[ CAPTAIX LKAnVS ISLAXU.
■ Altogether, the most picturesque and
■ interestlnsj character that, has been de
[■yeioßtid by the S»:irJsh-Amcrican war.
'■. aiid our transactions in insular real es
; tate is Captain Richard i. J-pary, who
? .appears in the official: records under the
> modest designation of "naval Governor
: of. Guam." but who really, the square
[ feet of territory he governs considered,
[ is one of the most independent and arbi
trary potentates on this terrestrial ball.
| Guam is a stray island somewhere in
I the Pacitic ocean-it doesn't matter much
hvhere— to which Spain hud a. loose-jokit
eflititlei and against which, either by ac
s cident or ue_:gn, one of our cruisers ran,
S-vvhileS -vvhile on its way to help plant our im
perial eagles in the Philippines: 'Forth-.
Uvlth we pror-ef.dcd to hois: the Am-ri-
I can flag over it and iinpeiialice it, and
f -about ' six mouths ago we put Captain
j*^;ca:y in a gunboat, or some other small
[»ival craft, and sent him' out to govern
i It? What Captain Leary'H instructions
are not advised, but it is very
[ Hear, from the manner in -which he has
'^ischargod liis trust, that should he ba
/fathered to his fathers, and should the
\ Czar of all the Russlss be thrown out of
\^. job. the latt-r would ranke an ideal
'■Successor to the won hy Captain.
* .There is a shrewd suspicion that the
■ Island of Guam was annexed in order to
ii:ake a place of honorable exile for thu
icaptain. The story goes that he is
''Kiown in the navy as a. great "sea law
;^- er> - .: ant i . has heen the terror of all
grades in; the service from cooks, to ad
[inirals.' .But be that as it may. his course
lik Governor of Guam has. already made
rone; of the most remarkable, and at the
jsame time amusing, chanters in Amerj-
Icanlhistory, and if some genius does not
fWQik : it up into an opera .tic extravaganza
tthat will double discount the "Pirates of
fpenzauce" v.-c shall be very much sur
\ prised.
P Communication with Guam is only oc
casional and semi-occasional, but every
«*_zne -ive hear from there we learn of the
jj-sue of a new proclamation, decree, or
Wkase'oy the Captain, showing that he
himself as lord of. all he surveys,
fed doesn't care who knows it. By a
cpuccession of decrees he has .-constituted
•Virnself head of the State, head of the
and Supreme Juc3_;e; has brought
Übout, nolens volens, universal, matri
mony, somewhat after the/style or an
'aforetime Pegua^i ruler, and has banish-
Icd clergy- He has been a law and a.
% ii:onstitution unto himself, and his latest
orders that the c _2d of P.;b
truaryV Washington's birthday, shall be
! Celebrated by the abolition of peonage, a
repanifch form of serfdom. Certain ad
mirers of Captain Leary argue that in
rhis he is only, conforming to a provision
2of the thirteenth amendment to the. Con
i;UtuUoa. and, therefore, the peonage
fcuixrlition decree canuot be classed with
liis previous proc.^inss. Km they are
anistaken. He is in cp«teinpt;of the adj
ISinis-tration. He is as independent and
.(arbitmry in this matter a.-- in :he others
'jive'h'ave noted./ The administration, by:
iits'-treaty with :hv Sultan of Sulu, abol-
the? thirteenth aniendment, so far
\\s. it affected our-insular. possessions. Mr.
distinctly recognized the right
k'i the inlands where slavery and involun
fey servitude existed, to continue the cus
fer'AOV see it. Captain ]^?ary would

Chicago's newness robs it of sonic pic

been of prodigious value' to it. It hns

where i- everything and everybody were,

it lias drawn immensely upon the brain
and brawn of the old States and/oC. the

AVhen we consider what Chicago has
done in its brief life, we cannot but won
der what it will do during the next fifty
or hundred years. If the rate r of increase
which it iias maintained from the start
should continue, it will not be long before
it distances New York in population: but
we do not say that it will do "so. There

