WHY WAS IT DoNE2

We took occasion the other day to make
the inquiry why the Virginia Republican
State Convention had been called at Staun-
ton, point several hundred miles away
from the geographical centre Of the State,
and supplemented it with the remark, in
substance that this distance of travel yir-
tually excluded those from the delegation
who were not opulent. To this our good
friend SPIrZER, the secretary of the Repub-
lican Executive Committee of Virginia,
takes some exception, and attempts to
reason away the geographical fact pre-
scented by showing that "Stnunton on the
" first vote had ii votes; Lynchburg, 3 /;
" Alexandria, 3, aud Farmyille, 1-Slaunton
receiving two-thrds Of the vote Of a com.
"mitteo, a majority of which WAS composed
8" of non-oiice holders Accepting this as
n truthful statement, it does not in any
degree meet and answer our inquiry why
the State Convention was called hundreds
of miles away r1m the geographical
centre Of the State, thus sub
iecling those living east of the centre to in
creased travel and expense TO attend as
delegates. No answer is made by our moni-
torial friend that solves the problem which
weighs upon the public mind, what consid-
erations of comfort, economy or necessity
threw the State Convention over the noun
tains, and almost into West Virginia, when
The State has a geographical centre aud a
eapital which are more convenient and less
expensive to u majority Of the Republicans
of the State. If that information had been

THE Chicago Times is very Democratic in
its views and opinions, but somehow it does
with much sympathetic warmth. 1t goes
Off on that matter in this wise:
Blessed is the Washington stenographer, for
lie coineth his own notes into legal tender, and
waxeth rich by the sweat of DAN VOORHEES,

goes forward with his exodus committee
gathering more cuffs than halfpence, and his
steuographer gets his $40 by way of per diem
and his twenty cents for each 100 words re-
ported, whereby the sum total of his daily
compensation is $50 or whereabouts Sweet are
the uses of the exodus.

A TECHNICAL objection in the appropria-
tion made by the last Congress for the sup
port of the Reform School of this District
prevents the accounting officers of the Treas
ury from paying out tue necessary moneys.
Senator HARRIS, from the District Commit
tee, reported back formally OH Thursday the
House joint resolution making the proper
appropriation, but it was objected to and
went over under the rules. We trust there
will be no unnecessary delay in its passage,
MS the institution is now absolutely destitute

ing, nevertheless, TO be again informed that

infer that said nominee must be somewhere
in the western extreme Of the Old Do
