WASHINGTON LETTER.

Democratic politicians here are
pleased with the result of the cleo
tions. While the party did not
succeed in defeating Senator Han
ma in Ohio, it had a splendid vic
tory in Maryland, where President
Roosevelt's attitude on the race
question formed the principal issue
and in New York City it prevent
ed the Republicans, under the
guise of Fusionists, from retaining
control of the city. McClellan's
majority of over $4,000 is sure to
bring the State to the Democrats
next fall, and Maryland's repudia-
ton of the Republican party, and
especially of President Roosevelt,
has caused the present Administra-
ton much alarm. In the Senate
German will have the prestige OF
having administered a severe de-
feat to the party in power, and In
the House Hearst will recall the
fact that his papers succeeded In
bringing the Democrats into line
in New York City. These men
will be the champions of the Dem
ocratic cause and one of them may
possibly lead the party in the
campaign next fall. Senator Cor
man will attack the negro policy
of the President and Representa-
tive Hearst will show the laboring
men how little they have to expect
from the Republican party. The
"open shop controversy is by no
means settled in the eyes of the la
Dor leaders and they are very liza
BILE to turn to Mr.. Hearst to lead
their opposition to the President.
Hanna will come back to the Sen
ate and it is believed by many that
his victory in Ohio will lead HIM
to believe that he is destined for
greater things. There is an omi-
NOUS unanimity in agreeing to
Colonel Roosevelt's denomination,
and many politicians, who seem to
know, declare that it is all on the
surface. There is no denying the
fact that the President is popular
with certain sections of the coun-
try, but the old party leaders
would welcome an opportunity to
defeat him. Senators Hanna,
Spooner and Cullom and Secretary
Hay have been mentioned quietly
In Republican circles as available
men, and if opportunity presents
itself there will be sharp opposi-
ton to the President at the next
Republication convention. The
Republican defeat in Maryland,
where the President was an issue,
may serve as a pretext for the OPP.
position in his party. At all
events the loss of New York and
Maryland will weaken the present
Administration.
Secretary Hitchcock has issued
a statement regarding the land
frauds in the Interior Department,
and it must be conceded that it is
a very skillful document in that ii
says practically nothing on sub
iect on which the public has right
to know all. However it is a
marked Improvement on Postmas-
ter General Payne's ''hot air stump

frauds. He says in substance,

THE DEMONSTRATION.

The joint committee representing tho
Boar of Aldermen and the Common
Council charged will, the investigation OF
alleged frauds and disreputable proceed
ings on tho part Of members Of the City
Council. city officers and others. is COM
posed OF excellent material.
Character and capacity both are to be
found in the appolntces. No exception will
be taken by the public to the personnel
OF the committee. and we expect from
then very thorough and diligent work,
The task before them Is difficult and will
be certain to occupy much time; but the
sooner 1t is entered upon. the sooner and
easier it will be discharged.
AT this moment, when the public mind
is almost wholly absorbed in the street
car strike, 1t is not to be expected that
the committee will be BILE to make much
Roadway in taking evidence, but they
can at least organize and equip them
selves FOR work. and arrange pro-
sramme of proceedings. which will ex-
pedatc business when they are ready to
begin the examination OF witnesses.

STAND UP FOR THE LAW.

No matter how the strike Is settled. It
Is the duty Of the people OF Richmond
and Henrlco county to obey the law and
to aid in enforcing the law. 1t is g, duty
they owe themselves as good citizens,
and 1T is their patriotic duty to the gov
ernment
Especially Is It the duty of the author-
ties to see to 1t that there Is ample po-
lice protection. and that there is no tres
pass upon the rights Of any. II the gov
ernment does not do this, 1t Is unfit to
exist. The law must be upheld Mt all
cost and at all haznrd. There must be
no trIfling. no compromise with law
breakers, The government is on trial,
and 1t must meet dts responsibilities
honestly and coureously. or 1t will suf-
fer in the estimate of the people and fall
into contempt.

the Old Reservoir. There WAS then
great Federal military camp at what is
now Harvietown. The travel to and from
that point was great and 1t was supposed
that n line reaching the Old Reservoir
not only would supply the wants OF tho
camp, but would afford notation
to those wishing to visit HOLLYWOOD But
the travel to Hollywood by TINS
route proved ecant. and when the
camp was finally broken up no income
was dervable from that source. The up
shot of 1t all was that the Reservoir
street line was taken UP. Later on IT
was re.established when the electric car
line was Installed here.
Among some OF the many managers OF
the street railways Of old werc John Bacon
Crenshaw George f. Norton and John
II. Richardson. and. at later PERIOD
Charming Bolton.
Mr.. Crenshaw was a wldely-known
member of the Society of Friends. He
was a man of large size and was con-
spcuous figure here on account OF his
broad -brimmed hat and long-talled coat.
Major Norton was one of the heroes OF
the old First RegIment-a fighting man
indeed, Colonel Richardson was also a
brave war o5cer and, If we mistake not
was the founder OF the Young Guard.
Mr.. Bolton was a civil engineer ard even
tuaily secured control of the street-car
line. From his hands 1t passed into those
of the electric company.
The electric company did not secure us
franchises hero without trouble. There
was much contention in the City Couh-
Gil over their request for privileges to
,tse the streets From that event dates
the beginning of the street-car wars,
which have racked council circles SO Of
ten from time to time. There was a day
when the horse cars and electric cars ran
in competition; but the result was fore
soor hy wise men and the "slow coach"
had to "go."
From having one electric line, our city
came to have two nov two In one), besides
miles and miles OF suburban lines, and
the cars from being meat rely patronlzed
have come to be used to such an extent
that pedestriansm is a lost art here al
most.
It is now the park season." the time
when summer cars are much sought
when the lend seat" Is delicious posi-
ton and when 1t Is vexatious and toll
some to have to climb our hills afoot.
Therefore there is a general wish, fer
vently entertained. that the street-car
strike now on may soon end and that our
strect-car service may soon be restored to
its normal condition.

Up to about 1860, Nailer's omnibus line
