FRAUD ULENT REPRESENTA-
TIONS

The "Valley Virginian" of yesterday
says that sit has been more than intimated
that if the councilmen will allow them
selves to be voted for at the primary cleo
ton, they will be chosen as the represen-
tatives of the Conservative party" Who
ever made that statement to any old coun-
Gilman, made fraudulent representation.
There is no ring in the primary election =,
and there is no man in Staunton who can
give any assurance of any one being
sschosen the representative of the Conser-
vative party'' at the Primary. Amy Con-
servative can give the assurance that an
old councilman will be uoted for at the
primary. There are several of them, if
their names were on the Conservative
ticket, that most of us would like to vote
for; but any man who pretends to give in
timations in the way of fixed fact, is a
fraud. This is a free election by the peo-
pile. and there are plenty Of good men to
choose from in the city, outside of the
cOuncil

THE PROPERTY QUALIFICAT TON

THE PROPERTY QUALIFICATI ON
Mr.. ROBERT G.. BIcKLE, the most pro-
minent Radical in this section, announces
himself a candidate for the Mayoralty of
Staunton. With his politics there is not
a corporal's guard of white persons in
Staunton who agree, but few who urge
that his Large property interests would
make him a good Mayor. This is not a
very popular argument to urge man for
office on, and is not likely to recommend
itself to poor men and men in moderate
circumstances, to whom the sugges ton
that mans large property entities him
to office, is not palatable. But aside from
the popularity of the thing, let us examine
its merit. The mere fact that man owns
q large property Ill a city .loes not give him
q greater interest in its prosperity, any
more than man being six feet high gives
HIM greater interest in the health of the
community than his neighbor who is four
feet five. The interest of y man in a city
is shown not so much by his possessions as
by his activity. He must be in the ad-
vance in public activity, not following be-
hind, getting the profits of it in the way of
house rents, and bank profits which eat up
public Industry. He must not be mere
camp follower in enterprise, mere tax
gatherer of the community. AS far as we
know, Mr.. BICKLE, who now applies for
the votes of the people Of Staunton, has
never been at the front. When the propo-
sition WAS up to give property for the G. &
y. r. r. shops, by which several hundred
laboring men would, it was hoped, be added
to the community, he voted against it.
When more recently an organized move
ment was attempted by public meetings at
the Town Hall to induce manufactures, he
was. as usual, absent These are speci-
men cases of where public-spirited man
ought to appear.
There is no possible qualification for the
Office of Mayor possessed by Mr.. BICKLE
that the Conservative candidate, whoever
he is, will not possess. Without knowing
who it is to be, we will guarantee that he
will be a man of position in the commu-
nifty, fully identified with its interests, not
a property holder so great that his pro-
perty interests OvershadOw and drain his
poorer fellow-citizens, a man of education
who shall be able to fifty represent the city
on State occasions, man who is a favor
ite with every class Of respectable people.
both in business and socially, and a man
fully qualified to discharge the duties of
the Office. What objection can reasonably
be made to such man?

only six out of the ten appointed having
consented to serve, have reported their

IAN EFFORT TO RETAIN THESE
GENTLEMEN IN OFFICE"

A writer in the last Spectator" makes
a happy hit when he characterizes the
movement to elect the old councllmen in
office as ian effort to retain these gentle
men in Office" It is not that there are not
men In the city as wise in head, as deeply
interested in pocket and as deeply disin-
terested in their desire to serve the people
as the old councilmen he names but be-
cause they should be RETAINED in Office
And why? Because these gentlemen are
entirely familiar with all the details OF
the public improvements now in pro-
gress." They are indeed Messrs. ABBY,
EVANS and WITZ were SO ''entirely famil-
iar'' with the water works now in pro-
gress that they, for mon tbs, made persis-
tent effort to pay $50 900 to strangers for
work that is now being done by our own
citizens for 1000. 1t is familiarity
that came near costing the people $4,000.
Messrs. EVANS, HoGE, FUNKHoUsER and
W1Tz were so 'entirely familiar" with the
Main street improvement that they voted
to throw four-fifths of the cost of impruv-
ing their property upon the public aJ large,
and Messrs. EVANS, ABBY. T1TZ, FUNK
HoUsER. HoeE, KA4sER and BAsBY
were so '.entire!J familiar" with the po-
in September last, voted Radical Mayor
into Office over 2 Conservative.
The correspondent seems to think that
these things have been done without
compensation, in which case we can see
no better compensation" than to allow
such fierce ''disposition to devote their
time and attention to those improvements
and interests" to remain at home for a
season. They have earned a furlough and
should have it.
It is not possible, in the many names
that among the large array of useful and
prominent citizens in Staunton, there can
not be obtained gentlemen who are not
open to these objections. 1t is strange
case that appeals should have to be made
to retain men in Office who have proved in
efficient Look at two of QUIZ principal
streets for two years kept in an almost i'm
passable state, and, just on the eve of an
election being patched up; and then think
how ''important' it can be to retain such
a Council. Look at the City Finances! Go
to one of the principal officers of the city
the City Engineer, who, out of $1,000, has
only received five hundred in money. Go
to the school teachers, paid off in script,
even in such a petty way for change, that
one piece reads, due Mfss---fftyc cents"
Go to the laboring men who have carried
script in their pockets day after day until
it could be traded off at heavy discount.
You think possibly that this might be a ne
cessity. Not so! Money can be raised.
When the Council wanted to pay one of it's
members $9,000,th bonds were easily forth
coming and the money la loan can be con-
tracted to pay one of its members, but no
loan to pay the laboring men who carry the
script III their pocket came out of them.
Look at the hawking about and traficking
in the city script to pay taxes. Look
al the whole middle and mess OF the city
government, and then think whether such
an ''entire familiarity" with incompetency
does not rather merit rebuke than an eff
fort to retain it.
