UNDERSTANDING OUTRAGE.

How long. oh, how lorg, are the peo-
pie of Richmond TO suffer the nuisance
resulting from the present system OF
sweeping the streets?
The Dispatch has frequently urged that
all street-sweeping should be done be-
tween midnight and daybreak, and that
the sweepings should be carted away be-
fore the people are astir in The morning.
There is no reason that we can see why
this policy should not be pursued, espe-
cially at this season Of the year. But If
those in charge of the matter are deter
mined to run in the old rut and ignore the
very reasonable public demand for night
work. let them, at least, be SO kind and
condescending as TO sprinkle the streets
before beginning the work Of cleaning
AS 10 Broad street, the way in which the
sweeping is managed now is a positive
outrage. The authorities could not have
hit upon better plan than the existing
one for injuring tho stocks OF the Broad
street merchants and the dresses OF the
ladies engaged in early marketing and
shopping. Nor could they have hit upon
better plan for disseminating such dis
ease germs as may abide In the dust
piles.
In the name OF the ladies', in the name
Of the Broad-street merchants, ard in the
name Of common sense. we call for re-
form In this matter. at least to the ex-
tent of treating the streets to u thorough
bath before the sweeping Is started.
We may be mistaken, but really It
strikes US that es regards this question,
the people have some rights that the
powers behind the street-sweeping ma
chinery-the Board Of Marlborough to
respect. and ought 10 be made 10 respect.

THE RIGHT OF PETITION.

What have the self-constituted Rich
mond conferrees to do with the action
of cities and counties or how they nom-
nate their legislative candidates? The
Democrats of each city and county are
fully competent to manage their own
local affairs as they choose. without die
tation from a conference, in which such
city or county may not have a represen-
tative.-The Danville Register.
"Dictation," indeed!
1t will be found that the May meeting
will have better sense than to attempt
anything Of that sort. directly or indi-
rectly. But It may be in its power to
show the majority Of Democrats of each
city and county that the people may be
safely trusted to nominate their senator's.
Then, such Democrats of each county and
city as may concur in that view. may
petition their county or city committee
to order a Democratic primary for legis-
lative elections. Would there be any
"dictation" I'm that?
Who would deny us the right Of petit
ton?

a LITTLE MIXED.
The North Carolina Agricultural
Board and Pcnitcntiary Matters.

RALEIGH. N. c., April 27.-(Special) -
The Democratic Board of Agriculture met
this afternoon, and the Fusionists took
another tack which made their locking
out scene yesterday all the more farcical.
They opened the barred room. invited the
Democrats in, and the latter met. One
Fuslonist sat with them. Warrants were
drawn to pay both boards the Democrats
having raised the embargo on the State
Treasurer upon the Fusionist pledge that
the suit to try title should be put through
the courts Immediately. The case came
up this afternoon, and the Fusionists adj
mitted all the Democratic allegations of
facts in their complaint J. L. Ramsay
FusionisD was reinstated as secretary
until June 18th.
The Penitentary Board met to-day, and
matters took turn unexpected by the
Democrats, for all the FusiOnists save
one. Claude Dockery, who was chairman
of their board, came in and participated
with the Democrats; so did w II. Day,
Governor Russells appointee as superin
tendent. A committee was appointed TO
consider and report on the purchase of
the Caledonia and Northampton farms,
near Weldon and on Roanoke river a
total of 1880 acres, for $4,000. The pur-
chase Will De maze Inc state mas LOT
years had options on both farms. 1t has
expended over $4,000 on them for i'm
provements. They are the finest farms
I'm North Carolina, and the penitentiary
can get $500 premium for its franchise.
An offer is made by a syndicate TO take
both farms and 600 convicts, paying 3d.
OCO annually therefor This will be con-
sidered tomorrow.
The Penitentiary Board is considering
the purchase from the private owners of
the satisfactory plant now in the prison.
The penitentiaIy now operates seven
farms. four OF them at a loss, and it Will
abandon these four merely paying the
rental.
Senator Butler states that he will later
on support the constitutional amendment
limiting negro suffrage in North Carolina,
and adds that he desires to get the negro
out Of politics.

Certain members of the Dewey Club, OF
Newark, n. j., protest against any CEN
sure Of Captain Coghlan, of the cruiser
Raleigh. In a letter to the New York
Herald they say, referring to the gallant
Captain:
'He gave to the people the information
which they so long desired, and which
the rascally NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of the
War and Navy departments tried 10 sup
press in order to cover their own mis-
deeds. The people are not going to sub
nit to the incompetents who starved our
soldiers and then attempted to cover their
shame under the cloak of ignorance"
There seems to be much truth mixed
up with the indignation expressed in the
communication.
