late election, and the Electoral vote
of Virginia would be cast next year for
the Republican candidate for the
Presidency. To prevent the latter the
shotgun was used, and murders as
cold-blooded as they were infamous
were committed at Danville, and a
reign of terror was .inaugurated
throughout the State. Without the
aid of the Bourbons Of Virginia and
Mississippi, the cause of the Demo
cratic party would be hopeless; but it
is determined that the South shall be
as solid in the Electoral College as it
WAS on the side of the rebellion, and
whatever methods may be necessary to
accomplish that result will be adopted,
even if the policy should involve the
shedding of rivers of blood.
This is the meaning of the so-called
Danville riot. 1t is the purpose for
which innocent men were assassinated
on that occasion.
The Democratic party has it in its
power to put sstop to the outrages
that are perpetrated in its name; but
will it do it? We fear not We look
in vain to its press for a condemnation
of the Virginia outrages, or even for
a fair statement of the facts. The
Democratic leaders know that upon
the solid South their hope of success
DEFENDS, and they are ready to gather
in these votes and count them, and
Troit by them reg rdless Of the meth
DDS by which they are secured. If,
therefore, Democratic President
should be elected in 1884 he would
owe his election to the solid South and
to the methods which were made SO
conspicuous by the Bourbons of Vir
ginia in the late farce which is mis-
called an election.
1t seems ordered that the battle of
civilization against barbarism must be
fought over again in 1884, and the
people who are on the side of the
former may as well begin to prepare
their ballots.

U. S. Senator Tory, also member OF
the Republican National committee,
proposes to change the basis of repre-
sentation from the several States to the
National Republican convention SO
that each State may have four dele
gates at large, each district one, and
one additional for each 10000 votes
within its limits in 1880 for presiden-
tial electors, and one delegate for each
fraction Of such 10000 votes over half
thereof This basis will give Oregon
one more than now and will increase
the total from $40 to &c.,,
