RERrBLICAN PRIMARIES.

During the early morning knots
of busy and enthusiastic politicians
were visible throughout the city,
discussing in quiet but earnest man
ner the expectations Of the day at
the primaries.
At IL O'Clock the polls were opened
in Salem, East Salem and North
Salem precinct, with two tickets In
each and the greatest difficulty this
reporter has recently experinced is
IN distinguishing these tickets by q
name. The different candidates
for the county offices appeared
of the opinlon that whatever
ticket was successful they would
fare well ia the county convention,
and the general impression was
prevalent that the several tickets
meant more Of state than a county
combination. Therefore, in giving
the lis,s OF delegates voted for 1t
cannot be said that they represent
anybody and they will therefore be
given az representatives Of their
own individual opinions. The OPP
posing lists In the three precincts
are here appended:

The people of Salem have been in
formed from time to time recently
of the preparation by Salem's dra-
matte talent Of the play whose title
h ads this article. The director OF
its management Is Mrs. Hazen, an
accomplished lady who has had ex-
tensive experience on the stage, and
the characters chosen for the several
parts are strongly indicative Of her
good judgment.
The plot of the play shows a
strong conception Of dramatic effect.
It is q heroic love story, with suf
ficient of the ludicrous thrown in
to make 1t particularly enjoyable.
The location Is the South and all
the heroic features Of the gallant
Southern men are brought out. 1t
Is impossible to give an intelligent
synopsis of the beautiful drama, but
the people Of Salem will know that
the ladies and gentlemen TAX
ing part would never lend them
selves to the production of any piece
not acceptable to the high taste
which Is well recognized in this
city. 1t can I've well said here, how
ever, that Mrs. Hazen, who is a
connoisseur, declares she never met
such pleasing dramatic talent as is
represented In the following

CORRUPT Prosecutions.

As reported in the Aduance Saturday the
United States grand jury, in the cases of A.
d. Payne, j. NJ. Smith and Alex. Lawson,
election judges of Charlotte county, charged
with fraudulent irregularities in the Novem-
Der election of 1887. failed to find a true bill
against the accused, and consequently the
cases were all dismissed.
The matter is one worthy of special press
comment. There was not one shadow OF
evidence against those gentlemen in the first
instance. The whole case was trumped up
just before the last Congressional election
by q few republican politicians for the base
purpose of intimidating the democratic
judges of election IN Charlotte and through
out the district to secure the defeat of Paul
Edmunds. The parties accused were
arrested by federal officers and drag
ged from their quiet homes to Lynch
burg, along with witnesses, to appear BE-
fore United States Commissi ,ner Tinsley,
and they were sent by that officer to the
United States court under heavy bond for
their a pearance. There was not before
Commissioner Tinsley one shadow more of
evidence to implicate theaccused parties, or
either one of them, than there was before
the grand jury In fact, there was just no
evidence at all TO make plausible or decent
case before any jury or in any court of JUS.
tice in the land. But in utter contempt of
all of these facts, and after the case had been
clearly presented and argued before him by
Senator Daniel and other able counsel,
Commissioner Tinsley sent the parties on
under bond as stated above, and they have
been compelled, with their witnesses and
friends, to appear repeatedly before the
United States court in this city to answer
the groundless complaint of malignant par
tisans.
Besides the wanton outrage thus perpe
trated upon three respectable gentlemen in
Charlotte and annoyance and expense to
their numerous friends. the government no
doubt has been mulcted to the tune of sew
eral hundred dollars in the way of fees and
commissions for hungry political ghouls,
who we're engaged in the shameless prosecu-
ion. 1t is just this sort of dirty work On
the part Of federal officers who live by their
extortionate fees, that the federal courts
are crowded at every term with trif1ing
cases Of no sort of Importance or merit, but
at enormous cost to the government. No
wonder that Judge Paul, last Friday, be-
came indignant at the character and multi
plIcity of such cases crowding his court, and
was compelled to rebuke the shameless con.
duct of some of the officials in the following
plain language:
~ toiU continue to renaore commissions
ers IN this district until can get men soho
haVe some common sense and decency about
them. ''-eSa -Lynchburg Advance.

While Roanoke, Salem, Ruena Vista. Glas-
gov, and other places in and out of Virginia
have been making fine progress in new de.
velopments, Staunton, the chief city of the
noted Shenandoah Valley, the garden spot OF
the State. possessed of every advantage. agri-
cultural, Industrial. religious. educational, and
social. which could invite capital and pro-
mote enterprise. has been quietly and conf
IDENTIFY resting in the consciousness OF her
possessions, and awaiting the plans OF organi-
cation and development which her men OF af-
fairs. distinguished for their conservative
business character and intelligence had
undertaken to mature. With view to large
and important developments. options have
been procured upon such properties in and
adjacent to the city as were deemed desirable
for carrying out their plans. 1t is rumored.
however, that several persons are hesitating
about executing the contract they have given
in regard to their lands. We hope this is not
true. for we should regret to know that any
one in our midst could be SO Indifferent to the
general welfare of the city and section as even
to desire to withhold his property after q
price had been agreed upon.
Beyond question. the score or more gentle
men who have undertaken this scheme have
the ability, the industry, influence and means
to carry it through. while the unsurpassed ad
vantage of location in the centre of unlimited
Industrial resources. gives an importance to
the enterprise that is rarely presented. and
which cannot fail to attract the attention Of
those who are seeking Investments Of capital.
The effort is one which calls for liberal and
hearty cooperation. Let no hindrances
stand in the way Unnecessary. let temporary
inconvenience or sacrifices be suffered that
permanent and substantial good may result to
all.
1t is a we'll known fact that our people have
been contributing largely of both their money
and ensrsy to enterprises abroad. Encouraged
by the success of less promising fields. let this
movement be entered upon with the zeal and
determination its possibilities Justify. and
make Staunton the second city in the State.

At meeting of negro school teachers in
Washington one of the most sensible men
among them, 10 talking about his race,
said: Time was in the South when the
negro was the builder, blacksmith, shoe
maker and tailor, but with emancipation
he left those callings for the corrupt field of
politics. where he has been used, abused
and dropped. We seldom see good col
ored mechanic, because the men who could
successfully engage in these trades have
left them for the professions, whore in m ost
cases they have proved eminent failures"
Yes, used, abused and dropped BY the Re-
publican party as time and occasion suited
its convenience; and as professional men,
grotesque failures, as we'll for lack of
practice as for lack of ability, for of course
white people do not employ them, and their
own race, when in need of legal or medical
service, always seeks that of white men,
unless, in the latter case, there be voudoo
