AT WORK At ST. LOUIS.

The National Republican Convention CT
fected temporary organization yester-
day with Mr. Fairbanks, Of Indiana as
temporary chairman. Mr.. Fairbanks was
born in Ohio. and is a personal friend Of
McKinleys. lie is also successful cor
poration lawyer. and candidate for the
United States Senate 10 succeed the Hon
Daniel w. Voorhees,. Standing before
900 delegates and ten or twelve thousand
other people. he seems to have realized
that that was the opportunity of his me-
and he seized 1t with avidity, and ad-
dressed the convention with proiiXity.
His great purpose Gin addition TO vaunt-
ing HIMSELF seems to have been TO prove
that the Republicans surrendered the
government in apple-pie order, so TO
speak. and that the Democrats had
brought it to its present distressed con
dition.
Mr.. Fairbanks IS the author Of the In
diana platform" and when he came to
speak on the currency question he de-
clared himself against the free coinage
of silver in terms which he meant to be
unobiectionable to the ''moderates' Of
the convention. or course, he lauded
protection. and he was exceedingly fam
boyant about free Cuba" and the en-
forcement Of the Monroe doctrine. Upon
the whole we regard Mr. Fairbanks $
speech as valuable only as a sample Of
the oratory that the Republican orators
will indulge in during this campaign.
The Fairbanks speech delivered. the con-
vention completed its temporary organi-
cation. and appointed committees. and
adjourned. to meet at 10 o'clock this
morning. which will be IL o'clock by Rich
mond time
II is now so nearly settled that the
Committee on Resolutions will report.
and the convention adopt, clean-cut,
straightout. unequivocal gold-standard
platform, little interest is felt on that
score. except as to what the free-silver
delegates viii do. 1t would seem that
If there is to be a bolt, it will be a bolt
on small proportions.
And, as to the vice-presidency the tele-
graphic dispatches tell us that Hanna
has authorized" Plat to name the man.
Hanna is the managing director of the
Mckinley boom, while Platt is the New
York boss, who has fought Mckinley SO
hard. If this news be true it goes to
show that Mckinley thinks Platt is a
man of enough Importance 10 warrant
him in Offering the olive-branch TO him
and that the Buckeye Napoleon does not
feel certain that he will have a walk
over in the Empire State. If he felt
dead sure" of CARRYING New York state
he would take pleasure in Furnishing Plat

, GOOD WORD FOR WEyLEI.

We feel constrained to say a good
word for Captain-General Weyler. He
may not be altogether as black as he is
generally painted. as is proved by his
restricting the expectation Of bananas
from cuba. We know that the profess
sional bone settlers, the fruit vendors
and the proprietors Of adhesive plasters
brulse curers. and the like will put the
worst possible construction upon this
latest edict Of the Captain-GeneraFs' and
endeavor to make it appear that 1t Is
another attempt TO cripple certain lines
Of American trade and industry. But
there is another side 10 the matter. The
restriction Of the banana trade VIII save
many man from ALPHABETICALLY and
morally. Nothing has proved more hu-
initiating and demoralizng to the Ameri-
can people than the banana trade. 1t
has caused some of the best, most highly
respected, and most upright men in
every community to suddenly lose their
dignity. 20 down into the gutter, and use
phraseoIogy that was positively shocking.
II has been the most fruitful source Of
backsliding known. IL has made
some Of the most retiring and amiable OF
citizens bumptious, and metamorphosed
some of the most contented Of bur
friends into soreheads. With all Difference
TO those engaged in it and their allies.
we would say that the banana trade is
a slippery business anyhow, and we
think the general public ought to give
Weyler the benefit Of doubt in judging
of his intentions in restricting it.

l. Sons Of Confederate Veterans.
Of this city. to form gene
raj confederation OF the organiza-
lions Of the Sons. is step in the right
direction. and NO better time could have
been selected for giving it practical shape
than the occasion Of the coming great
Confederate reunion here. As set forth in
the Dispatch Of Sunday. meeting Will
be held at Lee Camp Hall on the Both of
this month to take the necessary steps
for organizing the confederation, and to
this meeting every camp of Sons in the
South is requested to send three delegates.
Many camps Of Sons will attend the re-
union. and, OF course, these will be repre-
scented in the meeting; but It is hoped
that al others will send delegates also.
IL will not be many years before the
last Of the camps of veterans will have
adjourned forever, as there will not be
MN left TO answer roll-call In the
mean time, the sons of those who wore
the gray ought TO be perfecting an or
ganization by which they will be enabled
to carry on the work Of the camps Of
Confederate veterans and the United Con-
federate Veterans in every detail.

