TWO POINTED QUESTIONS AN
SEVERED.

What is the use of making better
article than your competitor II you can
not get a better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in
the price the public will buy only the
better, so that while our profits may
be smaller on single sale they will
be much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
YOUR make is the best?
If both articles are brought proml-
nently before the public both are GER
tain to be tried and the public will
very quickly pass Judgment ON them
and use only the better one.
This explains the large sale on

DEWEY HEARD FROM.

The suspense regarding Dewey and his
squadron is over. The dashinS commo-
dore has been heard from officially by the
authorities at Washington, and the good
news of him first received is accentuated
I'm his report. His exploit was even more
glorious and his victory more complete
than we had thought. lie carried every
thing with the high hand Of the old-time
naval commander and swept everything
before him.
When he was shut out from the neutral
ports of the far East 1t became
an absolute necessity that he establish
a base of supplies in that quarter OF the
globe. and he stood not upon the order
OF his work. How thoroughly he realized
the necessity that confronted him is
told in the story Of the practical annihi-
lation of the Spanish fleet at Manila,
the destruction of the Notifications at
the mouth of the bay, and the taking
possession by him Of Cavite. And
the best of IL IS, that all this was accom-
plished without the loss of a single man
or material damage 10 any Of our ships.
The casualties in the squadron amounted
TO only eight men wounded, while the
loss of the enemy in killed and wounded
was frightful.
AS we understand the present situation,
Manila itself is at the mercy of Deweys
guns, but he cannot spare sufficient force
from his squadron to occupy it. Before
that can be accomplished with safety, he
must have re-enforcements, and these,
our government is preparing to rush 10
MIN from the Pacific Slope. They will
reach him long before a Spanish squad
ron could get to the Philippines TO worry
him, even had Spain a squadron she could
assign TO that task, and, indeed IL she
had such a squadron. she would. after
last Sundays experience. hardly nave the
temerity to send 1t against him.
We need, therefore, have no further
uneasiness about Dewey and his gallant
officers and men. They are in position
10 take care OF themselves and cope with
all possible conditions that may arise.
They can "hold the fort" until SO re-en-
forced as that they will be able to take
with safety formal possession of Manila.
III the mean time, we can only exut with
them over their magnificent victory and
the honor they have put upon their coun-
try, and listen hopefully for an echo
of their triumph from Simpsons guns.

SUBSCRIBERS COMPLAINTS.

The Dispatch frequently receives COM
plants from subscribers, who say the
mails often fail to bring them their pa
pers. and who are at loss to know the
reason why.
We have investigated a number Of these
complaints. and are satisfied the delays
in question are not due TO any fault in
this office; nor to any in the Richmond
post office; but TO the fact that country
postmasters or other employees of the
postal service take the papers to read
them, and sometimes forget to replace
them i'm the pouches
We are not unmindful Of the feelings
of man who is full of curiosity about
the progress of the war, and who has a
copy of the Dispatch within reach, but,
all the same, we must insist upon the
rights OF our subscribers, and we mean
to demand an official enquiry into the
cause of every such complaint that
reaches us hereafter.

VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS.

The Democrats OF Virginia would 90
well to guard against letting the war ex-
citement distract their attention TOO
much from their duty TO their party
They would do well. indeed, to keep
special watch on the Republicans.
As we know, the Republican State Exc
cutive Committee have issued an address
setting forth the purpose OF the party to
hold conventions in every congressional
district to nominate candidates for Con-
gress.
The address indicates that the Repub-
lican breach of last fall is entirely closed,
and the comments of the State Repubh-
can papers on the committees outsiving
leave no doubt that their party organiza-
ton in Virginia will be more compact
and thorough in the coming campaign
than II has been for several years. This
must be met by equally compact and
thorough organization on the part Of the
Democrats.
War. notwithstanding, IT may be ac-
cepted as assured that the Virginia Re-
publcans are going to work like beavers
I'm every congressional district from now
until the day of election. Even where
they know that an attempt TO elect their
man will be futile, they will be unremit-
ting in their efforts TO reduce the Demo-
cratic majorities, hoping thereby. should
their party have a majority in tho next
Congress, to secure seats through such
trait cd
Young and Mr. Epes-as were perpetrated
upon the people of the Second and Fourth
districts of Virginia.
While Virginia is doing her part In pre-
pairing to fight the nations Spanish foes
without, let her not relax her prepara-
tons for fighting her own political foes
within. Let not her enthusiasm In the
one cause conduce to her forgetting her
obligation in the other. Let not the bugle
call TO arms drown the Democratic party
call to keep up organization. Let us not
afford our political enemies an opportu-
nifty for turning TO their advantage our
hearty cooperation in defending the
country's prestige and honor. They would
not fail to seize, eagerly upon such an OPP
portunity and make the best Of It.
The fact that we are at war with for
eign nation will not change the spots of
the Republican party Of Virginia. 1t will
not change that party's methods. Re-
| publicanism in Virginia is the same to-
day that it was yesterday, and Will be
the same as long as it has existence that
| it was yesterday and is to-day. No con-
dtiony have arisen or ever will arise
! that will relieve the Democracy of tha
duty of bending every energy towards
crushing it out.

AN INVITATION TO TRAMPS.

We call attention TO a card from Mr..
Henry Lee Valentine, president of the
Young Mems Business Association, we
print this morning, explaining the failure
of the tramp and vagrant ordinance TO
pass the Council. it speaks for itself.
The principal argument advanced against
favorable action by the COuncil-that 1t
would involve expense to the city-we
regard as utterly untenable.
Even If the operation Of tramp or
dinance would pat the city TO some addi-
tonal expense, what is that compared
with the relief 1t would afford the wo-
men and children from the tramp reign
of terror? What is that compared with
the fact that putting the tramps to work
would better enable US to carry on our
organized charities and extend help to our
own deserving poor and unfortunate?
But experience goes TO show that the
passage and vigorous enforcement of a
tramp ordinance such as the one in ques-
ton would not entail expense upon
the city. At the meeting of the Council
at which the ordinance was defeated Mr..
the ordinance were passed it would keep
crowds OF Migrants away from the city.
How does this comport with experience
elsewhere? Take Fredericksburg, for in
stance. The Star. of that city. In com
menting on the complaints against the
tramp nuisance here, says;
"The professional tramps used to say
he =
place TO members of their profession be-
tween Jacksonville and Bangor. and, as a
consequence, they were frequent visitors
TO this city, frequently spending many
nights in the woods adjoining the city
and coming into the city 20 beg and steal
in the daytime. But this is all over
now, and the weary Wiliies' gave us a
wide berth, seldom leaving the freight
trains passing through the city,"
And why is this? Because, the Freder-
'icksburg Council passed tramp ordi-
nance, and the Mayor and police of that
place proceeded to enforce it vigorously.
In urging last Thursday morning, the
passage of the ordinance before our Coun-
ell, we said that we believed such ac-
ton would result in the words going
around in the tramp fraternity to give
Richmond a wide berth. The course OF
the Council in refusing TO pass the ordi-
nance was a grievous blunder, the con-
sequence Of which will be to make Rich
mond more than ever a Mecca for tramps.
The plain English of the whole matter
is that the Council, in the face of the
protest of 1000 voters. against the advice
OF the police authorities, despite the I'M
answerable logic of the Tramp Ordinance
Committee of the Young Mems Business
Association. and in defiance of the
charity plea of the City Mission. delibe-
rately invited the tramps TO take posses
sion of Richmond. It's a wonder that q
