Within fourteen days OF the election
the quiet still prevails and the whispers
of apathy and indifference are heard
along the Democratic lines. There Is no
danger that Virginia is not Democratic,
but a great danger of failing to bring
out the Democratic vote. Have the peo-
ole forgotten the days Of Malone rule
and the humiliation of the honest people
of The States under the Arthur regime, or
do they think an election will win itself
for the Democrats simply because the
willy Radicals are organizing in silence =,
Time flies and procrastination seems
to double the weight Of Its curse with
the passing of neglected opportunities.

being remanded 10 worse state than the
worse days Of reconstruction.

The Presidents retaliation policy has
had a good effect in Canada
1t is not generally known that Canada
enjoyed the privilege of shipment OF
bonded goods across our territory but
denied similar privilege to our fishermen
who wanted to ship their packed fish in
bond across Canadian territory by rail
instead Of being forced to sail with the
cargo back 10 New England and then re-
turn to the fishing ground.
The Canadian Government has come
to a realization Of its false position I'M
der the treaty Of 1918 in Withholding the
transhipment privilege, and has an
nounced, day before yesterdy, in the
London, Ontario, Free Press, that it is
now ready to yield that vital privilege to
American fishermen. This is an almost
complete surrender, and has startled
even the Canadians.

OUR LIVE NEWSPAPER

The third volume of the TINES opens
its pages this morning, and We beg our
readers 10 take the trouble TO see how
our paper has developed from the single
shee, penny pspernp TO full sized eight
page newspaper published every day in
the week and completely filling the de-
msnd for such journal in Virginia.
The TIMES has grown steadily in pub
lie favor and In all the features of daily
paper, and a glance at its columns will
show that the business community has
recognized it as a frst-class newspaper
edited on the modern ideas of the pro-
fessiOn.
We wish the people Of Virginia to un-
derstand one thing first and foremost,
and that is that the RICHMOND DAILY
TINES will always have positive opin-
ion on all public affairs, and that it will
be the organ of an intelligent and con
servative public sentiment.
We stand by the Democratic party
not because of personal or partisan
preferences, but because the fundamental
principles Of Democracy represent the
safety and preservation Of our free inslitu-
tons, and now is the best time possible
for people to see the difference between
real, true American institutions and the
false snob and ring aristocracy of the
Republicans, or rather one should say
Radicals, for that is their only proper
name If there ever was time for the
people of the United States to put their
minds on vital question Of their own
welfare that time is now, and unless the
conservative and healthy ele
ments of politics are gathered
around the Democratic standard
the cause of free governm, Il will suffer
a defeat that will pu; US in the hands Of
the monopolist and combined corpora
tions and political rings such as nearly
brought us to ruin six years ago.
These are not only the views of the
Richmond TINES. They have been for a
month urged by the ablest statesmen in
our land
They apply generally to the country at
large. But they apply with terrible force
to the South. We have only had taste
OF the carpet Dagger in Virginia, but as
sure as the yirulent South hater, Benjs-
min Harrison, is elected President Of the
United States, so surely will we endure
the bitterness Of the worst days Of recon
struction doubly envenomed by the fail
ure of the Southern Radicals to secure
anything but the contempt Of their
people. =,
If the people will only open the third
volume Of the TIMES and keep its daily
numbers before them, they will see the
method whereby they may avoid the dan
gers set forth above.
The first method is for every Demo
crat to prepare to vote and make his
neighbors vote.
This is not a question of tariff in Vir-
ginia. Ii is question of self -preserys-
ton.

Tic Milking Of Cheap POOLS

The cheap libraries have given amuse-

it is the opinion Of the shrewdest men in
the trade that they have injured book
publishing. After all we are creatures
of habit. and we have become accls-
toned TO buying a novel for 20 or %
cents. People are unwilling to pay -
cents or dollar now. At % or % cents,
unless an enormous number Of copies are
sold, there is not much money fer the
author. nor in fact, for any one. Out
Of the cheap reprint has grown the sum
