Republican Virginia.

By far the most important political
event OF the year was the merging of
the Read uster-C Coalition party of Vir-
ginia into the regular Republican party
ut the State Convention. Ever since
the reconstruction of the seeded States
it has been the constantly expressed
wish OF patriotic men in the North that
the color line in politics should cease in
the South. 1t WAS inevitable that the
great body of the newly-enfranchisel
voters should attach themselves to the
Republican party. and as long as their
civil and political tights are not full v
recognized by the Democrats of the
South they will not vote the Democratic
ticket. Where they are not permitted
to vote for Republican candidates they
generally refrain from voting at all.
An unexpected concurrence of local
events in Virginia has broken the color
line. A large body of white Democrats
broke away from the regular party Or

which patriotic Republicans have been
laboring these many years. and it seems
about to be realized in Virginia.
We are not Indifferent to the fact that
there is a faction of so-caled Straight
out" Republicans in the State who have
heretofore opposed the coalition, and
may even yet attempt to set up an
Electoral ticket of their own As Q
matter of course this can only be done
for the benefit of the Demo ratio party.
and those who lead the movement will
receive as much consideration from the
BOurbons as if they came Over in q body

revolutionary programme could not
have been carried out by the Legisla-

OF Republican ''StraightOurs." and if
they chose to continue the alliance they

CHURCH RECEPTION.
Enjoyable sociabIe Given by the Con-
gregationalIsts.

About n hundred people attended the
sociable given by the Congregationalists
at their church last night. The entertain
ment proved to be a rare treat and waa
worthy of the patronage which it re-
ceived. The exercises were interesting
and were of such a character as to excite
the attention of the audience.
The instrumental duet, "Warblings at
Eve was executed with tsste and ex-
preston by Misses Dora and Bell Stanley.
Mrs Rees Williams very gracefully
sang Song of the Sea Shell" Mr.
Williams has a sweet, musical voice and
always pleases her audience.
The instrumental solo, 'Polonaise Mill
taire, was finely executed by Miss Par
ker. She is more than the ordinary pianist
and has the delicasy of touch, brilliancy of
execution and sympathetic expression
which only the educated musician pos
sesses.
Miss Mary Quinby read Bob Burdette' S
"Froward Duster'' in a pleasing manner
and merited the applause of the audience.
This closed the programme and the bal
ance of the evening was spent in social
visiting. 1t is the intention ofthe Society
to have entertainments offs similar char

THE OIL FIELDS.
Working Commenced in the Rattle
snake District.
A Special Agent of the Department
of the Interior
Pays the District a Visit Anxious
Claimants.

1t was stated in yesterdays LEADER
that the Denver Company had commenc.
ed boring for oil on their claims in the
Rattlesnake Mining District and a report
er sought Cy Tba, who has just returned
therefrom and gained some additional in
formation on the subject
The claims of the company are located
on the northeast fork of Poison Spider
Greek. are about two miles northwest 81
Dodge City and twenty miles north Of
Rawlins. The district is about twenty
five miles wide and one hundred miles in
length, and contains all the indications
that there is an abundance Of oil in that
locality. 1t has not been prospected 70
any great extent and there are compar
atiyely but few locations. At present
there IS no one prospecting in that vicin-
ity.
The machinery was shipped from Den
yer to Rawlins by railroad and then con-
veyed to the wells by wagons. The neces-
sary buildings were completed when the
machinery arrived and it was immediate
ally set up and operations began.
The company are now employing FIVE
men, but viii soon increased the force and
run night and day. This is the first at
tempt to obtain oil in the district by Dor
ing and the result Is watched with great
interest by those having claims in the
locality.
The Boutwell, party have several claims
in the district and are now sinking holes
on them. In the Spring they will prob
ably commence boring as their machinery
is now lying at Rawlins. Mr.. Iba is also
interested in some property in that locali-
ty and in the Spring will commence opera
tons with the machinery.
The prospecting season is nearly e
and all work, with the exception possibly
of that being done by the Denver Com
pany, will soon cease. The winters are
very were and the snow fall is very
heavy during the winter. Most of the
men, however, intend to go into winter
quarters and remain and are now prepar-
ing homes for that purpose.
Experts from London, New York and
Philadelphia have made examinations of
the oil and pronounce it to be the finest
lubricant in the world. 1t is perfectly
pure, containing no dirt or gritty substance
whatever. Considerable excitement was
caused in the district by the arrival of a
special agent of the Department of the
Interior. The object ofhis visit was to
investigate the validity of the titles under
which several companies hold, or claim to
hold, their claims. The result of his in
vestigation has not yet been made public,
but it is evident that there is great I'M
e~asiness felt by many of the claimants. 1t
is limited that some disclosures of a start
ling nature will be made and the district
may become the source ola rather vexa-
tious litigation. All that can be done is
to await his report to Secretary Teller,
which will be made in a short time.
