But ono week remains Of the campaign IN
Virginia During that time the closing lnbors
Of tho contestants will increase the excite
mcnt which now seems TO embrace all classes
of citizens In the State, and deepen the inter
est Of outsiders 10 the result. The campaign
began with the nomination Of an unohicc-
tionable ticket by the Republican, at Lynch
burg, and the subsequent nomination by the
Democracy at Richmond Of ticket selected
and arranged TO meet the requirements Of
certain railroad interests. The platform
adopted by the former was so comprehensive
in It's provisions for the welfare and progross
OF the Commonwealth that the Democracy
could do or say nothing to improve upon 1t In
that respect But II was not the intention OF
the Conservative managers that even tho
slightest effort should he made To place the
party before tho people in the attitude Of re-
form. They were satisfied ut the outset Ia
rely upon the prejudice Of the white race
against the blacks to rally the voters Of the
party to the support Of their railroad ticket.
So far as they could they made tho campaign
a war OF race against race, and their speakers
were instructed to declare that II Il not 90
much Of contest between parties as between
white men and black men. The mennest kind
of prescription was attempted against white
men who allied themselves In any way with
the fortunes Of tho Republican party. No
yilincation was too vile, no falsehood too
gross for them when they began their attacks
on white Republicans. Even the Richmond
Wing became so thoroughly imbucd with the
spirit Of persecution that II reprinted column
after column Of editorials from tho Richmond
Erdnincr, ascribing them to the pen Of Col
Hughes, when 1t Is known that he Is not III,
author Of single one Of them. The sam,
paper, under the promptings of such Gran
Democrats rs Col. Mostly, attempted TO mis-
lead the people with statements that the rail
road ticket received the sympathy Of thu
National Administration. In short havin.
no principles which they dared to adyocat,
in public, and no basis upon which to fount
arguments, the Conservatives have bcoi
compelled to go through the canvass thus fal
without advancing u new idea or suggesting
u new thought. The Republicans, on tn,
contrary. have been enabled TO so conduc
their part Of the canvass rs to enlist the sup
port OF hundreds and thousands Of new re
cruits In every section Of the State. Thcy
not only had the advantage Of platform
pregnant with progressive ideas, but Of his
tory Of Conservative rule In the State prog
nant with disregard Of every vital interest o
the Commonwealth. They also had the ad
vantage Of freedom from oil faint Of corrup
ton in the management Of the party and 0
the active support Of the National Admins
tratiod. 1t Is not, then, to DO wondered a
that the sham Conservatives arc beginning
preparations for defeat. No better proof Q
these preparations can he required than tina
which Is furnished In the publication Of tn
sensational tales about the Clarkson-Fowle
affair, aud the false deduction thcrefrom tina
Colonel Hughes is ineligible.

The Generalization which our Cousorva-
tive friends expected would follow the publ
cation OF the lie concerning the connection
Of Col. Robert W. Hughes with the Clsrksou-
Fowler difficulty has proved an abortlos.
The effect Of that publication has surprised
the Conservatives and astonished the Re-
publlcans. Instead Of injuring Hughes II has
had the contrary effect Many persons have
been heard 10 declare that they are unwil-
ling TO sec so mean an advantage taken OF q
man. and that they " III now vote for Hughes,
whcrcat before they were going to vote for
Kempcr. We have only to elect Hughes and
he will take his scat.
As tho campaign draws 10 close we arc
more firmly convinced of our ability to carry
| the State for our ticket 10 fact, we have
never doubted tho result II VIC could prevent
cheating by the Conservatives. Such STOPS
have been taken as will guard against u as
| much as possible. Some OF our canvasscrs,
among whom arc prominent Hughes aud
Ramsdcll, have been, and are still doing
magnificent work. Tho Hon. j. B. Scner, Of
| Fredericksburg, also deserves special mon
ton. Although called by business 10 Cali
| forna early In tho contest, since his return
he has made asplcndid canvass Of his district,
and has made more speeches, even in the short
time hc has been engaged, than all the reei

How IRIS DoNr. There Is many a
city and town that will appreciate the
following: One mandatory employ
ing a hundred men will support an adj
ditional 500 people. These hundred
families will di-burse annually, on the
average, $500. $4,000 in the aggregate.
This money will be drawn into the town
from the outside. where manufactured
goods are consumed. and the interest of
this $4,000 ut ten per cent. would be
$500. These hundred families, too,
would require n hundred houses, thou
sands of pounds Of agricultural produce,
and thousands Of yards of cotton and
WOODEN goods, thus giving health and
impetus to every branch of industry.
