correspondence OF the ALIEN ANnRIA CiAZErTED
WHEATLANp, Va, Sept. S.--We attended
the big, readjustcr or coalition meeting, at
Lincoln, yesterday. We were not the only
| ones that went. Indeed there were several
! democrats who had business at Lincoln yes
terday evening and ii was well forG. w. H.,
county chairman, it was so, otherwise it
would have been Il thin meeting rs it was,
we arc sure that more than half the crowd
were not in accord with the speakers.
Mr.. CarterM. Louthan, of Clarke county,
was the first speaker. He commenced his
speech by reading IN extract or two from a
Richmond paper in condemnation of Massey;
thcn he told lis q story; then some more ex-
tracts, then another story then several ex-
tracts, and little joke, then Bear-(we
called 1t bare story and so on all about
Massey, and finally wound up with Hell
bending gully washing story.as we thought,
much 10 the relief of his audience.
The county chairman then, with most
grandiloqucnt eulogium introduced the Hon.
John Paul, Of Rockingham The Hon. John
delivered very pretty speech | might say
II regular circus speech. He created u great
deaf OF merrmcnt. made eyes at the darllies,
! talked negro talk for them, told one or two
good corn field stories and in fact was very
funny: hut we failed to see any logic in il; it
all seemed mere sophistry. He made some
statements and showed some figures, in re-
lailon to the blessings and benefits the read
IIE;iers had bestowed upon the State, the
people III common and especially the col
orcd population. In speaking specially 10
the negroes present, he compared Mas

LOGAN,

1t Is understood that the Senate Com
mittee which has the case of Fitz-John
Porter in hand has so far yielded to Mr..
Logan's p~rejudiced antagonism of the
pending bill as to strike out the clause
which authorizes the payment of Porter's
back pay. This is a strangely illogical
and inconsistent proceeding. Either
Fitz-John Porter is an innocent man or
he was rightly and justly sentenced. If
the latter then there is no excuse for the
adoption OF the bill restoring him to his
former rank in the army, but if on the
other hand he is innocent, if he has been
suffering all these years a punishment
which he did not deserve, if the Scoield
Commission was right in generating
him and the President was justified in
giving him the so-called pardon, what
excuse can the committee find for refus.
ing to recommend the payment of the
money which Porter has hitherto by act
of monumental injustice been prevented
from receiving?

THE HOUSE

The outlook is that the present will be
a protracted session of Congress. The
House is composed of 1913 members, of
whom it requires l47 to make a quorum
for the transaction of business. This
majority of all the members elected the
Republicans cannot muster, as the Dem
ocrats refuse to vote. The cause OF the
obstruction is the contested South Caro-
lima case. The Democrats are unwilling
to unseat a member who maintains the
Governors certificate of election. They
hold and believe that the contestlng
member altered the evidence taken in
the case to suit himself, and they do not
propose to be bulldozed in this way. In
the same manner any members seat
might be contested and the door opened
by a Republican House for arranging
the representation from the South to
suit themselves. The Republicans in
sist upon an immediate settlement of the
question. They are unwilling to lose the
influence of another member on the floor
and in the next political campaign. The
Democrats ask that the whole matter be
referred to a committee of investigation,
authorized to visit South Carolina and
take tas. the case. and Tins
~aoye the House OF the obstruction.
This deadlock is of great seriousness, as
the time being wasted is greatly needed
for pushing forward the General Appro-
priation bill. The fiscal year terminates
June 80, and appropriations to defray
the expenses of the Government for the
next fiscal year must be made by that
time. The Republicans are threatening
the Democrats with saddling the respon.
sibility of this embarrassment upon
them, and pretend that c~oercive meas
ures will have to be resorted to to pre-.
vent the Democrats from flibustering.
This they propose to do by amending the
rules of the House. The Democrats say
if they be denied the right to offer
motions to adjourn they will introduce a
resolution for the impeachment of the
Speaker, a motion for which he will be
bound to entertain. The stand taken by
the Democrats is just this: eff the
Republicans are to turn out our duly
elected man on perjured testimony, they
will furnish a quorum from their own
side. We will not help them"

GOT 1T AT LAST,

Kate Chase-Sprague, on the 9th of
May just gone, obtained a divorce. The
country will now breathe easier and the
Associated Press will have to lean heavier
thar ever on Mrs. Christiancy for news of
the sort that comes OF i'll concocted mar.
riages. She will be free henceforth to
run after Conkling and nobody will have
the right to interfere with a shotgun if
she runs after Conkling. In getting di.
vorced she secured the privilege of re.
Stunning her maiden name. She is said to
be a pretty, fascinating woman still, and
it may be refreshing for her to think that
in name anyway she is a maiden again.
Thus revamped she may 60 in for
new conquests. but it is doubtful if
even Conkling will pay her his former
court. Without the sprague to the Chase
the charm Of the stolen fruit may have
vanished, too.
