A Staange Tariff Argument,

The Highland Recorder is a high tariff
paper and in its issue of the 10Th inst, il
has a long editorial on the subject, and in
that article it gives what purports to be tht
prices of articles in New York and Lon
don to show that the prices are higher in
England than in the United States. We dc
not acknowledge the truth of this except
for the sake of argument. Suppose. then,
that this is true. what benefit can tariff
duty be to this country? If goods are
cheaper here than in foreign countries,
they will not be brought from foreign coun-
tries to this. People do not take articles
to sell from high to low market.
Will the Recorder tell us the benefit to be
derived from tariff on goods that are
cheaper here than in foreign countries
The comparison of prices of articles by
name simply, as the Recorder gives them,
as for instance, an "oyercoat,' without
saying that they are of the same kind and
quality of material, size, style, Sc, is
about as reasonable as to say that "piece
of chalk" is cheaper here than in
England, without saying any thing about the
sizes of the pieces respectively. The argu-
ment of the Recorder is as amusing as it is
fallaoious and absurd.

THE CHECKERS" CONVENTION.

The CHECKERS" Convention was called to
order BY Gen. V. d. Groner
Mr.. d. F. Houston said that last night a
convention of Republicans was held here
and committee of twenty-five was ap.
pointed, which committee appointed an OK.
ecutive committee of three on contested
seats. He was member of that commit.
tee and also Mr.. Jacob Yost. He desired
to say that that committee could not dis.
charge the duties assigned them because OF
not having been allowed an opportunity to
do SO.
Other speeches were made. Wise in par
tlcular being very severe on Malone.
Col. d. F. Houston, of Roanoke, was
nominated and elected chairman of the
State Committee.
After the election of Colonel Houston
the convention proceeded to the election of
delegates to the Chicago convention. The
followsng were placed in nomination and
elected: =
Delegates at Large-Capt. r. 4. Paul,

gonery; S. NJ. Yost, of Staunton; Gen. v.
u. Groner, of Norfolk.

burg; William Mayo, of Westmoreland; J.
W. Porter, of Albemarle; Abel Hunter, of
Bedford. rs
Electors at Large-Ex- Governor Viii.
liam 4. Cameron and Hon. John F. Lewis.
Hon. John s. Wise moved that the plat
form ofthis convention be the platform to
be adopted at Chicago.
The convention adjourned at 2 O'Clock
Friday morning with three cheers for
James G Blaine.

AbOut Nr.'Blaiue.

1t is believed by many well informed
persons in both political parties that Mr..
Blame does not personally desire to make
another campaign as the leader of his party.
while he is by no means sverse to the thought
of being President. He fears the dreadful
ordeal of q canvass which will inc yitablv
cause the publication of all the old scandals
which were made 80 prominent before, and
Mr.. Blaine's family is not willing to submit
to this. 1t was this influence which con.
strained him to write the Florence letter.
assuming that it was a candid letter. II
Is believed also that his political and
personal friends, like Mr.. Reid and Mr.
Phelps, are determined that he shall b
nominated, as they see, they think, in him
the only chance Of success, and they do not
doubt that if strongly endorsed by . re-
nomination no will feel bound to accept.
IL Il contended on the other hand that FOR
Nun to accept now will expose him to the
Just criticism of having written the Florence
letter as trick to strengthen his own fol-
lowing; and his opponents, Mr.. Sherman
and others, will be greatly disaffssted, and
WIZ perhaps give but lukewarm support
to the ticket. Upon the whole thu prospect
for harmony and an enthusiastic campaign
does not seem very bright for the Repubii-
can party.-Norfolk Landmark.

The Democratic Convention.

