yative organization, that gained a
victory over Radicalism; we agree
with it. In the last campaign in
Virginia, Governor Kempec made
the statement, in his political cam.
paign, that the contest was one Of
race, the white contending for su-
premacy in the government over the
negro. This issue was accepted by
the people, and Virginia,s true to
their manhood and pride ofrace-
redeemed and disenthralled their
State, from theruinous rule Of Rad
icalism. Many prominent men who
had affiliated hitherto with the Re.

conservatives and assisted in. the
contest, when it was announced
that it was one of white VS.. black.
