DR.. TYLER FOR VICE-PRESIDENT.

A letter received from distin-
guishcd gentleman from the State
of Arkansas, proposes our honor
ed fellow citizen Lyon G, Tyler,
as a running mate on the ticket
with William Jennings Bryan.
II not. why not. " Bryan and
Tyler would not sound bad, on
the contrary, it has taking ring
about it, like the old slogan of
Harrison and Tyler" in 1870.
Williamsburg furnished a Vice
President then and it is about
time to have another.
Although Lyon G.. Tyler's career
has been generally spent in the
quiet pursuit of literary life, his
acquaintance in the United States
is extensive, and he would not be
an unknown man He has been
4 deep student OF history and
political law and his books have
heen highly complimente1 in the
Reviews. Such for instance is
his " England in America in
the series of books called the
American Nation" his Nara
tives of Early Virginia" his
Cradle of the Republic" The
distinguished historian Philip
Alexander Bruce says that his
William and Mary Quarterly"
would constitute a monument
sufficient for any man. Heis an
excellent speaker. aad his adj
dress on May IS at the annual
meeting of the society of the
Founders and Patriots of Amer

petent critic one of tine best ever
delivered before that body. This
banquet was a memorable ocCa-
sion. as Gen. Fred d. Grant, Ad-
miral Goodrich and other distin-
guished men made addresses.

1t IL time that our right to leader
ship should be recognized. If
our leaders are worthy to lead-if
thew are fit for anything but to
follow. to serve. and to obey, let
them assert their rights and the
rights of their people. or Let them
retire and make place for those
who have courage and self
esteem.
The people of the South want
a strong, bold. aggressive leader.
and we want him badly. We are
tired of being the followers OF

RICHMOND AND URBANNA.

MIL A O'ASH EAtNt( " ~ ~ -.
We clip the following from our
esteemed contemporary and ear
nestly hope that she will con-
tinue to agitate a railroad for this
section of Virginia:
A recent visit of the Tines Dis
Datch'S industrial editor to Ur-
banna again directs attention to
the need of rail communications
between Richmond and that sec
ton of Virginia. At present the
sole means of reaching Mathews,
MiidleseX and Gloucester is by
train to West Point and thence
by vehicle or the York River line.
or by the Old Dominion line to
AfObjack Bay. These routes are
SO CiICuitous and the DELAYS in
tranSshipTnent are SO great that
all trade between Richmond and
that prosperous section is cut off.
The counties of Midd!esex,
Mathews and Gloucester produce
extremely valuable crops in truck.
and also large amounts Of fish,
oysters and crabs. All this trade,
with return purchases, goes dreCt
10 Baltimore. Yet Urbanna is
but fifty-nine miles from Rich
mond. If a trolley line were
built from West Point to Urbanna,
it would involve a construction Of
eighteen miles. This trolley line
could cross the Mattaponi at
Walkerton or Ayletts. and if it is
too expensive to do otherwise, the
river could he ferried' at West
Point.
AS soon as such development is
made large and prosperous bus
mess would spring up between
Richmond and this rich section,
which at present is as far re-
moved from the industrial and
commercial life of this city as if
it were beyond the Rocky Noun
tains. and the reason is simply
because no transportation facili-
ties for trade with Richmond
exist. Like everything else, trade
follows the line of the least re-
sistance The open water courses
TO Baltimore have furnished
cheap and effective means of in
accommodation for the last 400
years but with the growing use
electricity and the enormous de-
Velopment which the Richmond
and Chesapeake Bay Railroad
has in view, there seems every
reason to hope that the rich and
growing section in which Urban
ma is located will prove sufficient
ly attractive 10 secure at least
electric communications via West
Point with Richmond.-Times-
Dispatch.
With an electric road from Ur-
hanna to RichmcnI it would
not be very long before the
tracks would be extended TO
Gloucester and from their to
Mathews. That there will be a
railroad between Mathews and
Richmond we have no doubt, but
whether it will be IN the near
future or in the long distant we
are unable TO say. but think that
the surest and best way to see it
n fact is to keep on agitating it.
Some great captain Of industry
will loom up one of these days,
take hold of It aud push It along,
