The strange part of the story Of "straightoutism"
in Virginia is that tho republican press of the
United States should have so noticed 1t as to de-
Ceve the public as regards the importance Of the
dlsgraCeful movement,
But, thanks to the intelligence of the national
republican party Of the United States, these silly
adjunOts to the btterest bourbonism of the coun-
try have been quoted forever, and elsewhere will
the alleged democracy OF Virginia have to look
for an assistant to their indecent assaults upon that
liberal republicanism in Virginia which is to put
the old commonwealth to the fore front as pro-
gressiye state-one that Is no longer willing to be
regarded rs the depository of the bones of all that
was ever great
Success for Tepubllcanism in Virginia seems
now assured. With the noisy busy bodies Of the
Dezendorf and Wlckham order remanded to prl'
vate life and thrown into the ranks Of bourbon
ism, where they should long ago have been cast,
the party Of the people will rally as one man
against tho enemies Of the state and the age and
come forth conqueror.
The people Of Virginia can never give too much
honor to the master mind that has directed the
people from the old ruts ana given new life to the
country.

AMONG tho 500 delegates to the Chicago
convention not man could be found to
object TO the admission of the delegation
from Virginia headed by Senator Malone.
Tho report of the committee on credentials in
their favor was unanimous, and the action of
the convention in adopting it was unani-
nous. Tho pretended straightouts" re-
ceived no recognition from anybody. Mr..
Dezendorf might as we'll have remained in
Washington for anything he has accomplished
at Chicago. The Blaine people didn't want
him, and cordially concurred with tho
whole body Of delegates in sitting down on
him and his delegation. There is an
active, aggressive republican party in
Virginia, but Mr.. Dezendorf is not its leader;
there may even be some question as to
whether he belongs to it. Tho national con-
vention had no difficulty in determining
who were the Virginia republicans and who
were tho assistant bourbons. Senator Ma
hone has already done more for republican
ism in the south than any man in the party,
and with the moral support of the north he
may possibly bring Virginia into the limo Of
republican states. His reception at Chicago
shows thar his work has commended itself to
tho great republican heart,

When Maj Burke, director general of tho

ton in the interest of the exposition, he was
tendered a great reception by the citizens and
different commercial exchanges Of the city.
The reception was given last Monday night.
Senator Gibson presided, and made tho ad-
dress of welcome. In reply, Maj, Burke said
many good things, and among others tho
following which, coming from n southern
democrat, are significant utterances. He was
speaking of the design of the managers Of
the enterprise and said it was ITO reach out
our hand to our brother in black, shed upon
that unfortunate race the sunlight of science
and invention, and implant in him the
desire to come out of the slough of igno-
rance and make manly effort to
occupy with US the improved farm, the work.
shop, and the factory. If we are to live to-
gether we must educate and elevate this pop
ulation, which numbers six millions of souls
in fourteen states. If we arc to become q
manufacturing people we must transplant
the growing youth from the fields of idleness
to the workshop. Improved agricultural i'm
plements will more than take the place of
any labor that may be taken from agricul-
tural pursuits"
The director general paid II graceful tribute
to President Arthur, saying: find in the
north but ono sentiment toward us and our
exposition, from the lowest subordinate in
the land up to the great heart and broad
mind of President Arthur, whose admins.
istraton has been blessing TO the south and

THEY DID NOT FIGHT.
The Glove Match Between White and
Stevens Falls Through.

The fight announced to come off at the
Theatre Comique last night between Stevens
and White did not take place, owing to
Whites failure to appear. Col. Snelbaker
stated that he was willing to pay $50 for
the match to take place, and made that
announcement from the stage, although
he had rented the house for 500 to
Stevens and White and had realized but
$165. The colonel finally arranged a
scrap" match between Stevens and George
Northdge, and three lively rounds were
fought. He said: 81 will make up for lost
ground tomorrow night, by treating WASH
ington audience to the best wrestling match
ever seen here" The contestants will be the
Japanese champion, Matsada Sorakichi, and
Capt. Bibby, for a purse of $500.
Whites friends claim that their man would
not fight because Col Snelbaker would not
give him the money in advance, and that he
is willing and anxious to meet Stevens at
any timo and place and in any kind OF
fight. They say he feels very bitter toward
Stevens for "giving him away" and that he
will get even,
