Removed.
AS we anticipated last week the Rev. A. P.
Heating S. j., for the past two years the ETH
cient and beloved pastor of St. Thomas con-
gregation has been removed from his charge at
that place, much to the regret of his many
friends both Catholics and non Catholics. Since
his residence among US Father Heating had by
his uniformly urbane and courteous manner
and kindly ans sympathetic feelings much en-
deared himself to all wi h whom he came in
contact, and the absence of his kindly face
will be much missed by the congregation HON
he had in charge for so long. He has been
sent to Leonardtown, and he eff on last FRIDAY
morn ng for he new scence of his labors, not,
however, without she lding tetr Of regret at
parting from the old friends and old as oca
lions o which he had heroine so strongly at.
tachtd What is our loss is another's gain
and wish the Rev. gentleman much joy and
prosperity in whatever part of the world hi;
fo,unns may be cast.

The Sherman Report.

Mr.. SHERMAN did not present the report
Of the Danvilie-riot investigation; but this
fact will not save him from excoriation by
Senator VANCE. Indeed the report made
by Mr.. SALISBURY in the Copiah case Is
exactly the sort OF answer that ought to be
made to the report OF the majority IN the
Danyi.e case. The whole object OF both
Investigations was TO make party capital
Discarding the testimony of the best men
in Danvilie, Mr.. SHERMAN accepts the testi-
mony Of negroes and bases his report upon
II.
THAT powder has been burned once"
There Is no danger 10 the Democratic party
to be feared from the attempt to ignite it
again. This report Of SHEEMAN's will have
a good effect upon the Democrats of Vir-
ginia. II will remind them most convinc-
ingly that there are before the voters other
questions much more important to them
than the tariff, and will serve as command
from the highest authority to "close up the
ranks

Campaign numbuS.
baltimore SUM-


As the Sherman committee to investigate
the DanviIle riot and the alleged Copiah-
county outrages was appointed for the ex-
press purpose Of manufacturing new mate
rial for bloody-shirt campaign, it is not
surprising that the report prepared by Sem
ator Lapham ignoring the facts brought out
In the testimony Of unimpeachable wit
nesses in both instances finds that .vio-
lence was premedltated," and brought
about in "the contamination Of de-
liberate purpose for which the Demo-
Gratis had fully prepared" Nothing
could be further from the truth.
as the writer of the report well
knew. A sense of the character for
dignity and truthfulness which their office
imposes ON Senators Lapham, Sherman,
Hoar. and Cameron, should have pre-
vented them from engaging in the work Of
the petty manufacturer OF campaign lies,
TO be maintained holly until eection-day
is over, and then abandoned with copious
" regrets for the wrong done IN malign-
ing an entire State or section. The recon-
mendati0n made IN the report that the
representation in Congress OF Virginia
and Mississippi should be abridged, is, Of
course, only an empty threat designed to
excite the public mind and divert ii from
the tariff and other business issues.

THIS is NOT LOGAN'S YEAR.
Illinois Admits that Her Soldier SON is Out
of the Race.

A Bloomington special SAYS: The most
experienced and best-informed politicians
OF Illinois, and who were the foremost i'll
the ranks in advancing the claims OF Logan
for the presidency, are beginning to think
that the Logan boom to great extent has
died away, and the belief that the dis
tinguished Illinois Senator will hold the
balance of power IN the Chicago COnven-
ton has, during the past week, assumed
an entirely different shape.
1t was Illinois which created the boom
for Logan. 1t was healthy, and had Il lively
enthusiasm for many weeks. but it now
takes no particular political foresight TO tell
that Logan has been losing strength in his
own State, and there is every indication
that something OF political collapse has
settled over Illinois to the disparagement
OF the worthy Senator.
IL Is safe to say that the Illinois delegates
will not go through the same interesting
performance witnessed in Chicago four
years ago, when Grants friends kept up
the 306 notch until the dark horse was
trotted in; but, as soon as it becomes APP
parent that Logan has no perceptible
strength in the Convention, the lines will
be broken, and delegates will 90 to their
second choice. Three out OF five Of them
are for Blaine.