C.py STREET AND FIRST STREET

II seems odd that the subcommittee OF
the Council Committee on Streets should
have reported in favor Of allowing the
Traction Company to extend its lines to
Hollywood Cemetery by way of First
Cary. and Beech streets.
A better route than this ought TO be
found for the Traction Company. 1t isn't
fair TO It that IT should be forced to de-
bouch from Broad street at point more
than a half-mile too far to the east
ward.
Objection was made to the company
running down Shafer street, and IKE
objection was made as to Madison street;
and then the subcommittee fixed upon
First street as the point Of departure from
the company's main line. or course, the
residents along the line OF First street
and Cary street will kick" too and they
can do so with much reason, since II
IS unnatural that the Hollywood branch
line should leave the main line so lar
10 the eastward.
We cannot believe that the route
chosen will be acceptable to the com
udnN. uflltStt lllI'fIf ~ nus a. '-'++'
ask permission. not only TO run up cary
street. but to run down Cary street to
the business centre OF the city. For
no other reason that we can imagine
could the company wish 10 start for Hol-
lywood from First street, when 1t
might (or. at least, should start for that
Mace by much nearer line.
If the city means to give the Traction
Company the right TO extend Its lines
TO Hollywood, it ought to give 1t the
shortest and best line possible. But
If the line is to be extended down First
street. the shortest way to reach Holly
wood would be via Spring street This
would give the company all the travel to
and from the penitentiary, and also all
that to and from oregon Hill and south
Pine street-two thickly-settled neighbor-
hoods.
The matter Is yet I'm the hands N the
street Committee. and we trust viii re-
ceive very careful attention before 1t is
acted upOn

TuE TIMES ON THE FENCE.

How childish it is for the Times to pub
lish. as it did yesterday, long editorial
article explanatory OF its fiat money
paragraph. mot on the Dispatch's ac-
count, but because some well-meaning
but careless people have read it with the
D!spatch's comments, and have been mis-
led by them"
IL the Times does not know that the
paragraph in question is one Of the UNI
soundest ever published in a Virginia
paper then II knows nothing about the
subject upon which it undertakes TO en-
tighten the people.
If the Times had said the paragraph in
question was carelessly written and failed
to express the meaning of the writer. and
had asked that II bo withdrawn from
this controversy (Which the Times pro-
voked) we should have applauded its can
dor and dropped the subject. But the
Times does no such thing; on the CON
trary. 1t declares that the paragraph
states proposition which IS perfectly
sound and perfectly well known to every
person who has the first qualification ne
cessary for entering into the discussions
OF the day"
SO the Times roiterates that
III the government stamps thing
as having a certain value, when IL does
not really possess that value. but. II the
government nevertheless. maintains that
It Will receive the thing as of that value
I'm the payment Of all dues to H. then the
thing win pass current as the STANDARD
VALUE so long az the Government Il
willing and able TO receive II as Uhat
value" GAPS. Ours)
Now we ask the intelligent people Of
Virginia 10 read that paragraph and say
whether any Greenbacker, PopuHst. or
free-cOinage man has ever gone farther
than the Times goes in claiming power
for the Governments stamp.
That the Times cannot see the position
It has placed itself In does not alter the
fact that it is In that position. Ana so
II ought 10 be very careful how Il con-
tennis free-silyer coinage or twits Others
with Inconsistency.
The Times may search the Dlspatch's
files for the pas, ten years and nowhere
We believe. wiz II find any such dau-
gerous DOCTRINE taught as that which the
'o'"es long ago proclaimed ana now de-

If Is remarkable how few persons have
been hanged in Richmond within the
jurisdiction Of the Musings Court during
the past quarter Of century We can
think Of none excepting Tommie Cluye-
