Mr.. EDITOR Il see that you
claim Washington County as the Ban
ner County of the district, in saying
that. yoa 90 the good County Of
Buchanan injustice, she has but few
claims in this worlds goods or coInpli-
ments. but the one she rejoices III
most is that she was ever true to Nir>
ginia, in her darkest hours, and that
she is to-day. the Banner Conserva-
tive County in the State, therefore
render unto Caesar the things that are
Cp-ars.
Situated in the extreme angle of the
STATE with uGt one pubic highway in
the county. lis access Is extremely diff
.cuit, And during The late campaign
none Of the popular orators or candl-
dates updn The state Ticket visited
this far off county. All the speaking
that WAS had, WAS done by Col. . l..
Graham, Joseph Stras, jr. of iaZeWel,
J. w. McBroom Of Russell, who had
kind OF Conservative love feast at
Circuit Court, just previous to the
election, at which every radical pres
ent openly Joined the Conservative
party.
Too much credit cannot be given to
the efficient County Canvasser, l.. II.
Counts. who made 4 through canvass
of the County by his energy and the
intelligent manner in which he man
aged the canvass OF his county, he has
won for himSelfa reputation, as true
Virginian and Intelligent politicia,
that will 40 %. t1,r wa ded at ON
future period Uy me conservatives of
his county. Sahdlick Township gave
l43 votes, I42 for Kemper, and one for
Hughes, and that one 10y a negro. who
said that if Kemper and Hughes were
both white men he would vote for
Kemper, but that Hughes was col
ored man, and he was bound TO 20 for
his color, il being good joke, no one
attempted to correct his first impress
'On.
But TO the point. I take it, that the
votes given in proportion to the popu-
lation, is the base upon which to de-
eide. which is the Banner County.
Washington had in 1870. 1856, Buch
anan had in 1870, 377T. Washington
gave hemper only 1889 majority,while
Buchanan give 34l votes and only "a
for Hughes.
Can any other County in the State
beat it, if so let them answer. Buch-
apau claims the banner, if the State or
Conservative party has one, and |
think is justly entitled to it. So Mr..
Meade, | mean you, late chairman of
the Executive Conservative Commit
te at Richmond, just pack up your
traps and bring her along, and we will
give you the biggest Bear roast, Panther
stew, and Wildcat tear-down that
ever you staid ali night with.
Three cheers for Old Buchanan, and
