MAKE 4 FEW SUGGESTIONS
concerning tho manner OF using tile.
!. Always secure good outlet.

suits can be SECURED. Within reasonable
limits, however, tho more fall the better.
3. Outlets should bp secured 80 rs 10 nvoll
the possibility of cnttle trcaAinE on them, and
means should ba provided to prevent Tug n
sk,lnks, muskrats, a,,d the like.
4. There Is difference Of opinion as to

Hendricks or Jewett.
RICHMOND, June |. lSSI

RICHMOND, June |, 1881.
Editors Dispatch: Your article on Mr..
Hendricks in the Dispatch OF Yesterday
will beread with interest by the friends and
ad1irers OF Governor Hendricks In VIr-
ginia and throughout the South, who are
neither few in number nor obscure in posi-
ton. As you say. Governor Hendricks is
as sound on the financial questions OF the
day as any Democrat who will be placed
before the Cincinnati Convention. At least,
that is, we think, the opinion OF all the cer-
tain Democratic States and nine tenths OF
the Democratic voters. Indiana. which
will present rs her candidate Governor
Hendricks. is tbs only certain northern Dem
oerailc State, and it Is by the untiring labors
OF Hendricks, voorhees,, and Mcdonald
that she has been redeemed from Republi-
canism. Hendricks is a native OF Ohio :;
immensely popular there, politically aud
personally. His feeling toward the South
and Virginia is well known. He is our
staunch friend. With Hendricks for Presi.
dent, and that accomplished lawyer and
true Democrat GARRISON n. Potter, OF New
