IT l. supposed by many that overconf-
dencc WAS the cause OF the democratic de-
feat in Virginia last fall: that the democrats,
believing the election Of Daniel assured, did
not avail themselves OF all the means at their
disposal for bringing ont the white voters
on the day OF election and that their delin-
quency in that respect was in great contrast
to the activity and energy ofthe Mahoneites,
who exhausted thcirutlnOst efforts to secure
Il full ncsrn Vote, and that TO that Delinquent
cy may be justly attributed their defeat and
the success ofGencral Malone 1t behooves
them therefore 10 be on their guard against
Iuakinga similar mistake next November. The
chances are ali in their favor, but neverthe-
less they should make such arrangements
as will preclude the loss of a single demo-
cratic Vote III any precinct in the State
The Mahoneitcs are terribly alarmed at
the prospect before them. for they see over
whelming defeat staring them in the face
and they know that defeat next fall means
the utter ruin and complete overflow de-
strGction and annihia,ion of their entire nc
litical organization, and that thereafter it
would only exist n an unpleasant memory.
They are already Iriuoralized, and all that
is needed to make their defeat an irretriva-
bic disaster is that the democrats shall vote
as one man, and That every man of them
shall vote

We are informed upon good authority
that a soon Is some minor matters now in
course Of adjustment are settled the eXteli-
sion of this road from its present terminus
at Round Hill to Winchester will be com
menced and actively prosecuted to compile
ton. This is all that is Immediately con-
templated. but the extension to the coal
fields will soon follow rs matter Of course.
Since the road has been in the hands OF
the new company the roadbed mas been
greatly improved. new rails and ties have
been put in wherever needed. and new pas
senger cars of the most improved modern
pattern have been secured. and fine new To-
comotives are being built for the company.
All this speaks well for the good faith and
| activity Of the parties into whose hands the
road has fallen, but the most important fact
Tor the people Is that the new company has
reduced the rates of freight from % to 80
per cent below the charges under the old
administration. Shippers are thus ena-
bled to send their produce by railinstead of.
as TO large extent they have been doing.

formed that the result to the company is a
large increase Of profits, and its managers
are assured that they can make more mon
ey for the company by low than by high
rates Of shipments. Obviously the best way
to break down q monopoly is to encourage
rival enterprise, especially when, as in this
case, the rival is so situated as that it can

GREAT ancestral estates in England. like that OF
the Marquis OF Westminster, whose yearly rev.
enue is itself immense wealth. are the result OF
centuries Of increase in land valuation The un.
accounted millions of the Vanderbilts have all
been accumulated within thirty years. Financial
kings OF Europe. like the Rothschids, have labori
ously acquired through four generations the prop
erty they hold. Jay Goulds hundred millions
have nearly all been acquired within eighteen
years. The tendencies which make possible this
difference between Old and New World capitalists
exist in uadisturbcd operation to-day and have
apparently grown powerful enough TO cut deep
dividing lines in the social plane Of the American
people.

is anticipated will this year be very large
This industry has been making exceedingly
rapid strides Most Of the canned goods are
shipped to the West. the local consumption
in this line being comparatively small. The
packing of oysters will not begin on large
scale until the fruit packing has come to all
end. While the retail oyster dealers and
eating house keepers are busily preparing
for the coming september, the wholesale
dealers are also busily employed getting
ready for the local trade. The oyster
dredgers do not begin work until the 18th
