We trust Council viii tonight awake
TO something like appreciation Of the
very grave responsibility that rests
upon II in the matter Of elecJing a new
Health officer. The health and mater
ial interests of the city have already
suffered severely from the laXity, in
competency and gross acknowledgement
OF this department, and if an instant
change for the better is not made, there
is no telling how serious the results
may be. not only to health, but to the
business interests Of the city.

When the rupture between Emperor
William and Bismarck occurred. il was
confidently predicted that should the eX-
Chancellor live long enough the time
would come when the young Emperor
would need and seek his advice. Accord
ing to late dispatches from Berlin. this
prediction has been verified. Ii Is now
stated that Williams recent visit 10
Friodrichsruhe was not, as was first given
out. merely friendly call for the pur-
pose Of paying his respects to his grand
fathers aged servant. Tho object Of the
visit. we are told. was to consult Bis
marck concerning wcighty affairs OF state,
particularly the Socialist question. There
never has been a day since Bismarck was
forced out Of the chancelorship that he
has not been as powerful with the con-
servative German masses as he was when
he was officially all-powerful There never
has been an hour when his loyalty to the
house of Hohonzollern could have been
successfully challenged. and it may yet be
his work to strengthen the hands OF the
Emperor as no other man in the empire
is able to do.

from which anybody might well shrink
TO undertake TO formulate any financial
measure which would command the sup
port OF n Democratic President. Repub-
lean House OF Representatives. and
Senate in which no party Is dominant.
Indeed, /; seems like hopeless task
which the President has called upon Con-
gross to perform: but We must all pre-
pare ourselves TO make concessions whom
ever they can be honestly and conscicn-
tiousy made.
After. however. the most conciiiatory
members OF each several party snail nave
done their duty In respect OF this mat
ter. each house of Congress VIII nnd II
self called upon every day TO pass upon
amendments which will most assuredly
be proposed by theorists and doctrinairos.
There will be numerous amendmeni s OIL
fered which will bear upon the silver
question. There will he numerous other
amendments offered which will bear upon
the greenback question. There VIII ne

which will bear upon the ques-
ton OF repeating llt iV-i''-N'''' w.
upon the circulating notes of state
banks There will be numerous other
amendments offered looking 10 the sub
stitution Of State banks fol ma
iional banks. and State-bank notes
for national-bank notes. In TACT
there Will be numerous amendme nts
offered touching all sorts of currency
questions. There is no previous question
i'm the Senate and this body is averso
in an cases TO hasty legislation. by the
time. therefore that Congress can oe IN
duced to pass law to relieve the coun-
try from its unhappy condition tner'
may be a new condition of things brought
about either by some unexpected recon-
mendations Of the President. or by some
bill that will commend itself 10 the ia
vor Of the President and both houses Of
Congress.
If the reader will ponder what We nave
said he will be prepared to find financial
legislation dragging its slow length along
and exhausting the patience not only oil
the people. but of the President ana
both houses Of Congress. Let US ada
that there will be speeches innumerable
made whilst this legislation is pending.

Do not be impatient at the delay In
legislation. which will be sure TO result
from the fact that there II no one in
Congress who can point out the path
which that body should pursue. Recol-
lect how long IL took Congress 10 pass
the bin repeating the purchasing clause
OF the Sherman silver law. and make up
your minds that a Congress composed as
is the existing one Will not be likely to
improve upon the snairs pace OF the

According to the World Almanac for
1896 the senate OF the present Congress
consists OF IS members. OF whom AZ ar,

"A Venezuelan" writing TO the New
York Sun, says that it is the rarest thing
in venezuela TO see a full-blooded negro
and whenever one is encountered in
seanort town it may safely nc waGered
tina he Is either an immigrant or sau"r
frCm tic British West Indies. SlaV'rV
was aut hshed by the decree or larch ~
1874 But adds the Suns correspondent
tho distinctive Vcnczuelans, so far as
they are modified from the original
Spanish type. are modified by Indian ad-
mixture. The pure Indian population OF
Venezuela is to this day very consider
able, constituting about 10 per cent. OF
the total According to government sta
tistics compiled in 1889, there were at
that time 326,OO0 Indians in the country,
OF whom $4,000, or nearly "a per cent,
were classed as civilized. Indeed, some
men most distinguished in Venezuelan
history have been of direct Indian extrac-
ton. For example. President Paez, whose
memory is venerated by his country
men next TO that of Simon Bolivar, was
nearly, If not quite, full-blooded Nene-
zuelan Indian.
The Suns correspondent further says
IT used TO be the studied practice of Eu-
ropean aliens in Venezuela TO assume
an arrogant and presumptuous bearing
I'm their relations to the c;tizens and OH
Gals of the country. This was particu-
larry observable in the heightened gentle
men Of the CONSULAR service. Every petty
commercial factotum Of European
Power fanciod himself a great diplomat
and a parsonage OF distinction, on whose
part IL was condescending TO deal on
terms Of equality with the President of
the republic Guzman Blanco changed all
that. He was the first President TO teach
a much-needed lesson 10 the foreign re-
presentativcs-particu the English.
The case of the United states
Minister Mr.. Pile Of Virginia. is well
remembered in diplomatic annals This
gentleman ventured 10 present himself
TO the President on one occasion minus
Il necktie President Blanco very sharply
reminded him of his forgetfulness OF eti-
quette and shortly sfterward sent him
about his business. .s
Who Mr. Pile IL or was the Dispatch
doesn't know We recall no Virginia
family Of that name.

