was made Of ivory white satin painted
with cluster OF field daisies. above
which, in the left-hand corner, was the

MFR. Randall Handled by a Con-
stituent. ..a,y,r

June 22.-Editor NORM
ing NeaeS: Your view of Randall's De-
mocracy is not only logical but correct,
because it Is based upon facts which
speak { as they have spoken for twenty
years J, IN condemnation of mis- course as
professed Democrat.
We, who know him, and are thoroughly
familiar with=his surroundings, have
never had but one opinion of hin, and
that is that he never was Democrat, but,
on the contrary, has always upheld the
extreme high protective tariff doctrines
of the opposition.
The inside history of his continuous
representation Is interesting only because
it lays bare the receptions and trickery
OF partisan politics and exposes the
shameless betrayal OF the wishes Of the
people.
1t is a notorious fact that Randall owes
his seat, or rather that be has beeu per-
mitted to misrepresent the Third district,
solely on The grace of Simon Cameron.
When that sly old fox gerrymandered the
Congressional districts OF this State, he
made the Third overwhelmingly Demo
cratic" and the other four in this city
correspondingly Republican.
Not that he might not have sent a solid
Republican delegation, but he preferred
to have an OStenStbLe Democrat, like Ran
dali, whom he could use as a foil to disor-
ganize the Democracy on the vital and
distinctive issues that divide the parties.
How wisely this old sehemer calculated,
the history OF the last twenty years in
Congress fully shows. 1t is openly con-
fessed by Randalps apologists here, in ex-
tenuatiOn for mis- course, that any other
course 1oOutd long ago haze deprjved him Of
has seat.
And it has come to this that the great
Democratic party Of the country is to be
subOrdinated to the selfish, personal in
terests of man who confesses that he
holds his seat solely at the sutfrance Of
the Republican ring managers, and by
doing their bidding, and yet he has the
effrontery TO assume to dominate the
councils of the party and to shape its
public policy, contrary to its lifelong
principles and its solemn pledges to the
country.
To submit to such brazen dictatlon
would be not 0plu political suicide but
political ddRhlGti0R as loeU.
If the Democracy can't live without
Randall it ought To die, for it would have
nothing to live for, therefore let the pro-
cessicn move right along. JEFFERSON.

RICHMOND, VA, June 24.-The men,
bers of the branch Of the City Council
elected last month on the reform ticket
have had several meetings to arrange
plans of procedure when the new Council
meets July l. At the first meeting reso-
luton was adopted requiring atwo-thIrds
vote in the election of all city officers to be
elected by The Council. At subsequent
meetings all efforts TO make nomi-
nations failed, owing to the
fact that the eight Republi-
cans elected from jackson ward
did not vote with the majority, thus keep
ing any candidates from getting the nee
essary two-thirds. At to-nights caucus,
however, coalition was formed and q
number of officers, including the City
Clerk, Attorney, Sergeant-at-Arms OF
Council Police Justice and others were
nominated. This action will result in
oustIng all the incumbent Democratic of.
ficials elected by the Council.
