The advocates of increased activity
in securing good roads are using the
apparent approach of the use of horse
less carriages as an additional argu-
ment in favor of their movement. In
this they are unquestionably in the
right. If horseless vehicles are used
to fill any large place in everyday
life, conditions must be made such
that they may be used for much more
than mere pleasure riding within the
limits where streets are kept paved
and smooth as now. The great major
ity of country roads, even in the bet
ter provided parts of our country in
that regard, are not practicable for
anything of that description. Roads
will have to be immensely improved
above what they now are before the
day of the horse is past in the country.

It is reported that Pres. Faure of
France will visit Russia next spring
as the guest Of Nicholas H., and De
present at the coronation of the lat
ter at Moscow. There would be nat
urally attached considerable impor-
tance to this visit in itself, but if
the French President first visits
Denmark, Sweden and Norway, it will
have additional significance, especial
ly if the programme should include,
as is intimated, grand display of the
combined French, Russian and Danish
fleets at Coburg, England, Germany
and Austria would be inclined to re-
gard this visiting as direct menace,
and counter demonstrations would be
the order of the day. But demon
strations Of this kind do not contri-
butte to the peace of Europe.

From the close Of the war until it
was voted out of power the Republi-
can party steadily reduced the ma
tional debt, and as steadily reduced
the taxes. During Harrison's admin
istration the payments on the princi-
pal of the debt amounted to S244, ,S15,
500, and at its close the war taxes
only those upon liquor and tobacco
remained. Since then not dollar
has been paid. On the contrary the
Cleveland administration has steadily
added TO the debt. 1t has sold two
bond issues of $50, ZOO, 900 each in 1894
and another of s62, ,315, 1000 in 1895
These bonds bear a high rate of in
terest, four and five per cent, and be-
fore they mature they will call for
S124, 900, which added to the princi-
pal makes in round numbers $685.
600, 600 that the country has got to
pay TO cancel the deficiencies up to
date Then there is the shortage
since July 1, which amounts to enough
to swell the total to just about $780,,

Sec. Olney is understood to have
given the British Guiana Venezuelan
boundary question careful consider
alton, aud to have arrived at the con-
clusion that the case is one on which
the United States should declare it
self. The British claim has been a
steadily advancing one, and is die
tated solely by the desire to grab ter
ritory for the purpose of extending
British trade and British dominion.
An admission on the part Of the U. s..
OF the present British claims to Ven
ezuelan territory would be nothing
less than a virtual abandonment of
the Monroe doctrine, and it is under
stood that the administration has de-
termined not only to vigorously re-
assert that doctrine, but to insist upon
its rigid application in the Venezue-
Ian case. The publication of the paper
prepared by Sec. Olney will naturally
be waited for with interest.

The bondholders protective committee

which IL is hoped to rehabilitate the
property II provides for an ass ssment
on the stock In an amount sufficient TO
pay OF the floating debt, amounting TO
ST. co. GO and the car trusts amounting
to S},4t000, besides the necessary expense
Of reorganization. This action would not
only relieve the company OF considerable
interest payments. but also FROM the
payment Of capital sums, and the com
pany's finances would be easier 20 the
extent Of 10000 a year for the first few
years by this adjustment. AS TO the mort

that the holders Of the $4,000 Clinch

Dne-hundred-year per cent. bonds. ami
the 10000 Maryland and washington d.

be effected 10 place the company In safe
~. II is not proposed to forfeit this per-
ntage. but 20 give IN lieu OF the uncol-
lected interest an obligation that would
have priority over the stock. II IL thought
an assessment Of about so pr share on
the Sj7.5ooC0 capital stock Of the COM
pany Will be ample.

sum paid out In judicial salaries. the
individual judges are poorly paid. what
we think could be done to improve TINS
state OF affairs is TO reduce the num-
Der OF judges and give each judge enough
to do. paying him a better salary. TINS
will result in a saving TO the state OF
about $1,000 and a better judiciary.
We speak advisedly when we say "a
better judiciary" for We have hereto
fore shown IN this column that our SIS
ter State has better judiciary than
Virginia has.
We need reform along these lines.
