dersd them in the past. He had no pledges to
make, for born and raised in this county and
having served the people for the past twelve
years In the Legislature, he felt that no pledges
would be necessary from him to assure the
people that his interests were their interests,
and their interests were his. In reference to
the leader of our state tibket, he said
that he was personal friend Of John W. Dam

soldier, an able lawyer. and q learned jurist,
but because he was every inch noble. true
man. His remarks were received with hearty
applause, and from ell We can learn, never be-

that Cameron, and every one of his lead

Conservative Democratic party of the
State and enlisted his men for the work.

to catch the unwary and advance their
own shameless schemes of selfish ann

of the State were to come forward now

of the State at ten cents in the dollar
they would never consent unless they
were given guild pro quo for the bar.

Daniel, the Friend of the laboring man

John w. Daniel scorns to be mem
Der Of any ring. He does not desire to
boss any body. nor does he want to be
an auctioneer to knock down the votes
of Virginia freemen to the highest bid
der. He is democrat, pure and unde-
filed, and he is q friend Of the laboring
man. We will mention three acts Of
Maj. Daniel, which should prove to ev-
cry man who has to work with his
hands to make his living, why he is en-.
titled to their respect and their support.
First. He was the author and pro-
mOter of the act on the statute book of
Virginia, giving to the laboring man
preferred lien upon work, stock and
equipments of railroads, &C., for work
done, thus securing to the working man
his hard earned wages. He recognized
that the laborer was worthy of his hire,
and that the man who earned his bread
by the sweat of his brow should not be
kept in the back ground. but should be
placed first on the list of those to be
paid.
Second. He was the author and pro-
moter of the act giving to the wives and
daughters of those who had been killed
in railroad accidents the right to sue the
corporation for damages, SO that, hav-
ing lost their protector and support,
might at least recover something to
ward off want and hunger.
Third. He was the author and pro-
moter of the statute making the proper
ty of railroads and canals liable to taxa
ton, thus tightening the burdens OF the
people.
Maj. Daniel is the thoughtful friend
of the people. His friendship takes the
shape of practical legislation for their
benefit, and he deserves their fullest
recognition and support. Every labor
ing man should rise up aud call him
blessed Winchester Nea0s.

no more sincere mourner of the death of
President Garfield than his antagonist
in the last presidential campaign. Gen.
Hancock's conduct and bearingthrough-
out has] served to heighten the public
respect for him. The relations between
the two rivals of last year have always
been pleasant. It will be remembered
that the last official act of President
Garfield before he was shot was to sign
an order promoting Col. Mitchell, of
Gen. Hancock's staff, to an assistant

my. He accompanied the official docu-
ment with letter to Gen. Hancock
written in his own hand, conveying the
most cordial expression of friendship
and esteem. It is singular fact, which
has never before been made public, that
at the very moment when the President
was shot Gen. Hancock was writing q
reply to President Garfield's kind letter,
conveying to him the most cordial eX-
pressions of regard. The letter was
about half finished when the General
received telegram announcing the |
shooting. He left it unfinished, and it
yet remains SO. It is Gen. Hancock's |
intention at the proper time to present
President Garfield's letter and his own |
unfinished reply to Mrs. Garfield as
mournful momento of the kindly rela. |
tions that always existed between the
two rival candidates for the presidency.
