ma,ely thirty million dollars They will be

In the list Virginia Is favored with the fol.
lowing appropriation: Mattaponi river. $40

harbor $4,000, James river. $4,000; Norfolk

600: Pagan river $1,000; Inland water route
from Norfolk TO Albemarle Sound $4,000 The
total amount contemplated for Virginia waters
is s503,o00
Continuing the policy of developing the great
inland rivers the west receives much greater APP

THE COURTESY OF 4 GUEST

We have nothing to do with the quarrel of
Mr.. Taylor an Ohio delegate the High
ways convention, and a morning contempor-
airy. They can settle it among themselves But
we have a concern for the reputation of Rich
mond for hospitality and fairness and We are
moved to protest against the implied slur this
Mr.. Taylor cast upon city and the language
In which 1t uttered.
II he has been correctly quoted he was quite
generous in his use of damn and damnable and
infamous and lie and such other epithets as
Southern gentlemen SLOW to utter and are
never permitted by common poiteness In the
presence OF ladies. Perhaps. however. this gen
tleman has found the customs and courtesies of
our city so unusual and SO Objectionable that
he hes felt justified in the invecttve which seems
to spring naturally and spontaneously TO his
lips
Mr. Tayior's experience Is unique OF all
tho great and many conventions that Richmond
has entertained not has failed to give ex-
preston to IT'S appreciation of and delight in
the charming hospitality or our city. No eitl-
rem has failed TO employ every opportunity OF
showing courtesy and kindness 10 the stranger
within our gates and. until now. visitor TO
our city has felt called upon TO reflect upon
its hospitality and to distribute such generous
portion OF rage.
We regret exceedingly that Mr. Taylor should
have found disappointment In his expectations
OF Southern courtesy and hospitality. but We
feel moved 70 remark that The guests Obligation
OF courtesy toward his host Is as great as the
hosts obligation of hospitality towards the
Euest.

OF these result In the frequent miscarriage Of
justice and in delays which IL long enough,
amount especially In their effect upon the pub
lie to an absolute miscarriage of Justice
1t is this feeling that the cuprit may escape
the penalty or his misdoing or at best that the
administration Of justice may be long delayed
that has inspired enraged ngats to take mat
tiers in their hands and deal summary
vengeance upon the head OF the miscreaut.
Were the processes OF the law more expeditions

control their rage and wait until the offender

This situation prevents the penalty having its
