How to Administer cur Trusts.

Under the above caption, the Norfolk
Landmark says: 'tNo paper can appreciate,
or value the force Of our youth in political
campaign more than this. We rejoice to
see the young fellows come to the front and
achieve honors and distinctions. We be-
hold in them the hope of the State, the
promise of the future, and the ornament OF
the present. We desire to see them promot-
ed on all possible occasions where they are
men of merit; but we detest the foolish and
unreasonable CRY, which has been raised in
several newspapers, that the cold" fellows
"must CO." with much more to the same
purpose. 1t takes all classes and all ages
to mako sound and trustworthy party;
and the Democracy can no more get along
without the conservative influence of its So
called 'fossils'' than family, around the
hearthstone, could prosper without the
guiding influence of its old and experienced
members. Let us hear no more Of this
nonsense! Let the young men have their
full share of honors and rewards. Let their
services be remembered with just applause,
ard let it, also, be borne in mind that the
party counts it's veterans who should not be
forgotten. But, above all, let it be our in
flexible rule of action to bestow office as q
trust to be executed for the public good, and
to give no man anything, whether he be
young or old, which he does not deserve by
reason of his honesty and competency az
well as by his party services"

Congressional Democratic Caucus.

a caucus of the Democratic mem ers to
make nominations of officers of the House
OF Representatives was held last Saturday
night in the hall of the House Of Represen-
tatives. General Rosecrans called the eau
Gus to order, and Mr.. Geddes, Of Ohio, was
elected chairman.
AS the Democrats have a considerable
majority in the House of Representatives,
the nominations in caucuss are equivalent
to elections, and the nominees were no
doubt elected on yesterday.
Mr. Carlisle was nominated for Speaker
by the following vote: Carlisle, 106; Ran
dali, SO: and Cox, 80. Messrs. Randall and
Cox escorted Mr.. Carlisle into the hall OF
the House. His speech was happy one,
and was loudly applauded.
TJohn Griffin Carlisle was born in Camp
bell (now Kenton) county, Kentucky, Sep
TENDER 5, 1885. He received a common
school education, and afterwards taught
school in his county and in Covington. He
studied law with J. W. Stevenson and W.
B. Kinkead, and was admitted to the bar
in 1858. He first appeared in public life as
a member of the Kentucky House of Rep
lesentatives in 1859. In 1864 he was nom
mated as presidential elector On the Dem
ocratic ticket but declined. He served
two terms in the Kentucky Senate, being
elected in 1866 and reelected in 1869. He
was delegate at large from his State to
the National Democratic Convention held
at New York in July, 1868, and was elected
Lieutenant Governor of Kentucky in Au-
gust, 1871, serving until September, 1875.
He was elected to the Forty-ffth Congress,

DEATH OF GEORGE YOU'VE, Eso.-This
aged and well-known citizen died at his
residence, near Luray, at / 40 a. m, Tues
day, morning, November 9th, 18S3,-aged
SO years, months and % days. Though
at his advanced age he had been in good
health up 10 within few months, when he
was attacked by paralysis, and from which
he never entirely recovered, though con-
tinued to go about his premises and visit
near neighbors. Sunday, November 18th.
there was recurrence Of the attack from
which he continued to sink, and which re-
suited in his death as above stated. MIR.
Y. was born in Winchester, but removed to
this county abont sixty years ago, where he
has ever since resided, honored and respect
ed by all who knew him. His family con-
nection was as numerous as any we have
ever known, as we are informed that the
descendants of his immediate family num-
Der 70 persons, children, grand and great
grandchildren, the greater portion of whom
are still living. He was a soldier in the
war of 1912, but always refused to accept
the pension to which he was entitled. His
funeral took place yesterday at his home
place near town, Rev. A. Weller, of the
Methodist Church, conducting the service,

Want of Confidence.

