A Really Live Town

WILLIAM 8. GREENE

William 8. Greene, who represents

the thirteenth district of Massachu

setts In the national house of repre

sentatives, was born la Tazewell coun

ty, Illinois, April 28, 1841. With his

parents be removed to Pall River,

Man., when three rears old and his

education was received in the schools

of that city. Prior to his election to

Congress he had held many impor

tant public positions in Fall River,

He was a member of the common council for several years, was elected to the mayorallty twice and also filled

two terms as postmaster of the city

In 1899 ba . was elected ! to' Congress

on tha Republican ticket and has con

tinued to represent his district for

Uvea consecutive terms.

. He Wrote For Money.

, father remonstrated with his son,

an Oxford andertmuloata. for wasting Ms Has la writing for local papers and

ettai Dr. Johnson as saying that

Ban wb4 wrote except for money was

1 aaall fallow Dr. Jobasons advice

The statement of the attitude of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad toward the city of Richmond will do a great deal toward clearing things up. The officials directly concerned state "the case in a common sense way. They declare that the South N street situation as a situation is forgotten and anger not cherished for . Richmond as a whole Is not responsible for it. The officials directly In charge of the Chicago division of the C. & O. seem to us to have reason for feeling somewhat at sea regarding Richmond. The town has not hung together not gotten together on the proposl-. tlon. Just as It seemed likely that the C. & O. would probably come here the South N street trouble came up. And wlille the officials say that there is no hard feeling on that account it Is a trifle difficult to explain to the staff board sitting some miles away that it does not represent an attitude of antagonism toward the railroad ia question. In the same way it may be a trifle hard to understand why a town apparently so anxjous for shops and additional shipping facilities should be ordering the railroad to raise its Main street bridge. In neither of these cases do we say that the South X street case nor the raising of the Main street bridge are of themselves the wrong attitude to take. But there you are The question is does Richmond want favors from the C. & O. and Is it going to pursue the tactics that other cities are willing to pursue snd as a matter of fact are pursulrg? You can't much blame the C. & O. people for viewing this thing in some such way as this: "You ask us for freight yards shops and other things of benefit to the community which we are in no way obligated to give you. The first crack out of the box you take the place which seems most available for use for our purposes away from us. Then your city administration advises us that the grade of the bridge over Main street which was set by a former city engineer is wrong and that we will have to change the grade."

Rheumatic

Poison

Rheuma Drives It from tha System . and Cures Rheumatism.

Ever since Leo H. Fine secured the privilege of handling Rheuma in Richmond, the sales have been very large. This is due to the fact that Rheuma really does cure Rheumatism, and that it is guaranteed to cure Rheumatism or money back. It's a quick acting remedy, too. You don't have to wait a long while for re

sults, for Rheuma starts at once to

act on the kidneys, liver, bowels and blood, and before 24 hours the poisonous Uric Acid, which causes Rheumatism, has begun to pass out of the body through the regular channels.

One 50 cent bottle will prove to

any Rheumatic sufferer that Rheuma

surely will cure Rheumatism.

It seems to us that whenever possible such situations should be worked out on a friendly basis. Richmond is allowing the Terre Haute, Indiana and Eastern Traction company to hollow a great mud puddle in the . street at the Junction of the C. & O. If the city did not do this it would have to do without Interurbans coming over the Main street bridge. If we are correctly informed it was never contemplated that there ahould be any interurbans coming over the bridge at all in which case there would be no mud puddle and no conflict 'with the C. & O. tracks and bridge. ' ,

In all this it seems to us that while no one in particular is to blame for this that everyone In the case could profitably get together and work together. It would be our guess that what the C. & O. would rather have than any paltry consideration in tangible form is a dependable, Just and active co-operation in Richmond with an established policy toward the railroad which without comprmising really vital things necessary for the welfare of the city would get down to business and brass tacks. If such a thing had a existed in the past there would have been no such toboggan slide of a Main street brfdge so weak that it is apt to collapse some day; so ugly that it Is a disgrace to the city; so 111 contrived that it is constantly causing some such commotion as exists with the C. & O. and the T. H. I. & E. We 3hould have in other words somebody on. the Job.

necessary, although probably this .'will not be for a number of years. . V A resolution was adopted for the improvement of South E street, from Fourth to Fifth streets, with grading the roadway, cement curb, sidewalk and gutter on both sides. J. B. Sitloh was awarded a contract for the construction of an alley, the first northof South A street, from Twentieth to Twenty-first street, with cement roadway. The contract Improving the alley between D and Elm place, running between North Ninth and North Tenth street was taken under advisement Schneider Brothefs were the only bidders. A resolution was confirmed" for the improvement of South Eighteenth street, from A to B street, with grading and macadamizing the roadway, and cement sidewalk, curb and gutter on both sides. Tho original confirmation of a resolution to improve South H street, between Ninth an Twelfth streets with

cement side walk, curb and guter,

and grading and graveling the roadway was rescinded, an then readopted.

The engineer made a mistake in his

estimate and all bids were too high, under the false estimate. Now it must

be readvertised.

The board of works approved the

Griffith addition plat Thursday. This

adition is on the west side of Sec

ond street.

The primary assessment roll on the

sewer between Chestnut street and the Indianapolis division of the Pennsylvania railroad, running from Second to Fourth street, was approved.

The final assessment roll on to op

ening or an ahey from Bayer to

Crosshall street, was approved. The

alley will be thrown open whenever

It is too common a habit to place the blame on city officials for everything th8t goes wrong. This is a city of twenty-three thousand people. It is an obligation on every man here to make things happen and happen right. , The Commercial club and the Young Men's Business club have done much In the last few years. In fact a new spirit and the resulting new Richmond has come through their efforts. This ought not to drag and wane. There were twenty-five men yesterday in this conference with the C. A O. officials. They ought to be hacked up and encouraged. Such forces at work In the city are only valuable when they have the town behind them. This goes a little farther than the C. & O. situation, though that Is the one best example of what needs to be straightened put. It seems as if another period in the growth of Richmond haa arrived. So much has been done and so easily that some of the novelty has worn off of boosting so some people say. But this is not really so in our opinion. Any town that can raise thousands of dllars in one day as the men in Richmond did for the O. A. R. encampment is pretty much alive.

There is a fine field Vf work going to the very heart of things in this town-building and this is a goood time to commence when so much can be accomplished by settling on a fixed program for a number of years and then sticking to It That Is what outside forces dealing with Richmond want and that is a really live town.
