yadd,Il or Wise?

WIN YOU desert your iong.tried, faithful
representative In Congress, and, going over
10 The enemy, vote fol- Judge wADDILL !
We answer for you, No. You have tested
GEopGE d. WISE, and you well know what
manner Of man be is. Will you fall to send
him back 10 Washington, there to meet ms
aptae opist OF the last session, the bellieerent
RopTKlIE, Of Maine. whom our congress
man once "scourged 10 his dungeon"
but whom, nevertheless, bis constituents
have returned to the House OF Representa-
tiyes-. possibly that he may have m oppor-
tunity OF "getting even" with GEORGE ID.
WysEs Let us accept the challenge OF the
Blsinsjtes In Maine. and have our gallant
defender at his post during the next Con.
eress, ready to meet all corners. And by
the WHY, let us ask what Judge WApDILL
would do In case his ally MIR. BoUrELLE
should make such n speech In the next Con-
gress rs that to which GEORGE WISE replied
IN the last Congresss Would the Judge
rise In his place and excoriate that dlstin-
guisbed Blaineites Hardly. Surely we
are not going TO allow the Republicans in
Coperess TO crow over the defeat of GEORGE
u. WISE.
We have another question 10 ask Judge
WADDnL, and we think 1t is one that
ought to be put to him wherever he makes
a speech, and this question IL, Whether he
intends to secure the passage by the next
Congress OF the bill introduced by Hon.
JOIN s.. WISE in 1884 to repeal the rdUR-
MAN Iawi Judge WADDIIL owes his nomi-
nation to Mt. John s. WISE II TO any one
man. He could not have been nominated
had that gentleman opposed his Domina-
ton, On the Sth Of January, 1884, Mr.. j.
s. WISE introduced into the House OF Rep
restn,stiycs the following bill:
"a Bill TO REPEAL SECTION . OF An ACT
PASSED JUNE 80. 1879. ENTITLED AN
ACT MAKING APPROPRIATIONS FOR GER
TAIN JUDICIAL EXPENSES FOR THE Gov
ERSNEST FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED
JUNE 80, 1880, AND FOR OTTER FUR
PosEs.'"
GRE Il enacted by the Senate and House
of Representatives Of the United States OF
Imeriod, ia Congress assembled, That see
ton OF an act passed June 30, 1879, enti-
tied 'aB act making appropriations ior GER
tain judicial expenses for the SoSernment
for tie fiscal year ended June 30, 1881, ana
for other PURPOSES be, and the same II
hereby, repealed
MIR. THURMAN had been compelled to have
his bill engrafted upon an appropriations
bill In order TO get 1t through Repuoie'n
Senate. That's the reason IL Is described IS
II Is In MIR. wIsE's bill.
Is Judge wAppEHdr " favor of passing
Mr.. SW1sr's jury billy OF that bill the
Baltimore Sun has spoken rs follows:
"Mr. Wise's bill would have again nut 1t
in the power OF the partisan United states
marshals in the South 10 constitute Their
iuries OF Republicans only. The bill was
Introduce months before the last preslden-
tiaI election, and ut a time when MIR. Wise
and his friends doubtless had no idea that a
Democrat would be elected"
We ask now, as we asked last year. does
the reader know what the THURMAN law Is /
II Is the law which saved Il. b. MUNFoan
and n number OF others OF the best citizens
Of Richmond from one of the most crde
prosecutions which anybody ever com
nenced In a Federal cour, In Virginia. ID,
you recollect how JOIN 5. WISE tried u
convict the gentlemen referred to OF crime
against tbe elective franchise. and TO haV
them sent to the penitentiaryf DO you re
collect that II was because he had becom
offended with them for having done 10
much. as he thought. towards securing
large msjority for MASSEY over WISE /
this el.yy He failed TO convict them, bu
he would hardly have failed had bis bi
previously become law. And we also as
once more, Is Judge WADDnL in favor
that bill:
The THURMAN law provides In effect th:
Jurors shall be selected equally from II
two parties. It requires the names OF tn
persons from whom the jurors are to b
drawn TO be placed in box by the clerk
the court and person Of the oppo,ii
party TO that OF the clerk. An admirabI
law 1t l., and ne have never ceased to fe'
grateful TO the distinguished Ohio Senate
that he performed such service for II
people OF his native state.
Let no petty considerations induce 20
TO neglect your duty TO vote for GEORGE
WISE. You cannot plead that he was ~
fairly nominated nominated indeed again
bis own protest. We cannot all have OF
frst choice. Every one OF us cannot q
WAYS have u candidate who is our person
frierd. Is GEORGE ID. WISE hcnest!
he capable! Is he faithful? These que
tons point out the Jefiersonian test (
merit. Stand by him, not for his sake, bI
for the FAKE Of your country and especial
for the sake az old yirgini1, and Of Rel
mord.
