Blaine with hurrah, against the
protests of the Independents, they
kept up their cheering all Friday
night, and woke up Saturday morn
ing to fnd that the New York Times

most powerful eastern organs, had
peremptorily refused to support the
ticket, Prof Lyman, the Massa

represents the Ninth Congressional

Independents are to hold a national

cratic Convention has selected its
nominees-ovidently with purpose Of
indorsing the Democratic nomina-

now declared that any good Demo

Mr.. Blaine's record IS very bad, and
it will all be dinned into the ears of
the voters from now until aftor the
election.
The South has little cause to regret
the nomination, whether Blaine is olec-
ted or not. Blaine is not bitter against
this section, and he is under no obli-
cation in the world to the
thing called tho Southern Republican
party.
The concern prevented his nomina-
ton in 1850, and it was doing its best
to accomplish the same thiugm 1884.
Blaine owes the southern concer moth
ing, and he will be in no hurry to pay
it. If his party is to elect the Prosi-
dent, we would as soon have Blaine
as any man in it.-Yioksburg Herald.

The Lee Monument,

Unless 4 bin is passed at once by the
Legislature allowing the Lee Monument
Associations to consolidate, the building
OF the Lee monument will be postponed at
least two years.
There are three aSsOclations-the State
Association, with $4,000 in hand; the
ladies, with 100000, and the Musical,
with $1,000.
All OF these, years and years ago, col
lected money all over the South TO build,
in Richmond, monument TO Lee.
The State Association is managed by the
Governor, Treasurer, and Auditor OF the
State. The act under which they work
contemplates an equestrian statue OF Lee,
to be erected on the Capitol Square. OF
the Ladies' Association. Miss Sarah Ran
dolph, OF Elicott Mills, Nd, is president,
and Miss Lizzie Nicholas, OF Richmond,
secretary. Their idea has been to erect on
Libby Hill 4 lofty column surmounted by
a figure OF Lee. OF the Musical AssO-
ciatlOn, D1r. Kelley is president and Mr..
John Tyler secretary.
Now, these organizations and their funds
should be united.
A good way to do it is TO add four men,
bers to the State Board. Let the ladies
name (say) three OF them and the Musi-
cal Association name one Of them. Then
the Governor. Treasurer, Auditor, and four
other persons would be the Lee Monument
Board, and they should be empowered to
build such Il statue rs majority may de-
eide, and erect il either on the Capitol
Square or elsewhere in Richmond.
IL the associations really mean business
they will get a bill through. If not, the
subject had as well be dropped, and sleep
for years in the future as it has for years in
the past.
In this enumeration the Veterans ASsO-
citation (Mr. George w. Warren treasurer)
is not forgotten. They would no doubt be
willing to cooperate with one of the three
older associations.
As far back as October 80, 1888, the
Ladies' Association made move towards
cooperating with the other (State) associa-
tion, and suggested the.na OF Colonies
w. l.. Cutshaw and Archer Anderson and
Professor Thomas X. Price as a committee
on their part. Now, il these gentlemen
would meet at once with the Governor,
Auditor, and Treasurer, and start the ma
chinery, it would put the monument project
two years ahead.

As 10 Extra Session.

Many OF the members and attaches OF
the General Assembly say that they think
there will be an extra session. They be-
lieve that this working without pay will
not continue longer than saturday, and
that il the Governor does not voluntarily
call IN extra session the necessary number
OF members can be induced TO sign de-
mand upon him to compel him TO recon-
yene the General Assembly. Such a call
was signed by about sixty members OF the
House before the session was extended.
These signatures hold good unless with
drawn, but siXty-seven aTe needed. Only
two CoalItiOnists signed it. For an extra
session the salary is $3.50.
Many members, in view OF the fact that
the Christmas recess extended from De-
cember 2lst to January I'd, express will
ingness to stay here week or ten days
without pay; but il longer time Is needed
to get through with the business. they are
OF opinion that the State ought to pay them.
The pay OF a legislator is $3.50 for a regu-
lar session. and $3.50 for an extra session
that is, 81 day, or SIS per week. II the
legislators make up for the Christmas re-
cess, their time will be out about March
18th.

THE PARRIClDAL PISTOL.
A Son shoots His Father Fatally, if is
Feared.

Yesterday morning there was an unusual
excitement about the Old Market. A son
had plstoled bis father on the street, had
fired four shots, two OF which had taken
effect, and would have fired the last but for
the fact that Sergeant Whitlock. OF the
First police-statioD, timely disarmed him.
The facts. "a nearly as could be ascer-
tanned, are as follows:
M. NJ. Ellick keeps q general mercantile
store at 105 Seventeenth street, and his
father resides In the same house. For
some time past family ieuds have prevailed,
and have gone to such extent that war
rants have been issued and served, and
public notoriety given to the unfortunate
occurrences. These squabbles grew worse,
and yesterday eliminated tragically. A.
ter some domestic row, the particulars Of
which none of the family seemed willing
10 relate, Mr.. Ellick, the parent, went out
OF the store and went over to V. Donati's
store for the purpose OF buying furs. just
before he reached the store OF Donati
young Ellck was seen TO approach In the
same direction, and as he neared his father
| he drew from his pocket snall-sized,
self. cooking, improved Smith Il Wesson
| five-shooter and opened fire on the old man.
ibC ltpOib VI iuC pirtOi ssnu thc UCt-
ligerent demonstrations OF his son alarmed
the father, and he rapidly retreated across
franklin street. Young Ellick continued
his fire, and his father fell. shot in two
places, two other shots failing OF aim. The
crack OF the pistol and the cries OF the
wounded man attracted the attention OF
Sergeant Whitlock, and he ran to the spot,
disarmed young Ellick OF his smoking pis-
tol, and had the wounded man carried to
his home. Young Ellick admitted that he
fired the shots. and said that he was pro-
voked to do so by the behavior OF his
father.
Drs. Rlddell, Brock, and Levy were
called in to see the sufferer, and found that
he was shot in two places-tirst, in the
back Just above the hip-ioint, and about
three inches to the left OF the spinal col
umn; the other near the hip-joint. and
below it. The wound in the small OF the
back was probed, and it was discovered
that the ball had taken ZigZag course
dOwnwards, and had lodged somewhere in
the lower part of the body. The doctors
did not think il advisable to attempt TO
probe further. This wound is very Sc
rious, but not necessarily fatal. The other
wound is not considered serious.
Young ElIick was taken before Police
Justice ID. G.. Richardson, but the condi-
ton Of the elder Ellick was such that Justice
Richardson postponed the case until next
Tuesday, recognizing the witnesses to APP
pear at that time. Young Ellick was sent
to Jail to await his examination, and bail
was refused
