While the national contest, in It's
has almost entirely over
Swallowed matters ofspeeial interest
to the people of this state, it is very
necessary that they should consider
the nature of the constitutional
amendments upon which they will be
called to vote at tn, presidential cleo
ton. While we would prefer to vote
on each separately, the Legislature
has denied us that privilege. 1t looks
very much as if they desired to defeat
the whole batch. We, however, think
there is some good in the amendments,
especially in those which provide for
a reduction in the number of mem
bers of the House and Senate, and for
Biennial Sessions of the Legislature.
We are heartily in favor of any
! amendment which will aid in giving
us the power Of paying our debt and
preserving the credit of the state.
In substance these proposed
amendments are:
l. To exclude from voting persons
who have been coviote6 of petit
larceny.
| 2 To strike from the Constitution
the provision requiring registration
| of voters.
I 8. Reduction of the number o.
members of the House of Delegates
from 1872 to not more than 100 Dol
less than 80.
| 4. Reduction of the number O
members-o the Senate from 43 to not
less than 32 nor more than 49,
This reduction to go into efec
after the Tuesday succeeding the frs,
Monday IN November, 1879, under al,
apportionment 10 be made by the
Legislature.
| 5. An apportionment to be made
by the Legislature at the regular
session next preceding the Tuesday
after the first Monday in Novemb Der
1879, or sooner, and in 1891, anc
every tenth year thereafter.
| 6. No person holding a salaried
office under the State Government tt
be eligible as member OF the Genera
Assembly.
7. Biennial sessions of the General
| Assembly.
! 8. Members of the General Assem-
bly, to receive salary.
The sections proposed to be added
to Article 5. and to be numbered %
and "a, are:
l. That the Legislature shall have
power to provide for the government
of cities and towns, and to establish

Gen. Hayes has not yet accounted

Hhis written replies to the father of
the dead soldier are characteristic.
First, he never knew the young man.
Second. He knew him, but the
young man never deposited any mons
ey with him; Third, the Young man
did deposit the money with him, bnt
he gave it back. As il was known
to be in the hands of Gen. Hayes at
the time the young man died and as
none of his friends have since receive

Whether Gov. Hayes should be sug-

Or all the electioneering schemes
which have been inaugurated by the
radical leaders, none have so marked
the desperation of the party as the
proclamation of the President in ref
erence to South Carolina. In this act
the President has fully demonstrated
the fact that by the influence of some
corrupt means the office of the presi-
dency has been so degraded that he,
the highest officer in the land in Or
der to aid the radical party, now re
dered desperate by the immediate
prospect of defeat, does not hesitate
in an official manner to promulgate a
proclamation based upon assertions
which he and every intelligent man
in the country knows to be false. II
the proclamation has any effect it Is
to eonvice the people that Grant, the
mere tool used by corrupt politicians,
has disgraced himself and the office
which he holds Gov. Chamberlain,
having armed the negroes of South
Car lima with improved weapons,
fully expected this measure to pros
woke the whites to resistance But
failing in this he issues a proclama
ton calling upon the clubs to dis
pense. AS the people were not as
sembled in clubs, but were attending
to their usual business as were the
people Of Virginia or Pennsylvania or
any other peaceful state his proclama,,
ton had no effect. Next we hear of
unarmed white men being shot down
by armed negroes. Even these out.
RACES failed to create the disturbances
which the radicals had expected. In
order to accomplish their purpose,
they next call upon the tyrant at
Washington for aid, and he after
making assertions which he knew
were false calls upon the white peo-
pie to disperse &c. and Immediately
aders troops from the various posts
to South Carolina. The soldiers of
the army, we have every reason to be~
leive, are superior in every quality
requested the true man to the COM
mander in chief, and this measure we
have reason to believe will fail.

The Rev. E. r. Phelps.

The Rev E. P. Phelps. who came
into the Valley as mixture of the
Presiding Elder and politician, and
succeeded in making his name i'm
MORALLY infamous by his attempts to
steal church property under the forms
of law, is now canvassing among the
coiored people of lower Virginia in
behalf OF some carpet>bag OF radical
candidates for congress,
The sincerity Of his huge preten.
sions may be exposed to the satisfac-
ton OF the more Intelligent coloree
people by reciting little incident in
his career i'll these parts Here he
was very sond in his protestations of
love tor the negro, and yoeiferously
argued HIM the equal of the white
man in every respect. On one coca
sion he stopped at farm house III
Augusta county, where he was snugly
stored away for the night in one OF
the best bed chambers. The gentleman
OF the house told very clever colored
man who was working on lls place
that he might put Phelps pretensions
to the test by going to bed with him
The colored man unhesitatingly
agreed, and after preparing himself by
proper care of his person, procee ded
to the room and disrobed for the
night. Phelps, on discovering his
color, protested very vehemently
against sleeping with ''nigger," and
when his determined bed fellow insists
ed upon his equality, and stated that
he too, had permission to sleep in that
bed. Mr.. Phelps proceeded to reha.
bllitate himself, slid down back VIM
dow to a porch roof, followed a COL
ume to the groand, got his horse from
the stable and took his final exit from
the Valley. The colored people here
have laughed at Mr.. Phelps equality
doctrine ever since.
This is absolutely and unqualiGedly
| true of the Rev canvasser and ought
to be given out among the audiences
! he appears before in his new field.

Republican View of VfrgInia's Debt.

The Ta0ey Targiseiaa administers
rehuke to the Democrat for its want
of courtesy in presenting ''tacts.
We suppose the Virginiam under
stands that the Democrat and Herald
are now one and the same. We an
swer then through the new medium
that simple presentation of facts
should not be esteemed 1lscourteous.
AS we never deal in anything but
.Jaots it would require some years OF
training to accustom us TO the courte-
sizes of the profession from republi
can point of view. We did say thai
the Tsr9inian editor either knew
better or was utterly ignorant of the
facts when he stated that the debt ii
Virginia was being augmented tvs
millions year by interest default.
And SO candor would compel and
charity suggest that we should sa,
again were it not for the VSrgisiaa's
explanation to effect that it holds our
State liable for West Virginias share
of the debt. But even from this
standpoint the Virginiaa might have
gotten quarter million nearer the
facts and still employed Ground num-
bers. However we a~e glad to
know the view which the republi
cans of Virginia take of this public
debt question. Virginia is trying to
pay the two thirds which she assum-
ed to herself, and her creditors accept
the situation by asking no more of
her. They further attest their since
rity by holding Virginia securities at
sixty FIVE to seventy and disposing of
West Vireinia's at ten to twelve.
Now that the organ of the republi-
can party steps boldly to the front
and claims that Virginia is constitu-
tionally bound for the whole debt,
and appears to be armed with case
law to substa t ate its position, we
may know i'll advance the designs of
that party upon the taxpayers of our
State. 1t never occurred to US before
that they complain Of the funding
bill be cause it gets rid of onc-third of
the debt illegally. They have been
creating the impression very gener
ally that their hostility is because it
created new obligation to pay even
a part of it. Now we see it all. Not
content that Virglnia's debt has not
increased in the ratio of debts of
Southern States under republican
control, they would add fifteen mil
lions and thus avoid distasteful co,o-
parsons between states under conser
vaIlve and states under republican
government in the South since recon
straction. It is good idea, worthy
of republican shrewdness, bat we>con,
TESS our surprise that the astute strad-
ing politician (pardon the courteous
quotation) should have uncovered the
bug under the chip just at this time.
