Even the inw was merely obstacle to be surmounted or Trovsasps / | G REATLY ty a2| Repcozp mined. Broad avenues and hardly less valuable!

Every business man wants the Norfolk and Wew under proper restrictions a+ to the method of its entrance and the character of its terminals, every merchasit has sufferet for months from the undeniable freight bleckade and there i« Joud and earnest apyeal for the relief which ean only be given by «a competing road. ‘This i the time for every man who is interested in the welfare of the city to assert himself; to require of those who are, in a vense, representatives of the D: that they shall not misrepresent their voteless constituents: toinaist the: this is = great center of intelligent popu lation and not a village; to ask for the admis- sicn under proper conditions of every raulroad that wants to come im; and to demand that no heed be paid to the interested representations of «corporation that apparently cares nothing for the community out of which so much bas been gotten for vothing. —— | “ mt accidents, most of them fatal, sone te some of the railroad crossings @rade within the city limits are not properly protected. This sbould be immediately looked to and every pre prevent any further thee pintes.” — Baitinwre . Pastamore has a real grievance in this matter | of grade crossings, but it is much less than the grievance from which Washington suffers. | Most of the tracks in our neighbor city are | Duried beneath the streets; bere they are all on the surface. No matter how carefuliy the cross- ings are protected there will always be acci- | dents thereat. The only remedy is in the cle-| Yation or depression of the tracks so that the Fights of the people to use their own streets shall not be interfered with. - — Rush Norman and Henry Collins, heretofore | ‘unknown to fame, have inaugurated something | ; new in duels and are entitled to a Feasonable amount of credit for discovering Weapons which while not necessarily murderous would make combets on the field of honor quite as interesting as prize fights or foot bail matches. Beer bottles were used and with | picturesque effect, one of the combatants having is nose severed, his ieft eye removed and his Physiognomy very generally and sanguinarily fattened out. There may be no place in the ode for beer bottles, bat that defect can easily be remedied by an amendment. — Something more than rapid transit bas re- @alted from the wholesale introduction of the trolley streot raiiway system in n; some- | thing for which not even rapid transit can com- | pensate. The fire insurance companies are leaving the city. Several of the out-of-town companies have closed their branch offices in what was once the city of churches, bat which & now the city of overbend electric wires. | Other corporat have decided to refuse all | Froders of new business and are now reinsuring @kd risky at highor rates and with all possible rapidity.
