VIRGINIA POLITICS.
Relative Chances Of Frank Hume and
Gen. w. H. +. Lee.

There il an interesting three-cornersd fight
in progress in the eighth congressional district
OF Virginia, and, a. is usually the case, the
friends Of each candidate declare themselves a
sure OF success. The regular republicans made
no nomination and the friends of Mr.. Frank
Hume took advantage Of the situation and
urged that gentleman to enter the race, When
his name vas presented to the voters Of the
district he and Gen. W. II. F. Lee were in the
field against each other. Thus the voters were
to have two democratic candidates to vote for
with no one to run in opposition to them.
Candidate Hume's popularity with the colored
voters, 1t was asserted, together with his large
following in the democratic ranks, would in
sure his election.
This state of affairs did not exist long before
. colored organization in Alexandria put for
ward Mr.. Carriers name as the republican can
didate.
This district. which century ago comprised
the city Of Alexandria sud the county of Fair
fax, is now made up of ten counties. They are
Alexandria, Fairfax, Prince William, Loudoun,
Stafford. King George, Louisa, Culpepcr,
Orange and Fauquer.
The friends OF Zee and Hume are making a
strong canvass of the district In Alexandria
county and city it is claimed Mr.. Hume will
get a large vote, and the majority there, Mr..
Hume's friends hope. will outweigh the major
tiles given for Lee in several counties.
CHANCES OF HUME AND LEE ABOUT EQUAL.
Speaking Of the prospects Of the different
candidates lifelong resident of the district,
who has always voted the republican ticket,
told a STAR reporter today tina. in his opinion
the chances were about equally divided be-
tween Lee and Hume. One thing. he said.
that would help Hume was that there are many
congressional aspirants in the district who
Will not be especially anxious for Lees sue
cess, as they know that the success Of Lee
always means another term. They would, he
said, like to have a change, so as to give them
the election of the republican candidate as
out of the question.
In Alexandria county Mr.. Hume's friend
predict that he will have q larger majority
than any candidate ever had before and in
the adjacent counties he will poll large vote.

They Want More Time to Get Out.

Attorneys representing the interests of the
white settlers in the Choctaw nation were at
the Interior Department yesterday urging that
their appeal for an extension of time for tho
removal of themselves and stock, held to be
illegally on the reservation, be favorably con-
sidered. The attorneys state that kilograms
received from settlers complain that the time
fixed for their removal November - Is en-
tirely too short for the necessary preparation
OF their stock. They contend that ii they are
compelled to leave on the date fixed many Of
them will be ruined. The appeal has been
pending before the Secretary for some time. 1t
is probable that in view OF the short notice
given he will modify his order by extending
tho time