1t seems that our morning conte mpora-
ries disagree in regard to the propriety of
our Legislatures asking Senator Malone to
resign. We agree with the Virginian. He
ought to be requested to give up the posi-
ton which he disgraces. He does not now
even represent the legislators who voted for
him. Nearly all have deserted him and
many have been fighting him since the last
session of the Legislature. He does not
now, as he did then, represent the views of
Massey, Fulkerson, Newberry, Hale, Ward,
Rhea, Kelley, Reynolds, Lybrook, Rufin,
Young, and host of leaders in the party
who advocated his election as Senator. Nor
does he represent one in ten of the whole
voters who followed these leaders His
slanderous attack on the State he represents
is not endorsed by the best men that are
even still left in his party. He represents
nobody. He is a defeated usurper scorned
by his opponents in Virginia and without
the confidence and affection of the faction
he has led. He cannot be impeached; he is
not responsible directly to the Legislature.
It can only deal morally with him. 1t can
formally tell the world that Virginia repu-
dates her senior Senator, and no longer
looks to him to represent her in the coun-
ellis of the country. Her people, who have
been outraged sby this unworthy Senator,
are entitled and have the right to publish
to the world that they are without real rep
resentation in the Senate of the United
States, and will not be responsible for the
speeches, votes, and acts of her senior Sena-
tor.
It will not take more time in the Legisla-
ture than the subject is worth. We have
no objection to any ventilation of the SUBJ
ject in the. Legislature or elsewhere. The
people of Virginia-her best people, her
most intelligent and virtuous people-have
been wronged the character of the people
and Legislators has been attacked, and their
political and social enemies have been en-
couraged to denounce and revile them
They have no legal remedy, they can Meth
er punish nor remove this pestilent Senator,
but they can, through their legal represen-
tatives in the Capitol assembled, arraign
before the world this contumacious official,
demand return of his credentials and dis
avew his representative position and de-
nounce his acts; and this they ought to do.

Meeting Of Congress.

The 18th Congress met on yesterday to
organize and transact the business of ses-
sion which, from the number depressing is
sues to be brought before it, is likely to be
of unusual interest. The Senate consists OF
38 republicans, 36 democrats, and two read
.justers (Mahone and Riddleberger) who will
vote with the republicans. The House, of
of which the membership was increased by
the last superintendent from 296 to 1876,
will stand; Democrats, 1914; republicans
119; readjusters, 5; Independents, 4; green
hackers, 2; vacancies, 2. The number OF
votes constituting a majority of the House
is 165, but the democratic majority over all
is GO. The distribution of the democratic
strength which is greatest in the West and
South, is in accord, says the Bait. Sun,
with the fact brought out by the census OF
1880 that the centre of population and pow
er in the Union is west Of the Alleghanies
and is moving to the Southwest.

CHAIRMAN RIvEs's ANSWER TO MA
HoNE.-Mr. ]. Fl. Rives, chairman of the
Republican State Central Committee of
Virginia, has written long letter to the
Baltimore american, in which he holds Ma
hone responsible for the Danville riot. He
says further
ssThe causes of Mahone's defeat are ap-
parent to every rejecting mind, and are so
| plain that he who runs may read. The
causes have existed almost from the COM
mencement of his rule, growing each day
in strength, cumulative in their effect, until
an indignant public, composed of all parties,
have repudiated the little boss by an over
whelming majority.
cit was foregone conclusion, and no
power could have averted it while the lead.
ership Of the party remained in the hands OF
Malone. | saw this so clearly after the
Wise Massey campaign that I had advised
prominent Readjusters to reorganize theil
committee and select some one in place OF
Malone for their chairman, and thus avoid
the indignation which Malone had aroused
against himself personally, and the odium
| which was attached to his name.
"He has wrecked the Readjuster party:
he has wrecked everything he ever touched,
and venture to predict that he will wreck
the Republican party, unless they avail OF
the present opportunity to get rid of the
dead weight. Every lover of his country
and Of Republican institutions should re-
joice in Mahone's defeat. 1t is but another
guarantee of the benefcence and perma-
nence of a republican form of government
! among free and enlightened people. 1t is
but another lesson to future politicians
