As predicted on Monday the boys went
out to Ivy City and have helped to pay the
expenses of the boolimakers during the
past week; but remembering THE CRuTC's
advise, the wise ones provided themselves
with little Of Tharp's choice whisky and
succeeded in warding OFF the chills, which
would otherwise have been caused by the
cool weather Of Thursday and Friday.
They lost their money this time, but they
retained their health.

4" Traitors"


The Republican candidate for Lieu
tenant-G Governor OF New York, Mr..
CARR, talks as follows
Are you willing to be governed by
traitors--by men who sought to dissolve
the Union? For myself, l am willing
TO forgive and forget, but ! am not will
ing TO condone or to reward traitors, as
the President of the United States has
been doing ever since he has been in Of
fee. II seems to me that Mr.. Cleve-
land in selecting his Cabinet and the Of
ficers of the Government made mis-
that he did not pick up the roster Of the
Union army instead Of the roster OF the
rebel army from which to make his Sc
lectiOns.'
For the man who thus denounces the
southern people FORAKER is now
stumping New York, and the same
FORAKER will soon be in Virginia.
Will be endorse in this State the user
of that language? Notice that there
can be no question here as between the
southern Democrats and the southern
people.

Ohio.

As we understand it, the Democrats
have secured three majority in the
lower house Of the Ohio Legislature.
As to the Senate, the Washington Post
says:
"Outside of Hamilton county the
Senate is Republican by one majority,
and the aim of the Republicans in pre-
venting the issue of certificates is to let
this Republican Senate pass upon the
Hamilton-county senator's as an original
question. II the four Democratic sena-
tors from that county receive their
certificates, to which they are entitled
on the face of the returns, they and
their Democratic colleagues will con-
stitute majority of three, and so, it
is assumed, the Senate will remain
Democratic.
But the Republicans will have ma
jority on joint ballot, and will probably
reflect SHERMAN, though it is possible
there may be a long contest as there
was last winter in Illinois.

DAN WILLIE.

poiitics-The Democrats Organized-Tewn
Improvements.
Correspondence ofthe Richmond Dispatch.l
OCTOBER "a, 1885.
The last tobacco report from this
market shows up handsomely and was
q sort of forerunner of good business.
The merchants are all busy, and the
fall trade is the best we have had for
some years past.
Danyille is in sad need Of place Of
amusement, and an effort is making to
build new opera-house. These peo-
pie are always so busy that they do not
look much after amusement, but there
are some persons who love to cheer
their hearts, and these have organized
q social club for entertainment. 1t bids
fair to do much good.
The Independent club here is well
organized. and is supported by many
of the most influential colored men.
The fact is, that there are numbers Of
colored men here who own property
some Of them as much as several thou
sand dollars-and the shoe pinches
them as tight as it does the whites.
They are supporting the Independents.
A cOlored preacher has sneered at the
club, but it gill not be put down with
q sheer.
The Democracy is we'll organized,
and Colonel Dicks club iiourisheS.
Chatham will have big time on the
Goth, and the club will attend in a
body. Patrick also makes merry on
the 9th, and the silver-tongue Daniel
will make a speech.
The Democratic canvassers in this
county are hard at work, and making a
vigorous canvass every day. They will
continue TO speak every day until the
election eve.
The electric-light wires are now being
strung, and in short time the city will
be ablaze with the bright light.
The City Council some time ago de-
cided to put in a system Of sewerage,
to be some six miles in length. New
pipe has arrived, and the work will be-
gin in the near future.
There is no doubt that the so-called
"Danyille fever" is due entirely to
| imperfect sewerage, and it is confidently
believed that the new sewer will relieve
us Of anything like malaria in the city.
1t is asserted by gentleman from
Henry county that the Mahoneites are
offering to swap Wise for their county
candidates, and are making every effort
TO elect their ticket; but it is conf
IDENTIFY believed that the county will go
Democratic. ELLA.

4 beautifully illustrated poem.
The (lIfgnpchtes.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Tread with much pleasure in your
issue of Saturday your brief but pun
gent editorial on "Oligarchies." The
Republican idea seeks to make this
Government of majorities merely in
stead of what the fathers designed it
one Of constitutional checks and bal
ances. The principle of the Republican
party is boSsism, since the party itself
had its origin in the attempt Of the
North to boss the South without regard
to any constitutional limitation what
ever. When Mr.. John Sherman wraps
the bloody shirt around him and
shrieks about reducing the repre-
sentation Of the South, let us
point him to the six States Of
New England, who, with a popula-
ton Of only 3,6sS,s9S, WELD six times
as much power in the Senate as the
great Democratic State of New York,
with . population Of 5,0S2,S7l. If
this country is to be made a nation in
the sense of consolidation, let the
wise men Of the Union adopt Mr.. Mad
ison's proposition in the Convention of
1887, and form the Senate on the basis
Of popular majorities, like the House of
Representatives Then every State will
be represented equally and fairly. New
England keeps the Republican party in
power in the Senate when the solida-
rity Of her interests entities her,
on every principle of reason and
justice to only two senator's. In 1889
William Grayson, one Of our two first
Virginia senator's, wrote from Congress
that "John Adams and his fellow
statesmen from New England" were
SO in love with stiles, dignities, and
preeminences," that he believed that il
the question was left to them "they
would decide in favor of a monarchy
tomorrow" There is nothing like the
equality between white men there even
now as exists in Virginia.
In the early days of the republic the
principle Of the rule in New England
was King "0ne ~; now it is that of
King " Many" q. one time crystalizing
into the person Of Boss Blaine, Of
Maine, and at another disintegrating
into the unrestrained license Of mob
rule.
Down with the "oligarchies," Mr..
Hale and down with the aristocracy,
monarchy, and unfair representation Of
New England! LYON G. TyLEa.

from abroad for the very good reason
that his supply at home was a small
one. The Democrats are rich in speak

if FORAKER speaks in Staunton to-
morrow. let STAPLES, or DANIEL, or
