The summer has not been on the whole an
uncomfortable one. We are two-t thirds through
with it and can find additional reason for
cheerfulness in Mr.. VennOr's predictions, for
what remains of the hot season. His schedule
Tor the weather in August is freely inter
spersed with such agreeable phrases as "cloudy

prophesied, and one mseasonably cold one,

back upon hi, people, and race and

"When 'bolter' claims TO be Con-

conscience void of offence? There must

not be so completely Gu both sides OF

According to the reporter ofthe Pail

Philadelphia, in speaking ofthe Virgins
campaign.
THE political outlook just now is

WHY shoulda Shenandoah man vote
the mixed Mahoneite-Republican tickets
Because only the worst elements OF the
Republican party will support the
mongrel tlcket9
Or is 1t because the Mahoneitc party
expect to destroy the vote OF the white
people of the Valley with negro votes
bought also much per head ?
Or is it because this mongrel party is
in favor of letting the negro of Eastern
Virginia vote without paying his capita
ton tax, which they know must be ex'
torted from the farmers OF the Valley =.
Or is it because Malone proclaimed
himself a Democrat and voted over enc
hundred times for Republicans against
Democrats
Or is it because they promise to set
tie the debt-questiOn. when every man
who has gwen the subject any attention
knows that this mixed partyis only
using the debt question as hobby on
which they expect to ride into office :?
Or is it because John Daniel has q
"pame" leg caused by wounds received
while CALAMITY fighting IN defense OF
Virginia?
Or is it because demagogues circulate
the report that John Daniel Is opposed
to the public schools, when they know
that he has been and is now a warm
friend Of the public school system, and
has voted for every measure intended
to aid the schools?
ar is 1t because petty Offices have
been promised to a number OF fourth
rate neighborhood politicians who no"
circulate the wort kind Of campaign llesi
Or is it because the great mass OF in
tellieent democrats Of Virginia-meu
who have been democrats under all
circumstances vote the regular Demo-
cratic ticket upon which are the names
os Daniel. Barbour and Mckinney ?
Orlsit becauee it is necessary Tor
the Democrats Of Shenandoah to eat

1879, commonly called the Henkel
Act, the amount apportioned Nov.
30, 1879, was S459,515.95," and
page 90 he says, that, "Dec. 8,

portioned the sum CT $504,672a5."
This shows that $173,354.31 more.
have Scen apportioned to the schools
than the Wing of 1879 said there
would be under the bill. This,
however, is in keeping with state
ments generally made by that jour
nal.
1t is said that under the Henkel
Bill the schools only get three
tourths of the money TO which they
are entitled. This assertion is
either the result of ignorance, or Of
willful perversion of facts. The
schools are only entitled TO the net
amount collected and not the gross
sum assessed. The interest on the
literary fund, the capitstiOn tax,
and ten cents OF the property tax
are dedicated to the schools in the
Constitution. Neither the capita
ton tax nor the property tax is ell
collected-hence the bill, which On"
ticipates the fund, only provides for
the apportionment Of three-fourfhs
of the gross amount due the schools.
Reference to the tax books will
show that nearly one-fourth of the
taxes assessed for school purposes
are not collected-hence the nee
essity of appOrtioning three fourths
OF the amount in ddUancs.
That the measure was a re-adJus-
ter measure Is not true, That l was
a re adjuster in 1878. 1 shall not
deny; and assert that | am re.
adjuster still. But l am no re-
publican. Nor will endorse or
support any uniou or coalition with
republicans under the disguise OF
re adjustment to republieanize Vir
ginia. The debt must be settled,
but l will be no party to any
measure that will advance the inter-
est Of the radical party.
Very truly yours,
