HON. JOHN s. BARBOUR.

We publish elsewhere the brief, modest,
and practical letter of John s. Barbour,
retiring from the service of his constituent
cy of the Eighth Congressional District
AS we will all call to mind with gratitude,
this patriotic Democrat still retains his
place as Chairman of the State Committee
of bis party, and his present withdra wal is
only from the position of congressman
from his district. May he live long to lead
the Virginia Democracy to victory and to
10y token of their gratitude, as well
~ to render them invaluable service, in a
seat in the United States Senate. The
more one familiar with the modern po-
litlcal managers, contemplates Mr.. Bar
bour. the more does that gentleman stand
forth from among them model political
manager. wise statesman and an unset
fish patriot.

Mrs. Cleveland's First Appearance
Brilliant Scene.

The reception of President and Mrs.
Cleveland at the White House Monday
night was the most brilliant social event
of this administration. The state apart
ments were tastefullY and appropriately
decorated for the occasion, and the Marine
Band present as usual. At nine O clock the
presidential party descended the private
stairway in the following order: The Pres.
ieent escorting his wife, Secretary and
Mrs. Endicott, Secretary and Mrs Whit
ney, Postmaster General and Mrs. Vilas.
They entered the Blue Parlor, where the
President formally presented his wife to
the members of the diplomatic corps and to
Prince Augusta Leopoldo, OF Brazil. Mrs.
Cleveland wore her wedding dress, which
has been so often described. 1t was al
tered for the occasion, and instead of be-
ing high in the neck, it was ''V" shaped,
front and back, exposing her beautiful
neck and arms. She wore for the first
| time the famous diamond necklace we'd
| ding present from her husband and large
corsage bouquet of white roses, and was
pronounced the most beautiful woman
who has ever presided over the White
| House. Mrs. Cleveland stood at her hus-
band 3 right hand and received her guests
| with charming ease and grace, and imme-
diately scored grand social success. Mrs.
| Endicott stood next in the receiving Ii ne.
| She was attired in white satin gown
| trimmed at the neck and cuffs with rich
black lace and side draperies of the same
| material. At her neck she wore a mag
nifcent diamond brooch and black ostrich
| tips for head dress. Mrs. Whitney wore
: rich white satin en- train, cut low at the
| neck and shoulders, trimmed with sprays
I of white flowers. Around her neck was
| string of diamonds. Mrs. Villas was beau
| tifully atJired in white nuns yelling and
| lace, trimmed with natural flowers.
There was but one opinion regarding
| Mrs. Cleveland, and that was she will or
| nament the White House as it never was
orLamented before. The ladies of the
| diplomatic corps gazed at her long and
earnestly, and finally concluded that she
was one of the most beautiful women they
ever beheld. The American ladies looked
| at her with pride. and declared that she
surpassed any foreign beauty ever intro
| duced into official society at Washington.
| Old and young men alike were exceeding
ly extravagent in their praises Of her
| beauty.

1t goes without saying that it is an able

the Republican party.

"CALL HERE BEFORE PURCHAS-
ING ELSEWHERE"

"CALL HERE BEFORE PURCHAS-
ING ELSEWHERE"
We know of no situation to which this
stereotyped advertising phrase is more ap-
plicable. than the present attempt being
made to convince the people Of Highland
that they can trade to better advantage in
Harrisonburg than in Staunton. We sup
pose that the Highland merchants see
emsef7es at a gasse>i:1A, Psshhsy
lave seen and practiced On it for long
time-the fact that goods can be bought
cheaper at a market that has railroad
competition to all the great markets, than
at wayside town on one railroad whose
freight rates are at the mercy of one cor
poration. Staunton merchants had an
experience, lasting over many years, of
what it is to have but one outlet il
the shape Of a railroad to the world. They
know well enough, having experienced the
situation, that wayside market cannot
compete with one that has two roads cross
ing it. We cannot recall his exact figures
but remember being told by Maj. Nelson
81. Hotchkiss, that after the arrival OF
taco roads in Staunton, her merchants
saved over $50, 1000 year in freights on a
few lines of goods alone. We suppose that
if all lines were counted in now-iG was
ten years ago when be gave US this infor-
mation-taking the growth of our trade
and the immense increase in our freight
age, that Staunton does not save less than
5000 900 year by having two outlets to
market. If the Highland merchants coul,
read some Of the phillipics of Riddleber-
ger, then an editor in Woodstock, over
the freight rates the B. & o. exacted from
Its wayside towns. they would realize how
much of it they are expected to pay if they
were to carry their trade to Harisonburg.
Where man ca rries his produce he buys
his goods and there he has to help the
mer chant to pay the freight. 1t Harrl-
sOnburg ever gets the railroad projected
and partially built which connects her
with the great markets, the B. & o. will
have to let 90 her windpipe and she will
become dangerous competitor of Staun-
ton for the Highland trade, but until
that she need not become an applicant.
unless upon the basis that the Highland
merchants, who are as keen traders as are
anywhere in the State Of Virginia, can be
made to lose sight of their own interests
Harrisonburg is nice town and her mer-
chants are most pleasant gentlemen, but
for the present, and perhaps for years TO
come they are IN state of mercantile peon-
age to the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and
cannot help themselves.
Theinvitation to the Highland merchants
to assume the burden of several thousand
dollars more freightage in their bills will
hardly be accepted. They will find with
regard to Stanton, that for many years
yet, if they want to save money, they had
better "call here before purchasing else
where.''

