[Special to The Times-Dispatch.-) Washington.

With just twenty-one days interven? ing between this time i-nd the fall of the chairman's gavel, the situation Is most interesting and has almost nar? rowed Itself down to less than a half dozen questions.

This is Democratic year, and there1 ore few persons hereabouts who, knowing the situation, believe other? wise than that the' whole Republican outfit will be run out of the adminis? tration, bag and baggage, next March. While It is natural that each of the Democratic candidates, through his friends, should be fighting the others with every known device to pull off the nomination, there Is more to bring the Democrats together alter the conven? tion than there is on the Republican side. No one has heard anvthlng of Wil? son or any of the other candidates bolting and holding a "rump'' conven? tion In the event of his losing out at Baltimore; each man expects to win. but so far as can be discovered now, there does not exist that animus that will ?ulke any one resort to the knlf lnK process after the nomination is i made unless it is Hearst. On the con? trary, ihe situation three weeks before the big convention never looked better for harmony all along tfce line. But what Is the situation on the Republican side? There are few who are cognizant of passing events who fail to see that the Rocsevelt rough house men are prepared to resort to ythlng to get the nomination. They e itolng to Chicago to get It decently If they can. otherwise If they must, but have it they will, even If a "rump" convention :s necessary to help In the operation. Then what? If Taft gets the nomi? nation Roosevelt will probably run anyhow, claiming that ho was cheated out of his rights and that he should be declared the regular nominee. In that event trie G <j P. will r.e split to aucn a degree tnat no amount of tinkering will mend It In time for the breach to be healed this year. With Taft as the nominee Roosevelt cannot bo expected to keep still. On the other hand, there is little doubt that he will kick over the ropes and that will tend to a Democratic victory this year. Either horn of the dilem? ma la a bad one for the O. O. P. If Roosevelt Is nominated the Democrats and the Taft people will beat him; if Taft is nominated. Roosevelt and the Democrats will turn tho trick. Either way looks bad for the Republicans and (rood for the Democrats. At the Capitol to-day there la Joy among the men who are to take part In tho Baltimore convention?and that means many of them?because tbey see. at last, the clear light of victory coming to crown their efforts, while dark and lowering clouds are gather? ing out towards Chicago. Wilson, Un? derwood or Bryan are the men now picked to rury the G. O. P. and to per? form the last sad rites next November. P. H. McG. THE WEATHER.

Undeniable is the FACT, proved by all the history of public utility compnies. that any public utility concern projected to enter a field already occcupied by a well-developed and well-conducted company giving good service at rea? sonable rates IS NOT FORMED IN THE INTEREST OF THE "PUB? LIC, BUT FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF BEING ULTIMATELY SOLD OUT AT AN EXORBITANT PRICE. This cost price must go into the capitalization of the purchasing com? pany?for no company can make such a purchase without first securing new capital; and new capital cannot be secured unless there be some assurance of a fair return on the investment. And, as there is nobody but the PL-BLIC to pay the interest on the investment, THE PUBLIC ALWAYS DOES AND ALWAYS MUST PAY THAT INTEREST BY PAYING A HIGHER PRICE FOR THE SERVICE, It is a Natural Law that in the Electric Light and Power business, just as in any other public utility, the QUALITY OF SERVICE IS IM? PROVED AND ECONOMY IS INCREASED, NOT BY COMPETI? TION AND DIVISION, BUT BY CO-OPERATION AND CONCEN? TRATION, i . . ? Vv-V.j?fV. "~ Sometimes man-made laws may be evaded with impunity; but Natural Laws are immutable and inexorable. A community that breaks a Natural Law, j?st as an individual, cannot escape the payment of a heavy penalty? and the worst of it is that the punishment of having to pay that penalty is visited upon the law-breaker's children's children for many generations, THE PUBLIC ALWAYS PAYS AN EXTORTIONATE PRICE FOR PERMITTING COMPETITION IN THE PROVIDING OF ANY PUB? LIC UTILITY, SUCH AS ELECTRIC LIGHT AND POWER, AND ITS EXPLOITER GETS THE MONEY, ;, This is true not only in Richmond, but in every city in the land, and just as true in Richmond as in all those other cities. A corporation now known as the Richmond and Henrico Railway Com? pany, having obtained from the City a street railway franchise (nothing in that franchise about any electric light and power business, mind you), holds that franchise for eight years without laying a foot of track. Having failed to turn the City's GIFT into cash in those eight years, it finally builds its street railway. Having done that, it finds its business unprofitable. So it now asks the City to GIVE it an electric light and power franchise? NOT FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT (ANOTHER ELECTRIC PLANT IN RICHMOND COULD NOT MEET ANY PUBLIC NEED, AND WOULD ONLY BE A PUBLIC NUISANCE AND A PUBLIC BURDEN ) ?but solely to help that company to recoup on a losing venture. It asks this franchise from the City in order to give its property a greater nuisance value?to enable it to sell out AT A HIGHER PRICE. ., Think on these things?and read to-morrow's Service Talk. - " Virginia Railway and Power Company.
