at the wings, as Is NOW probable, should
keen possession Tor another year OF the leglsla
ute OF Virginia tins cannot be considered as
lest Of The political character Of the state. In
voting Tor members of the House OF Delegates,
he lines of party politics arc not so definitely
drawn IN that state as m many others. Besides
IN the state elections, trcchoder can vote IN all
different counties IN which he ownes farms which |
gives the Wigs a considerable advantage the |
majority OF undholders being OF iha, party. la
the election OF President, however each ciuzen |
votes but once.
To show that n failure 10 elect majority Of
the House Of Delegates, IS no proof that the dem.
ocnuc party has not majority IN Virginia, and
We need only refer to the elections OF 1892.
In Apul of 1882, tue election of members Of
the House Of Delegates resulted IN the choice of
fifty five members friendly to General jackson,
and seventy nine OF the opposition, a large MAJOR
of the latter party; sufficient If these local cleo.
tons IN Nucina lormel any test, to do away all
hope of obtaining The vote OF the state for Cen
cnl Jackson.
Vet when the time Tor the au,umnal election NJ
tycd. when the contest was between Jackson
aud Clay, and party distinctions were strictly Oh
served, Virginia gave en immense majority Tor the
democratic candidate. The vote for jackson
vas $500, that Cor Clay, ll,i5l, making n
majority Of more Than rwrNTl-rwo THOUSAND
IN favor Of the former. After this, no man can
say that the success of the wings IN electlng a
majority IN the House OF Delegates, decides the
political character Of Virginia.
