FOR CONGRESS-7TH DISTRICT
HOW. JOHN n. H.aRRTS
A gentleman we'll known in the southern


part Of this State-M. E. Harmon-pur-
chased plantation in South Carolina in the
year 1868. In 1869 he paid thereon $40
in taxes. In 1870 the taxes were S183.-
In 1871 the taxes were $40. For the
year 1872 taxes to the amount of 81 900
were levied on the plantation, whereupon
Mr.. Harmon abandoned the property .-Neao
YorA; Exchange.
If there is by any possibility any Farmer
or Mechanic or any other citizen of Virginia,
who by any chance thinks of not voting
for Greeley let him read the above state
ment. 1t is as well to talk plainly about
this matter. The only hope that the Radi-
cal party has of carrying the State of Vir
ginia within the next twenty years is in the
assfection from the Conservative ranks of
those who won't take the trouble to 20 up
and vote the Conservative ticket at this cleo
ton. If they could reduce the Conserva-
tive majority this time they would at the
coming State election nominate an ''inde
pendent Conservative who despairs of OBJ
tanning office from his own party and would
make an organized and tremendous effort to
carry the State. Can any man imagine a
greater disaster to the State than for its coz
troll to pass out of the hands of the Conser-
vative party A greater disaster to his bus
mess? A greater disaster to his land A
greater disaster to every interest he has as
citizen? Laying aside the love and honor
with which every man is supposed to re-
gard his state, certainly with which every
Virginian ought to regard Virginia, and
just talking over the matter as one of bust.
ness, pure and simple, is there any farmer
in Virginia rich enough now to afford to
have his land rendered worthless by such
taxation as a Radical state government
would impose? The extract at the head of
this column shows one of the business effects
of Radical government. 1t is the result
of having negro government It is no
use lodging the term, for a Radical State
government is negro government. No man
who is elected by five thousand negroes can
do what four thousand Of those negroes disap-
prove. Every farmer in this State next
Tuesday has the privilege of going to the
polls and voting for Greeley, who is the can
didate Of the citizens of Virginia, Or staying
at home and letting lis absence count for

first step towards putting the State govern.
ment in the hands of ignorant blacks and
corrupt whites. Now he has hand in lay
ing his own taxes. Then he would have.
neither part nor lot in it, and would be help
less to resist system Of robbery and taxa
ton which would reduce him to beggary.
