RYAN'S BARBECUES. -. In Nelson County, Virginia, Mf. Thomas F, Ryan is the biggest and | , most prosperous farmer. He wad borti there on an old plantation, where his father before the war was the ovérseer of the slaves, a job cortespond- Ing to the foreman of a repalr gang on the Metropolitan Street Railway. Ss -_ Not that the men in the fépair gang fre slaves in the sense that were the q workmen on the Virginia farm, Because they are free to quit and the © Metropolitan Railway does not have to support them in dull times, in Sickness or in old age, as Mr. Ryan's father’s employer was compelled by the old Virginia Slave law to support his workmen, whom he could no more starve ot discharge or treat cruelly than he could his horses or his cows. » When Mr, Feyan became affluent through collecting two and one- half cents profit on every five-cent fare, he sent to Virginia and bought the old plantation. He hiréd an overseer. He repaired the buildings, put Ti ep mea aw tence, -ctocket the farm-with pettieread Horsee aftd cattle and be-| ‘Came a country gentleman, something that in Virginia before the civil war ~ took several generations. To emphasize his new position Mr. Ryan the other day gave a great | harbettic. = Reviving an old antebellum custom, he Invited all the! "prominent politicians, the Governor, the United States Senators, the cOoufity officials, the members of the Legislature and State committeemen. {There was a large attendance. Senator Daniel and Senator Martin both | ‘were present. Each of them is fearful of the result when Mr. Ryan's = tandidacy for the United States Senate is announced. Neither of them | * wants his term to be expiring at that time. For Mr. Ryan is a legal resi- | dent of Virginia. He votes there. He went to the last Democtatic Na- | thonal Copvention as a delegate from the district where his father was. overseer. i y The barbecue was a great sutcess. A huge ox was roasted on a big spit over an Open fire. There was plenty to eat and to dtink. Dry Dollar | Sullivan's or Battery Dan Finn's attual chowder did not more lavishly Provide for the huniet and thirst of the populace. There were men present from all secti Hts of the Staté. The Governor wes there, and on down the offi. ial pay-roll to the clerks of the Legislature everybody took pains to be present to propitiate Mt. Ryan. 3 While the Nelson Count ox tas being roasted to a-tutn on a Vir- ; tints stick the people of New York wéré being roasied in the barbecue © which the traction merger gives every morning and every evening on it cars, with the difference that the Virginin barbecue was at Mr. Ryan's ex pense, the New York barbecue is for Mr, Rya's profit. Should Mr. Ryan's plans be successful New York may in the course of time have a certain sort of representation in the United States Senate. Tt had one Senator, Mr. Brice, whom the Obio-Legislature kindly elected. It has | a Senator Clark now by virtue of the Montana Legislature. Mr. Flagler u might induce the Florida Legislature, which has already granted him ¢x-| ceptional favors, to make Him Senator. Mr. Harriman might utilize one i of his Western Railroad States. Mr. Belmont might take advantage of a Rhode Island residence. Still, maybe Mr. Ryan's ambitions will fail. The State of Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Monroz and Lee may set New York an example in revolting.
