To the Editor Of THE REPUBLICAN;

in to-day's REPUBLICAN, that he wants TO aid Re-
publicaDs who are candidates. Ifhe means to aid
Republican candidates for tho Legislature does he
not know that to do so he must stop his side.

Wlckham, who Is now an active Bourbon. The
regular convention at Lynchburg consisted of 15G
delegates out of apostolic 223. The boilers, in
Guiding Dr. Jorgenson, Dezendorf, and wickham,
had only sixty-seven. This oughtto settle which
side the Republicans Of Virginia were on but
when II Is remembered that Wickham, having
control OF the State committee had ruled out all
Republicans who had acted with the Readjuster
and more than one half havingso acted, before the
convention, twill be seen what miserable minor

use the high office he holds To destroy the colored
people who elected him. The Readjusters propose
TO put oolored juries to educate their chill.

THE ne ewspaper correspondents have be-
come unduly excited over what they feel
has been the illegal usurpation by secre-
tary of the Navy Hunt of an executive
action in placing Paymaster-G General
George f. Cutter, U. s. n, on the retired
list These young and enthusiastic news
gatherers should first know something of
what they write before giving it to the
PUBLIC, URiaf,eef'the law every officer Of
the navy retires from active service OH
reaching the age Of sfxty-two, and the
law is so mandatory that the retirement
effects itself, and no action of the Presi-
dent or Secretary of the Navy is required
at all. The only action ever taken in such
cases is that the Secretary writes letter
to the officer informing him that he is
then on the retired list, "having reached
the age of sixty-two years., This is done
SO as to recall the matter to the attention
of the subject, in case he had forgotten to
properly celebrate his birthday.

No Reputation of the Obligation to
Protect.

The NeirS and Courier, a daily paper
published at Charleston, s. c., in recent
editorial takes Secretary Window &C.
verely to task for calling upon his party
ain Virginia, the Republican party Of
"the country to support the Malone
candidates for office and do all in their
"power to defeat the Democratic Con-
"servative candidates, knowing at the
time that the sole point Of difference in
"tbem is The settlement Of The debt question"
The italics are ours, and they show
bold and most unblushing misrepresenta-
ton Of the issues in the great con-
test now going on in Virginia. The
great issue which has brought to
Gene raj Malone the sympathy and well
wishes of Secretary Window and so many
of the patriotic and just-minded people
throughout the country is honesty in
elections-"a free ballot and a fair
count" Their hope and purpose is to
terminate the sway of bull-dozing, tissue
ballots, and all other dishonest machi-
nations whereby the maiorities in the
South are suppressed and minorities are
enabled through election farces to
usurp the governments of the States
and menace the law and peace of the
country. 1t has not been long since the
Ners and Courier, with apparently honest
penitence, admitted the dishonest use of
tissue ballots, and this was followed up
by Senator Hampton with similar con-
fession and promise of "reform" from
his place in the Senate. Yet at the very
next election, that for Congressman from
the Charleston district, the inevitable
tissues" were ready to do their accus-
toned work, and were not used simply
because the Republican Congressman re-
lied upon his former election. Under the
circumstance the News and Courier should
bs too honest, if it were honest before, to
misrepresent to its blind followers the
true issue in the Virginia campaign.
1t is just as well for the Ne,cs and Courier
and the whole Bourbon" faction to
which it belongs to know that the great
Republican party of the country realizes
that it has toolong ignored the wrongs and
that it fully realizes the fact that tie
Southern methods of carrying elections
are subversive of the Constitution and OF
honest government, and cannot be longer
tolerated
In the presence of this issue the Vir.
ginia debt question is quite insignificant.
There is, however, much fitness
in a Bourbon journal of the re-
pudiating, debt" eliminating" and
tissue-ballot party in South Caro-
lima wailing over the coming fate OF
its friend and ally in Virginia. The in
telligence and manliness of Virginia
chafe under the Bourbon yoke, and have
resolved to throw it of. Free thought is
striking for liberty and honest elections
i'll Mississippi. The era of the shotgun
policy and the tissue ballot must end, as
that of the White Liner and the Ku-Klux
