The Richmond Wig of Monday last says
The Democratic majority i'm West Virginia is
only 200 In October, lSS0, it was 1916.
Here is a Republican gain of 1900. Blaine
and Logan will surely carry the state.
Three lies and prediction based on false
premises in four lines. Quite moderate for the
| HTN. The Democratic majority last week was
&. 29S, I'm 1SSo it was only 800! Democratic
gain of POO instead of Republican gain of
! 1900 as alleged by the Wing.
It is related as a specially interesting event
that at Grafton a Young lady, a deaf mute, was
introduced TO Mr. Blaine and hc Immediately
opened up a conversation with hcrin the mute

things of public interest whilstin West Virgin
in. but this particular incident is credited TO
his great versatility. mo- mention being made of
the fact that hc was once a teacher i'm deaf
and dumb institution. There are five hundred
persons i'm Staunton who could have convcr>ed
with the young lady and their versatility would
not have excited remark If Mr.. Blaine will
