THE REASON or IT.

The following quotation from the con-
,istent, independent, non-poIitical New
York Herald Of Monday, is the commence
ment ofan editorial article over n column
In length;
Now that the x.President has entered the
Geld as a candidate, no ought to hurry home
aud take care of his friends. We do not
mean. Of course, taking care of them in that
Iense IN which he will doubtless take care of
,hem after he is elected, IL he should be
elected; we mean that he should put some of
ais friends in safe lunatic asylum until after
he election,
1t is suggested that there are those among
It's Washington readers who, from the tone
Of its special Washington dispatches. to
say nothing Of its editorial articles, upon
the proposition of the majority of the Re.
publican party to nominate candidate fol
the Presidency to suit that majority, would
believe that there are one or more partie,
connected with that journal who are no
unfit subjects for a lunatlc asylum, did they
not understand its animus. 1t trauspire
that during the latter part Of the ex-Presi
dents occupancy Of the White House. tn,
Washington bureau of the New York Hc,di,
was not in favor there.
That this was on account Of any mis-
Ilaced confidence on the part of its Wash

SPARKS IRON the POLITICAL ANVIL.

One of the most dreadful crimes charged
against General Grant Is that his political asso.
Citations were such very improper ones. Aud
yet IL is now triumphantly urged that the
boys" are all against him; and the argument is
most strongly urged by the papers that usually
paint "the boys" in tho blackcst colors. 1t
will suggest the thought to thousands of minds
that it is very strong point in Grants favor,
if he really enjoys this particular sort OF un-
popularity Philadelphia Bulletin.
A Blaine Club has been organized in Wash

A Protest from Virgiuia.
WYrnEv1LLn, Va. Fob. II, 1885,


TO the Editor Of The National Republican:
SIR: A few suggestions to His Excellency,
President Hayes, through the columns of your
valuable paper, might do the Republicans of
the South some good. The South is repre-.
sented in the North as being Solid South"
that is, a solid Democratic South-which is
n very grave misapprehensOn. We are rep
resented as being almost n unit against the
North, by reason of the Democrats bull-doz-
ing and assassinatng the Republicans down
South. This is an error of the gravest kind
and damaging to the party, rs the strength of
the party is greater to-day than it ever was
before in the history of the Republican party
of this State. The policy" pursued by the
President in reference to the appointment OF
rampant, fre-eating Democrats to administer
offices which we think should be held by honest
Republicans down here, who voted and worked
for the election of Grant, Hayes et al, in the
midst Of all the political ostracism of those
times and who still live and arc as good and
true Republicans rs they then were, if not
| better-as to be Republicans has become a kind
of second nature with us-1 think has bad
effect We expect to support the nominee for
President, let him be whoever he may, SO he
| is IL Republican. good many of the appoint
meuts by tho President Judge Rives and
others have not given satisfaction to the Re-
publicans of this State The appointment oi
Democrats to administer Federal offices gives
| the Democrats almost absolute control of the
State, both State and Federal. The appoint
ment Of Ayres us supervisor of the census oI
the Fifth district of this State is by no means
satisfactory to the Republicans of this dis
trict and snch men being appointed and
given preference over good, tried and compe
tent Republicans has more to do toward dead
ening the ardor of Republicans of this State
than the intimidation of the Democrats OF tho
| Ku.Klux outrages of Louisiana and else
where. We have thousands of men in thu
Fifth district who voted for Grant ant
Hayes and proclaim it publicly, among whom
plenty of men can be found as well qualified
to take the census of the Fifth district as Mr.
Ayres or any of his sub,appontees, who, as
matter beyond the possibility of doubt, will al
| be Democrats.
We like true Republican Republican
South, as well as Il Republican North.
| REPUBLICAN OF WYTHE Co., Va.
