New York Sun, a Democratic
Paper, Bolts Presidential
Nomination

New York, Aug. 1.-THE Sun rays
editoriaily this morning that it will
support Roosevelt and Fairbanks. In
giving it's rea9on for it's attitude, the
Sun says:
Nothing mas come from Judge
Parl0er's hips or pen TO indicate he
possesses a single political idea mark
ing him as statesman of independ-
ent initiative; of courage superior to
the st. Louis brand; of stature to
command and lead
"As the case is now made up we
prefer the impulsive candidate Of the
party of conservatism TO a mildly con-
servative, temporarizing opportunist
representative Of the Hun vote in
the background. We nave more faith
in the distinc promises of the Chicago
platform, not ignoring the many seri-
our defects of that document, than
we have in the miserable hell-breath
of dishwasher and dynamite concoct-
ed at st. Louis a month ago by a par
ty afraid to renOunce its criminal fol-
lies, and tasted yesterday at Esopus
by the respectable candidate who de
cares with gusto that it's flavor is
We shall therefore advo-
cate the election of Roosevelt and
Fairbanlu, and advise the defeat of
Parker and Davis. preserving our own
absolute independence of organic
control, and our freedom of iudg-
nent as to every specific question oc-
,uuing And may Honorable Theo-
lore Roosevet's present mood con-
inue, and if he is elected may the
nscoumger OF precipitancy stand al
ways at his elbow"

Gain is Attributed to the Policy of

er a Drag.
TOTAL BALANCE S22, 900

The annual report of the city clerk
and the city treasurer was presented
to council last evening. The chief
feature of it is that the electric light
plant is not drag any more, as the
city is now in better financial condi-
ton than at any time since the build
ing of the light plant. The balance
in the treasury is now about $4,000,
seven thousand more than at the end
of the fiscal year ending April 80,
1908. This is very creditable show
ing and shows that Richmond is be-
ing run on strictly money-making
and economical principles. Mayor
Zimmerman was well satisfied with
the showing and he attributes it to
the policy of economy which was fol-
lowed by the old council and which,
if he has anything to do with it, will
be followed by the next council.
The budget for the various COM
mittees remains about the same.
