organizations at the North with their
hundreds OF millions Of apital. We know
that there arc Influences at work in this
community against the establishment OF
a home company. But for all that we be-
lleve that an old line Virginia company
with branches in various sections Of the
State VIII do "a good business from the
start and will grow from year TO year
until It becomes a great Southern institu-
ton.
The Southern people are learning more
and more 60 depend upon themselves and
TO patroni2e home enterprises. II the
Virginia company win start out right, and
start out with the right sort OF men.
men whose names carry confidence with
Thorn ia any branch OF business in which
they enlist. the enterprise win succeed.
Moreover. we believe that The time IS
most auspicious for launching this in.
surance enterprise. 1t IS getting TO be
fashionable TO start new enterprises IN
Richmond. The people have caught tho
Infection and every new enterprise start
ing will help the rest and the rest will
help it. We could ask no greater thing
for Richmond than that It become a great
Insurance centre.

General NJ. G.. Butler, late United States
senator from South Carolina, was in New
York two days ego and in an interview
with "a reporter Of the New York World
said:
u agree with Nj. German IN the opin-
ION that the It, 20 I question should not be
made It's chief issue by the Democratic
party next year.
The people Of his country have a way
Of submitting and determining national
questlons-that IS. by fairly presenting
them I'm a Presidential canvass and then
taking a vote on them. That process has
been complied with in the matter Of silver.
ana the 1G 20 ] advocates were defeated.
To my mind that is a determination or
the question
This SIS a most important statement as
coming from a well-known party man
who has always been In favor OF the free
coinage Of silver az 16 90 ! and who stood
On with the party organization during the
campaign of 1895.
Several lays ago a New England
prcschcd was ta,red and feathered and
despltscuny used by a mob because he
had preached q doctrine which the mob
dId not like. More recently a coat OF tar
and feathers was administered by % mon
40 Hanover. n. IT,, 10 Frank Yatter. tem-
porary sheriff Of the adjacent town OF
Havcrhil. ON Monday last at Bridge
vile. Del. "a mob attempted Go lynch
Charles Hatfield (colored) for committing
q namoless assault upon q respectable
white woman OF that town. Three times
the moose was put on the Negroes neck,
but each time # was removed by %
plucky officer and the Negroes neck was
saved. We recorded the other day % SINH
Oar attempt I'm another Connecticut town.
AN of which goes 10 show that human nae
turo is much the same the world over, and
as the Brooklyn Eagle was frank enough
90 say ot the time. under similar provoca-
ton. there would be quite as much lynch
ing at the North as there IS at thc South.
The New York Sun IS in high feather
over the statement recently given out by
Lleutonan Commander Hodgson concern
ing the alleged colloQuv with Admiral
Schlev during the fight OF Santiago.
Hodrson first reported this matter TO- the
sun. then wrote Schley a letter declaring
that no such colloQuy ever occurred ana
now comes ont and says the substance ot
the SUMS report was true. The sun has
made out a case. but after his many con-
Trajectory statements the Suns witness
will hardly be believed by the general
public.

Tho Chesapeake Waterman, q good
Democratic newspaper. propounds this
question: "Can the Democratic cohorts
win clad I'm coats OF silver mail alonc?"
Tho Waterman says tina its dearest wish
is to see tho flag OF Democracy once
more float over thc dome Of tho nations
capitol. but 80 IS firmly OF tho opinion
that "this wish viii never be realized so
long as amy effort is sustained on the
part OF the party leaders TO rc-enact and
rcamrm tho platform of 1896 It be-
uevos that those Democrats who from
conviction declined TO follow the flag of
Bryan and free silver I'm 1896 viii take
a similar stand fin 1900. and that unless
Democrats can be reunited on some come
mon ground it IS absolutely impossible
for the party 10 win.
Tho silver leaders ara forever Boosting
about wha. "a big vote they pollel ia
1896. but they seem altogether 20 overlook
tho fact that they did not poll enough
votes TO WIZ. They were q million snort,
and yet although conditions have Won
derfully changed since that time; al
though. instead OF "a most terrible de-
preston, we have prosperity everywhere;
although instead OF a scarcity of money
we have an increase Of the currency
Of nearly 100000 for every working
day since the campaign Of 1896 closedi
although tho great army Of the unem-
ployed who. in 1896. were clamoring for
amy sort Of change arc now employed.
in spite of an this The silver leaders say
that with the same platform I'm 1900 they
win be able 10 win where they failed in
1853.
We do not understand that sort of logic.
Many OF the Populists who voted with
the Democrats in 1896 have declared that
they viii vote otherwise in 1900. and it IS
wen known that the free silver Repubu-
can contingent has dwindled away TO
n|othingnoss. The only hope that the
Democratic party has of winning I'm 1900
SIS upon some such platform as that of
1s1. upon which an lthe Democratic
forces may Doe rallied. ~ the party
should not win ON that platform it would
certainly play for O. very strong position.
whereas IF the party Should go down 90
defeat with free silver as fits battle-cry.
Sc must inevitably go to pieces. We are
sincere in the belief that the very cxist-
ence of the organization depends upon
the course which the party shall take
in tho next presidential campaign.

WHEELING. W.. VA, June IA re-
markable injunction was petitioned for
IN the Federal Court yesterday by C.. r..
Edwards. q ST. Mary's restaurateur. He
asked that William Gattrill. a policeman
OF the town: Alonzo b.. Core, sheriff. and
Gordon Bits and others be restrained
from interfering with two negroes. The
bill asserts that the sheriff organized the
mob which recently attempted 10 drive
the negroes from the town. an unwritten
law having been In force since the slavery
days that no negroes should reside in the
county. Edwards asks for $4,000 damages
against the defendants, alleging that his
business was ruined by the demonstra-
lions against the negroes.