Jersey justice has long had ihii ii'i>ti
taiion of being unusually severe, but- the
State is now waking up to the possibility
of reforming prisonoi-s. and thus enabling,
them: to start upon a better life.
The introduction of a variety of prison
reforms is contemplated by the State
Legislature, and chief among these, it is
said, is the "indeterminate sentence."
This system is in vogue in one or more
of tlit; States already, and i:s: operations
are; being carefully watched by prison
reformers. None the. less, the details of
the plan that is being ■corisideicd in I\'e\v
Jersey will prove interesting.
It. is provided that the judge may have
the; power either to name a term of. im
prisonment nr "neslect to fix" a period.
In the lattei case the Court will furnish
the Board of Control all needlul informa
tion about the prisoner's crime and his
antecedents. Power will be given to re
lease the prisoner conditionally on parole.
Jf such, a paroled person acts worthily
while at large— he will be kept under
careful surveDlance— the Varole Board
mny. after six months, give him his final
discharge. If he shows himself incoiri
gibie, eitlur hy violating his parole or
otherwise, he will' be liable to rearrest
and shall be made to serve his maximum
term from that time. If wJiile at large
he commits a fresh crini?. lie may be
sentenced for a term to begin at the ex
piration of the previous term.
It j? claimed that the. plan, while it
would prove very hard on deliberate law
breaker?, would in every way tend to the
reforming of criminols v/ho have in them
the possibilities of good. This is
said/to be the opinion of both philanthro
pists and cold students of criminology.

The New York Journal of Commerce.
in a:V article on the !; "evolution"' of tlie
century, soys the dominant influence in
progress has been the people speaking
the English language, represented by
Great Britain and her self-governing
colonies and by. the : United: States, and
that their inultiplieation has beeii one or
its most notable characteristics. As to
this multiplication the Journal gives .some
interesting-; n^ures. When the century
bejran. -it says, those people numbered
only 22,000,'»), or : 1G.000,000 less than (he
people, who spoke German; 12,000,000 loss
than those who spoke French, and 10.000,
000 less even than those who spoke Span
ish. As the cea&iry draws to its .close,
the people who' speak English as their
mother-tongue number 327.000,000— an in
crease of 477 per cent., and" a greater
number than all the people who Speak
French and German combined. At the
end of the last century there were in
these United States orily .5,000,000 inhabi
tants; the census with which this one
will terminate will hardly show less than
7,",000,000. In the same period the popula
tion or the United Kingdom has grown
fr0m ..16,000.000 to 41,000,000.. and the colo
nists of- English;- race .have increased
from a' few hundred thousand to between
11.000,000 and 32,000,000. At the beginning
of the century the population of the Eu
ropean continent was 170,000,000. // At its
close the total approaches ."43,000,003.
Thus, says the Journal, in conclusion,
while at the end of the last century the
"Enylish-speaking: family was outnumber
ed by the nations of continental Europe
in. the proportion of S to 1, it is outnum
bered by them to-day in the proportion
of 2.7 to 1 only.
: The Director of the United States mint
is trying, to disc-over the whereabouts ot
SSW.OOO.OW in American sold coin, which
lias been "lost, strayed, or stolen" from
his observation. Don't understand that
our government has been robbed; on the
contrary, this vast sum of money has dis
appeared in a JC'gitimate way, but in just
what way nobody quite knows. Director
has kept the run of the greater
p'art'of" the sold coined in this country
since IS7O. but a considerable! portion of it
has ehidcd I'.i.s search. It has disappear
ed from circulation and gonti— he knows
not where. If it has been 'incited down
for' s ' scientific ami mercantile Puii»p*os
some of the government statistics are at
fault. Heretofore it has been supposed
that gold coin 10 the value: of $1,000,000
has .-m'nually been melted for use iii '.he
arts, bul this calculation is now mistrust-;
cO. Perhaps this l'.gure is i!'it ony-half;
large viiouyh.' At any rale, -0,050, circu-'

