This 1.-THE refusal of the Lexington conven-

questions before the ballotting] is fair
sample of the manner in which the Demo-

Here was made demand to know, before a
candidate were selected, how he would stand
on these important questions, if elected
Highland Recorder, (Rep.)
Not at all; it is ''tair sample of the
manner" In which every Republican nomi-
mating convention has been conducted in
Virginia. Will our contemporary name one
Republican convention in Virginia that
ever called on the aspirants to define their
positions in person after a platform had
been adopted and before balloting, or at
any time during the session until after the

First. While we recognise the necessity
for such revision of the tariff as may be
Gecessary to correct its inequalities, yet
We are opposed to any reduction in the
rates of duty upon foreign imports that
will injuriously affect our own Industries
Or lend to a reduction in the price of labor,
and especially are we opposed to putting
raw materials on the free list.
second. We are earnestly in favor of
lepaallng the entire system of the internal
revenue laws.
Third. We recognize it to be both the
right and the duty of the General Govern
Ensnt to aid in educating it's citizens, and
We are, therefore, In favor of the Blair
Bialr bill Or some similar benefcent
~ easure.
Fourth. We are IN favor of the CONT
nhed coinage of silver.
Fifth. That after the demands of the
government have been met, any surplus
lnoney that may be left in the Treasury of
the Un1tee 55ates be applied to the reduc-
tion of the national public debt, thereby
stopping the interest.
Sixth. That the nominee of this conyen-
tion is expected to advocate the principles
announced in these resolutions.

The funeral of Samuel J. Tilden was
very like his life. Though the President
of the United States and his cabinet were
present, it was as quiet and plain as that
of private citizen. and the interment
took place in the little Presbyterian c5me-
tary at the village of New Lebanon. His
life had been spent in the service of the
people, and when his will was read after
his death, it was found that of his enor-
nous fortune of ten millions of dollars, he
had left seven millions for the benefit and
improvement of the people, leaving only
a third for his relatives.

There is no foolishness about 'sJim
Bumgardner," no disposition to quarrel
over bubbles where the interests of the
people are at stake, and this is the kind of
men the South wants to represent her in
Congress. Men who appreciate that there
is something more in the catalogue of a
congressman's duty than to split hairs
over nice questions in political science.
Mr.. Bumgardner is true and tried Dem
ocrat, and belongs to the majority element
that believes in Democratic doctrine. pure
and simple. To this end we may always
expect to find him casting his vote and
using his influence in behalf of those
measures which are for the best interests
of the people. Mr.. Bumgardner is a tariff
reformer, but not of the Morrison stripe.
He believes in a practical adjustment of
the tariff so as to afford protection to
American Industries, and at the same time
relieve the people of the onerous taxation
imposed by a Republican system of tariff
Mr.. Bumgardner believes in the right
eousness and c0nstitutlonality of Federal
aid to education in the States, and will
give his support to such measure as the
Blair educational bill. In word our can
, didate is a practical man, who will escnew
fame for practical service to his constiJu-
of our columns we earnestly bespeak for
him the cordial support of the Democrats
in the counties of Allegheny, Bath, and
Highland.
rFrom the Lynchburg Virgnian.
The selection of Capt. James Bumgard-
ner by the Democratic Convention of the
10th district to succeed Hon. j. r. Tucker,
is most excellent one. He is q true and
tried Democrat, an accomplished courteous
gentleman, fast, unfiinching friend, of
the most unreproachable character and
the highest sense of honor, fine lawyer,
fluent speaker, and universally popular.
He will poll a large number of Republican
votes in Augusta and the Valley counties,
and will be triumphantly elected.
