Be 1t resolved by the members of the
Bar of Stanton. Va. that
We desire 10 respectfully recommend to
President Cleveland the Honorable John
Randolph Tucker Of Virginia, for the
position Of AttOrney-General of the Uni
ted States.
We recognize the high requirements
Of that Office and feel we can say with
confidence, they would be filled well and
efficiently by Mr. Tucker, who Is an able.
learned and practical lawyer, a profound
student and jealous guardian Of the prin-
ciplcs of Government, Of which Ameri-
cans are so proud. He has labored hard
to maintain and expound them; and for
the success and establishment of Demo-
efforts OF his life. While we are well
aware many able men will be presented
for the office of Attorney-Gcncral, we
are sure no man i'm the country better
equipped and better suited for the posi-
ton can be found.
We, therefore. earnestly commend Mr..
Tucker to the consideration of MIR. CleVe-
land and respectfully ask that as a
Virginian and representative of this sec
ton of the country, he be appointed TO
this position in the Cabinet
One consideration advanced by George
Nj. Cochran why Virginia should receive
special consideration in the selection of
Cabinet officers was that Virginia had
not held a Cabinet position for more than
thirty years The last Cabinet officer
from Virginia was John Il. Floyd. Secre-
tary Of War, under James Buchanan,
1870. Alex. II. II. Stuart was Secre-
tary Of the Interior in Mr.. Fnlmore's
Cabinet July 10. 1850 to March 4, 1853
and w. b. Preston. Secretary of the Navy,
under Taylor from March l. lSl9 to July
10. 1850. So that Virginia has had only
three representatives during two admin
istrations, stree March 4, 1Si9, a period
OF fCrty-three years.

Alollinger there VIII be no more healing
unless they are genuine faith cures
Father Mollinger as regular and skill

his prescriptions faithfully and hopefully.
There Is much interest IN the estate OF

WYOMING MATTERS
The Subject of Martial Law Be-
coming National.
A Member Of the Democratic National Com
mittee Wants an Unbiased Sta5ement-GOod
Timber for a Platform Plank.

OMAHA. Neb., June IA Bee special
from Casper, Wyo., says that the persons
favoring martial law in Wyoming thought
that some action would be taken last Mon
day by the president, but today a letter
was received from an eastern member of
the Democratic national COMMITTEES asking
for an unbiased statement to be sent him
at Chicago and expressing belief that it
would be good timber for plank in the
national platform to Offset the negro out
rage plank of the Republicans
The letter also states that the matter be-
fore tbe cabinet was before the Minneapo-
lis convention and more bad feeling was
stirred up over its consideration than any
thing ever before it.
Blaine. the writer says, explained him
self as unwilling to consider it at all, hold
ing it purely state affair and the action Of
the war department unwarranted.
Others were inclined to uphold the war
department. The writer concludes his
letter by saying this had more TO do with
Blaine's withdrawal from the cabinet than
anything else and he states this on cabinet
authority. The people Of Wyoming, he
declares, need have no fear Of martial law.
