PATRIOTISM AGAINST MONEY.-As the
Norfolk Landmark says, the only force we
can oppose to the Malone Blaine money is
that of patriotism, and in view of the magni-
tude of the crisis we trust cur people, in
town and country, will adapt themselves for
the new aspect soon to be put on the face
Of the campaign. This is to be done by ac-
tive attention to the details of the election,
and whatever be the result in Ohio
the honest votes Of Virginia must realize
that their most bitter and remorseless enc
my intends to make prodigions effort to
capture the Commonwealth. With us this
is struggle Of extraordinary vital imror-
lance; for it means not only the settlement
OF our relations in the Federal election
but the decision of our fate in those local
matters Of government, which touch us in
every act of our lives, and in all our inter.
ests. All we need to overthrow our malig-
nant and predatory enemy is to bring out
our voters; and those who fail in this duty
will be guilty Of a 'tblundel" whose magni-
tude will realize the saying of Talleyrand
and become "crime" against the State.

PROTECT THE BALLOT Bex-For the
purpose Of dstecting those who may at
tempt to vote who have been improperly
registered, two intelligent, firm, and dis
Greet challengers should be appointed at
each precinct.
From what we have learned, we are sat
isfied that negroes have been registered who
are not entitled to DO so. Some have reg
istered who are not 81 years of age, and
some who have not been living in the pre-
cinct the time required, and some are reg
istered in more than one precinct. These
should be watched, and warned, and il
they vote, should be tried and punished.
Guard the purity of Ballot-Box.

Hard Times.

Every working-man and mechanic, says
the Wythville Dispatch, understands from
his own experience that the times are hard.
Every farmer knows the same. Every fur
mace owner will endorse the same state
ment. Now, who is responsible for this?
The Republican party has been in power
for twenty-three years, during the greater
portion Of that time they have had posses
sion ofevery department Of the government.
They have controlled all the legislation of
Congress and are responsible for it's influ-
ence upon public happiness and prosperity
A high protective tariff for twenty. three
years has been. in operation, and if the claim
Of thu Republicans he true, that Of itself
ought to have brought us prosperity. We
closed factories, no idle laborors. Yet we
have them ALL Our readers may rest as
sured that times will not much improve
until the Democratic party is placed in
power. All who desire change should
vote and work for the Cleveland and Hen
bricks ticket. All who desire the present
hard times to continue should vote for the
party whose corruptions and mal-adminis-
tration have brought about the present con-
dition of things. The Democratic party
has always been the party of the people,
has always labored to promote the interests
of the people, and consequently has always
been opposed and antagonized by the me-.
nopolists and corruptionists. The present
contest will for the next four years deter
mine whether the party Of the people shall
triumph

The general trade was good today.
Flour was steady at quotations for
small lots; by the car load concessions
can be had in the regular course of
trade. Wheat was frmer and in bet

The receipts were, however, light, and
if the present bad weather continues
many days it may cause a slight adj

"Hog cholera is" observes the Pitts.
burg National Stockman and Farmer,
"quite common in some sections of the
the country, but in reality, there is no
need of the country being swept by its
devastations, if proper sanitary precau>
tions are observed and the hog subjects
ed to judicious system of feeding.
Corn is recognized as an intensely heat
ing article of diet, and a producer of
fat without developing the lean and
muscular tissues in the same proper
ton. 1t is this unequal development,
this building up one portion of the sys,
tenn at the expense of the others, that
lays the system of the hog open to the
inroads of disease. Hogs are subject
to about the same treatment the coun-
try over, kept in close, filthy and foul
smelling quarters, and fed exclusively
on corn, without sufficient drink, and
what drink they do get is too often
dirty, filthy slops. This is the reason
that the disease takes about the same
form in different sections. That dis
ease has been called hog cholera, but
it is rather the rebellion of the hogs
overtaxed and unequally developed
hoggish nature against an injudicious
system of feeding, We are constrained
to think that if our hogs were reared
and fattened in a more judicious way,
giving them such treatment as cattle
receive, good, clean,. and airy quarters,
and mixed diet, hog cholera would
soon be unknown in our swine pens
and the hog considered the most healthy
and hardy of all animals"

To the Pupils of Our Schools.

Judging from what | have written,
| suppose you have begun to think as
some little boys have spoken to me
about the example in the paper.
now offer this question in order
that you may continue to "think."
A ship started from New York, on
Monday, Sept. LIST, 1884, precisely at
noon, to go to Queenstown in Ireland.
Another ship started from Queenstown
in Ireland, on Monday, Sept. LIST, 1884,
precisely at noon to come to New
York. The two ships met at exactly
half way between the two places.
Will some little boy or girl in War
rem county write to me, and tell which
ship made the best time?
Did you observe that the first severe
frost began to come on the night of
October 23d, just 101 days from the
time the first katydids were heard?
Here is another item of which hope
you will "think."
A Meridian Congress has lately been
held in Paris. 1t has also held meets
ing in London, in Washington, and in
Philadelphia. Twenty.one nations
have been represented in this Congress.
One object which this Congress has in
view, is to fix upon some place where
the day shall begin. To understand
this, you must remember that while
you are walking to school on Monday
morning, the little boys and girls in
England and France, have been home
to dinner, and are walking back to
school in the afternoon; therefore,
Monday must have commenced a little
more than five hours sooner in those
countries than it did here.
Now, can some little boy or cir
write to me, and tell why it is impor
tant, in business affairs, that all ma
tions should have some fixed place
where Jan. LIST, 1885 shall begin, anG
that that day shall be the same in al
parts of the world?
If you do not understand this, write
to me, and will explain it in the
STANDARD. Do not be afraid to write

Business in almost every department
is dull. Whether this is caused by
the pending elections or not we cannot
say. We'shall hope. for a revival of
business within the next Is or 20 days.
No change in grain. Nothing doing
in either wheat or corn. Dried fruit
is very dull with not much better pros
poets for an advance soon. Green APP,
plies are low on account Of competition
with Northern apples which are supe-
rior to ours on account of better hand
ling, and keep better. Whether prices
will be better soon or not we can't say.
Eggs are in demand at from 15c to
Ice. McMinnville is likely to be a
good egg market the present season.
If our dealers should continue to pay
Nashville prices for eggs, it will be to
the interest Of this and adjoining coun>
ties to sell their eggs at this place.
Poultry and eggs are nearly always
in demand at fair prices.

london TRUTH

fI.ondon Truth,
announced last week that the Queen
Is about to make o new will. Her Maj
esty possesses an immense fortune. The
estate OF Osborne is at least five times
as valuable as 1t was when it was pur-
chased by the Queen and Prince Albert
about forty years ago. The Balmoral
property Of Her Majesty now extends
over 10000 acres. Claremont was
granted to the Queen for life in 1866,
with reversion TO the country, and Her
Majesty purchased the property out
right three years ago for f7s, 900. Prob
ably its market value is not much under
fI50,000. The Queen also possesses
some property at Coburg, and the Prin-
cess Hohenhlohe left her the Villa Ho-
heulohe at Baden, one of the best resi-
dences in the place. With regard to
personal property, Mr. Nield lett the
Queen over f500, 900. and the property
left by the Prince Consort is believed to
have amounted to nearly f600. 600; but
the provisions of his will have been kept
a strict secret, aud the document has
never been proved" The Queen must
also have saved a vast sum out OF her in.
come, which has always been very well
managed. Since the death OF the Prince
Consort the general administration OF
the Queens private affairs has been con-
fded to Lord Sydney. who is consum-
mate man of business.