II Is very seldom that a Randalliie journal car
look out of its local shell and ,ase broad, ma
tionai view Of the tariff. If the tariff is local
subject, then the Legislatures of the respective
states. not the Congress of the United tates
should undoubtedly pass upon its merits. The ABB
surdity % states dealing with purely national ar

Congress of the United States, and this power can
only he exercised by that body. We challenge a
denial OF this obvious fact.-NOrfOk Ledger.
Come, Colonel DICK, don't be so hard on

We second the States motion that Gov
ernor CAMERON furnish the public with q
statement Of the real condition OF things in
Danvile. We quote:
"Such refutation OF the false charges
against the true and honest people OF one
Of our most peaceful and prosperous cities
would be worthy of n Governor OF the peo-
pie, who is not Governor that belongs to
q party. Such statement Of the true con-
dtion OF slandered Danyille. whether OFF,
cial or authorized as official, would come
with good grace from the Governor, who
visited Danvile Officially The State
opens its columns for such a statement,
which is due the Governor Of this Com
m0nwealth no less than it is due the pco-
pie OF Danville and Virginia"
Governor CAMEROY's record is clear on
this subject. In his message to the Gene
raj Assembly last December he failed to
endorse the charges that had been made
against the good people OF Danville.

NETWORKS NEWS, Va, May 81, 1884.
To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
The letter from your Hampton CORE
spondent published in to-day's issue OF
your paper does injustice to the ex-Union
soldiers OF Warwick county in not men,
tioning them as contributors TO the fund
collected for the purpose Of assisting in
the building OF home for eX-Confederate
soldiers.
AS chairman Of the committee having in
charge the collection and forwarding OF
the money in the two counties mentioned,
desire to say that the sum OF 1924 transmit
ted to Lee Camp was the result OF the Joint
efforts Of the eX-Union soldiers and sailors
of Elizabeth City and Warwick counties.
Very respectfully, HENRY DE b. CLAY.

MAY 20, 1884.
The one vote by which Mr.. NJ. C..
Thomas was elected city treasurer has led
to contest on the part Of the opponent,
Mr.. j. W. Neal, whose vote stood next to
him. The subject will come before Judge
Robertson on Monday on 4 motion for i
recount. which may result in an order for
u new election.
The renewal OF operations ut the POca-
hontas mines is very apparent about the
depot in this city in the increased number
of trans laden with "black diamonds "
that are almost continuously passing
through. We have now six passenger
trains daily-three each way-and with the
constant freight traffic over the Norfolk
and Western road the neighborhood Of the
company's Offices and depot presents an
unusually animated appearance.
The Southwest Virginia Improvement
Company are eXcavating a foundation for
a building adjoining the railroad offices,
but with frontage on Shenandoah avenue.
to be used for office purposes. As soon as
completed the Office OF the company will
be removed from POcahontas to this city.
The number Of licenses issued in this
city for the privilege OF doing business
since the 1st OF May exceeds largely all that
were issued during the entire year last
past, and thereby indicates an eyer-increas-
ing prosperity.
There is a renewal OF the rumOr here that
Major Henry Fink will be appointed to the
general SUPPLEMENTARY OF the two rail-
roads centering at this point, and that Mr..
Sands, the present superintendent, will be
provided for by bestowing on him the POI
sltiop of vice-president Of the companies.

10 Secure a Nomination which lie Can

Ia Control the National Convention
Upon the Cry for the Old Ticket, and
Bodily Deliver 1t TO the Friends OF the

Now. isn't that dreadful trap TO spring
upon us all at once? We had supposed
that some New York man-say, FLOWER
was to be put forward as the choice Of
Mr.. TILpLN's New York supporters in
case he himself declined the nomination.
But no; dreadful TO tell, 1t is PAYNE, an
Ohio man, a new United States senator. a
man with barrel bigger, or with bigger
hole In IL, than TLDEN's. 1t Is bad
enough to have TO think OF PAYNE as the
nominee at all, but 10 think OF him as get
ting the nomination under cover OF TIL
DES's name is intolerable. What shall
be done! Nothing except elect him, that
we can think Of. We quote few sem
fences from the Post:
