The Democratic State Central Commit
tee met in Richmond Wednesday and took
new departure; this time on the road OF
practical common sense. 1t learned from
the enemy. 1t called no convention and,
wiser than the enemy.i designated no can
didate. This leaves the field open for vir-
glnia Democrats to vote for the Malone
candidate for Congressman-at-large and
Federal District Attorney John s. Wise or
to vote for that deadly opponent Of Maho-
nisn1, John E. Massey. If any one wants
to know low much Malone really fears
Massey he has only to read the six columns
of frantic denunciation of his manifesto in
the Richmond Whiq Wednesday. Here
is an extract from it,:
"The concluding sentence Of the ''manifestO'' is
plain adaptation from one Of Guiteau's addresses,
and emily excites the loathing which must ever arise
at the spectacle of vilainy attempting to cloak its
atrocity in the garb Of holiness"
The Whiq seems to be panicked on the
first fire. From now out, Capt. John S.
Wise viii have the most disagreeable trav-
cling companion in Virginia if be and Mas
sey arrange programme of jeint-meetings
throughout the State.
We congratulate the Central COMMITTEES
not only on tho wisdom Of its action, but
on the brief. direct and straight to the
heart OF tho Virginia people words in
which it gives the reasons for that action:
Resoloed. Thatin the Judgment of the State Con-
sentative Democratic Committee it is inexpedient
to nominate a candidate for Congressman at-large,
either through the instrunentality of State Con-
yention or otherwise since the param cunt object Of
Tescuing the State from the eyzs of B0ssisna and
Stazscart Malone Repabtica,aisn, may best be at
tanned without such action. @~3t -
We italicise the above because that is
the whole and sole issue for the Democrats
of Virginia in this campaign. The Com
mittee have described it exactly.

G. Il. The Ne,os says:
But the most of the speakers remarks

He claimed that his sons had worked for

of it. Being asked if he did not mean that
his son had worked in the capacity of a
teacher of colored school, the speaker ex-
planned that he did not refer to that son
but to another who had worked in the

man got the floor and accused Mr.. Cries.

Mount Airy and Broadway Streets.

The attendance on the board of public
works meeting yesterday afternoon was unu-
sually large, the subject matter that caused
the interest being the grading of Broadway
and Mount Airy streets, more particularly the
latter. Everybody was there protesting and
wrangling about it. Among the attorneys
present were Messrs, Davidson & Williams,
Mr.. Pierce and Mr.. Allis. The people all de-
clared that the improvement was undeslra-
BILE, costly and of no good ct all,
but on the contrary very injurious
to property in that locality, much of which
was left so high mp as to. be really valueless.
Considerable testimony was taken, and some
of the witnesses testified that the streets
named were really impossible for teams. One
testified that before these streets were "im-
proved there was no trouble in hauling wood
up there, but now the wood dealers refused to
deliver wood to the people who live up there
for the reason that they could not haul itup the
hill, over the streets as they were improved. )"
Another witness testified that he attempted
to drive up the hill with sewing machine in
the wagon and got stuck SO that he had to
take the machine out and carry it up the hill.
James 81. Davidson stated that he got stalled
in attempting to drive up there and gave up
the attempt to use these Improved"
roads. The atmosphere in the
room was very hot and the
discussion was animated. This matter occu-
pied the attention of the board most of the
afternoon, and was not, at last, disposed of,
but was continued for one week, when another
interesting may be anticipated,

Promptly at 2:30 o'clock Counsel Arctander
resumed his argument, remarking that coun-
sci for the State had reared monument for
themselves, ''more durable than BRASS" in the
ability and unfagging labor in securing wit
nesses, leaving no stone unturned, and be the
case decided in favor or against the State,
their names would be handed down in the
history of the state in connection with this
celebrated impeachment trial. The counsel
then took up article XII, the term of court at
Renville county; devoting an hour to the im-
parchment of r W. Coleman, and other
points At the close of this portion of the
argument recess of ten minutes was taken.
After recess before the argument was re-
suined, Senator Mealey moved that when the
court adiourns it be till O'Clock p, m. Mon
day. Senator Crooks moved to amend to
Tuesday at 9 o. M, and Senator Kinds moved
to amend to to-day at 10 a. m.
Senator Wheat rose TO make his emphatic
protest, saying that it was an outrage on the
state. a useless waste of time and money.
Senator Campbell was in fovor OF the adj
journment to Monday. and claimed it was due
to the attorneys and members of the court,
and their exhaustive labors demanded some
cessation in their arduous duties.
Senator Adams said it would look bad now
that the money was all gone for us to
rush business.
Senator Powers claimed that the i'm
mense mass Of testimony, the lengthy
required that members should have
time to examine the testimony each for linn
self and made an argument in favor of the adj
journmeut.
Senator A. M. johnson said it did not suit
him; these adjournments did not give him:
time to go home, and this loafng about st.
Paul was ''killing him. he either wanted to
do something or go home and stay at home.
Senator Kinds said whether an adjournment
was made or not was immaterial to him, and
withdrew his motion.
Senator johnson moved to amend to Mon

