Much anxiety is felt throughout the
west over the hard outlook for range
cattle. The wet weather and severe
frost. 10 the fall left the grass without
much natriment in il, and consequently
cattle started into the winter weaker and
poorer than they usually do. The e1-
trcmely cold weather Of the winter has
still further reduced them in acsh and
strength and owners who are destitute of
feed stand good chance to lose an cx-
traordnary large percent Of their herds.
Most of the small cattlempn are abun-
dainty supplied with feed, and Of course
run but little risk Of losing.

THURSDAY. JUNE 8, 1899
THE HOARD AND THE DEPOT.

We take no stock in the suggestion
which has been thrown out that there is
likely TO be in the Board of Aldermen
strong opposition to the passage of the
ordinance granting the Chesapeake and
Ohio and the Richmond, Petersburg and
Carolina railways the franchises they
have petitioned for. Indeed we have
TOO much confidence in the civic pride and
public spirit of the body to entertain
a suggestion that there will be any op-
position at all TO the measure, worth
speaking of.
Apart from that view, however, there Is
no logical ground on which 10 base a
fight. Every objection that had been
urged against granting the franchises
has been disposed of. The case has been
fully argued pro and con, and those who
antagonized the great Improvement have
not been left leg TO stand on. More
over, the hearty endorsement by the peo-
pie Of the action of the lower branch
of the Council in passing the ordinance
amounts virtually TO a demand that the
Board do likewise. Therefore. whatever
opposition 10 the ordinance may develop
in the Board will be in the nature of
opposing the will of the vast majority
of the people. and partake of the charac-
ter of questioning the wisdom OF that
majority.
But, as we have said, we anticipate no
appreciable difficulty in getting the ordi-
nance through the Board. We believe
that the upper branch OF the Council
Will see, as did the lower branch. that,
while the railways have much TO gain
by the concession, Richmond has infinitely
more TO gain. We believe that the
Board will recognize, as the lower branch
and the public have recognized, that
further attempts to throw obstacles in
the way of the improvement would be
seriously detrimental TO the reputation
Richmond Is acquiring for enterprise and
push, and which is causing capital in
various parts Of the country to look
favoraby upon her as a field for invest
ment and the development of Industrial
plants. In short, we have faith in tue
good sense and the business prescience
OF the Board and its loyalty to Rich
mond's interests.

I giving estimates OF the deposits IN the
Lake Superior and several other impor-
tant ore regions.
10th the Journal and the Iron AGE seem
70 have ignored the Virginia ore
horizons. but none the less 1t Is o fact
that these should occupy prominent
place in any calculation made for the pur-
bose OF quieting the Statisrs alarm.
II matters not that the boom gave the
iron interest of Virginia black eye.
The truth remains that the ore deposits
of the State are enormous, IL not Virtu-
ally inexhaustible. and that many OF THESE
have barely been touched. Indeed some
OF the richest OF the horizons po'h az
respects quantity and quality OF the ore
have not yet been reached by railroads.
IL follows. therefore. that In the Dement'S
OF any great and permanent revival OF
the iron interest, Virginia will participate,
provided she develops her ore-mining ana
furnace Industries along conservative ana
business-like lines. This she will do II
she profits by the lesson of the boom
times. during which she pushed ahead
Of the necessities and demands of the
situation.
As for the threatened plg-lron famine
we count that a good sign. Scarcity OF
iron means high prices for iron. THIS
means not only big profits for the furnace
men, but IS sure indication OF an
Industrial awakening along may lines
and the consequent putting to work o.
thousands of the unemployed class.

KISSING A sCALAWAG,

Talking of Esterhazy: With what SELF

recah that he not long ago publicly can
Draced and kissed That interesting scala
wag as the Representative of the honor
of the French army? %
Wen. the Tribune ought TO know with
what sentiments the embracing and kiss
ing Of scalawag are recalled. No
paper in the country has had more ex-
perleuce in osculatory salutation of seal
awags, and in folding these reptiles TO
lis bosom.
For years after the civil war the
Tribune was lavish in bestowing hugs
and kisses of approval upon these repre-
sentatives of one branch of the grand
army of looters, corruptionists, and po-
liticai debauchers its party sustained in
the South at the point OF the bayonet
1t was even more generous. in its en-
bracing and kissing favors 10 the seal
awags than it was TO their partners in
iniquity and scoundrelism. the carpet
baggeis, seeing that it had the idea that
the former would, in the long run prove
mora useful than the latter in helping
the Sout6-haters to carry out their meta
rious purposs Of permanently hlnnilia:-
ing the South and Stacking it to the
Republican party.
Oh yes; the Tribune ought TO have no
difficulty in appreclating with what SEN
timents the embracing and kissing Of a
scalawag are recalled. IL was a rloter
and a reveller IN that business in the days
of the scalawag and carpet Dagger
satulnalia, and its kisses and embraces
did more. perhaps TO poison thu
