CHESTER A. ARTHUR, Republican
candidate for Vice President, ha
given to the world his letter Of &C
ceptance, which is much NOR
vigorous and outspoken documen
than that OF Parson Garfield. II wa
undoubtedly written by his creator
Conkling, today the most brillian
man in the Republican party. In re
gard to civil service reform the lette
says: "The resolution referring {,
the public service seems to me deserv
ing Of approval. Surely no maj
should be the incumbent Of an office
the duties Of which he is for an,
cause unfit to perform, who is lacking
in ability, fidelity or integrity, which
a proper administration of such offic,
demands" This is pretty talk for ,
man whom President Hayes kickec
out Of the Collectors Office at New
York, just year ago, tor gross cor
ruption, dishonesty and unftness
This endorsement of Hayes course i
more than could be expected from
such source. Ii is a candid comics
SIGN that his removal was right, and
that he was lacking in ability, fidel-
ity and integrity" A confessed Grim
inal, and yet the Republican caudi
date for Vice President Surely it j:
time that the American people should
rise and Us one man demand change
in the administration OF the affairs of
this Government, by hurting from
power the party that for twenty years
have striven to disgrace it.
So FAR as we are able to find out
Judge M. II. Owsley will have no
opposition for Circuit Judge at the
approaching August election. The
Republicans are aware of his great
popularity, and are satisfied that it
would be worse than useless to pit a
man of their party against him. The
fact that he has no opposition should
not keep Democrats from the polls,
but every man should be at his place
to compliment him with as large
vote as possible. This is the year for
the election of President, and the
greater the maiorities in August, the
greater they will be in November.
Mr.. X. c. Warren, for Common
wealths Attorney, has opposition in
the person of Col. Silas Adams,
and while we do not consider it formi-
BILE by any means, it will not do
to take anything for granted. Mr..
Warren is man of irreproachsble
character, fully capable of perform
ing the duties Of the Office, aud it is
the duty of every Democrat in the
District to turn out on election day
and see that he gets the full vote of
the party. 1t is the programme for
the Republicans TO holly contest for
every Office, therefore if you value the
grand old doctrines handed down by
Jefferson, see that you are no: caught
mapping.
JERRY LII.LARD, Of sweet Owen,
is candidate for Congress against
Joe Blackburn, but he wont bother |
Joe much If the people sat down ON
him as badly everywhere as they did
at the Lexington Convention. There
the Honorable Jerry mounted chair
and attempted to deliver himself Of
speech that he had been cogitating
upon for some months, and which he
no doubt thought would electrify the
assembled multitude, but the a. m.
would have none of it. Ii alternate
" cheered, Missed aud h0oted at him,
until Jerry, losing all his temper,
snapped out, "You are lot Of vulgar
towards and poltroons." when he
climbed down from his chair and,
with disgust pictured on every Inca
nent Of his countenance, took his
'eat. We understand that Joe is so
'ertain of success that he has deter
mined not to make any canvass Of his
district, but will devote his time to
Ipeaking in the more doubtful dis
riots of the State.
THERE is no show Of compromise
,stween the Democrats and the Read
listers in Virginia. A well informed
authority says that, even with the
division that the two sets Of Hancock
md English Electors will create, the
'egular Democracy will have enough
'otes and to spare to carry the State.
The Republicans are reioiced at the
o-called split there, and are making
very effort to widen the breach. Let
he true men Of the State, who value
Is reputation and who seek to keep
ler in the proud position she has long
stand to their colors and all
will be wen.