The accepted English pronunciation OF
Venezuela is Ven-e-zwc-la; the third c

nunciaton is Na-nath-wa-la; the three
first as long. the final as in far.
a tribe of Indians inhabited the eastern
shore of Lake Maracaibo when Ojcda. tho
Spanish discovcrcr, landed there IN 1889
They were fishermen. and built their
houses on piles in the water. Ojeda was
reminded by their dwellings of Venice,
whence he called the country Venezuela.
Probably the Onotes (O-no-iaes) were soon
carried off into slavery: but huts similar
TO theirs are still seen in the same region.

Judge Hughes seems to be willing 10
overlook what he considers the mistakes
OF President Cleveland. and joins hands
with him in his message upon the Nene-
zuelan question. The Judge says that
that message is "a splendid expression
Of an American policy in the true Anne
rican spirit" Now, let us read again
the charges that Judge Hughes
brings against the President. We quote
from his letter in Sundays Dispatch
For one. I have not seen until now
much in Mr.. Cleveland's public action TO
approve. His management Of the Ha-
Naiian business was un-American ana
pro- British. His stand on questions re-
atiug TO the Nicaraguan canal and Cen
trail America has been uncertain and un-
nronounced His management OF the
Alaska seals business was blunderlng
and unsatisfactory: his money policy mas
been deeply injurious 10 the interests
of the American people. and thoroughly
English in spirit and effect But II Is
long lane that has no turn. The Presl-
dent has come up nobly with his round
turn. His message is splendid express
sion OF an American policy, in the true
American spirit
Here we have language which may DC
construed to mean that the President
is understood by Judge Hughes to be
ready to stand by his splendid Ameri-
can policy" in the true American
spirit" At any rate, Judge Hughes
names all the charges which he has to
bring against Mr.. Cleveland, and speaks
we take it, for thousands of Republicans.
He may wish. also. to be understood as
being willing to subordinate his views
on the silver question to his views on
the great questions involved in the Nene-
zuelan affair.
Whatever may be Judge Hughess in
tentions in this iatter behalf, every body
must acknowledge that he is thoroughly
prepared to maintain anywhere the Judg-
ment which he has rendered in favor OF
the Presidents splendid American po-
Icy.

Members OF the City Council have OF
late complained n good deal about oeing
overworked. We shall not dispute Inv
fact that these gentlemen give srea'
deal OF time TO the city. nor mat the"
duties arc often laborious. and are seldom
approc,atod by the public: but for these
very reasons we should think that they
would welcome a commission to manage
the gas-works and another commission
TO help them in matters OF finance ana
audit.
We admit that the Gas Commission
would take n good deal OF patronage out
of the hands Of the City Council, but the
Finance Commission would take nome
none except the appointment of the pro-
posed accountant. With the help that
these two commissions could give the
City Council II could perform its other
duties far more satisfactorily to the pub
lie and itself than II is now doing. Then
members would not be so badly over
worked Then we might hope TO near
OF no more defacations such as have
brought our city government into disre-
pute OF late.
We earnestly hope that the members oil
the city Council will not only abandon
their unwise and ill-timed attempt TO I'M
dermine the Board of Pubic Interests
but will give their support to the estab-
llshmcnt OF these two commissions We
believe that our people will be content

fishing two new commissioner, but II
these are denied them. in the near future
there may be- a popular demand for
greater changes.
The dlsgraceful disclosures at the City
Works will not soon be forgotten
and IL is due to the public that strenu-
Gus effort should be made by the Demo
cratic party 20 obtain legislation that Will
guarantee better management Of the
gas-works In the future The Board OF
Finance and Audit. in addition to giving
the city Council valuable aid in matters
relating TO raising and disbursing reve-
nues. should also be charged with the
duty of enforcing settlements between
the several departments OF the city gov
eminent.
Serious losses have been brought upon
our city by defalcations that have oc-
CURED in three departments. In one OF
these there was no recovery upon the
official bond. In another the city had 10
content itself with a compromise; while
in the case now pending Vt is understood
that the surety will raise a point or points
OF law which may result more or less
dlsastrousy for US. BY all means we
should have a board Of finance and audit.
Not to have it will be as much as TO
say that We do not mean to profit by our
costly experience with defauters.
The Dispatch has never been disposed
to carp at our city government We have
given praise whenever We could do so,
and we should not urge the changes we
now suggest Il we did not believe that
they were clearly TO the interest OF the
public. and the councimen as well. To
let such exposures as those that have
been made in connection with the gas
works pass without making a vigorous
effort to prevent their repetition would
be for the Democratic party 10 prove UNI
faithful to the charge committed TO ii by
the people Of Richmond
