Edltor of The Tlmen-Dlspatchi Sir,.In an editorial on "Tainted Mohey" In your Isbuo of the 18lh, you «ay, "To «it quietly by, while fortunes urn being Im¬ morally picked up all about u«, and then to «corn to have anything to do with them (or, however, high a oaune, Is both short- sighted and tooll«h." What you «ay tnle, but you do not go far enough. It fortune« havo, been thus picked up, It cither becaueo thoro ar« no sufficient laws to prevent It, or the law« are not properly enforced. Such laws .can oly bo passed' when thorn Is a sentiment behind them, ni;d can also bo enforced only when they are backed up by an educated popular sentiment. Tho universities and college« of tho country ought to bo the places whero the young men of tho country are taught sen¬ timent« of what right and moral. Will they bo thus taught, when the head« of thn&'o, Institutions, have received'largu gifla from men. who aro known to havo acquired, their wealth by questionable men 7 As you say,· President Hadley, of Yfllo, will hardly mako tiny remarks about Mr. Rockotoller, utter his Institution has ac¬ cepted a gift of a million of dollar« from ljhn. ¦»,' And to come closer home, In my vlovv, the authorities of tho University of Vir¬ ginia ought to have refuabd to accept tho Ï100.000 that Mr. Rockefeller recently gave them, ; '--' ¡ When tho educated public sentiment of tho country noi only disapproves ot tho practices of Mr. Rockefeller and of other« of his kind, but demand that law«-shall be passed to break them up, and when pushed shall bo enforced, the day will not be far distant when the-acquirement of such fortunes Mr. Rockefeller's will become an Impossibility. But this will never be done long as such men can «top tho mouths of those who should be leaders ot tho people by the gifts of large sum« of money, wlitoh they have unlawfully rwriing out of the body of tho people. S. B. WHITEHEAD. Lovlngston, Va. Annexation and Obstruction. Editor of The Timos-Dlspatch: Sir,.Your editorial in to-day's Issue, headed "The Folly of Obstruction," anent the shameful manner In .-which tho city has been provehted from annexing the terrltory_that she so badly needs and which the public wishes to tie taken' In, by one or two men hi tTi'o Council and Board of Aldermen, though couched In seemingly apologetic.tones (doubtless to· Messrs. Mills and Blair), Is »till the most virila and foroefül thing ybu have.-iald.1 Now, Mr. Editor, I would not tie dis¬ courteous to any momber of our, city government, and there la personal feeling in what I «ay. But X submll that what concerns tho welfaro and pros¬ perity of tho city Is matter of. interest, or should be. to every citizen, and tho acts of our colludimeli and uldermen uro legltlmato subjects for erIUclBm. Granllng this, thero aro many .people In Richmond who would like to know why Messrs. Mills and Blair aro working, «o strenuously fo keep tho .''public (by Whom they hold their Jobs) from having what they have so strongly declured they wanted.I. p., liberal annexation. And does Mr. Mills dominate the entire Coun¬ cil? Can no needed Improvement go through when he oppose« It! By what virtue does Mr. MIUb arrogate' to himself the privilege of killing moasures înè'ed'od and long desired by the city? "Mr. Mills and Mr. Blair! It does scorn to some of us that every move made hero for pro¬ gresa Is at ottco taken In charge of and killed outright or bulqhorcd and emascu¬ lated, and by whom? By either Mr. Mills or Mr,' Blair, possibly by both (their combined efforts arc supreme). It la sad augury for tho future of Richmond that ono or two .gentlemen have taken tho old town in charge and have decided Just what and what is not good for It; Tho people Want llboral annexation. Nobody In town knows this bolter than Messrs. Mills and .Blah·. The peoplo elected Messrs. Mills and Blair to the positions they hold, I ask,. then, what reason can they give for scheming in every posslblo manner to keep tho people from having what they,know thu people wunl? When thóy purauo such a course Ihey should not complain peo¬ plo say things. But, then, perhaps they don't complain, Wo used to know Mr. Siili« when ho lived along the banks ? G the Rappahan- nock, and though an hitcHlgcnt young man, ho wa« hi no wise above the usual. Sine« his coming to Richmond I fain would ask: "Upon what nient doth this our Caesar feed" that ho wotlld rule tho dly? As «toted before, we mean no disre¬ spect to either of. the gentlemen alluded to, hut soino of us" would llko to know «Imply If those two city father« (and mother«, too) are to bo allowed to com¬ pletely domlnuto and drag their way In overy matter of Interest to the pity? Are all tho other councilman and alder¬ men mico, or aro there, a fow real mou and patriotic, men In the bunch? ANNEXATION. Richmond, Vn. A Negro's View of Italians. Editor of The Tlmes-Dlspatch; Sir,.A few Sundays ago there ap¬ peared «i conuiiunlcHtlon from »someone signing "Amigo dogli (liillanl." This was n well written, panegyrical, efflores¬ cent, poetical and Imaginative article, which, an essay, was interesting rend¬ ing. Tho writer «ays thn.Mhn ¿issubhIiih- tlon