William W. Talley says: my daughter

and lame having to use brace for the
last ten years and the last fourteen months
has been helpless invalid and has had to
be carried about like an infant. This was

Doctor John Townsend and his treatment

Should Contribute Something.

The bill to improve the railway service
of Wilmington. by Senator John Pyle,
already gives promise Of big fight ahead
on the part Of the Wilmington City Rail,
way Company. None Of the proposed
regulations are hardship or at least they
should not DO II they should become law
and were enforced. The company has a
monopoly Of the streets of our city and
could well afford to comply with several of
the proposed changes that have been en-.
grated In the bill. The right to fix the
time that shall constitute days work at
l2 hours Is right and proper. No person
should be compelled to work more than
day, IL hours, to support himself
and family. The proposed reduction In
the fare. compelling the company to sell z
tickets for Is cents would be q great ac-
commodation to the working people and
would bring increased revenue to the com.
panys treasury. 1t is right and proper
that every street car should DO equipped
with fender. We would like to have
copy Of the bill and give Its purpoat to our
readers, We will wager q big apple that
the bill will havo the hardest kind Of Il
time before 1t becomes operative, as vii.
lard Salisbury and Preston Lea will fight
1t for all it Is worth. 1t has been a great
wonder to us that the company has not
before this been compelled to pay license
Of $50 for every street car run over Its
tracks, the same as street car companies
In other cities have to do. This ia the first
time that an attempt has been made to
compel the company to do anything since
II was granted its charter, which gave it
absolute control over every street in our
city. Other companies would be willing
to pay the city good revenue for the
privilege Of using the streets and com.
peting with the old company, There
should be nothing done by legislation that
would work unnecessary hardship to the
company or put them 10 unnecessary ex.
pense; but then they have valuable fran.
chise and should be willing to contribute
to the city treasury for their exclusive
privilege.

Chancellor Nicholson yesterday after.
noon heard additional argument In the in.
junction case Of the P W. e. b. Railroad
Company VS.. the Wilmington City Rail.
way Company. There was somewhat OF
a sensation during the afternoon because
OF the presentation Of plot, which showed
that tho railroad company owned the bed
Of the street near Third street bridge. The
property was left to the company In 1878.
Therefore II the Street and Sewer Depart
ment had granted the railway company
the franchise to lay tracks there 10 had ex.
rOeled Its authority.
On the Other hand MIR. Salisbury con.
tendodlthat the matter did not touch either
crossing Of the railroad and therefore had
nothing to do with the present case. The
company did not own the portion OF the
street where the railway wanted to cross.
Then nm affidavit from Superintendent
Hutchins claiming that the construction
of the crossing would not interfere with
travel and was perfectly safe, was read.
Andrew G. Gray followed Mr.. Salisbury
and spoke during the afternoon.

Painful diseases are bad enough, but

Passover Has Begun.

At shutdown yesterday commenced the
Feast of Passover, one Of the three great
Jewish festivals. 1t was originally IN.
stituted to commemorate the deliyerance
Of the Israeltes from their bondage In
Egypt and the sparing of the first born on
the night previous to their departure from
that land. The festival will continue
seven days but 1t is customary to observe
only the first and last days. During Its
continuance it is unlawful TO eat other
than unleavened bread, and for this reason
the ancient festival Is often referred to in
the Scriptures as the Feast Of Unleaven.
ed Bread"
With the exception of the abandonmeut
of sacrifices of the paschal lamb, the
festival Is observed in other ways much
as it was two thousand years ago in
Judea.
In the synagogues last night solemn
religious services were conducted. The
services were continued to-day. The
more progressive congregations accom-.
pany the services by elaborate musical
programs.

LAND VALUES.

The Rockbridge County News. which
we have always found TO be an intelli-
gent newspaper. In It's editorial discus
sion, contains the following paragraph
Farming lands are too low in price.
They are q good investment for capital
lists at higher prices than they now
bring. Lands 10 rent are in great de-
mand. The number OF renters is abun-
dant and rents are high, even compared
with the prices years ago. The sums
realized every year by its owners from
rent of good land justiies land bringing
a better price in the market than 1t now
does, and II is only a question OF very
short time when these better prices VIII
be realized. Now is the time to buy land
IL a man wants low-priced farm. They
will not remain at present figures very
long.
This is In the line Of several articles
which have appeared OF late In The
Times. We do not subscribe to the views
of the free silver people that values have
come down. because OF the so-called de-
monetization OF silver, but that values
are below the normal from some cause
is a fact that cannot be disputed.
All signs now. however. point to a rise
in values The rise naturally begins In
securities, which are traded in In the
money centres. but 1t will spread natural
ly and inevitably TO all classes of pro-
perty. We have the greatest country on
earth, and It Is impossible 70 hold 1t back.
With our immense resources, and with
the push and enterprise OF the American
people, prosperity must necessarily re-
turn, and as It returns values will be
enhanced.
We believe that a man can hardly make
q mistake now in purchasing desirable
real estate ia the cities and country dis
tricts of Virginia. and all such purchases
made at present prices must, In our
opinion, yield handsome profits in the
early future. This is our deliberate opin-
ion, first expressed more than a month
ago. and we have seen nothing since that
time to alter It. but. on the contrary. it
has been strengthened, IL not absolutely
confirmed by subsequent events.

THE WRONG sow's EAR.

The Westminster Gazette OF London.
a Journal OF great influence IN an article
a day or so back in which 1t discussed
the possibility OF Secretary Shermans
being forced out of the Cabinet and, in
the course of II, it says. that, II no Is, he
will make Ohio too hot for Senator
Hanna" 1t then adds:
1t is awful to contemplate the results
of Mr.. Hanna being done out OF his price
for making Mckinley President Some
innocents may object that II Sherman Is
too senile to hold Office he must be too
senile for the Senate, but as matter OF
fact, no one has yet estimated how In
competent a man must be before the
Senate is closed to him. In this 1t shares
the advantage of the House OF Lords.
We are rather sorry II Secretary Sher-
man Is to be superseded. as In his own
rough way he expresses a phase Of
American feeling which It is important
for us TO know.
The Gazette has got hold of the wrong
end of the story. 1t is not incompetency
that is alleged against the Senators that
our present system Of choosing Senators
sends to Washington Oh no. Old Ben
Butler used to say that whatever else
they charged him with, no one had ever
called him o fool And the Senators may
make the same remark to the Gazette.
What Is charged against the Senate Is
that our method OF choosing Senators en-
ables the other kind of fellow TO get In
his work, and that the Senate is the re-
suit of that sort OF work. That is what
we want corrected.
