This meeting was held in the historic
Shenandoah Valley, region famed for its
picturesque scenery, its fertile soil, its
careful agriculture, and, We may add, its
courageous men.
There is something very gratifying in
the fact that republicanism has made a
secure lodgment in this garden spot" of
Virginia, in section that contributes
more to the wealth and prosperity of the
state than any other of equal area within
its bounds. 1t is still more gratifying
that the republican leaders are native
Nirginians, men of high character and
commanding ability, and that enterpris-
ing merchants and manufacturers, sturdy
farmers and mechanics, and intelligent
laboring men make up the rank aud file
Of the party, For nearly twenty years
patriotic men in the north have been
looking to the organization of ropub-
lican party in the south that would em-
brace n majority Of the white popula-
| tion as tho final solution of all tho
political troubles growing out of tho war.
| Such party exists in many counties of
| West Virginia, in portions OF Kentucky,
| in East Tennessee, and in "the Valley"
Of Virginia. We trust that before the
close of the presidential campaign it will
have extended itself over all tho pros
porous agricultural, manufacturing, and
grazing counties Of the "Old Dominion"
Physical intimidation and social pro.
scription can no longer be used in the
Shenandoah VALLEY to prevent people
from becoming republicans. Tho colored
voters are not numerous, and the.terrible
bugbear Of negro supremacy" which is
used SO effectively in many southern COM
munities, has no terrors for these enor-
| getic, aggressive, selfrespecting peoplo.

They are not afraid to accord equal rights
aud equal opportunities to every citizen,
no matter what may be tho color of his
skin. The democrats no longer attempt
to set up the claim that their party con-
tains all the wealth, intelligence, and
virtue of the community. There arc
republicans who are the peers of the best
of tho bourbons in all the learned Inofos-
sions in eVory department of industry
and in all the walks of life. There are
also republicans who arc fighting men.
Tho bourbons recognize this fact, and have
ceased to presume upon thoir arrogant
claim to higher sense OF honor and
superior courage.
A wanton attack was made upon Mr..
