RIG RICHMOND.

Most readers Of the Dispatch know tha'
for ten years or more We have laporeu
I'm season ard out Of season for the en-
lareement OF Richmond's corporate
bounds. We have pleaded against our PEG
ple's allowing their city TO drop in rank III
the census reports. And we have argue"
that the question was not only one Oh
sentiment but Of business. We have cah-
Cd ,n the commercial travellers to testify
that if would help them in their work 10
De able 10 say. for instance. that the
census gives Richmond a populauoh oi
1o- one instead of what It does give US
Within a few weeks past we nave h"u
eeveral articles on this subject, and we
are glad 70 report a growing interest III
the question. The two chief business OF
eonizations Of Richmond are alert, ana
tbe city Council has had its attention
aroused.
This morning we publish letter from
e. A. Catlin, Esq, chairman OF the
Chamber of Commerce Committee on this
eubiect I'm which he presents views
worthy of the attention of public-spirited
citizens. We have found Mr.. Catlin an
intelligent, practical. and jealous worker
IN all public enterprises, and we expect
him "a do much to forward this under
taking.
Sooner or later success will crown the
efforts Of these who are urging this mea-
sure. Richmond will not always be
Indifferent TO the injury she suffers By
being made to fail, and fall In census
rank by reason Of the lead other cities
gain over her by annexing adjacent ter
ritory and population. Excepting one or
two dozen families, Richmond has gained
no population by annexation for thirty
years.
OF course, there are difficulties in the
way Of extending our territory. OF course,
there will be mora or less OF opposition,
but we must not be silenced by anything
Of that sort. If we have the WILL well
find the way. Richmond and Manchester
and their suburbs are destined to be
merged into one great city. AS to that
no doubt enters our mind. This union
may be postponed. but we do not believe
Il can be prevented. 1t is bound C.
come. Better. Therefore, that 1t should
come now. The longer we wait the more
obstacles there viii be 10 overcome. the
more problems 10 solve, the more rights
and privileges to reconcile and adjust

MIR. FLOODS BILL.

There is no question about the passage
CT tho bill looking to holding a cOnstitu-
tonal convention. Senator Floods bill
viii 90 through without trouble. and the
convention proposition will be made a
party issue by the Democrats-Extract
from Richmond Letter in the Index-Ap-
peal
The writer Of the foregoing paragraph
Is usually well informed, yet it may be
premature to say what the Legislature
viii DO on this subject.
The Legislature may pass Mr.. Floods
bill, or IT may recommend something like
Mr.. Patteson's Mississippi suffrage
amendment, or it may proceed upon the
lines suggested by Governor Tyler-that
is, appoint a committee, or commission.
to report amendments 10 the next Legis-
lature. But in any event, we hope and
trust that whatever action IS taken may
be endorsed and supported by the Demo-
cratic party, as party. 1t would be
well nigh, useless to submit to the people
any proposition which the Democratic
party Of Virginia is not prepared to stand
sponsor for.
In 1896 very widespread convention
sentiment showed itself in Virginia, yet
the leaders OF our party could not agree

sition was defeated at the polls.
In Alabama the Legislature went so

taken, and our party made nomination OF
many members. when the Legislature
was convened in extra session ana with
drew the call.
We are glad to find Mr.. Flood recog-
nizlng the necessity for party action II
the judgment Of the Legislature should
incline to calling a State constitutional
convention. And there would be a like
necessity in case either of the other two
plans was adopted.
