QUIET IN A CITY.

Our correspondents who are inter-

tEat the doctrine of the greatest good

elsewhere The instinct for ordinary

instinct is wanting. there are police
regulations to supplement. Here, pos
sibly, the city of Richmond is no,
fully equipped. 1t would be possible
and desirable, to have many more reg
ulations against supernuous noise.

the experience of all planters who

Comment on the first session of tue
Sixtieth Congress must be directed
more on what was left undonc than

Ii, the five messages sent by 9resi-
beginning of December to April 27sh
were twenty-three recommendations
embodying what have become known as
'my policies" To all but three or
four of these, few in Congress save
Senator Beveridge have given rnucn
heed. And for this firmness In igrior-
ling many of the demands of the Pres
,ident--backed as they seemingly We're
/ by {. wide popularity and clamor--Con-
Igress deserves only praise.
Inaction by Congress is frequently
or incalculable service to the country,
and this axiom of government has
rarely had better illustration of its
truth than in the disregard this Con-
Eress has showed to Mr.. Roosevelt's
vehement insistence on extending the

/ Notable has been the diversity OF
opinion. even dssension, developed
among the Republican majority. yet
equally notable was the discipline. en-
ercised to smother these differences
VIXEN they threatened serious harm to
The party.
The session has broken all records;
. in the amount of appropriations: more
than $1,000, 100000 having been deemed
necessary to accomplish effectuaIly the
governments work.
While this stupendous sum was APP
propriated in the face of a certain
deficit in the revenue, it can hardly be
called eXtravagant when the increased

of the departments are considered

How 1t Will BE Affected by the Crun-

In just what respect would the
South suffer from Census Bureau in
restgation of negro disfranchisement
such as the Crumpacker publicity bill
provides for? Southern representation
cannot be reduced By Census Bureau
report.
In preventing publicity Of campaign
contributions in order to balk this in
curry the Democratic Senators have al
lowed the Republicans to put them
in hole. The South cannot prevent
a reduction in representation merely
by defeating a publicity bill, The Re-
publicans can stun take up at amy
time in the future the question of en-
forcing the fourteenth amendment
If the South desires to hold its pres
ent representation 1t must help re-
store the Democratic party in the
North, which twelve years OF Bryan
ism has all but obiterated In national
affairs.
The Worlds advice to the Southern
Senators is to help pass the publicity
investigation; defeat Bryan ut Dewey

Democratic party, and then tight out

PLAYGROUND ron MADISON

O
At the nortlernmost end of Tenth
Street. between Clay and Leigh. lies a
small lot and big gully. Once it
was all gully; but the city is filling
up that abyss and creating valuable
land. When the work of filling in has
been completed there will be created an
ideal site for playground for Madison
Ward.
The Times-D Dispatch has already
called attention to the need of air
spaces and Fairgrounds for that sec
ton of the city, and no better use
could be made of that plot of land than
to use it for the good Of all citizens
At present there are two or three small
hottses on this lot. which could either
be bought or allowed to remain with

this location. Or. If 1t were found
necessary or desirable. the houses
might be removed and the whole tract

There will never be a time when this
lot can be acquired as cheaply as at
present. and 1t is common sense to
make provision for playground in
that section while it can he done with
