The Republican Conventtox,

The most wonderful exhibition made bv
the gathering of Radicalism at Chicago ia
the selection of its temporary chairman.
The National Committee recommended
white Republican who had occupied promi-
nent position in the party. TO confirm the
selection of the Committee has been the
general usage of parties, if for no other rea-
son, as a matter of courtesy to the body ap-
pointed by the last Convention to take
charge OF party administration. The pre-
sent gathering, which embodies representa-
yves OF the honest people of the North Ia
minority and the corrupt masses North

ghat IS endeavoring to select President of
the United States, who is to appoint the
committees, to give form and much force to
the convention. Is he the acknowledged
superior of white Republicans from States
with large Republican maiorities. and
which claim that the preponderance of in
telligence, worth and ability is in their par
ty? What does this mean? Is it a corrupt
bid for the negro vote? We thought the
Republicans already had that Is It an at

graded, and lost its selfrespect-is withous

himself beyond the pale of common decencv.
Branded repeatedly, as he has been. as a
liar and still wearing the brand, would add
nothing to my reputation by denouncing the
false statements contained in the issue of
the paper referred to.
Advertising to the world his intention to
fight no more duels after his bloodless ex.
perience, would only bring down ridicule
upon myself, were l to go through the farce
OF challenging man, who, at the first smell
OF powder and without the loss of drop of
blood, proclaimed his own reformation.
Therefore l refuse to make myself the
scape goat for this man to ride back into re-
spectability upon.
And now begging the pardon of my read
ers for the space occupied on this matter. I
submit myself for Judgment to the good
people OF Shenandoah, feeling assured that
my character will be indicated, and INV
course endorsed by them.

The Question.

There is no trick resorted to by the willy
politician as successful, says the Abingdon
Varginian, as that of so surrounding the
main question in which two political par
ties join issue, with multitude Of things
of minor Importance, that its true signifi-
canoe is completely hidden, and the people
left in doubt as to what their duty really is.
For twenty three years the Republican
party has had absolute control of the gov
eminent of these United States. 1t re-
quires ro proof stronger than the written
history of events during this time, to show
that they have been party of fraud, dis
honesty, and corruption. They have aided
and abetted in stealing the peoples money,
and shielded the criminals from punish
ment. They have stirred up sectional
strife, and endeavored to engender sectlonal
hatred that, vampire-like, they might grow
and fatten on the blood of the nation.
They have built up and fostered monopo-
lies in one section, to the detriment ana
almost destruction of another. They have
destroyed our commerce. They have dis
regarded and violated the Constitution time
and again, and tyrannically set the will OF
the people at naught. Having tasted pow
er, they have shown disposition to retain
it at all hazards; for in 1876 they refused
to obey the voice of the people, and were
prepared, had demand of obedience been
made, to put Gen. Grant over the people as
military dictator.
This is truthful resume of the twenty
three years of Republican rule.
The question is, will the people OF Vir-
ginia sanction what the Republican party
have done by voting next November to
keep them in power? or will they, by an
overwhelming majority, denounce this grow
ing evil, and assist to place once more In
power the party that broke the chains
which bound them to monarchical despo-
tism, that made this nation powerful, hon
ored, loved, at home and abroad-that
watched over, and will watch over, all sec
tions of our country alike, and knowing nc
North, no South, no East, no West, indi'
vidually act for the prosperity OF our COM
mon country-a party of the people, fol
the people, and who believe that the su.
preme power is lodged in the hands of the
people, whose will is law? The question Of
4 tariff is not involved in the issue of the
1 day; it is one of grave Importance, and
can, with safety, be intrusted to the intelli-
gence and patriotism of the Democratic
servants you select, when the proper time
comes for it's consideration; therefore, be
: not misled by what may be written OF
spoken about tariff or any other outside
matter, used as bait to lure you from the
{ true question: Shall an 0ligarchy be main
: tanned, or shall we lie free once more under
Democratic administrations
Secure first the power to reform, after
1 which the reform needed can be intelli
gently discussed.

Reform-Change of Administration.

We believe, with the Lynchburg Aduance,
that the Republican party and its policy
must go, OF it will not be many years before
this Government will have lost every YES
tige of what the fathers made it. One of
the best evidences Of this tendency, this
swiftly increasing tendency,is the adoption
Of the Internal Revenue Systems its man
agement and enforcement. The country
has been filled with detectives, spies, and
informers, paid by the money from the
treasury without specific explanation or ac-
countability. Military force and armed
marshals and posses have been used, not
for the purpose of keeping the peace and
putting down violence, under proper waE-
rant, but to search for illicit stills, and to
capture or kill violators of the revenue laws
untried and sinconvicted. Men have been
appointed and paid high salaries to search
for illicit distillers in counties where there
wasyno representation, much less affidavit,
that any existed, and had been ever found
And the party has. by law, prevented the
trial OF any OF these officials OF appointees
by State Courts, or tsseiR arrest by State
authority for any violence or crime they
may commit on their raids and revenue es-
petitions. The great demand of the day
the great necessity for the people is thor
ough, radical reform, not only in the ad-
ministration of the departments which have
become inefficient and corrupt, but in the
policy and legislation that has prevailed
since the war. The world seems to be con-
trolled by monopolies and rings, which en-
ter the chambers and councils of Kings and
rulers, the halls and committee rooms of
legislators to influence and control them,
and into the offices of trade and business TO
exact, and the cottages Of the people to op-
press. Our country, our Government, I'M
der the loose ideas Of Republieanism, ap-
pears to be given over to corrupt power,
bought influence, bribed Legislation, and
the people, the masses. in tie primary as
semblies, under the leadership of cool, wise,
patriotic men of their own class and locali-
ties, can alone save the country. The
Democratic party is now the only party of
the people, and with pEope. reforms and
under patriotic leaders can save tine eoutl-
try, but like other parties, it can and will
be corrupted, and the people, the masses,
must control it and furnish it with leaders
in sympathy with them and their interests.
