On the 10th District Judge Goodrich
at Waco, Texas, held that the alien land
law, passed by the last Texas legislature
was unconstitutional and void The law
excluded foreigners from buying or loan
ing money on Texas land and had crea>
ted severe money stringency through>
out the State. Such foolish legislation
will injure any State or country. We
want all the capital we can get from for
eigners and everybody else, and it was
simply inexcusable ignorance and preju-
dice which suggested such legislation as
that Judge Goodrich has pronounced
unconstitutional.
The anti-railroad measure known as
the Berner bill. has been killed in the
Georgia Senate by a vote of 20 to 49,
This is a sign of returning reason. Geor-
gia has been foremost in hostile legisla-
ton to railroads, and has felt the effect
by the stoppage of railroad construction.
Virginia ought to take tip from the ac-
ton of the Georgia Senate and sit down
very hard on the insane prejudice that is
being Matched up against railroads.
1t is stated that reciprocity treaty
has been arranged with Germany by
which American wheat is admitted free
into that territory, and German beet SUI
gar free into this. Wheat imported into
Germany is taxed at 49, cents for 60 lbs.
This is an important arrangement to
this country and will give an impetus to
wheat shipment to that country.
1t may not be generally known that

About seyenty-fve of the one
hundred members of the Legisla-
ture have thus far been NOM
mated, and all the Senators except in
the Lynchburg and Rockingham dis
tricts. OF the rs named for the lower
house, one-half are Alliance men, and
in about 25 of the other districts, where
nominations have been made, 25 Alliance
men are running as Independents. This
looks like the Alliance will be satisfied
with nothing less than the control of
the Legislature. If they cannot get it
through their control of the Democratic
organization they will get it in opposi-
ton to the action of that organization.
This all means Office, in the first place
the domination of legislation on Alliance
lines, in the next place.

Jay Cook, whose financial firm went
under in 1878 or III, by the weight of the
obligations incurred in trying to build
the Northern Pacific railroad, has re-
Gently gone over the whole route to Sc
attic, Washington. After giving in de-
tail the plans formed and the endeavors
made to carry on the work, he says the
Franco-Prussian war and the panic of
1878, settled the matter, and the scheme
had to be abandoned. Henry Willard,
some years afterwards, with German
capital to back him, completed the work
and now it is one of the greatest and
most profitable roads in the world. He
continues:
'sWhen over fifty years of age, began anew
process of making a fortune. l have worked
hard have won back the money lost, and can
stop to breathe again. Now, for the first time
7 have gone from one end to the other of the
road on which I look somewhat as a father
might on child. The fight in the early seven

ton announces that the Herald of that
place will be started as republican Or
gan, and urges republican voters to do
what is yet possible within the next
twenty days to preserve the party from
complete over throw.
Whenever candidates shall bes or have
been named the voters are told that it
is their plain duty to give them every
possible support, even where they favor
the present State management. The
letter concludes: "As it has been an
nounced, as one reason for abandoning
the campaign, that the republican par
ty of the nation refuses to furnish any
further financial aid, it may be well for
us to inquire if we have not provoked
their refusal by the fact of all the tens
of thousands sent here during the last
eight years not one account has been
rendered, not one voucher filed, or an
auditing committee commissioned. And

Death of Gen. w. H. F. Lee.

Thursday Gen. w. H. F. Lee died at
his home, Ravensworth. His death was
not unexpected. He died of valvular
disease of the heart. Gen. Lee was held
in great esteem by all who knew him
His old soldiers were unanimous in their
expression of devotion to him? AS a
soldier he was conscientious and able, a
fine discplinarian, but always approach
able. His dignified yet courteous and
cordial manners were marked at all
times. AS member of Congress since
1887 his service was characterized by the
same devotion to duty, and he never lost
an opportunity of advancing the inter
ests of his constituents. Certainly this
was true gentleman and loyal Virgin
ian who has gone from u.s.

cavalry company for the Confederate
army and became captain. Soon he was
promoted to major and became chief of
cavalry to General Loring in the West
Virginia campaign. Ordered to Freder-
icksburg in the fall of 1862, he was made
ieutenant-colonel and next spring, as
colonel, was attached to the brigade of
General j. E. b. Stuart and participated
in most of his campaigns. In October,
1862. he became brigadier general, was
severely wounded at Brandy, and was
afterward captured by a raiding party
and carried to Fort Monroe, where he
was held for some time as a hostage
He was exchanged in the spring Of
1854, and on April 23d was made major
general and led his division in the bat
tie from Rapidan to Appomattox, where
he surrendered.
Returning to White House he rebuilt
his dwelling and settled down to farming.
He for time was presidentof the Virgin
ia Agricultural Society. In 1875 he was
elected to the State Senate of Virginia,
and in 1886 to Congress. He was reflect
ed to Congress for the second time last
November. He was married first to a
daughter Of Gen. Williams G. Wick
ham, and the second time to Miss Boiling,
of Petersburg, who is the mother of two
sons
