TIE PARTYS ORIGIN

A local newspaper, criticising the New
York World in respect to the history OF
the Democratic party. says the Chicago
Herald, falls into more errors than it
assumes to correct. Among other things
it asserts that the Democratic party had
its origin in 1928. Every well Informed
school boy knows better. The principles
of government held by the Democratic
pIrty OF to-day can be traced back TO
Thomas Jefferson, who, although not the
drew around him a party intent on pro-
noting hat theory which widens the suf-
irage. is Jealous of the rights Of the states
end insists on the rigorous enforcement Of
every constitutional limit of the federal
power. Under Jeferson's leadership they
called themselves Republicans. but their
opponents, the Federalists, IN derision,
called them Democrats. Being the party
of the people, after the single defeat of
1896, they came into power IN 1900, and
won every election continuously up to
1870, when they saw the last vesti &c Of
the Federal party disappear from national
politics.
As early as 1910 they accepted the
name Democrat, and until 1924 the party
was known as the Democratic Republican
party. When the Federalparty died its
members sought new affiliations and in
1924 coalesced with that faction Of the
Democratic Republican party which sup
ported John Quincy Adams for the presi-
dcncy. It was the New England Federal
vote for Adams that defeated Jackson,
who got the popular and electoral plural
ity. but no candidate having a majority of
electors, the election was thrown into the
house, and Adams was chosen president.
In the next four years the Federal leaven
permeated the Adams and Clay wing of
the Republican party, while the national
Democrats rallied to the support of Jack
son. In 1928 the latter was successful.
and until 1860 continued in control of the
government, with the brief intervals held
by Harrison and Tyler and By Taylor and
Fillmore.
Thus it may be seen from this outline
that the Democratic party was the sue
cessful and controlling party of the
country from 1900 until 1860, with the
exception Of twelve years. Thrice since
hat 'imc it has been defeated by fraud
and chicanery-in 1876, through the ma
chinations of Zach Chandler and John
Sherman; in 1880 through the corruptipg
influences of Dorsey and Dudley, and
now, in 1888, through the same malign
forces controlled by Quay and Dudley,

ufacturers to place anything before the pub
lie that will sell at large profit, without
regard 10 its usefulness or healthfulness.
At present there is great raid upon the
baking powder market, and 30 many i'm
pure and adulterated articles of this kind
have been found peddled about the country
that the authorities in several OF The States
have taken the necessary action to expose
them. The report of the Ohio State Food
Commission has shown that large number
OF the brands sold here are made from alum
phosphates, or cheap and adulterated
cream of tarter. The danger to the public
is made still greater By the unbushlng eff

impure powders advertise them as perfect,
claiming for them all kinds of false and i'm

Commission gives the names OF q number of

RICHMOND, Va, Feb. 1.-THE University
of Virginia has not as many warm support
srs In the present General Assembly as was
la the last session, indeed, 1 have talked with
several legislators who have strong preju'
dices against tue University, on the grounds
mainly that it takes so much more TO edu
cate a student than at some of the other
State institutions, viz: the Virginia Military
Destitute Bscksburg College, and the
Farmvile Female School. Ii is commended
by some that the poor boy has poor chance
at the University of Virginia. and is as much
out of place there as feb is out OF water.
Be this as it may, there are some Legislators
who ere now strongly talking OF voting Tor
decreasing the annuity to the University OF
Virginia, when the general appropriation
bill comes up.
The resolution in regard to general
government experiment station at Arlington
easily passed the Senate come time ago but
1t has not vet been taken up in the House.
Senator Moore has received numerous let
ters commencing the station, and it is I'm
derstood that prominent people connected
with the United States Agricultural De
partment approve the plan.
Ez Senator Elisha E. Meredith WAS at the
Capitol 10 night, locking as we'll as ever.
Old Senators gave him a cordial greeting,
and his short stay in the Senate Chamber
was pleasant one to him. When Senator
Meredith succeeded in securing the passage
of bill 10 appropriate 81 600 to erect q
fence around Manassas cemetery, he did
what no other Senator has been able to do
FIR many vesrs-secure money 70 improve @

Fred Thornton, the workman who fell off
the tower derrick Of the City Hall, q dis.
lance OF ninety feet, few days ago, is still
improving.
Upon application OF Captain Geo. A.
Mushbach, of your city, the Governor has
issued en- order to allow certain military
from Maryland and the District of Columbia
to invade the State on the 22d Of February.
Mr.. Moore in the Senate and Mr.. Corbet
in the House introduced bill il their re-
spective houses today to incorporate the.
Ivanwold Hotel and Ferry Company.
The funeral of Mr.. Robert Hill will take
place here tomorrow. The deceased was
eighty years old and had resided in this city
for more than half a century. He was one
of the many citizens who issued shin pla7.
ters' during the war.
Lobbying is being INDUCED in around the
Legislature to considerable extent, but the
masters at issue do not appear to be Of
weighty consequence.

thus far is g subject that elected oonsidera-

PURPOSE OF THE CATAcoMRs.-The cata-
combs, then, were excavated by the early
Christians for the express and sole purpose
of burying their dead The nope of the re.
surrection of the body made them averse to
the custom of cremation then prevailing
among the Greeks and the Romans. They
adhered to the older Jewish custom Of bury.
ing the dead in rock hewn tombs and gale
ries. Hence the close resemblance OF Jew
sh ard Christian cemeteries in Rome. AZ
ter Constantine, when the Christians could
afford 10 buy and hold land and could bury
their dead without fear Of disturbance
they located their cemeteries above ground
around their churches and chapels.

WHICH IS RIGHr?-The thirty-ffth verse
of the sixth chapter of st. Luke's gospel in
the Received Version reads, "But love ye
your enemies and lend, hoping for nothing
agaia" This last clause in the Revised
Version is never despairing." II the old
version is correct, the meaning is, claiming
no interest on the money we loaned. Iftne
revised be right, it may mean driving no
one to despair by not lending him money or
never despairing of any man. The opinion
OF SO many great scholars as gave us the
new version being entitled to respect, the
bearing of their translation has wide signi-
ticance. No matter how hopeless the man
s that comes to us, no matter how wicked,
we must Dot despair of his becoming bet
