The sound.Money Convention.

We know no reason why Richmond
should not be represented in the sound
money convention TO be held next month
in Memphis. The convention will not be
pledged before hand TO any theories as
to sound money" OF course we should
not have mere doctrinaires sent thither
TO vex the ears of the delegates from
other places. Richmond has men COM
petent to discuss the questions which VIII
be raised In that convention. and We are
not at all afraid 10 entrust TO them the
duty of representing the body of the
people here. The abest, the best-inform-
ed, and the most thoroughly equipped
delegates we can send 10 the Memphis
convention will find in that body men
worthy of their steel. At any rate, no
harm can come from full discussion of
the currency question. Truth Is mighty
and will prevail.

Help Make Rates High.

RICHMOND, VA, April -, 1870.
To the Editor of the Dispatch
While Richmond has an excellent FIRE
Department., it's efficiency mas beSH

For instance. on Main street between

one 4-inch main, which Is suinclent 10

Tais fact. coupled with the INSURGENCY
of the water-nressure, oftentmes at muny
points, has attracted the attention OF me
flre-nsurance companies. and has been
commented upon and reported 70 the
National Board Of Fire Underwriters ny

whose duties would be 70 investigate the
cause Of all fires and inspect the IL

plain to the many inclined 20 kick the
reason for the existing tarir OF nre-in-
surance rates. The facilities for the eX-
tinqulshment Of fires Is Of vital interest
TO Insurance companies. and when we are
lacking not only in apparatus and sum

for days az a time water has been drawn
from nearly empty reservoirs qs fast as

OF the city there was hut six pounds

The Rev. w. n. Cleveland, brother OF
the President who is pastor OF the Pres
byterian church at Chaumont. n. Y,
though a staunch Democrat himself, has
a congregation in which there are few
Democrats. His recent trouble with his
church, during which he was asked TO re,
sign, was largely the result Of politics,
though one Of the charges against him
was that he was short in his accounts.
The result OF the trouble was an appeal
to presbytery. resulting In Mr.. Cleve-
lands complete triumph. The presbytery
declared that he should continue in the
pastorate.
The Rev. MIR. Cleveland was born In
Windham (now Willimantic), Conn. April
7. 1882. and Is some years older than
his brother Grover. who was born In 1887.
There were nine children. OF these two
brothers were In the late war. and. sin
gularly enough, after escaping all the
peris OF battle, both persisted In the
burning OF the steamer Missouri while
on their way to the Bermudas. where
they were to engage 10 business. There
were five sisters. all Of whom are living.
and all married save Rose Elizabeth. who
is known TO the whole country as the
Lady OF the White House during Presi-
dent Cleveland's first term. Mr.. Cleve-
lands personality is pleasing and impress
sive. The clergyman. like the President.
exhibits self-reliance and a power OF de-
termination. but Is said not to be q bril-
liant preacher.

What Is Sound Currency!

What is a sound currency? The Phila-
delphia Bulletin seems to think that this
is a question of which asplrants TO the
presidency fight shy. They are ready
enough. that paper says, to tell what
would constitute bad currency, but
not so ready to tell what would cons'i-
tute good currency. Some OF these dis
tinguished gentlemen who won't enlighten
US as TO what would constitute a good
advocates Of what the western papers
style "red-dog, wildcat" currency.
That is TO say, they denounce the 50-cent
silver dollars. holding that they would
of themselves constitute an uusound cur
rency. So also. they denounce as un-
sound currency greenbacks, silver certii-
Gates. national-bank notes, and all sorts
of national currency except gold and
silver.
Now who will be the first OF the aspi-
rants to the presidency TO tell us what
sort of currency would satisfy him
What would be sound currency?
Would ii be currency based upon no.
thing? That is TO say. circulating notes
such as we had before the war between
the States, which were based upon spe-
Gle and credit? In those ante-bellum
days the independent" banks. as they
were called. were allowed to issue cir
culating notes upon specie to the amount
OF two or three dollars OF the bank s
notes to every specie dollar II had in its
vaults. You don't believe that anybody
favors this sort Of currency now? Well.
inform yourselves in the premises. and
you will find that the whole question is
opened when the affirmation Is made
that the National Government must have
nothing to do with furnishing any other
currency than gold and silver.
Let some presidential aspirant clear
up this matter.

says that the Inauguration of this troll.
ley mail service will be decided step
towards the faciiitation Of the delivery

stations. And this remark reminds us
that every city large enough TO be- sup
piled with sub-stations will expect the
United States Government to increase
their mail accommodations BY the sddi-
,lon OF trolley-cars carrying mail matter
in a hurry all over such city. The new
cars will contain every modern electri.
cal device TO facilitate the handling Of
mail matter.
The interior of these cars will be
given up entirely TO mail purposes. and

sive control Of q regular railway-mail

its success. II our girls are not to be

words. the cars will be convertible either
into mail-cars In the service OF the gov
eminent. or into passenger-caSs. though
they may be and will be run as trail

to be attached to and run by the regular

The reader will see at once that no.
body can interfere with the running OF
these mail-cars without rendering him
self liable to arrest and punishment Tor
interfering with the United States mail.
There will be no question OF jurisdiction

will control these trolley mail-cars, and
