This Fairs Campaign.

The importance OF the election this
fall can hardly be overestimated or too
often repeated. The Governor of the
State, the ant-Governor, the At
torney- General, the Auditor of Public
Accounts, the Treasurer of the State,
and their numerous appointees; the
administrators of the schools, the
judges Of the county and corporation
courts and their important appointees,
and the judges of the circuit court.
are all to be selected by the victors OF
this falls campaign.
1t would be hard to picture more
deplorable state Of affairs than would
be likely to ensue upon the success OF
the Republican party in the State.
Every Office, high and low, would be
filed at the dictation of one man, and
would be dictated with a view not OF
securing the best material for the
place, but with a view of rewarding
dirty partisan work, or Of securing it
for the future.
Upon Virginia would be brought all
these many evils which her sister south
ern States suffered under carpet-bag rule,
and which she has narrowly escaped
once or twice. But for the patriotism
Of Massey and his Big-Four coadjutors
we would to-day be groaning under a
dishonest and prohigate administration
Of affairs, with increased taxation and
a Frustrated school system. BY our
unfortunate slip we would recede to the
corrupt times that followed in the wake
Of the war, after having for these many
years successfully evaded them.
In the abnormal condition that since
the war has existed in southern politics
the Democratic party can never afford
in the face Of an oncoming election to
sit still with folded hands in the as
sured confidence of victory. There is
arrayed against it by natural instinct
the serried rank of ignorant and preju-
diced recently enfranchised voters, and
allied with them are the freebooters in
politics who thrive upon tho misfar-
tunes of a State.
The large vote that in recent cleo
tons this party has been able to dis
play is a sign-post to the Democratic
party that its margin is not sufficiently
large in order to make any mistakes,
either in the men whom its appoints
standard-bearers or in the principles of
its platform.
Its ablest and pureSt men should be
forced to the front and persistent self
boomers requested to take back seat.
We want men of recognized power in
the lead, whose nomination will en-
sure an aggressive and active cam
paign, and not men, from whose nomi-
nation to the day Of election, the party
will be engaged in defending or in urg-
ing their latent good qualities upon
the attention Of the people.
We want platform of principles that
will express liberal and progressive SEN
timents and that will afford a broad
enough area for all interested in good
government and honest methods to stand
upon.
If the party puts forth its best men
upon such a platform we feel assured
that the victory will already be won.--
Winchester Times.

quests may jostly be said 10 be The
change ID shc attitude Of the Duke Of
Marlborough. There is no love lost
between the two brothers, and when
Inc Duke went to Blenheim last week
Il was quietly whispered that he "had
4 knife In his boot for Lord Ram
doIph. Then when Lady Randolph
took up her quarters at the Bear Hotel
instead Of at Blenheim the breach
seemed obvious. But she saw the
Duke, and then came denial that he
was hostile, but had pledged strict i'm
partially. Next came the statement
that he would loan bis horses and car
riages fer the Randolphs' use on Fri
day, but they did not then wear the
pink. Last evening it was announced
that Lady Randolph had changed her
quarters to Blenheim and that the Duke
had gone to London to better keep his
promise of impartiality. To-day there
is no doubt she is working the whole
great Blenheim power for all it is
worth. The Woodstockers chuckle as
they recount this last tribute to her
prowess, and ] ought gratefully to adj
NIT that the popular admiration Of her
has been reflected here to-day in the
generous treatment Of one Of her coun-
trymen. Tonight there seems to be
no doubt Lord Randolph will have a
hundred majority or more. His refusal
to come to Woodstock might easily
have beaten him if not more than over
balanced by the indefatigable labors Of
his American wife. 49,
LORD CHURCHILL ELECTED.
LONDON, July 3.-The election in
Woodstock to-day has resulted in the
return Of Lord Randolph Churchill.
At the close Of the polls the vote
stood: Churchill, 532; Corrie Grant,
4(5.

A Wild Man Captures an Indiana
Town.

A North Vernon Gnd.) telegram says
Great excitement was occasioned here
this morning by the capture Of wild
man named Samuel Melvin, of Ken
lucky, who became suddenly ferocious,
and at place on Greensburgh street
held at bay all the farm-wagons coming
into town. He had bowie-knife, and
threatened to kill all who attempted
70 pass. Some twenty-five wagons
were stopped by him. He at
tackled Tony Gasper's wagon, and
turned the horses, and wagon
over, nearly killing the horses. Then
be attacked Casper with his knife, in
fiicting wounds, but not serious. For
three hours he held scores of people in
the narrow lane, and in the most vicious
manner attacked any one near him.
Finally Lon King, Andy Musser, and
Tom McAdsms closed in on him. For
Q time it seemed that the man would
kill them all; but he was brought down
by powerful blow by Musser. They
tied him with ropes and carried him
away in = wagon. Fally five hundred
people Witnessed the scene.

HARDENED LIVER.

Five years ago broke down with kidney
and liver complaiptand rheumatism.
Since then have been unable TO be about
at all. My liver became hard like wood:
my limbs were pulled up andEhlied with
water.
All the best physicians agreed that no
thing could cure me. I resolved to try Hop
Bitters; have used seven bottles: the hard
ness has all gone from my liver, the swelling
from my limbs and 10 has scOrked a miracle
in my case: otherwise l would have been
