THOUGH THh COMMENTS upon til"
REPUBLICAN, in its new dress are i'll
the main favorable yet there are some
defects which do not please us and
which we intend to remedy. So much
dead space at the head Of the front
pagr was caused ny an error III cutting
the rules to suit the old head which
was much larger. This mistake can
and will soon he rcmedird and the
blank space will be rt-lurel. As to
the head itself there are conflicting
opinions. Some think it is too short.
some that the letters are too small and
others that they are too black, This is
one Of the things upon which We cannot
all agree, but We feel gratificd that
there is only on" opinion in regard to
the general appearance of til" EEPVB'

We can safely promise that the ap-

Reading Malone Out

Those Democratic organs that have
been claiming Malone as Democrat
ard now denounce him az II a"'traltor
and accuse him OF trcachery TO their
party, seem strangely to have aorgotten
that the National Democratic Commit-
tee took especial pains at Il certain stage
OF the late Presidential campaign to re-
cognize the Sebt-payrrS, SO called, as the
only real Democracy Of Virginia, and
read Malone and the lteadjaa,ars out Of
the party. The committee kicked him
clean ont, and Ben Hill tried his Level
host to kick Malone in again, and pro-
cet4led TO ru4f and curse him 'becau~' he
wouldn't he kicked in. II there is any
other proof wanted tbat Nahone is not
Democrat, it can be found by looking
over the csmpoSiti0n of th~ Virginia
Legislature aud the action of that body
in the rlecton of officers OF the Lrgisla-
tu.,e and also OF State officers Here are
facts whichcanno; be successfully con-
trrvert,d. The Legislature ot Virginia

total ~. Df the Republicans, there were

26. The So-ca|led drht-payerS had two
majority in the Legislature, and the
Republicans held the balance OF power.
The Question was, which sid. would
they vote Nith---th" lsOurhonS who had
disfraprh,ei them and broken down
the public school system, or with the
EssdiWster$ who had promised IA pro
fert every man, white or black, III his
right to vote as he pleased, and who
promised t. educate the people" Il did
not take majority Of the Republicans
Ion. to decide which party to ally them
selves with, and they went to the Read
nsters. not that thny wanted to reFu-
diate any part Of the state debt, but be-
Gauss. they wanted liberty, prosperity
and education. The Read juSt"rS aud
Republicans then organized both the
Senate ana the House, dividing the Off
reA, some OF which were filled by colorrd
men They did the same thing with the
State officers and Judges in the coun-
ties, and elected Malone Senator against
the persistent, continuous, bitter urpo-
sition Of the Bourbon Democracy, and
finally Malone and his party associates
were rcpndiatcd by General Hancock
and the Democratic National Committee
As no longer Democrats having any
rights which "Drnocrats are bound 10
respect, During tn" halloting for
Malone in the Virginia Legislature
there were none who claimed to vote for
him as a democrat, and consequently |
hp betrayed no trust in voting in the |
Senate TO organize it in the interests of
the Republicans. The Efforts Of tn"
BOurhons to either coax or drive Malone |
back into the Bourbon Democratic camp |
is allowable and legitimate, but to claim
that he Is a Democrat after he had long
ago turned the Bourhons out of his party
is ridiculous. He makes no prctrnSions |

Fast Trains.

There seems to be disposition
among the leading railroad officials to
foster the fast-running policy. Inns Is
perhaps result OF the formidable COM
petition that now exists on the leading
trunk lines. A prominent official OF
one of the lines centering here, while
discussing the subject yesterday in
gossipy way, gave it as his opinion
that the Inauguration of the fast-run-
MING policy on the trunk lines would
doubtless be followed by many If not
all the leading roads of the country, all
of which are now in better shape, ne
believes, to run trains at a speed OF fif-
tv miles per hour than they were flt-
teen wears ago. While he deprecated
reckless railway travel and believed
that it should be discontinued by all
corporations, he believed that the
growth of engineering science during
late years had been so far advanced
that increased speed nowadays was as
| safe as it was practicable. He pointed
out whore the American roads are no"
capable of making as good time as tina,
of the best of the English schedules
but frankly admitted that the schedule
average in this country is below the
English average. He holds the opln
ion that. considering its great territory
America should at least equal the En-
glish average, and thinks that presen

White or Brown Bread.

The earliest agitator in the matter
observed two wears ago, when travel |
mo in Sicily, that the laboring classes
there live healthily and work well upon
a vegetable diet, the staple article OF
which is bread of well-ground wheat
meal. Nor are the Siciilans by any
means the only people so supported.
s.The Hindus of the Northwestern
Province can walk fifty or sixty miles
day with no other food than 'chapat-
ties made of the whole meal, with
little .ghee,' Or Galam butter. TURK
ish and Arab porters, capable OF cary
mo burdens of from 400 to 500 pounds,
| live on bread only, with the occasional
| addition of fruit and vegetables. The
Snartans and Romans of old time lived
! their vigorous lives on bread made OF
wheaton meal In Northern, as well
as Southern, climates. we find the same
thino. In Russia, Sweden, Scotland
and elsewhere, the poor live chiefly on
