The market value of young and attractive
Italian girls for matrimonial purposes is not
quoted on any of the exchanges, but it seems
to have been fixed by mutual consent between
Signori Cordova and Petreck in Tacoma, W.T.,
at two hundred and fifty dollars. When
Petreck bought Cordovas promised bride from
him for that sum he succeeded in turning in
notes for two hundred dollars of the purchase
money, but was imprudent enough to pay the
remaining fifty in cash. Now he finds that he
cannot make the girl return his affection and
has sold her back, but can recover only his
notes, CORDOBA refusing to surrender the money.
Petreck's resort to the courts has done him no
good, and he must seek his only consolation in
the laureate's assurance that tits better to have
loved and lost his fifty dollars than never to
have loved at all.

The political canvass in Virginia, which will
be opened tomorrow with the democratic con-
vention at Richmond promises to be the live
hest in several years. The recent course Of the
republican leaders has practically reunited the
sundered factions of their party, SO that the
democrats will have a substantial foe to meet.
Even the anti-Mahone republicans, for the
most part, favor the nomination for governor
Of an ex-Confederate officer, who, in addition
to holding his own regular constituency TO-
gether, will offer an attraction to the old
soldier element and thus possibly draw off
good many democrats with whom the ties of
martial service in the field are stronger than
any formed later in their civic relations. The
convention which meets tomorrow viii there
fore have anything but an easy task before lin
selecting candidates and platform which shall
hold their own against hostile assaults of more
than customary strength difficulty increased
BY the number of the candidates who are con-
tending for the personal honors to be bestowed.
The leading issues Of the campaignare pretty
sure to be the state debt and the tobacco tax,
whether the democrats are willing or not to
recognize them as such. There is a move
ment, under the surface, to have these subjects
ignored, or at best very tenderly handled, at
Richmond. The debt question has always been
a bone of contention within the democratic
party, and any utterance on it is likely to give
offence to good many whom it is more desir-
able to keep hold upon. The internal revenue
tax on tobacco is another rather delicate topic,
because the interests of the national party Or
ganization and those OF the mass of the grow
ers and dealers in the state are at odds about
the abolition or retention of the tax. Some of
the democratic leaders profess to regard
the negro question as the one over which the
majority of the white people Of Virginia
are most agitated, and would favor having their
organization known as the white mems, or
white supremacy party. This is, however,
ground which many of the delegates at tomor-
rows convention would feel to be too radical to
plant themselves upon for the present. espe-
cialiy considering the use that might be made
of it in the next national struggle.
An element which will be infused into the
fall canvass to increase its vigor will be the
strong and aggressive support of the republic
can party by the Federal administration. yir-
ginia has been marked as state to be brought
into the republican column in 1892 and ener-
getic work to accomplish this result may be
expected. With the opposing ranks more COM
pActly united than heretofore and strongly
supported by the administration. the demo-
Gratis will undoubtedly prepare their line of
battle and arm themselves with exceeding care
in the meeting at Richmond. being assured
that victory will not be won this year without
q struggle.

Considerable dissatisfaction is expressed in
certain quarters with the new license law
passed in Rhode Island. Ii establishes the fee
for retail hquor-sellers at SiOO in Providence
and $3.50 in other cities and in the towns from
500 to $500 according to population; the fines
imposed for violation of the law are not heavy,
and there is no restriction upon the number or
location Of saloons except that license shall
be withheld from any place on the protest of a
majority OF the occupants or owners of prop
erty within two hundred feet Of it. The belief
is now that the liquor question has been sent
back into politics and that the municipal elec-
tions next fall will turn upon the control of the
new boards Of license commissioners, who will
exercise sort Of dictatorship over the trade in
intoxieants, and will soon acquire great inAu-
ence in making and unmaking candidates for
other Offices Of trust and profit.

The beauty OF having our mining regions
supplied with imported laborers who cannot
understand the language of our country was
shown the other day when SO much difficulty
and even danger were experienced in convinc-
ing plundering, riotous gang of Hungarians
in Pennsylvania after long effort that strike
in which they had been taking part was ended
In their favor, and that there was really no ex-
euse for further violence. If the property
these men destroy and the other damage they
do, through ignorance Of the English tongue
and American institutions, were to affect only
the interests of the greedy capitalists who
brought them over to supplant our native
workmen, the public at large would have no
cause to feel any regret. Unhappily, that is
not the case. The curse of their brutishness
falls upon the Just and the unjust alike.
