THE BoxD BUSINESS.

We lind many persons who arc other
wise level-headed on the Main-strect de-
pot franchises who insist that a bond
should be required OF each OF the rail-
road companies: but when asked ''wEy'
they seldom give a sound reason.
What will the city lose II the companies
never 20 to work under the franchises
Not q cent. On the other Ean1. the COM
panies will find themselves burjened with
a great deal of not very desirable rea,
estate which they have purchased at high
prices.
But suppose they do not comply with
their obligations to tn, city Il they pro-
coed to work? In that case il Is certain
that they have enough property in this
State TO satisfy any claim for damages
that we may have against them. can
there be any doubt about this? Not the
slightest. SO far as we know nobody
questions it.
But IL is asked, Why 10 the companies
object to giving bonds? The answer 10
that is. that The suggestion OF bonds In
these cases Is an expression or distrust'
and II adopted would be n precedent which
might be followed in every other commu-
nifty where franchises were asked. III
a bond is demanded Of the Caroline road
at Richmond. where the president OF the
company lives. why SHOULD 1t not be de-
manded by Henrico. Manchester. Chester
field, Petersburg. Dinwlddie, etc. If 1t Is
demanded in Virginia, why should Ii not
be demanded i'm every other State where
the Carolina road may wish 10 extend
its lines? And what is true of the Caro-
lima road is true Of the Chesapeake and
Ohio road, for from line To time it has
to ask depot and tcrmilal franchises at
many places along its extended line.
In our opinion, Richmond will make ten
times more out Of these companies by
treating them trustfully than by treating
them distrustfully. II they are truly well
ome here let's give them welcome which
can't be misunderstood.

"DEWEY ARCHIPELAGO"

| Tho Boston Post suggests, as tribute
| TO Admiral Dewey, that the archipelago
In which he has figured so glorionsly
should bear his honored name. Indeed
our contemporary enthusiastically recon-
mends this change, and asserts that II
has been most favorably commented upon
| by many prominent men. The editor adj
duces several arguments In support OF
his proposition. He thinks Dewey de-
serves lasting public recognition, and
moreover. ne believes his fame could not
be better perpetuated than by this
scheme. Furthermore. he sees no reason
why the United States, If 1t holds these
islands, should preserve the name bestow-
cd upon them in flattery of Spanish
king. Philip H., for whom the archi-
pelago was named, never saw the Islands.
nor was he instrumental in discovering
them. The Portuguese, under Magellan,
found them in 1921, but forty years later
Spain wrested them from the former ma
ton.
While the proposition advocated by the
Post is not without sentimental features
which must appeal to all Americans, we
cannot see that the scheme would either
be justifable or practicable. We might,
with equal propriety--or absurdity-essay
to change the name of Alaska or Louis
lana, While Philip the Second may find
some undeserved glory in having his
name perpetuated among heterogeneous
mass of humanity, from whom he de-
serves no recognition, 1t is too late to
remedy the evil We would hardly care
to have the European Powers decree that
the term America should no longer APP
ply to this land, although Columbus is
conceded to have enjoyed but scanty
need of praise in comparison with Amer
icus Vespucius.
Admiral Dewey Is not the man to en-
dorse such methods, nor do we imagine
for q moment that he will countenance
this proposition. If he cares to have his
name immortalized he knows full well
that posterity can bestOw it upon great
,ities to be built hereafter. upon hundreds
IF babies yet unborn, and possibly upon
several brands of tobacco and merchan-
lise. He is not liable to be forgotten
;oon. nor will they fail to remember him

THE END EAR OEE.

The people OF the United States might
as well face squarely the cold. hard fact
that practically our war in the Philip
pines is no nearer it's end than when we
bought II. Every time we have broken
the back Of the rebellion il has mended
automatically. Whenever we have cap
tured and destroyed a rebel capital, an
other one has sprung up. At their con-
ference, Mr.. McKinley's commissioners
and the rebel representatives came out of
the same hole they went in, and fighting
goes steadily on. And last, but not least,
there is another call from Manila for
more troops. Our forces are experiencing
just what those familiar with the methods
OF warfare of Cuban and Filipino insur
gents predicted they would experience.
The task of our soldiers has been, and
continues to be, one of sisyphism. AS soon
as they leave an area of territory they
have cleared. armed "rebels" spring up in
1t as If some modern Cadmus had sown
st with serpents' teeth. but, unfortunate
~ for us. these "rebels" do not fall to
Staying one another Instead, they harass
our troops with their guerilla tactics,
and keep our army divided and on the
move until the men are utterly broken

policy of benevolent assimilation" has
been to our new wards" the strewing Of
their fields with Filipino corpses and the
multiplication of village graveyards, and

daily. The barrenness of our operations
TO date the present situation, and the
temper of the Filipinos would seem to
prove conclusively that the estimate of
one Of our generals serving against
Aguinaldo that IT would take 100 600 men
10 pacify the islands was a modest one.
Indeed the indications are that it will
take more than that number to pacify
Abe Island of Luzon alone. And when we
come TO calculate the probable percentage
OF loss by DEATH wounds. and disease that
will occur during paclfication, it would
appear clear that before our supremacy
SIS established upon the other islands the
figures Of the general referred to will
have TO be materially enlarged.
OF course, as we have frequently said,
now that Mr.. Mckinley has gotten us into
the trouble, American prestige must be
sustained. But we repeat that the Amer
3can people might as well face the cold,
hard fact that the end is far distant.
Srhey might as well settle down to the
conviction that our expenditure in blood
and money in the cause of benevolent
assimilation has just commenced. And
In duty 10 themselves they should pre-
pare TO punish those responsible for the
cost, and to prevent their placing us per-
manently IN the slough of imperialism

"NO QUESTIONS ASKED,

OF the $1,000 or 5000 of rewards offered

of such a reward is seriously doubted.
Many persons think that to set such a
precedent would be to put child-steafers
to work by the score.
1t is argued that in the public interest
there ought to be no compromise with
the criminals; but we may be sure that
that view does not obtain with Mr.. and
Mrs. Clark, the father and mother OF the
stolen infant, and in this matter 1t may
be presumed that the Journal represents
them. 1t cannot be expected that they
should be disinterested counsellors in a
matter which so deeply affects them; yet
il the scOundrels return the baby and re-
ceive 5000 and go scot free, il should
surprise no one if they continued in a

1t would be the most natural thing in
the world for the ,Clarks to be willing to
do almost anything to get their child
back. Many great rogues have been let
off easily by surrenderng their plumber.

that IL is money rather than sympathy

natural affection, and though a few GEN.
serious persons might condemn them, the
general public would approve their course.

the present system of electing senator's.
The last senatorial fight in the West
Virginia Legislature was not only mark
ed by scandal and turmoil, but al one
time there seemed danger that il would
also be marked by a repetition of the
scenes that characterized some OF the
southern legislatures during Reconstruc-

influence in the election. And, be 1t not

Under the caption, "a Parallel" the
Allegheny Sentinel says:
THE war we are carrying on against
our rebels in the Philippines resembles
closely the devastating war Spain was
carrying on in Cuba when we interfered.
Spain was blamed for killing Cuban pa
triots, arresiing industry and commerce,
devastating the country. and making slow
progress In the Philippines we have
killed far more of the natives than Spain
ever killed in Cuba, and as some of our
soldiers report that no quarter is given
to the Filipinos, we cannot claim much
superiority to Spain in the point OF bar
barity. We have destroyed innumerable
towns, destroyed crops, and made life
difficult for the surviving Filipino nom
combatants."
That's about the size of 1t.
