MIR. wIsE's DENOMINATION.

The Democratic Convention for
the Third Congressional District of
Virginia has seen fit to nominate
HON. GEORGE ID. WISE, as can
didate for the Fifty-second Con.
g~ess. Throughout the entire
fight the labored efforts of the
machine has been plainly evident,
and the result is by no means con-
soling TO the winner. That there
is a heavy sentiment against the
nom;2ee admits If no question. Mr..
WISE'S friends claimed about sew
enty votes for him on the first hal
lot. The actual result was Ga. II
took exactly that number to nomi-
nate him, there being 1877 delegates
Viewed from Republican stand
point. it can hardly be said that
the nomination is a strong one. II
cannot bring harmony to the Demo
cratic party.

WHOM SHALL WE NOMISATFY

The outlook for Republican sue
cess in this Third Congressional
District was never brighter, even
without Federal Election Law.
With the ENGRAVING of that mea-
sure on the statute books of this
country this District is hopele sly
Republican.
There is scarcely room for doubt
in this matter. The attempt to
arouse sectionalism here has sig
nally failed, and he must be a
strong man indeed who can lead
the Democratic hosts to victory.
The Democratic Convention
which met on tie 18th has spoken.
Whom shall we nominatef From
this city the only possible candi-
dates are Gen. EDGAR ALLAN
and Hon. JAMES q. SMITH. The
latter is better known as "the ire
pressiDle candidate"
In Henrico County the Hon. j.
WILBUR SOUTHWARK looms up as
the choice of that section, while
Hanover offers the name OF Hon.
WILLIAMS I. WICKHAM, the
younger son Of the General, who
could always carry Hanover.
Hon. EDMUND WADDILL. Jr..
has announced that he Will not
again be candidate.
Despite existing dissatisfaction
he would have a strong following
for the nomination, even though
defeated in the Convention. BY a
wise foresight this District can be
firmly maintained in the Republi-
can columns, and the interests OF
this section properly represented
In the House OF Representa-
tives.

We can win--the question i
whether we will.

1t is a strange fact but neverthe
less true that the Negro has less
TO fear from the pure, unadultera
ted, never to be changed Demo
crat than he has from the ~milk
and water" element who have at
some time or other affiliated with
some other Party.
So true is this, that in almost
every case where rash assertions
have been made or ruinous meas
ures to the body polite proposed
it has emanated from this irrespon
sible element who apparently
would give principle, and every
thing else for the sake of drawing
a fat salary from the state govern
ment.
Mr.. PAUL O. CABELL, who
offered the resolution to convert
the Va. Normal and Collegiate
Institute into an insane Asylum
is said to have at one time affiliated
with the Republicans. He was a
Readjuster.

insult to injury by proposing 10
separate the taxes of the colored
and white people and apportion 10
the colored school only that percen
tage paid by colored people, also
affiliated with the Republicans.
He too was a Readjuster, and
had been denounced by his friends,
the Democrats, as "a NANCY cur.
the spawn Of corruption, a disfrock

their expulsion to Africa, with
possibly the exception of those

stands sworn to give no aid or en-

power, nor to speak against the
United States, but to speak il fa-

OMNIBUS OMENS.

The crisis in the history OF the
Republican party has arrived. Its
opportunity is now. 1t can by a
master-str Oke prolong its life and
provide for the safety of American
institutions if it will. 1t can CON-
promise with wrong, make an ALI
ance with the enemies of good gov
ernment and 60 down to Inc grave
of defeat "unwept, unhonored and
unsung."
There will be IS none so poor to do
it reverence" There has been no
failure on the part Of far-seeing
statesmen to warn it OF its danger.
The resources OF the administra-
ton will be used to guide it along
the path Of duty, marked out by
its past pledges.
What will the end bef Time
alone can tell. At no time in the
Party's history has such foolhar0l
ness been manifested as now. Ii
is an attempt TO laugh at fate and
trifie with destiny. In the past,
this action has never faileu TO
bring its punishment.

generations who had nOsning TO do
with its creation. But what did
this compromise, with wrong On
the part of the Democratic Party
bringf Twenty years OF defeat
a temporary victory of tour years
duration and theD-defeat again.
VIII the Republican Party fail to
profit by this lesson. We hope
IL viii not. The Federal Election
Bill passed by the House OF Repre-
sentauves redeems the pleuz es
made by the Party at Chicago June
81, 1888.
There was no mistaking the
wording Of the provision therein
encOuched. IL is positive and une-
quivOcal. Here Is the language:
