A NORTHERN NECK R. r.

In an interesting article describing
the efforts made to secure "a railroad
through the Northern Neck The editor
of the Virginia Citizen. Mr.. ". Med.
Lee, of Irvington. thinks that the
chances of securing such a road are
small. He believes it viii bee almost
impossible Co present the matter ia
a light which Will attract ont side
capitalists, and is afraid that petty
politicians and pessimists make it
doubtful whether local capital could
be secured for the enterprise. The
proposed deep water outlet at Glou-
cester Point, which the GOulds Sc
lected, is enough to discourage out
siders from constructing the North
ern Neck road, says the Citizen. but
such a road would, in its opinion.
pay well. 1t seems under the circum-
stances a great pity that conditions
are such in the Neck as TO preclude
the building of the road by local cap
ital, and we cannot understand why
there should be in any one OF the five
counties men anxious to kill projects
fraught with SO much good to their
section. The best plan is to follow
the one adopted here and keep ham
rlering along the line OF progress IN
til for very shame the men who would
stand In its path retire. We trust
that the prospects are not so bad as
pictured by Mr.. Lee, and We shall
continue to hope to see in the near
future a railroad connecting Freder-
icksburg with the prosperous coun-
ties of the Neck.

In the Richmond Times-Dispatch
'ot Sunday there appears an article
on the Torrens system OF land regis
tration which includes interviews
W tn well known lawyers and business
men all over the State. All of them
with one accord join in the general
demand for the adoption of this sys-
tenn by the Legislature, and we be-
-lieve that bills to this effect have
been introduced in both the House
and Senate. The Torrens system is
now giving perfect satisfaction in
Australia and in States OF the United
States, and we believe that Virginia
landowners would welcome its in
, auguration in this Commonwealth.

UNTIL THEY LEARN.

The Wisconsin legislature in try
ing to take hand in the settlement
OF the race question in the South
may be actuated by good motives.
but it would seem Just as well. for
the good it will do. that a man un-
acquainted with the Greek language
should take part in Greek debate.
The Wisconsin legislature knows
nothing of the race question and. per
haps, being composed of Northern
men, is somewhat preiudiced against
the South in its view OF the matter
We of the South, however, care not
to enter into a discussion of the Ques
ton with our friends from Wisconsin
or FOR that matter of any Northern
or Western State. since the advan-
tage would be altogether ON our side
and we feel 10th 10 take this unfair
chance TO display the ignorance OF
our cOuntrymen. \ discussion of
this race question would only go 20
show the deplorable lack OF know
ledge possessed 10y our friends from
the Badger State, and We would fain
not be SO discourteous co our guests

The Virginia Legislature. which
was called IN session for special
purpose, which special purpose has.
however, given place TO a variety of
matters, might while considering
such add the consideration of a plan
TO furnish the newspapers OF the
State with copies Of the more impor-
tant bills presented in the two bodies
As 1t Is now the people depend abso-
lutely on the papers for information
as TO what is transporting at Rich
mond, and often times the contents
and intents OF bills and measures are
unknown TO the newspapers because
OF lack OF necessary data. True
this can be generally secured by ap-
pllcation to a Senator or Delegate.
but sometimes after long delay. and
In the meantime the bill In question
may have become a law. We feel
quite sure that by this means the
newspapers would be much more
able to advise the people intelligent
ly, and even to prevent the passage
OF unwise legislation by calling pub
lie attention as well a. legislative at
tention to such. At least we can
assure our representatives that liter
allure from Richmond will not be-
classed with the much abused Con.
