Angus Mcdonald, deserve The thanks Of Fir-
ginia's noblest sons for their independence in re-
probaling the man and Inc means used 10 poll'ue

We have received the Isl No of the "Uniied

To the Editors Of TIC Enquirer:
Yoak TowS, April so.
We have met the enemy here, there and every
whore and they are ours Bayly has beat South
al, and that TOO. on this and The other Shore more
,han double The majority he gained over Garter;
DESPITE the lond warnings oil the Wings anu
their candidate, whoprided hiinSeton Clay smalo-
ritv in this district Of $50 last November; despite
OF the fact admitted by thcm on all hands, that
they had now selected the bst sced in their sta
Rio who was fleet and OF untirins bottom, and 10
Kick and bolt he would not and could not-ol
course when beaten MIR il was forever, or Al
least for some years 10 come-how stands the re-
,ult2 Garter, who they said, was FESTIVE and
would kick al The pinch Of The HILL beat This
Jim crack horse almost every where, and that
100 when he himself. and others Tor him, had
been claiming 500 majority in the district for The
superior swt,nesS of this Stced over his brother
Wing last Spring. Let MS compare some, il mol
all. Of The pos-and we will begin al The home
stead Of the gallant and ever successful Bayly
Carriers vote in Accomack in 1914 was il2;
Sonlhalls in 1915 f00-gving Carer swilness
OF loot over him II votes.
Garter obtained ,! majority over Bayly in
Northampton in 1911; Bayly beat Sorlhall in
This county in 1873 voies--hrowng Sonha
thereby oS votes behind Garter.
Carer beat Bayly about 80 votes in Lancaster
county last Spring; Bayly beat Soulhal there in
I 1915 II votes.
Bayly got about $50 majority last year in
! Northumberland; this year, l3S majority.
In Gloucester and Matthews, he got increased
/ maorilies over his opponent this year,
In York county, Soulhalfs majority is ~
where Rayly got last year II majority over Car
ter. This is SoulhaIl's birth place, and here ne
was enabled by Democratic votes TO overcome
/ Claws vote OF majority last Fall. This and
/ Williamsburg are The only two places he beat
| Claws vote, whilst in Warwick he obtained 40
maiority-3 short Of Clay; Carriers majority
there was mol more Than ) or 6 last Spring.
/ In Gloucester county. Clay got l. majority ;
Carer more than thar, about l7-whisl Bayly
bea! Soulhal there in 1915 % majority.
In Elizabeth City, Clay got9 majority; now,
Bayly has % majority over Sonthall. Bayly got
there last year some few majority.
AT Lancaster, Clay got 80 majority; at North

AL Matthew'S, Polk got GO majority now, Bay

In New Kent, Southall got % majority, where
CLAY got IS last Fall, and Garter that number
last Spring. She and Lancaster changed hands
to Bavly's benefit
In Charles CITY, where Garter resides, he got
over Bayly $50 majority last Spring, whilst
| Cay's majority las. Fall was lG5; Souhall, this
Spring, got there only 10 majority over Bayly.
| So that. the sci unbeaIen horse, Thomas II
! Bayly, has passed the swilest steed in The Wing
stable % on this Shore and 2l0 on The Eastern
Shore--when Garter last Spring beat Bayy s
votes on this side, and Bayly beat Carter lO4 on
The Other side. Rayly's majority then lOl, now

majority in the district Will not this suffice for
! Whissery, Federalism or whatever il may be
Justly called from its principles? Names mean
nothing bui the nature which the name imports.
As the r. Wing has la.ely shown, II is not The
long ears that give the name ass, but The ma
ture Of that beast By The way, here we have
the verifcaIion OF the trile, but very true adage
when rogues fall out, honest men get their
dues" Hence the strong and loud pulls and
praises OF that paper and its editors upon our
party We NAV expect soon 10 see "Conslitu-
iional" again placed al its head. But all in vain;
il is only the coaxing Of the lion TO the lamb
take it for what il is worth, and no more. IL IS
ominous of good when ones enemies praise
him-and "when thou doest well for lhyseli, men
will praise thee" saith Scripture also, Let not
pride or sin be exalted, for it must and will have
lis FILL" Let US bear our hlushing honors, show
cred thick upon us, in all due humility and graft
tude 10 Him who rules and reigns in The hearts OF
men.
