We have repeatedly referred in these
columns Of the need in the South Of
schools Of technology which shall educate
young men and young women for the
practical affairs Of life. We have urged
that it is the greatest mistake in the
world TO educate for the professions a
boy who is a born mechanic and whose
tastes and talents run in that direction
we have urged that the great need OF the
South is a larger number Of skilled me-
chancs who shall be qualified TO take
charge OF industrial works and conduct
them inteligenty. We have commended
all such institutions now in existence in
Virginia and have expressed the hope that
their number and efficiency would be
steadily increased.
II is most gratifying 10 us, therefore,
to see that movement is on foot in this
city TO endow mechanics institute and
school of technology to the memory OF the
late Major Lewis Ginter. We can con-
ceive Of no more appropriate testmo-
NAL to the memory os the lamented citi-
zen than an institution Of this character.
1t seems TO us TO be entirely in the fit
ness Of things. and we believe that with
all his modesty it would have been most
gratifying to Major Ginter in his life time
to know that the regard Of his fellow
citizens and their desire to perpetuate
his memory would find expression in
movement Of this character.
Major Ginter was not only a philan-
thropist. but a thoroughly practical man.
lie loved to Go good and he loved to ex-
pend his money in such a way as to ac-
conplish the greatest amount OF good
for tie people at large Of Richmond. lie
loved books, he loved art, and he had the
highest regard for professional men. But
he was a man of affairs, and he knew the
value I'm any community Of skilled me-
chanlcs.
To establish, therefore, an institution IN
this community for the education Of me-
chanics would be not only an appropriate
monument to him. but would be in keep
ing with his public spirit and in further
anco Of the great work that he had be-
gun.
The Times believes that this happy sug-
gestion VIII receive not only the APP
proval but the earnest and cordial sup
port Of the people Of this city.

THE OUTLOOK FOR WHEAT.

The Baltimore Sun, in commenting on
the article Of Mr.. c. Wood Davis with
reference TO the outlook for wheat. which

point that although. as Mr.. Davis claims.

price Of wheat shall keep up to the high
figures recently attained the wheat acre

an additional field which may be seeded
when prices are high and left for hay or
planted in corn when prices are low
There is scarcely a farm anywhere that
cannot be made more productive by bet
ter cultivation. There is scarcely a farm
in any thriving community Of the East
which does not produce far more 10 the
acre than It produced ten or twenty
years ago. This, says the sun, is how
the supply OF wheat may be increased.
We rather think the Sun is right. We

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. by EVASION.

The Gazette some days ago said: THE
Richmond Times says It must not be
supposed that it was one of the thou
sands of the white people of Virginia who
az the last Presidential election thought
the Republican party had abandoned its
EFFORT to rule the South by the negro
vote"
lew days afterwards The Times
said:
"rhe Times has not made the statement
attributed TO it by the Alexandria Ca
zctte and the Gazette cannot make good
its assertion"
AS the Gazette does not keep a file OF
The Times IL could not recall that pa
per's exact words, but yesterday The
Times reprinted the statement the Ga
zotte had attributed 10 1t, which Is as fol-
lows:
There were thousands OF white people
IN Virginia and In all other parts of the
South who thought that the Republican
party OF tho nation had abandoned it's
old time effort to rule The Southern States
by the negro vote and who were pretty
nearly ready 90 break with the Demo-
cratic party and openly join the Republic
can party. IT must not be supposed that
The Times was one Of these"
So it appears that The Times did make
the particular statement attributed to ii
by the Gazette, and, what's more. The
Times supplies the proof that it did, as
is demonstrated and also sufficient

This sort of misrepresentation by sup

worthy OF the Gazette and has amazed

though It knew fun wei that the election

tho South.

THE FUTURE DE sILYER.

lN-GONeinOr BOlcSs OF iowa, VINO was
a prominent candidates for the Presiden-
tial nomination before the Chicago con-
vontion, has been catching II all round
for saying that In his opinion the free
coinage Of silver ut the ratio Of l6 TO Il
IS a dead issue. Mr. Boieg recently wrote
letter TO The Oes Moines Leader sus-
costing that ;he Window plan OF making
the commercial value Of bullion, gold and
silver, the basis Of circulation, and add
co.
IL IS said 10 plan Of that character
would be in accordance with the Chicago
platform. That is true but the Chicago
platform has had its day I'm court be-
fore the tribunal Of last resort. Must
Democrats, 10 be loyal. adhere to 1t for
ever? The objection Is at variance with
the whole theory of our form Of govern

settla nothing. majcr1ucs would cease
20 rule and when a political issue is once
joined the warfare over IL would 80 on
untsl one or the other Of the parties. TO 10
was totally annihilated.
In reply to what Mr. Boios has said
members Of the national committee have
entered their protest, insisting that the
silver question is still an issue and Will
continue TO be during the national cam
paign Of 1900.
The committeeman may insist all they
please, but men who think for them
selves will not tie themselves to an issue
that they believe has been defeated TO
death, simply because the last platform
Of the party declared for It.
The platform Of 1896 is a thing Of the
past and as we have already pointed out
the Roanoke Convention repudiated one
Of its principal planks and substituted
for it q resolution in favor of State banks
Of issue which the Chicago Convention
lemphatcary refused to adopt at the
earnest solicitation Of friends Of that
measure. ~
In New York an effort was made TO re-
affirm the Chicago platform, but the
regular Democracy ignored the whole
business.
IN Alabama an effort has been made to
have the convention of that State reaf-
firm the Chicago platform. but with few
exceptions the press of that State is Wig
orously opposing such q course.
We have no sort Of doubt that many
other advocates Of free silver think as
Mr.. Boies does. the only difference be-
tween them and him being that he has
taken the advanced position and has ex-
pressed himself while the others are
awaiting developments.
1t may be, indeed, that free silver will
b an issue in 1900, but we do not believe
that it will be an issue Of the Democratic
party. We are rather disposed to take
view Of Hon. John w. Caldwell, Of
kentucky, another free silver man with
advanced views, who believes that free
silver will be abandoned entirely and that
the extreme advocates Of that measure
viii 50 on to Populism and join hands
with the Populists in making a campaign
In favor Of fat money and government
control of railroads.
As for the Democrats, that is to say the
true Democrats, we have an abiding faith
that they will all come together before
the year 1900 upon a platform of sound
money and sound Democratic principles,
abandoning and repudiating all the Pop
ullstic tonets Of the Chicago platform.
