Honoring Emperor William.

HANOVER, Sept. 16 "a grand banquet
was given last night by the provincial estates
in honor of Emperor William. Count Won
Munster, German Ambassador to France,
gave the toast in honor of the imperial
family 10 his speech he said the Emperor
could always count upon the readiness of
Hanover to respond to any call whether for
peace or war The Emperor in his response
said he was fully conscious Of the loyalty,
nobility and self sacrificing patriotism which
had distinguished Hanover. 1t was due to
these qualities that the imperial house had
been able to perform an extremely difficult
task namely, never to let go anything that
had once been grasped. AT the conclusion
of his speech. which was loudly received,
the Emperor proposed toast to Hanover,
and drank it from the same glass from
which his grandfather drank similar toast

ALEX ANDRIA-.
MONDAY EVENING. SEPTEMBER 1e.

EVERY NOW and then newspaper para
graph is seen to the effect that the prohibi-
ton party and the farmers alliance are each
making arrangements for having either
State or local tickets in the field at the COM
ing election in Virginia. The result of the
election referred to will be of too grave i'm
portaoce to every interest In the State to
permit any wise Virginian really concerned
about the States welfare to take part in any
such movements. That the democratic par
ty is the real temperance party is proved by
the fact that it, like Its founder, Thomas
Jefferson, fayors tax on whisky, so az to
make that article dear and thereby diminish
its use. That it is the farmers party Is
proved by the fact that it favors reduction
in tina tariff on all the articles the farmer
has to buy. and the removal of the restric.
tons the tariff imposes on the sale OF his
uroducts. On both these two points the
democratic party stands in direct opposition
to its republican adversary. No republican
in Virginia will be silly enough to throw
awsy his vote next November on temper,
aoce or farmers candidates. Such votes as
those candidates may receive will be those
of democrats, and neither the reputation for
sincerity nor wisdom of those who cast them
will be increased thereby.

the committee of the U. s.. House of Repre-

was democrat who was nearly always pre-
sent on that committees meeting days, the
republican members ofthe committee would
not attend, and that, therefore, no action

dence of Colonel Goodwin, where Pendleton

Nh. HARRISON is not adding much to his
reputable reputation. even in the North, by
his endorsement of General Mahone's meth
ods, and his promise to throw the whole
weight of the administration in the Gener-
a!'s favor. The New York Herald, which
brides itself upon being independent, says /;
The republican campaign in Virginia is
being conducted on principles in contrast
with the high moral ideas which the repuo-
,ican party claims. AS an example of the
most corrupt elements in the politics of the
,lay it is pre.emineut. At the head OF 1t ID
a man, Malone, noted only for his trickery
and his readiness 10 sell bimselfto any fac
ton that will pay his price. The more hon
orable men in his own party have thrown
him over. He represents nothing except
the fine sse of desperate political brigand.
But be has the President behind him, to-.
sether with the advice of the shrewdest and
most unprincipied leaders among northern
republicans. If he wants money to buy
votes he can have it. and the Presidents
party will furnish it and the President bim-
self will wink at it. Why ia all this? Is 1t
for the good of the country Oh, no; but
1t will strengthen the republican party in
its next fight and give Harrison, it 10 hoped,
a denomination. Corruption in Virgins,
wholesale and open, is the means OF giving
the republicans further hold on the per.
auistes and emoluments OF Office in Wash

Race War.

LAwRENCEvILLE, Ills, Sept. 16.-A race
war between whites and blacks occurred
here Saturday night. A few days ago St.
Louis negro named Slick came to town and
Saturday afternoon in quarrel with
white man, attacked him with knife. The
latter escaped sitter having two wounds, and
then Slick dashed down the street slashing
at every one. Judge Barnes, of the county
court, ordered the negro to stop. Inc
negro attacked the judge but the latter
retaliated by knocking him down. The
negro was then disarmed and arrested.
Mean while the blacks, hearing of the arrest,
determined to rescue the prisoner. A few
white men rallied around the judge. There
was a hard fight in which the ne
groes were beaten back, and some of
the rngleaders arrested. The prison
ers were taken to the county Jail
and the sheriff and his deputies we're order
ed by the judge to guard the building. The
blacks quickly organized and made an at
tack on the Jail. The sheriff was ordered
to fire on them but refused, and the negroes
forced their way into the jail and rescued
the prisoner. Judge Barnes organized the
whites and attacked the blacks at the jail.
There was bloody fight, in which pistols,
knives and clubs were used. Judge Barnes
was cut and shot but his wounds are not
fatal Dr. johnson. Ej. Lamb, and 3 other
white men were seriously hurt. Two me-
eroes were shot and half hurdred heads
were broken. The whites Won, and the
ringleaders were again put in Jail and a
