writer's. How much
more. then, will the great thinkers and
historians of the future turn to the art
galleries and varied collections of paint
ings, and of reproductions, with which
our age so fortunately abounds? These
truths have special application to "ramous
Paintings of the World" now being offer
ed at a merely nominal price To the
readers of the Dispatch.
These paintings have not been derived
from one country, one people. or one race.
They have been gathered from the most
diverse and distant quarters. They show
the most striking incidents Of modern So
ciety. They are, TO limited extent,
great battle pictures. Most of the pic
lures, however, represent the peaceful
aspects OF life. Many are domestic and
home pictures. Many others are such as
gather their themes from the romantic
and love-making period. And so our read
ers, to whom we conscientiously recon-
mend Famous Paintings OF the World"
will find in this fine art series the beauti-
full and the diversified qualities of modern
art. These pictures Will even surpass
Sights and Scenes of the World"

A Npedad Cable.

The Baltimore American of yesterday
states-upon what authority we know
not-that there can be no doubt that the
proposition to lay a Pacific cable between
Australia and the western coast of the
United States will prove successful, and,
probably, within a short time. We call
this good news. Australia is too large
n country to be allowed to exist out OF
sight of the whole world. The American
adds:
"a difference of opinion may exist IN
regard to the duty Of the national govern
ment in regard TO the matter. but there
can be no difference in regard 10 the
Importance of such cable. Recent
events In Hawaii and in other islands or
the Pacific have emphasized this need'
and II the governments Of the countries
interested do not see fit to lay the cable
n private corporation Will doubtless DO H.
and make money out of it,
So the cable Is laid down and Australia
brought TO our doors. we care not whether
II is laid by the government or by private
individuals. Richmond is concerned IN
this matter through some Of her men OF
large business

West Virginia Central Company to Build
a New RailrOah.

The West Virginia Central and Pitts
burg Railroad Company Will soon begin
the construction Of line OF road from
Cumberland, Nd, 10 connect with the
Cumberland Valley railroad near Ha.
gerstown, of twenty-eight miles.
The new road will pass through a noun.
famous country. and in its construction
will require a number Of viaducts and
one tunnel under Walnut Ridge, twelve
miles east of Cumberland.
With the completion OF this road, says
the Baltimore sun. the West Virginia Cen
trail and Pittsburg will abandon its coal
shipments by way of the Huntington and
Broad Top line, and will use the Cumber-
land Valley road to Harrisburg, effecting
saving OF fifty miles of haul and avoid
ing two heavy grades, which limit the
number of cars TO "A train. The Cumber-
land Valley road is practically free from
grades. and will permit the hauling OF
heavy trains.
Arrangements have been made for tide
water terminals at Philadelphia for coal
trade in connection with the new line. An
officer Of the West Virginia Central and
Pittsburg said yesterday that the COM
pany preferred To ship the output of its
mines and coke-ovens from Baltimore and
that had II secured control Of the Western
Maryland It's entire tonnage would have
come to Baltimore. Failing to secure the
Western Maryland. this officer added, the
company concluded TO construct the new
line and send its coal to Philadelphia.

rates the Cumberland Valley line. has
agreed to set aside 5 per cent of the
gross freight earnings Of that road as n

The Tobacco-Tax.

remark that there still remains purpose

porary that any Increase OF the tobacco
tax would be disastrous TO the tobacco
interests. Tobacco IL the only farm
product handicapped By a direct tax.
Note the discrimination. bounty on
Louisiana sugar, tax on virginia to-
bacco However. we do not much appre-
bend an increase OF the tobacco tax
We shall never feel that tobacco Ia
safe from an increased tax whilst Con-
gress is in session, or. rather. until that
body shall have disposed OF the tariff
question. Either an income-tax or an In
creased tax on tobacco would seem to be
indispensable. II so. which will gain the
vlctory-that Is. which Will escape? What
says our LynchburG contemporary? Upon
what does IT base its confident expec'a-
ton that there is to be no increased tax
upon manufactured tobacco?