p TACTICAL VALUE OF Il DEM
OCRATTC A ADMINISTRATION

The Grand Old Party had one defect
that always made it unpopular in the eyes
of the South. 1t could keep order in the
South with troops. 1t could turn lieu
tenant ard squad Of men into a State
capitol and tuf q ssnocratic legislature
out. 1t could surround every voting pre-
cinct with a corporal's guard of the boys in
blue uron the call of arepublican candidate
who couldn't see his way clear to a MAORI
ty. 1t could keep unsuspecting Europeans
out of danger by informing them through
official utterances and speeches in Con-
gress that the South was the dark forest of
bloodshed and lawlessness. It could give
every government contract.to the North
including the work that was located in
the South. 1t could convince the capital
at the North that the South was no place
for safety either to the investment or
even the person of the capitalist. 1t could
give the Southern States rest-the rest of
poverty, OF idleness, of hopelessness, of
despair. And yet with all those untold
blessings, the South somehow suspected
defect in the grand old party. AT last the
Democrats began to look up. State after
State, district after district, and after
while they made great burst and car
ried in Democratic President. All
along this road, things had been getting
better-a little more employment, little
more hope, little more money every year
the more the Republican party went
down the better times got. Last year,
the first year of the Administration of
Democratic President, the amount of cap
ital and capital stock invested in the
Southern States in new enterprises amour
ted to Sixty Millions of Dollars It is
great advantage to the South to have a
National Administration that treats and
speaks of all porto ms of the country alike.
The very fact that under this administra-
tien many of our ministers abroad are
from the Southern section of the Union,
and that all of them are as friendly to it
as to the North lis of incalculable material
advantage to that section. Our minister
to England is a Vermonter, but man who
is looking for investments In ores would
not be told that Virginia or any Of the
Southern States containing these ores
were unsuited by reason Of disturbed local
government for investment. The South
ern section can now have a favora BILE
hearing all over Europe, the centre of the
worlds capital. And, still more, it now
gets, despite the grand old party, very
general and friendly hearing in the North
ern part of this country for which we
have been working ever since the war
closed. The defect Of the dominance of
the Republican party was that it brought
no money of any account to the South
and by its treatment of political questions
prevented its coming and injured our ma
terial interests.

TWO NEGROES HANGED.
Although Brutal Murderers. They
Had Homes of HeaYeu.

WINCHESTER. Va, June 4.-Wes Hon.
esty and Tably Banks were hanged at 9:2299
this morning. The criminals walked to the
scaffold. Banks began to tremble violently,
but Honesty stood firm on the trap door.
The Moody hymn, ''There is light in the
Valley" was then sung by request, both
joining in loudly. Honesty said: Il thank
God L am converted. l am going to heaven.
No mans blood rests on my soul. l have
not to answer for it, l thank all the Off
GERS and ministers for their kindness"
Banks said: 81 am not guilty of what is
put on me, l want to meet all my friends
in heaven" Their arms were then pinioned,
the black cap drawn over their heads and
in loud voice both cried out Good bye!
good byev The trap was then sprung.
THE CRIME
for which Honesty and Banks were hanged
was the murder, on the night of November
IA, 1884, of Joseph McFaul, youth Is years
of age. A large Democratic procession took
place here on that night. and the prisoners
that they would crack the skull of some Dem
ocrats before morning. McFaul was
Slightly built, peaceable young man. Hon.
esty and Banks were powerful, full grown
negroes. They waylaid McFaul at the mouth
of an alley on Main street. He had nothing

walking stick. The negroes pressed upon
him and he drew back from them and ordered
them to keep away. They then rushed upon
him. Honesty collared him and pushed him
against house at the mouth of the alley,
and Banks cried out, 'stick TO him.. McFaui
defended himself as best he could with his
walking stick. Honesty was facing McFaul
and Banks got behind him. Honesty drew
back and hurled q rock at McFaul, striking
him ON the left temple. AS he reeled across
the street, Banks struck him with some weap-
on he held in his hands. McFaul went to his
boarding house and was found dead in bed
next morning with his skull fractured.