of tho chief of police of New Or¬ leans ? well worn subject. So It I«, but ? showed the hand of the Mafia, II nlso «bowed the cowardly treachery Inherent In Latin race«, Doe« ho think that the widowed mother of the young deputy «liBi'lff of Fairfax county, mur¬ dered by an Italian because ho was try¬ ing to arrest the Italian for Insulting young school girls by using Improper language toward them, thinks that Hal- Inns make useful citizens? Ho tri«·« In his nrtlclo to mako little of these things, hut It Is things like those that causo what Is known uh the negro problem, nnd allow mo tu «ay In defence of our negro citizen«, that as a ruce. twachery not prodonjtnnnt to the extent that It «mone Bailan», and îiegrocB have no Mufln. which our "friend of the Ital¬ ians" tries to have us overlook. My Utter Inspired by a letter to you by one Eliot Norton, of Now York, which renili' an advertisement of «omo Im¬ migration .soeietv. l firmly nwd, con¬ scientiously believe Unit any heavy Im¬ migratimi of Italia na or und kindred Latin raen will coiiKtItuto a «vriotis men¬ ace of our country of Ihe Bouth, "Aii-lco degli Italian!" does not refuto a slnele one of my sliitemcnt». I asked him to toll me how many Italian« In Richmond wero engaged In useful trade«, such as machinist a. carpenter«, inaeon«, brlck- lavora. and he talks about the beautiful blu« skies of Sritttliern Italy, she! Ihn Ilnlln.n's love of nature. Thn sanie might «pply to any tramp whose lov* Of nature, leads hltn to spend his' Mm« communing ¦wilt nature, shunning work altd begglne for food. I spoke nf the Mit fin und Black Hand societies, whose mission It Is to tmirrier those who have Incurred their enmity and Mr. Amico, says the pollen of Italy nro doing nil |n their, power to put It dnwn, but that It Is secret, while In some Southern commilnitlen tho lawlessness Is mntlo no secret of, nnd therefore that much inore demoralizing. Perhaps so, bul to my mind the shooting s'critpes In the South, whero the men tight each other fuce^ to fnco and In Hie open, nr« f/ir preferable to stabbing a mali In the hack, whero ho tins not one chance In a 'hundred. It Is nil well enough to talk about assimilating foreigners, but as a mutter of fact, tho inferior rncês have a most demoralizing effect upon the morals of »1. "community. Witness the dlfferene-e In Hie behavior of girls and women in the South, and those In the cities of the North and Wosf, which arc thronged with foreigners, We don't see drunken women stsggerlng along the street, here, nor women speak¬ ing to men on the street, ns you will see In Chicago, I'lillndelphln, Npw York, Asftp Mr. "Amico degli Italiani" speak¬ ing of Northerners considering them¬ selves "the grent. ? am," &c, ot course, you will Und a certain number of fools everywhere, but ns a rule those sottlerl "hero nrn modest nnd kindly ppople, a most useful class of citizens; and ono wo ought to encourage to come here In largor numbers. In many respects wo have much to lenrn from them, and we are not going to make nny great progress by "thinking we know It all. but in the ense of Italian immigration the facts aro- against the oncourag¿ment of such Immigration., 1" was in one of the coun¬ ties along upper James River not long ago, and the people there scoffed _nt the, idea of bringing Italians to settle there, nnd salti. If they came they would find a wn.y to/drive' them out. In con¬ clusion, I don't think our people the kind who will submit to having some¬ thing forced upon them that they don't .want, and the admitted determination of the Italian Government to colonize the South with their natives, will, ? hope, strike many a. snng bcfoçc It becomes an accomplished fact. ' Respectfully. JUVENIS. BULLET EXTRACTED. Dockery Doing Well and Bail Will Be Insisted On. * (Special to The Times-Dispatch.) RALEIGH, N. C, July 22..-Physicians, to-day extracted one bullet, from John Dockery, who was shot more than a month ago by Polldema'n Isaac Rogers,' because he "believed Dockery had betrayed, his sevehteon-year-old daughter. * The bullet was from the wound In the shoulder and was found Just tinker .the skin in front, where it had lodged after crashing through':' the shoulder from the rear and scatter-' Ing. the. '¿boulder' bones. It Is thought probable that It he recovers' he will to a considerable extent lose the uso of tho arm. The bullet In tho most serious wound, thnt In the hack, which passed dnhgerously near the spine' -and, pene¬ trated the lungs, has not bconNloctited, and ho Is still too weak to stand an oper¬ ation. The patient Is doing very well, but. Is not consltjerod out of danger. The question of the preliminari· lietir- Ing of Rogers, who has been Iii jail.'since. tho shooting, will come up' again Mon¬ day, and his counsel announce their -pur¬ pose to Insist on ball. Until now Dock- ory's condition hns been so precarious thnt the question of ball'could not be pressed. In the event ball." Is allowed there will bo no extensive preliminary bearing, examination being waived. MASHED TO DEATH. Boy Caught By Falling Tree and Instantly Killed. (Special to The' Times-Dispatch.) DURHAM.1 N.

