Richmond DISTRICT

Col. G. P. Ramsdall has been nominated for
Congress in the Richmond District by the Re-
publicans. Col Ramsdall came to Virginia from
Pennsylvania where he served in the Legisla-
ture that State, shortly after the wal, and pur
chased a farm in Surry county. He was ac-
companied by several families, and the first
thing they did was to erect school house and
church. He successfully titled the soil, intro
duced improved stock, and won the confidence
and esteem of all classes of citizens. He was
elected to the Legislature of Virginia, and
served in that body with credit to himself and
profit to the State. He was the Republican
candidate for 1t. Governor In 1878, on the
ticket with Judge Hughes for Governor, and
Judge Fultz, of this place, for Attorney Gener-
al About five years ago he was appointed U.
S. Marshal for the Eastern District OF Virginia,
which position he now holds He has made
an efficient and acceptable marshal, and in all
the relations enjoys the confidence of those
who know him. Should he accept the noml-
nation, he will poll the full strength of his par
ty, and would probably draw some strength
from the more moderate of the opposition. He
would make a practical and useful member of
Congress should he be elected. His most for
midable competitor in the convention was
Mr. Mr.. S. F. Maddox, Of Manchester, gen
tleman oftalent and unusual political sagacity
Now let the Republicans Of the 3rd District
go to work and elect their nominee. He is
worthy of their support and would make the
metropolitan district the best representative
it has had since the war. He could and would
do the people of that district more good than
any one they could elect.

Jewell on the Result.

THE VIEWS OF THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CHAIR
MAN LATE LAST NIGHT.
Ex-Governor Marshall Jewell, Chairman of the
Republican National Committee, in company with
Congressman Henry Bingham and Charles O'Neil
dropped into the Press Office last midnight. The
silver-haired and ruddy faced ex-Postmaster Gen
eral was as jovial as ever.
Governor he was asked, ssWhat have YOU to saw
about this Maine election %
'Well, came the reply as the National Chairman
leaned comfortably back in his chair and pulled
contentedly at cigar, 81 have not had the same
confidence in Republican success in Maine which
has been enjoyed by most of our head politicians.
My d1strust was excited by the warning letters 1
received from Senator Blaine and from stump
speaker that had sent from Hartford participate
in the Maine campaign. Senator Blaine has at no
time claimed the State, but the contrary he has
written several letters to me stating that we had
before us very hard fight and unless the business
men of the country became aroused to the danger
that they might wake up very much astonished at
the defeat which possible on the 18th OF Sept.
This was the uniform tone Of Senator Bla1nes let
tiers. Another thing which made feel less conf
dent of uccess in Maine the warning received
from Capt. o Farrell, the stump speaker whom sent
from Hartford. He had mingled with the leading
classes Of Maine, and he wrote that the busi-
ness boom which prevailed in other parts of the
country had not struck Maine The great business
of Maine is ship building and there has been moth
ing doing in this of late The business interests OF
Name angu1sh did those Of the rest of the coun-
try four years ago. and many of the people there
feel the same desire for change which prevailed
elsewhere during the business depression. Some Of
the most sanguine Republican politicians have felt
for some time that the party over-conhdent,and
even before the Vermont election so good politi-
clan as Wm E. Chandler of New Hampshire urged
me to sound note of warning. l believe the result
in Maine will arouse the business men of the coun-
try to realization of the dangers of possible DEM
ocratic success ana will lead greater and more
effective work than would have been done without
it,"

upon the political contests in other States %

unabated confidence and fresh energy The chances

Our friends the enemy" are continually
talking about republican hatred and sectional
ism. And yet in all their speeches they never
fail to exhaust themselves in the most unmeas-
ured abuse of their opponents. The TRADES
against Gen'l Garfield are silly in the extreme.
In the first place they are utterly false, and the
men who repeat them are either woefully ig-
norant, very thoughtless or wilfully mean, In
the second place no one who reads believes
them. They ought to disgust sensible demo-
Gratis. Nobody has ever yet been converted
by such arguments, and it is very probable
that nobody ever will be. But apart from all
this, as matter of policy it does seem that
sensible men should see what great wrong
they are doing their section. Republicans feel
confident that James A. Garfield will be the
next president. Democrats must agree that
such an event is possible, not to say probable
Now in case the republican party does succeed,
is it reasonable to suppose that Gen'l Garfield
will feel kindly towards those who have de-
nounced linn as thief perjurer and scoun-
drel? Isn't such bitter and objectionable abuse
inexcusably silly when one reflects that it can
do no good, and may be productive of much
harm? Should Gen'l Garfield be elected it
will certainly be to our advantage to have a
friend rather than an enemy in the Presiden-
tial chair, and it is not rational to presume
that he would be disposed to favor those who
have so unsparingly denounced him. To hon
orable political warfare we do not object, but
the miserable tactics of most of the democratic
politicians will react with telling effect as sure
as the sun shines. And the reaction will af-
feet the people of this section disastrously,