The cominirtsionefs.;»'r the: United ' States
who -will have charge /of our ■ exhibits
at the Paris /Kxposltion/will make Hpe
cisili efforts to educate foreigners in the
u.W of Iml inn coin, or, "malr.e," as it If.
called by; foreigners. Its nutritious quali
ties/, and general, attractiveness: as an
article, of , ; Olet will".' be poin'tod : out
through the medium oT an American
kitchen, where all the food products of
corn will be dispensed. /Though our cotin
try .makes large shipments of corn to
Ktirope. itVis used thore chiefly as f«>od
for stock. ~
The kitchen scheme . is not altogether
without a .purposiJ. "Uncle Sam" has
Jons; tried: to induce his Kurop.-an
brethren to buy his corn, but " somuhoiv
they iinvtJ taken; up a violent .dislike to
it and are as prejudiced against it as
was Dr. ' Johnson against the 'oats of
.Scotland. The gJt-ai literary dictator, it
will be remembered, said in his dictionary
that oats w.-ro an article eaten by
P'.'ople in; Scotland ami fed .to. horses in
Kngland. Whether 'Johnson was right
or wrong in his aspersions on oats, , there
is no doubt thru cornmcal is a very
wholesome and agreeable rood, when pro
perly cooked. Ami then, too, the pro
ducts of our Indian corn can be made
to assume many enticing shapes. Aside
from t be temptations offered by a "pone"
of brown- combroad, 'there are the grid
dle-cakes to be considered, and hoe
cakes, tuo, to say nothing of canned
corn, mid, in these days of rapid transit,
"roasting ears."
All these, delights the Europeans must
be taught to enjoy, not only- for their
own good health, and for purposes of
economy, but because their fondness Tor
our national cereal would put vast sums
of money into our pockets:
LJiit; as we liave intimated, the people
across the water, as a'miiss, have so far
refused to recognize the merits of corn.
They say it was never intended to -pass
through the human gullet. Some years
ago a commissioner was sent to Europe
to tench its uses, but his efforts proved
an absolute failure. Now .we shall try
again. Even if nothing else is accom
plished, it will delight /many.an American
visiting the exposition to have an. oppor
tunity to nibble a "pone" of cornbreao,
or .to eat green corn off the cob, and let
the golden -butter- trickle down his oliin.

In the isstic beforo us. we find an illu
minated cover and sixty-odd pages of in
structive reading matter. One of i's il
lustrated articles is descriptive of.Vnn
derbilfs great farm" in North Carolina.— .
one of the most remarkable agricultural
establishments in the world.' Another
that we have found very interesting is
entitled "Heminiscences of the Past
Sixty Years." and is from the pen of our
old friend, Dr. AY. 11. Ruffner. Still
others on the same subjest are from
Samuel B. Woods, of^. Albomarle, and
ilichard Lrby, of Hanovor.

In an article on "the open-door in
China." the New York Tribune- contends
that none of the great Powers want to
}>ossess the Celestial empire. Then it
adds:
"Jlonakong is well enough; and if each
of the others want to have a Hongkong
of her own, Russia at Talien-Wan, Ger
niany at Kiao-Chau,. France somewhere
else, and Italy at some other point, well
and good. Japan can probably operate
smnciently well through Korea and For
mosa, and for the present the Philippines
may serve all needs of the United States."
' "For the present," forsooth! Ifjth'at re
servation means anything it means that
the imperialists— one of whose chief, or
gans/is: the Tribuno— simply look vipon
the Philippines as a stepping-stone to an
American grab in. China, and the" further
entangling of this country in the jealous
ies and the broils of the European
Powers.
Now that Captain Cook has assumed

the fact remains that in this particular

the skill and the money in our city, and
our whole State is open to our output.
We have a wheel factory at our doors
whose entire production goes out of our
State, perchance to bo returned in the
finished vehicle. With a large carriage
manufacturing plant here, this -need not
be so. but other industries supplying parts
necessary to the carriage, which does not
in this day lie in. the province .of
the carriage-maker to produce, would lo
cate here. I could give an example of
what such an industry would be worth
to Richmond, but that is r. it necessary
here. I therefore cherish the hope that this
year there may be a, decided movement
towards the establishment of one or more
factories for the wholesale manufacture
of vehicles in' this city. CITIZEX.
Of course, we should be delighted to
see a large carriage factory established
here, but it is not a fact that that industry
was not mentioned in our Ist of January
Ko. In the table of manufactures the fol
lowing statement appeared:
Carriages, Wagons, anfi Carts: Number
of establishments, S3; number of hands
employed.. 1.75; capital in business, 5355.C00;
annual sales, 257.116. Our only fault, if
any w Q have committed, v. - as in not
separating the carriage-makers from the
wagon- and cart-makers— The' Dispatch.