Counsel resumed his argument, and had hardly
proceeded fifteen minutes until it was discoy-

leaving no quorum.
On motion of Senator Adams a call OF the
senate was ordered, and after delay of ten
minutes the requisite number, three, were Sc
cured, and counsel resumed his remarks.
Counsel resumed his examination of the evil

when the time for adjournment had ar

Goals TO NEWCASTLE.

1t will be both interesting and profitable
information to. the farming and dairy in
terests of the country-and especially so
to those interests in the West-to know
that butter is being imported into the
United States from Germany, and sold at
q profit in the Eastern markets. With
land selling in this country at merely a
nominal price compared with the
price in the Old World, it Is at
first blush difficult to understand the
causes that have led to this result. In
this country butter has ruled higher in
the markets during the last year than for
several years previous. The necessaries
of life for both man and beast have, dur
ing the same period, oftentimes been be-
yond the reach of the poor. Stockmen
have, owing to the scarcity of hay, had
to feed wheat and other poor
straws, In order to get their
cattle through the winter. On the
stock ranges in the Territories thousands
of cattle persisted from cold and hunger
during the winter of 1901. The result
has been to cause the products of the
dairy and farm to rule high in the mar
kets of the country. These and other
causes, taken in connection with the
small profits and poor wages generally
obtained by the industrial classes
Of the Old World. compared with
the magnificent bounty which
rewards the son of toll IN this country
fully explain why the dairy products Of
Holstein can be sold at the present time
in the markets of this country at profit
to the importer. The causes which have
led during the last year to the importa-
ton of potatoes and butter into this
country, are patent to the world, and all
attempts to bolster up pet tariff theories
on such an incident, are both silly and
improbable.

payments with the view of permitting the
bankrupt to proceed with his business,
in cases where the ends Of justice would
be subserved by so doing. Claims that
have not matured can be rebated under
an order of the court; and the claim of no
creditor is prejudiced by his having taken
security in good faith. Interlocutory
matter may be heard before a master in
chancery under standing or special or
der of reference, subject to the supervis-
ion and control of the court. A discharge
under the law, cannot be contested after
the expiration of two years from its date.

4BSEET JURYMEK.

A correspondent of the GLOBE very
pertinently called attention, few days
ago, to the absenteeism of Senators who
are supposed to be sitting in judgment in
the impeachment trial of Judge Cox.
The point made was that unless Senator
had made up his mind to vote for acquit-
tai he should be in constant attendance.
The force of this argument IS apparent.
For jurors o c0nyict man without hear
ing the testimony or seeing the witnesses
is simply noOnstrous. To read the evil
dence in cold print is altogether different
from hearing it delivered, noting the ap-
pearance of the witness, his probable
truthfulness or the reverse. If man
was on trial for burglary or any
crime, it would not be tolerated
a moment to allow the jurors
to absent themselves, and read up the
trial. A man convicted by such a jury
would have his case reopened instantly
by higher court.
But here is court of last resort, from
which there is no appeal, trying man for
alleged offenses, and one half of the jury
have not been present at the trial and
heard the evidence.
1t is curiously interesting to take the
record and note this absenteeism. In the
taking of the testimony twenty-five days
of actual work were consumed-twelve
for til prosecution and thirteen for the
defe 1se. The roll calls show the number

Average attendance during the twelve days
taking testimony for the Stats was twenty
four and one-sixth; average attendance during
evidence for respondent, tweuty-three and
seven thirteenths.
In some cases Senators have come in
after roll CALL but these are exceptions
only and the record given shows the alb
senteeism as rule. 1t will be interest
ing to retain this record of attendance
upon the trial and compare it with the
