THE BATTLE ABBEY.

The New Orleans and Nashville papers
complain that Richmond has been chosen
as the site for the proposed Confederate
Battle Abbey so-called.
We do not know that we clearly under
stand their supposed grievance; but it
seems they hold that the decision in
question was reached at the Atlanta re-
union without due notice TO all con-
cerned that the subject was then to be
disposed OF.
II is argued. too. that it was wrong
for the trustees. or the Grand Camp. to
select site until 500 900 had been raised
10 cover Mr.. Rouss's proposed gift Of
10000. II Is also contended that Rich
mond does not deserve the award in her
favor. because Virginia has raised but a
trifing sum in aid of the projected en-
terprise.
No mention is made by them of the
important fact that Richmond has ex-
pended more money in establishing and
equipplng the jefferson Davis Museum
and in preserving Confederate mementoes
than any three or four other cities
OF the country. II our subscriptions to
the Rouss enterprise have been small,
It was because when the call for funds
was made We had exhausted our re-
sources In establishing the Davis
Museum property that cost about
$4,000. not including any of the articles
that are on exhibition there.
The propriety OF taking action at At
lanta was fully and openly discussed.
How any one could have been surprised,
we can't understand. The suggestion
that snap judgment was taken is not
only not justified by the facts. but is an
aspersion upon the character and motives
OF the trustees and of the Grand Camp
Itself.
While the gentlemen who represented
Richmond in this matter at the Atlanta
meeting are now absent from the city,
and We cannot consult them, We know
that they. and our entire community. in
fact. would scorn TO profit by any action
chat was held 10 be improper by any
considerable portion Of the southern pub
lie. II the New Orleans and Nashville
people think there was anything unfair
in the award. let them formulate COM
plant. Let them show wherein they. or
others. have been wronged.
Richmond does not want the Battle
Abbey unless the people OF the South
wish her TO have IT, OF course, in
matter Of this kind we could not expect
entire unanimity. but We must. and do,
expect unanimity enough to make our
work In raising money something other
than burden.
We repeat. that in this matter the Dis
patch does not assume 10 speak for any
set or Organization OF men; but We
know Richmond people well enough 10
say they do not wish the Battle Abbey
TO be located here unless. practically
speaking. that be the unanimous wish
OF the southern people.
Our Nashville and New Orleans friends
may put our declaration 10 the test when
ever they wish. and they will find that
our city's position is just as We have
stated.

LIFE FOR LIFE.

What is said to have amounted to a
formal tender of Platt's support for the
nomination for Governor of New York.
was made to Teddy" Roosevelt Fri
day. when Congressman Quigg. Platt's
personal representative. went to Mon
tauk Point and held conference with
the Rough Riding Colonel on the sub
ject OF the nomination. 1t has been
believed that Roosevelt was quite will
ing to be nominated II the leaders OF the
Republican organization were willing 10
nominate him, and Quigg's visit to Mon
tauk is regarded as a pretty fair demon
stration Of the willingness Of those leaders
to place Roosevelt at the head Of their
ticket. So Roosevelt. we suppose. Is
very likely to be the Republican nominee
for the governorship OF New York.

DINGLEY AND ANNEXATION.

Mr.. Dingley vaults into the arena agar
TO do some more talking on the
subject OF imperialism.
Among other things. Mr.. Dingley an
nounces that the annexation sentiment
is growing in all parts OF the United
States. Our observation is, however. that
the annexation sentiment is growing like
revenue from the Dingley tariff act has
been grovying-that is. like a cows tail
grows.
II Mr.. Dingley's estimates of the growth
Of the annexation sentiment are not
more accurate than his estimates as to
the revenue producing power OF the tariff
measure that bears his name. truly, the
cause Of Imperialism is in a bad way.
However. with Mr.. Dingley. the wish
is father to the thought. He sees in
annexation the necessity for perpetual
ton of the war taxes-a condition that
would aid materially in hiding the mi
Quitous deficiencies of Dingleyism.

The Baltimore American yesterday cell
ebrated the l25th anniversary of it's birth,
and issued in honor of the occasion a
fac-simile of the first number OF the
paper. OF which it says:
zone time during the Revolutionary
war the price went up to 81 copy. The
number was about one twentieth the size
OF to-day's American. Now. a single
penny buys the largest paper in Balti-
more"
OF the American of to-day, our con-
temporary says:
1.-THE American has larger staff than
1t ever had; 1t has paid more for special
kilograms since the 1st Of January than
it ever did in any whole year before, and
its mechanical equipment has been quad
rupled within a dozen years"
1t is certainly a good paper-a great
paper-but how much better 1t would be
II 1t would abjure its Republican politics.

RooseveIt and Jackson.

Cincinnati overwhelmingly
A Virginia paper calls Roosevelt the
Stonewall Jaskson of the late war. The
comparison is inapt. at least as far
as the religious side or the generals
are concerned. and so far off in other
particulars, for Jackson was a great
general, while Roosevelt is simply a
dashing leader. The two men are as
different as the day and the night.

written for the Dispatch.)
Time is but little scroll.
Which short line doth unroll;
Foolish mortals often say
1t too swiftly goes away;
But when IL has ceased 10 roll,
Freedom then is given the soul.
Time is only longitude
Crossing lines Of latitude;
Making for us ten times seven.
Very near from earth to Heaven;
Giving TO a multitude
Freedom from earth's servitude.
Time is but mans measurement
OF this worlds imprisonment,
Years are notches in the line
or the measure he calls time;
Marks on human implement,
Ending at monument.
Time was once kept by glass.
Through which grains Of sand did pass
Man now makes IL accurate reel
Off from brass and wheels OF steel;
But whate'er the measure be,
Time stops at eternity.