Richmond's remarkable prosperity dur
ing the year just past is admirably shown
in the special New Year No. of the Dis
patch. In a line edition of twenty-four
pages; — well planned, well printed, and
well written— our contemporary. ex
haustively reviews the happenings of the
twelve, months as thes* -have affected its
growing city.
"The concrete fact," says the Dis
patch, "is that 1539. has been a year of
marvellous industrial development in
Richmond and vicinity. /In that respect
it smashes all previous records. •* * * Rich
mond is now a builder ■■ of ships, and a
manufacturer on a large scale of loeoir.c
th-es: also, of tobacco fin every form),
'fertilizers, nails, horseshoes, railroad
fastenings, engiiie-axies. Hour, baking
powder, school-books, agricultural imple
ments, machiuery of many sorts, stoves,
boots and shoes, glassware, bags, paper,
tin- and wooden-boxes, buckets, tubs,
and wheels, and many other goods."
We rejoice in the revival of business
activity in the city on the James, and
our congratulations are not any les;i
hearty because Tof the fact that some of
the opportunities which Richmond has
seized of -ate have been neglected by
Norfolk and Portsmouth. The sight of
what v.'c have lost by our own slowness
to move should not arouse in : us any
other feeling than a resolution to do bet
ter next time. Here's to Richmond and
to the Richmond Dispatch !

Mr. Ivoirior SJesieivert by As>!>He:ui<-<
for Fei'liliz'tM- Inspectorsljiiis.
There wis an unprecedented number of
callers at the Department of Agriculture
yesterday. Nearly every one wanted an
appointment r.s a fertilizer inspector, or
wanted a friend appointed. No appointees,
have been recommended; by. Commission
er ICoiner.' The. appointments will be
made by the Hoard of Agriculture.
Commissioner Koiner has just returned
from a visiL to the Department of Agri
culture of North Carolina, the object of
his trip being that he might see the
working- of the fertilizer law in that
State, where there is a tonnage tax 0f. 20
cents. Mr. Koiner says the department
of I»*orth Carolina has/ ever':,- facility for
conducting its work, anil he compliment
ed it most highly.
The IMorning Post, of Raleigh/quotes
■Jlr. Koiner.; as follow.-;:
"The Agricultural Department in Vir
ginia is now enabled to start out on new
and practical lines. We will rush the
work of immigration and expect to Put
our department on a similar plane" with
the North Carolina department. We will
increase the number of farmers' insti
tutes. I believe in the practical instruc
tion received at these institutes. We
show a farmer how to make a new dol
lar, and that is really the object of our
work." '
In concluding its article, the Post says:
"Commissioner Koiner has been very
successful in building up the Department
of Agriculture in Virginia, though he-has
only been at the head of the department
a short vrhile. He is a young man, full
of energy, and enthused over his work."
Mr, Koiner has been a member of the
Virginia Legislature for three terms. He
left for Richmond this morning, much
pleased with his stay in' Raleigh.

appearance yesterday. The girls employ
ed there, about 173, ' Went/out oil a strike.
At. this factory all-tobacco cigarettes
are made, and- for some time there has
been dissatisfaction among the girls. On
the first of the year a new scale of -/wages
was made effective, and the girls contend
that it amounts to a 5 per cent, reduc
tion. They declined to accept this cut,
and left their benches yesterday.
Mr. E. Victor Williams, manager of the
factory, when asked by a Dispatch man
concerning the strike, replied that he did
not regard it as a strike, and expected
that the trouble would adjust itself satis
factorily this morning. The girls, he said,
had made no. demands. ,
