WHAT SHOULD BE DONE AT ONCE.-The day
of registration is near at hand. Next Sat-
urday will be the last day of registration,
and then it is but ten days to the election.
AS the Warrenton Vrginion wisely says,
the committee at each precinct should as
certain
LIST. The name of every democrat who
will become OF age on or before the 9Th of
November and see that he is registered by
the 26th of October.
2nd. The name of every democrat that
has come int the community and see that
he has his transfer.
3rd. The name and address of every
democrat who has moved away and
send his transfer to him.
4th. The voters of each precinct. should
bs carefully canvassed and the proper in
fluence brought to bear on every one that
is uncertain.
9Th. Conveyances should be provided
for old or infirm voters, every one of whom
should be brought to the polls if possible
to do so without endangering life.
With thorough organization of the DEM
ocratic pt rty the result will not be uncer-
tain. But if democrats relax their efforts
because of some disaffection among repnh-
licans, theresult of the election may be as
disappointing to them as was the defeat Of
Cleveland last fall. The democrats who
expect any great help from republican dis
affection in this election are nursing de-
fusion and pinning their faith to false hope.
The recriminations which the two factions
are indulging in are what Disraeli called
"the confessions of great rascals," nothing
more.

WHAT Hon. JOHN 8. WISE SAYS OF MA
HOMES cHANoEs.-The Pittsburg Post re-
ports John 8. Wise as saying in that city
last week.
s'The democrats of Virginia have Ma
homes scalp hung on acorn-stalk. He will
be defeated, notwithstanding the immense
amount of money that is being spent in the
state by Senator Quay. Malone knows he
is licked as well as anybody in the state
When he ia showed under this fail the Re-
publicans will go into the state and organ
ize party of their own. Malone and a
few adherents clamored for a chance to
show how strong he was. He got that op-
portunity this fall and we hope he will be
satisfied. Mahone's idea of republican
party in Virginia is for Malone alone
1t would be better named were it called
"Mahone party" He believes in making
converts to his ideaa with the aid of base
ball bat.
''Senator Quay is helping him with
promises to pay. Quay, without money,
is no use to any party. The repuolicans
are doing but little in the city of Richmond,
as it is overwhelmingly democratic. The
race question is being agitated in the south
by the republicans, but have taken little
interest in the late discussions. There ia
great difference between the two parties
in the SOUTH"

Arrangements will be perfected for supplying
with trees every person disposed to take part
in the planting and Arbor-day enjoyment.
They can make their selection of trees as well
as location for planting within the lines pre-

joyment. 1t will be fittirg occasion for the
parents of children In the schools especially to
join them, as we'll as to encourage them In

Every inhabitant, young and old. rich and
poor. has a direct interest in the park. which
will in time be charming place for recreation
and pleasure. II public sentiment were to ask
for general suspension of busln ess in the city

It wopld be, indeed, an anomylous coudi-
tion of public sentiment, if a man, such as
Gen. Malone is known to be, should be
called upon 10 preside over the destinies of
this grand old State, and her interests be
committed to his keeping, to have injected
into his admin stration his detestable meth
DDS and malignant spirit, and the people
subjected to the persecution in which his
vicious nature would glory, and the infu-
ences he would invoke for their humiia-
ton. 1t is not within the limits of posi-
bility, that such will be the fate of the Old
Commonwealth. The indignant response
to his appeal for support ought to be given
by such crushing rebuke as would forever
silence the pestiferous msrplot, and relieve
the State of the menace of his presence as
factor in her political fortunes Valley

Democratize the Republican party in Vir.

obscurity, giving him no countenance or
recognition, that he may gather around
him white Democrats who are willing to
get what they can out of the Republican
party. He is trying to drive out and put
down the negro for being negro"
