SHORT SPEECHES FOR THE
CAMPAIGN!


At least here in Virginia we beseech our
speakers in this campaign to make brief
speeches. AS general thing, ninety-nine
out of hundred speeches delivered in a
political campaign could be taken by an
experienced newspaper reporter and short
ened just two-thirds without damage to
the effect. If there was only one man in
the State who was informed on the subject
in dispute, and that was the only chance
his hearers would ever have to hear it dis
cussed, there would be some reason for all
hours harangue, but as speeches, and good
ones too, are as plenty as blackberries, and
the voters will have numerous opportuni-
ties to listen, the long orations are simply
bores, and what is more are fruitless, their
length destroying whatever good points
may have been made in them. 1t our ora
tors, especially the younger ones, could ap-
preciate the shudder with which an old
stager hears them say that they have ''pre-
s,ared'' for an occasion they would have
mercy. Every speaker ought to be prepar-
ed in the sense OF being informed about
what he is going to try and inform others.
but he ought to be able SO to condense his
preparation as not to talk the patient to
death. Those to whom the duty of can
vassing shall be confded this campaign,
will find Che situation exceptionally pleas
ant, the audiences sympathizing and enthu
siastic and with sucha feeling of victory as
hasn't existed in Virginia fortwenty years;
so for the love of Heaven don't bore them
into anathY

THE iSTAUNTON POLICE.

On Tuesday evening at the Council
board Mr.. EVANS made the very incautious
remark that in view of the ineligibility of
the Chief of Police, under certain ordi-
nance, he is not to-day policeman. For
fear that such a. remark made publicly
at the Council board by city legislator Of
such long public service, that he might be
supposed to know what he is talking about,
may mislead the public, we may say that
both Messrs. PECK and FLETCHER are
legally qualified for policemen; that there
is nothing in the charter of the city dis
qualifying them, and that their election by
the same body that passed the disquali-
flying ordinance settles the matter Of their
eligibility. They are policemen in every
sense Of the word, and cannot be removed
by any process of law, or action of the
City Council, except for misconduct in Of.
fee, until their terms shall expire. II the
Council were to elect their successors to.
morrow they could not maintain theil
rights in the courts. This is the law OF
the matter, SO that any man who may be
misled by the ignorance of Councilmen
into attempting to ignore the official char:
acter of these officers, will only get into
trouble.