Tainted Money.Edltor of The Tlmen-DlspatchiSir,.In an editorial on "Tainted Mohey"

In your Isbuo of the 18lh, you «ay, "To «itquietly by, while fortunes urn being Im¬morally picked up all about u«, and thento «corn to have anything to do with them(or, however, high a oaune, Is both short-sighted and tooll«h." What you «ay I«tnle, but you do not go far enough. Itfortune« havo, been thus picked up, It 1«cither becaueo thoro ar« no sufficient lawsto prevent It, or the law« are not properlyenforced. Such laws .can oly bo passed'when thorn Is a sentiment behind them,ni;d can also bo enforced only when theyare backed up by an educated popularsentiment.Tho universities and college« of tho

country ought to bo the places whero theyoung men of tho country are taught sen¬timent« of what I« right and moral. Willthey bo thus taught, when the head« ofthn&'o, Institutions, have received'largugifla from men. who aro known to havoacquired, their wealth by questionablemen p« 7As you say,· President Hadley, of Yfllo,

will hardly mako tiny remarks about Mr.Rockotoller, utter his Institution has ac¬

cepted a gift of a million of dollar« fromljhn. ¦»,'And to come closer home, In my vlovv,

the authorities of tho University of Vir¬ginia ought to have refuabd to accept thoÏ100.000 that Mr. Rockefeller recently gave

them, ; '--' ¡

When tho educated public sentiment oftho country noi only disapproves ot thopractices of Mr. Rockefeller and of other«of his kind, but demand that law«-shallbe passed to break them up, and whenpushed shall bo enforced, the day will notbe far distant when the-acquirement ofsuch fortunes a« Mr. Rockefeller's willbecome an Impossibility.But this will never be done a« long as

such men can «top tho mouths of thosewho should be leaders ot tho people by thegifts of large sum« of money, wlitoh theyhave unlawfully rwriing out of the bodyof tho people.

Anddoes Mr. Mills dominate the entire Coun¬cil? Can no needed Improvement gothrough when he oppose« It! By whatvirtue does Mr. MIUb arrogate' to himselfthe privilege of killing moasures înè'ed'odand long desired by the city? "Mr. Millsand Mr. Blair! It does scorn to some ofus that every move made hero for pro¬gresa Is at ottco taken In charge of andkilled outright or bulqhorcd and emascu¬

Richmond that ono or two .gentlemenhave taken tho old town in charge andhave decided Just what and what is notgood for It; Tho people Want llboralannexation. Nobody In town knows thisbolter than Messrs. Mills and .Blah·. Thepeoplo elected Messrs.
