The Readjusters OF Roanoke are for

venti0n the writer has conversed with a
number of the leading Readiusters from
different sections OF the county, and has
not met Nth one who is not earnestly OPP
posed TO the Malone electoral ticket.
They say that the Readiusters OF Roanoke
will be about SOid for the regular ticket.
So far the writer has been able TO hear OF
0nLy for ReddjuSterS in the county who
have pronounced IN Iavor OF the Malone
ticket.
In Roanoke, Craig, and throughout the
Southwest many OF our best men were Re
adjusters, and 1t must follow that they VIII
not allow themselves to be arriyed against
the great Democratic party, and that almost
the uhoie Of the ReaGusters in the South
ives. will support the regular ticket, and
that most earnestly.
Prominent Readiusters here say that they
want no fusion-that the Conservative
ticket is fusion ticket, and is the only
ticket which the Conservative Readjusters
want.
have thought proper to write you the
above, because we are much clated bv the
stand which the Readjusters are taking.
They mean business, aud they are deter

We agree with the State that every Dem
ocratic paper in Virginia ought TO keep the
names OF our party electors at the head OF
its columns. We have not been in the habit
OF putting any candidates names at the
head OF our columns. no matter what the
offices for which they were running; but
we determined week or two ago to hoist
the names OF the Democratic electors to the
head OF our flagstaff Just as soon as the
vacancy occasioned by the declination OF
General PRIDEMORE should be filled. We do
not desire that there shall be any confusion
OF names; and If there is any other Demo
crat who intends to dcclne let him do so at
once. We are for a full ticket OF true-blue
Democrats.

Yes, we did say, "if the MCCuLLocH bill
had gone into operation" intending the
phrase to mean not only "if the bill bad
been app owed by the people OF Virginia"
but also, 4" if the bondholders bad accepted
it at once and in good faith" We had and
still have the very doubts which, as the
Whiq saws, we expressed last fall on this
latter point. SO far as the people OF Nir-
gina were concerned the rejection OF the
MCCULLOCH bill was the most unwi>e thing
they could have done. So also as to the
bondbolders. They had all the year 1879
in which to accept the terms OF that bill;
and we regret exceedingly that the whole
debt was not refunded, and the States an
nual interest on her public debt reduced TO
less than a million OF dollars. The people
would willingly have acquIesced in the set
Element had 1t been completed; and there
would now be no division worth naming in
