Prince Oscar, Of Sweden. who re-
nounced all right of succession to the
throne In order that he might marry the
girl OF his choice. made his appearance
recently I'm the streets of Stockholm in
the character of a mission preacher in
connection with the Young Mems Chris
tian Association of that city. He was
accompanied by his wife, formerly Miss
Ebba Munck. who is also delivering a
series of addresses. At least 1000 persons
assembled TO hear the Princes first effort.
many OF them, no doubt moved by no
deeper feeling than curiosity, though he
was listened to with what seemed to be
genuine respect. The Prince is tall of
stature. and his features bear striking
resemblance to those of his father. He
speaks finently and simply. it is said
without being exactly eloquent.

II would be hard lines for our dis
tinguished baseball players to have to
divide newspaper space this summer with
our naval and military heroes. Engage
ments between the fleets OF the United
States and Spain, or of their armies
ashore-if we have war--will possibly en-
list as much public attention as the great
games of ball. And in the eyes of the
people 1t may be expected that the gene
raj or admiral of ours who wins a signal
victory over the enemy may become as
much Of hero as any OF the crack
catchers or batsmen who have lately
basked In the sunlight of the public's
smile.

TUESDAY. .....,. MARCH 10, 1898
OUR PRIMARY.

The Democratic primary election to be
held to-day holds out to every member
Of our party here an invitation and an
opportunity to assist in selecting nominees
for our municipal offices. The voting is
TO be under the Australian system. and
fhus each man will be enabled TO make
out his ticket free from solicitation or
surveillance.
Every one who goes to the polls to-day
should carry with him the resolution
to vote for the very best men offering as
candidates. Let the voter be moved by
a determined purpose to do his utmost
70 promote the interests of Richmond.
Let him act as If upon his vote alone
rested the responsibility of choosing the
entire official corps of our city. Let him
take pride in giving to the community
public servants whose worth cannot be
questioned. and who will honor Richmond
and the Democratic party both.
The activity of the candidates among
their friends foreshadows a great turn
out of voters. So much the better. The
larger the vote the surer we may be that
Jhe results Of the election will be accept
able TO the public. 1t will be a case
where we may trust that in the multi
dude OF counsel much wisdom will be
Exhibited. r'"f"
Go TO the primary. Let patriotism and
prudence guide your judgment in making
put your ticket. DO your best to serve
your ,city-and then be prepared to accept
results gracefully.

While Spain and the United
States were arranging for the ces-
sation of hostilities Admiral Dewey
was extending our territorial pos
sessions in the Pacific. On August
9th he demanded the surrender of
Manila and after a short lombard
ment the Spanish forces surrender
ed unconditionally. 1t is thought
that he has also captured several
Spanish gunboats and the smaller
islands of the Philippine archipel-
ago. Dewey is the right man to
have in the Pacific.

To show the trend of gold bug
opinion we give elsewhere in this
issue clipping from the philadel-
phia Times in reference to the de-
cadence of the Spanish milled dol
lar. The article is not a review of
the downfall of the dollar bat
simply an argument for the estab-
lishment of the gold standard in
our new colonial possessions. The
gold bug sees no good in our newly
acquired territory unless it can be
converted to his own use. In the
sight of the Times it would be
crime to allow silver to remain a
medium of exchange in Cuba,
Puerto Rico and the Philippines.
The fight over the new order Of
things will be on in congress this
winter and the silver men ought to
stand together to defeat any at
tempt of the single standard men
to further extend the limits of gold
bngism.

Director of the mint Leach esti-
mates the output of the Klondike
at 5,O00.000$ for the year 1898,
From reports of returning Klon-
dikers it would appear that Leach's
estimate is far too high. Men who
are reported to be in possession of
40,00O$ or 50,000$ when they re-
turn are often penniless. The
Klondike would be a good summer
resort, but its gold bearing gravel
will not invite another rush in that
direction next year.

The Supreme Court of the United
States has handed down decision
that in the light of recent territor-
ial acquisitions, is wide sweeping
one. Wong Kim Ark, native Of
California, visited China and on
his return to the United States
was denied admission under the ex-
clusion law. He appealed from
the decision of the lower court and
the Supreme court has just decided
that he is citizen of the United
States and as such can not be de-
MED the privilege which such citi-
zenship guarantees to every person
born under the stars and stripes.
In view of this decision every
child born in the island of Hawaii,
Cuba and Puerto Rico and possibly
the Philippines, will be citizens Of
the United States.

President Mckinley has met

The Oregon Short Line, which

let a contract for the exten ,ion Of
that road to the line of Nevada.
The roadbed is already completed

to be ready to receive the ties ard

jected northern road will eventu-
ally form a connection with the
