EXCURSION TMFFIC !

More Richmond People Visit Sea

Excursion traffic from Richmond?to i
the seashore this season is much lar- j
per than for the corresponding periodj
.vast year. The Sunday-school excur
sions to Buckroc Beach over the Chesa- '
, peak* and Ohio during the month of
June carried more than 10,000 people,
exceeding 1014" *? record both in the
number of conches and- in pttosen^ors.
The Sunday excursion trains are hand
ling from (500 to 900 people each week,
and the number will probably he
greatly increased during July.
During the Fourth of July holidays
the Chesapeake and Ohio took 2,000
people from Richmond to seashore re
sorts. All regular trains have been
carrying an unusually largo number of
people, and It Is frequently neccssary
to provide extra coaches.
Reports received at the general offi
ces of the Chesapeake and Ohio yes
terday showed that the Cincinnati di
vision of the road was heavily hit by
\\.h? big storm whloh swept over Ohio
?Vt^'ver Valley Wednesday night. 'Die
M^.nt of the division office building at
Y'ourteenth and Madison Streets. Cov
ington, Ky., was blown out, the cupola
of the blacksmith shop and roof of
ti.? roundhouse at the same place were
torn off. and the driveways to the Cin
cinnati and Covington bridge, used by
the Chesapeake and Ohio, put out of
service. Telephone poles for some dis
tance in Covington and Cincinnati
were blown down. Tho report that the
bridge over Licking River, near Cov
ington, had been washed from Its piers
was declared erroneous. Two trestles
on tho Ashland division were washed
out, but no other damage was done.
Passenger train N'o. 4, eastbound, was
ftur hours late leaving Cincinnati
Wednesday night. No other serious
delays in traflic resulted.
President George W. Stevens, of tfle
Chesapeake and Ohio, after spending
several days in the city, went to Vlr
Clnla Manor, his country home, yes
terday afternoon for tho week-end. He
will go to New York early next week,
and on Wednesday will talk over the
transcontinental telephone with Gov
ernor Henry C. Stuart at i.,os Angeles,
formally opening the commercial line
between those two cities. The monthly
meeting of the directors of the road
will be held in New York Thursday.
Western and Southern railroads are
iippeallnp to the Interstate Commerce
, Commission for permission to Increase
the interstate passenger rates. Kxarn
ifier Thurtell, of th" commission, is
holding hearings in Chicago. The
railroads assert that the reduction In
pssFejiger rates due to the intrastate
, -??hedules of fares has failed to result
i . 11 any Increase in passenger traffic,
t uid an the greater part of tills class of
traffic is within tho borders of one
State, thev ask for what they term a
more equitable adjustment of rates.
It is estimated by the Western roads
that the proposed interstate fare ad
vances would increase the revenue of
titf: fortv-six systems or roads, parties
to the petition. Including about 120,
? miles of line, by from J20.000.000
to 125,000,000. Several State railroad
? immlasions are Opposing the proposed
ir.- reases.
."'tstistlcs compiled by K. T. Craw
ley. industrial agent of the Chesapeake
and Ohio, show that within the last
v.-ar, .*>7,11! acres of land in Virginia
have iieen taken up by Immigrants.
Momeseekers arc coming to the State
from Canada, the Middle West, the
Northwest, and even one or two from
Alaska. The land taken up last year
was purchased at an aggregate price
oi $1,251!,543 in trarts running from one
sere ti> 9,000 ncr*-s. The highest price
i paid was by S. IV Smithfleld, of Mlchi
/ can, who bought a farm of *71 acres in
Culpeper County, paying $45,000 for the

The Pinckneys?Fathers of the Republic'
PERHAPS South Carolina's best gift to this Free Republic was the splendid services of her two great sons?
Charles Cotesworth Pinckney and Charles Pinckney. It can truthfully be said of the Pinckneys that
their love of honor was greater than their love of power, and deeper than their love of self. One
played an important part in the "Louisiana Rirchase?the other, while an envoy to France, was told
that" the use of money would avert war, and to this replied;"Millions for defense., but not one cent for tribute?
Both devoted their eminent abilities toward framing our National Law. The Constitution of the United States, as
it stands to?day, was built, upon the framework of a plan first proposed by Charles Pinckney, It was he who
demanded that it contain freedom of religion, freedom of the press, habeas corpus and trial by jury. In political
faith only did these two great men differ. Charles Pinckney was an ardent Democrat, and Charles C. Pinckney a
loyal Fedenalist, and was twice a candidate for President. It is easy to imagine the horror that these two great lovers
of Personal Liberty would have expressed if shown the proposed Prohibition Laws of to-day. It is needless to say
that if alive they would VOTE NO to such tyrannous encroachments upon the NATURAL RIGHTS OF MAN. The
