Daniel and the Schools
JOHN w. DANIEL, IN HIS SPEECHES AT
HARRIsoNBURG AUGUST 18TH ;
NEW MARKET, AUGUST 18TH; AND
WOODSTOCK. AUGUST 10TH.

The statement that am opposed to
the public schools, by whomsoeyer
made, is a Lieut. cut Of the whole
cl 9th. 1t originated with and has been
circulated by those who tell the truth
by accident and speak falsehOOd by
habit. AS member Of the Legislature
of lsG9-'7O l helped 10 establish the
pu blic.schOol system, aud during
service Of seven years in the Senate and
House of Delegates [ have consistently
and persistently voted for every mea,-
ure which, in my judgment, would
secure them full appreciation, and
maintain and aup.fy the system.
[ was an earnest advocate of the Hen
kle school bill, which has done more
for the schools than any other single
measure. The Coalition party, which
was in full power during the last session
O. the General ASSEMBLY, atteSted their
respect for that excellent Democrat
m easure BY leaving it unaltered in tie
Statutebook. and by off ring nothing in
substitution for it.
Endorsed by all parties, it is an
q ,hievement of which the Democracy,
who iathered it, may we'll be proud.
am not opposed to, but heartily in
favor of, The public schools. Two reas-
ons alone suffice 10 confirm this opinion
first, they constitute the cheapest
system Of public education which the
wit OF man can devise; secondly, they
furnish tbemost certain means of edu.
cation, opening the doors to all races
an all classes alike, and inviting them
to come and drink Of the water ofknowl
edge freely,
1t is falsely pretended by the COali-
ton party that they reopened two thOus
and schools which had been closed
The Democratic measure known as the
Henkle school bill and the reduction OF
the amount Ct coupons received annual
ly furnished the funds 10 reopen them.
The Democratic School Board applied
them. The Coaltionists did nothing
but let the funds 90 whera the Demo-
Gratis designed they should 90.
1t is equally false that the Democrac
ever diverted dollar OF The school
money.
The coupons which intercepted it for
a number Of years were created by the
original funding ac. A majority Of the
Democrats IN the General Assembly
voted against that act. and l, at that
time, representing Campbell and Lynch
burg in the House Of Deleg atss, rOted
against Il. ......
The Republicans gave it tie suppoI
which passed 1t.
The Democrats subSe1u Up cal
ed it, aud when the repeal prov. +
fectiye, und@r the decisions OF the . .'e
and Federal courts, they devised IL
put in force the measures which have
secured the school fund, enabled arreArc-
ges to be paid, aud put new life and Y
gor in the entire system. I
| stand upon platform aud repr esen
a party which pledges itself to suppor
and maintain the schools. My person
al opinions entirely accord in that vie
If | am elected Governor OF the State, !
will do my utmost to foster and proicc
the schools
What more can any friend of the sy
tenn desire or ask? Es.

THE Indian medicine man beats up
an an old dun TO drive away disease.
His remedy is about as effective as was
the effort Of tie Mahoneites last court
day 10 win converts by beating on three
bass drums and hiring three bands TO
blow for them. 1t will take more
blowing than that 20 get the Democrats
Of Shenandoah TO follow Billy Malone,
the so called democrat that voted 40
times for Republicans.
DID you expect Malone TO DO any,
thing else? asks the MahOneltes. We
answer, no. The man, that got up The
assis ant Republican ticket last year,
was expected to vote for Republicans,
instead of Democrats. That is the rea-
son we took 10 stock in lis bogus
Democratic ticket.
How these over conscientious tue
blue democrats that could not support
Echols because, they said he proposed
to vote for Wicham republican. in
stead of Malone, democrat, now
cheer fer JnO. +. lie sis, the bltteresl OF
radicals. They can swallow Mihone
the man that voted 80 times for Rec
publicans.
BILLY MAHoNEis in favor of abol-
ishiOg race distinctions, so long as
Sambo has a vote that will keep him in
office.
Do you want to vote for true Dam
ocrat, one that has always been dem
ocrat and whose interest Is identical
with your interest Then vote for Capt.
j. G. Nen. He will faithfully repre-
sent you in the Legislature.
WE wonder whether the Mahoneltes
will make another investment 10 Brass
Bands. Better save that money 10
buy votes, for you will need many
thousand before you can place the white
people of the Valley under the control
of the negroes Of Eastern Virginia.
THE Mahoueites Say Capt. N,f is
a good man, but they can't vote for him.
Capt. Neff is not willing TO sacrifice tie
interests Of the Valley 10 that Of the
negroes of Eastern Virginia.

The Pawn-Shop.

China knows all about the pawn-shop,
and the uses of that dubious establishment,
But their monetary transactions are con-
Quoted in manner much more favorable
to the borrower-that is the public-than
among ourselves. Not only is the interest
charged less than one-half that paid here,
but the care taken in storing the articles
pledged is much greater. Indeed, it is the
usual practice for people to send their win
ter clothes to the pawn-shop on the appear
ance of spring, and their summer garments
when the cold north winds begin to blow.
They are in the habit of doing this, not be-
cause they stand in want ofmoney--far from
it; they may be at the moment at the
height of attluence-but simply because the
the pawn-shops afford the safest, most CON
venient, and generally the best wardrobe
they can procure. Not only do they obtain
the advantages of this depository without
payment of rent, but they have also the
use OF Il certain amount of money, which,
us q rule, they are able to lay out at con
siderably higher interest than that which
they have TO allow to the pawn-broker. That
the arrangement does not tend to the undue
advantage of class of .usurers, but really
beniits the community,is proved by the re-
suit for, although China has been called
1.-THE land pawn-broking, there are fewer
unredeemed pledges there than in any
other country. Thus, the impecunious
Chinese have all the advantages attaching
to pawn-shop, with none of the inconven-
fences which people in other lands endure

4 Timely Wa ming, or the Experience of II
Minister.

If you suffer from general debility,
brought on by too close application to bust
ness and excessive brain work; or from in
croasing prostration and sinking spells, that
even rest or removal of the cause will not
relieve, make haste to do as did a reverend
friend of ours. He secured from his drug
gist n bottle of Browns Iron Bittcrs, having
heard of its merit from n physician, who
told him not to take any other Bitters or
Tonic, for with the exception of Browns
Iron Bitters, they all contained alcohol,
and had failed to give his patients lasting
relief; nor should he take any other prcpar-
ton of Iron, for, with the exception of
Browns Iron Bitters, they all blackencd
the teeth, and often gave headache which
Browns Iron Bittors never did but in fact
cured headache. The effect was most salts
factory; he Immediately realized wonderful
results. His old energy returned, his nat
ural force came back, and he felt himself
altogether new man, full of health,
strength and vigor, and he has continued
to remain so ever since. Now he recon-
mends Browns Iron Bittcrs to all his
friends which we unhesitatingly do to all
our readers Globe.