The proceedings of the Democratic State
Convention held last week, which we
furnish at some length, will be read with
much interest. Not solitary jar occurred,
nor word of discomfort was uttered as the
business in hand came up for consideration.
Ability, prudence and patriotism guided
the deliberations of that fine representative
body of Virginians. Its methods and its
aims were in singular contrast to the tur-
bulent and schsming factions of the Repub-
lican party which, on the following day,
clashed vshemently against each other,
divided, and formed two separate organiza-
tions, each striving to control the political
power of the State. Our old and honored
leader is at the head of the forces, and
every man in his place. He asks but the
simple discharge of duty by every DEM
ocrat to insure triumphant victory next
November, in carrying the State with q
large majority for Cleveland and the re-
demption of the Democratic districts lost in
the contest of 1886. Organization should
commence at once with an infusion of the
old spirit which defies defeat. We should
not expect anything from the dissensions
of such party as the Republican is known
to be. The leaders of its factions in Vir-
ginia are fitting representatives of its want
of principle. Malone and Wise are the &C.
knowledged heads of the respective wings,
aud were floated into power ere they had
ceased to call themselves Democrats. The
party was in desperate straits for the want
of leaders, and the two of newly plighted
faith are now cracking their whips over
the heads of the old Captains and subalterns
who fall into line, with admiration for the
one and curses for the other as it seems
meet to the faithful, as they take choice in
naming the elect of the wrangling mobs at
Petersburg.
We should count all this discord as moth
ing for our gain, but prepare forthe contest
as though the enemy presented solid and
unWayering front.

AN ELEPHANT DIES IN THE STREET IN
RIcHMoND.-About 81 O'Clock last Friday
night the performing elephant, Betsy, be-
longing to McFlinn's ten-cent circus, en-
route from the tent on Church Hill to the
Chesapeake g. Ohio depot, lay down near
the intersection of Broad and Twenty
fourth streets and soon thereafter died.
Betsy, who was of Asistic birth, was one
of the best-known elephants in America.
She was imported by Barnum, who sold her
to John B. Doris for $1,000. and in March
she became the property Of Mr.. McFlinn,
who it is understood, paid for her $500.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 20. 1888.
What is the Duty Of Democrats in the City
Election Tomorrow?

As there was no primary election to nomi,
nate Democratic ticket, several Dem
ocratic candidates entered the field foi
Mayor, under the delusive idea that there
would not be any Republican candidate.
But, as might have been confidently ex'
pected, seeking to take advantage OF tne
division of the Democratic vote, Republi-
can candidate entered the field on the eve
of the election, when it was supposed IL
would be too late to concentrate on anyone
in opposition to him.
After this occurred, W. c. Straughan,
ESQ, one of the Democratic candidates,
promptly withdrew. Then an effort was
made to get the Democratic Committee to
call meeting for the purpose OF nominal
ting candidate for Mayor who could
receive the united support of the Dem
ocrats, under the confident belief that the
candidates, ether than the Republican
would acquiesce and withdraw. The Com
mittee declined to call this meeting. Their
another Democratic candidate, E. /. Jones'
Esq, not wishing to be the indirect means
of aiding the election of the Republican
candidate, also withdrew, after which
Mayor Smeltzer likewise withdrew, leaving
the issue between the election of A
h. Fultz, Esq, q Prohibitionist with
Democratic antecedents, and Heber Keri
ESQ.,, an extreme Republican. Under
these circumstances, it seems cleal
to us that it is the duty of the
Democrats to rally to the support of thu
election of Fultz.
Whilst Fultz is Prohibitionist, as al
individual, he is not Prohibition candi
date, and his election, as he himself ad
mits, will not be Prohibition triumph o.
Democratic defeat but the election O.
Ker will be claimed and proclaimed as 6
Republican triumph over both the Prohi
bition and Democratic parties.
The moral effect of the election of Ker
We need not impress upon any Democrat
will be very Injurious to the Democratic
party in the future. 1t is always wise tt
choose the lesser of two evils. If you cam
get your first choice, take the second. Thii
is both sensible and patriotic. Under the
peculiar circumstances now existing, the
duty of voters who desire tie welfare OF
the city is plain; and that is, to vote fol
Fultz.
The difference, as we understand it, be-
tween Fultz and Ker is this Fultz is a
Democratic Prohibitionist, and Ker is a
Republican Prohibitionist. Fuliz, apart
from his prohibition views, is Democrat
-Ker, apart from his prohibition views, il
Republican, and will vote for the Repub
lican nominee whoever he may be, and nj
consideration could induce him to vote fo
the Democratic nominee. How can any
Democrat, prohibition or anti-prohibition,
Justify his vote for Ker 1t can't be done
upon any principle consistent with Dem
ocratic profession.

on the Mississippi River have yielded to
the high waters, which are higher than
they have been for many years, and many
square miles of rieh bottom lands, with
their growing crops, have been overlooked,
