Is there any doubt in any reasonable
mind Of the spirit Of the party towards the
people of Virginia, if the Almighty should
see fit in his wrath to deliver us into its
hands
It is impossible to sum up in newspa-
per article the irreparable damage Radical
government could do every interest Of the
State. In South Carolina three professors
Of the State University have just resigned
because negro student was admitted, and
yet the last governor Of that State promised
the people that such thing should never
occur They havn't the power to keep their
promises. The appointment of boards of
the University and Military Institute and
the State Agricultural College arc in the
hands of the Governor Of Virginia, and a
Radical Governor would appoint Radical
boards, and RaGi:al boards would adml
negro students 1t is use: - ev the
question, that is th,, lies it would !Fav as
| it has travelled el scHhere.
And now as to the national question there
is none involved in this campaign, and we
can only know that the nation would rather
see Virginia thriving State as she is. than
cast down to the ground @ scene Of poverty,
turbulence and bloodsbed
A BID FOR CIVIL VAR IN VzR-
GINA.
II our people want their own county
judges elected by the legislature last spring.
and do not want to have them displaced by
Radical legislature and Radical judges
elected in their place this winter ), as the
estate journal" at Richmond says its party
will do if it succeeds in Virginia, let them
turn out to the polls and elect our ticket by
an overwhelming majority. Here is what
the Estate journal" said last March
"We can assure them (the Conservatives
beforehand, that if the Republican party
carries this State in the November election,
the General Assembly will convene on the
first Wednesday in December, and compel
the attendance Of those who purposely remain
away, in spite of all these wisps Of straw by
which one legislative body seeks to tie down
another. State Journal, March, 1873.
And here is what it now says:
ssWe do not assume to speak for the next
General Assembly of the State, nor to indi-
cate what action it should or should not take
in any given premise. But should that bo-
dy be Republican, as We have every reason
to believe it will be, there is no question as
to the duty that will devolve upon it, of
meeting on the first Wednesday of Decem-
Der, electing the next county court judges,
canvassing the vote for the several State
officers elect, choosing the other State Off
GERS as constitutionally required at its hands
and performing such other duties as the or
ganic law makes it necessary that its men,
bers should do before the LIST day Of January
next"
This is home thrust at the people. Turn
out and save your county courts
n RADICAL DISASTER - OHIO
GONE FOR THE DEMOCRATS.
The Radical party met tremendous
disaster in Ohio last week That State
which gave Grant THIRTY-SEVEN
THOUSAND, majority elected Allen,
Democratic Governor, aud DEMOCRAT
&c LEGISLATURE. In Pennsy lvania,
which Grant carried by 1877, 738, the Rad
icals last week only elected their Supreme
Judges by $4,000. Iowa, vhich Grant
carried by 6o,37O, the Radicals barely car
ried last week, land in Oregon, the Democrats
carried the State electing their congressman
by gain of SIX THOUSAND The les
son taught by the election makes the cleo
ton in Virginia sure, if indeed it needed
any assurance. 1t shows that the men who
voted for Grant are " u voting the Ra ical
ticket II. the Moth, AMI shows the supreme
folly Of the negro party in this State count
ing on the voies of the men who refused to
vote AZ all 10 til. Press entail election, and
thereby ave the State to the Republicans.
This is week of joyful news 10 the Com
say natives, and next week will be better
still, for then We will thrash the Radicals
here at home.
