Judge Waddill in opening said that
he had heard that the most unpleasant
duty was that OF the picket on guard,
vet he saw before him al the faithful
bows. The first time he saw this hall was
i'm 1881 when the light was shed around
like it IS now This is the first time that
the vi bite men know that they are in the
hands of their friends a Republican
Senate kept back the Democrats and
helped YOU white mems interest Now
for the first time we have all
three parts of government" we
have the House, the Senate, and the
President" I'VE will tell our friends
the enemy that they cannot do what they
choose and disobey what the govern
ment wants" we will fix the laws and
fences so that Democratic chicken can
not creep under them The above were
some of Judge Waddilis Temafks.

ton which he bad for the party and also
that he would instantly take his seat IL
Congress, prove a useful member and al
ways maintain the interest OF the South
and Southern people
The people Of this district and OF the
South have not more respect for the
laws of the land than YOU and ! have
The people of the South are opposed %
the laws The time is coming when the
white people will approve Of what we
have done. are doing and intend TO do
The Judge then talked nj length about
the vote in Jackson ward, and ended this
part Of his speech by saying Wise is
drawing the pay, but | am doing the
business
STRIKING THE KEY NOTE.
This last remark of the Judge gave the
KEY note 10 the meaning OF the meeting,
t. T.. the distribution of patronage and
the necessity Of the two wings of the
Republican party to flap together.
He believed that Virginia was safely
Republican, that the party had increased
to 10000 so that the Democrats
squeezed through last year with only
800 majority.
lie recognized the fact that the Demo
Gratis did win in numbers, though claim
ing that il took one week and lots of
teleersphing TO accomplish that result.
lie claimed that the district was Repub-
lican, and that two years hence. Re
publican nomination for Congress in this
district would be equivalent 10 an cleo
ton. II want you To understand that
will not be the candidate
he spoke of the negro, Of Governor
Lees and Secretary Flournoy's remarks
that the negro should not rule The
speaker believed that they had equal
powers and rights wi III the white peo-
pie, and added. when the ides OF Nov
ember roll around, you will be able to
carry to Washington the informa-
ton that there is a Republican exc
cutive and legislative administration
in Richmond.
81 am glad 10 see white club ] am
glad TO see "a col0fed club When other
duties do not prevent nothing gives me
more pleasure than TO address cOlOred
club. ! would address them as quickly
as | would club of white men. Good
government can only come at the hands
of while and colored people, provided
they are good people. He caused
laugh when he told of the white men in
the South whOs would be Republicans
were they living in the North, but living
South had to be Democrats.
BRAGOING HEAVILY.
Getting down to the offices he laid
down the gauntlet TO any man who
would pick it up, that the men in the
