A DEFENSE OF THE HILL MEN.

The Dspatch's article on its ue'ea' ID
Richmond is good natured withal and IN very
good taste. II accepts its defeat as gracious
" as could have been expected. However. 1t
insinuates. rather than charges. that the over
whelming Cleveland victory was In q
measure due 10 the apathy which struck the
Hill men when they ascertained early IN
the dav that the Cleveland ticket was forging
ahead This is not at all complimentary 10
the Hill men end we constitute ourselves
their champion for repudiating the
charge. They fought nobly and.
we believe. brought to the polls every
friend that Mr.. Hill had in Richmond.
This may not be very fattering to Mr.. Hill,
but it is the truth. nevertheless. we believe.
Our neighbor regrets that Richmond Is not
more closely identified with what it believes
to be the predominant sentiment in Virginia.
Spare your regrets. neighbor, untu the Con
vention meets We think you will en- find
that Richmond is in entire sympathy with
the predominant sentiment Of Virginia, and
when the election returns come in IN Novem-
Der you will find that she is thoroughly iden-
tilted with the predominating sentiment OF
the people of the United States.

The claim of the friends of Hon. Grover
Cleveland that the present contest over 'he
Presidential nomination il q fight OF the poll
ticians against the people. was clearly ana
strikingly demonstrated in the election oi
Thursday. Here in this city where primary
was held. and an old-fashioned Virginia viva
voce vote was cast: where there was no posi-
Die chance for politicians and their strikers
TO get possession Of the polls. and where the
votes had to be honestly recorded without
any opportunity for tampering with
the ballot. Cleveland men won ~
an overwhelming majority. beating
their opponents nearly two to one.
In Norfolk and Danvilie, where the primary
plan was discarded. and where the old mass
meeting that delight Of politicians - was
adopted. the Hill men were in their glory;
and succeeded in carrying things pretty much
their own way. In one case the people spoke
in the other the professional political nanipu-
lator was able to get in his work.
1t is very easily seen why the professional
politician can 80 easily get control OF mass
meetings and pack them IN the interest oil
themselves and fayorites. Such proceedings
belong TO thor profession. and long practice
makes them adopts at the business. The PLAIN
ordinary citizen who imagines when he At
tends such meeting that the voice Oh the
majority will DO expressed according to popu-
lar will. will soon find himself decidedly mis-
taken and speedily dicOyer that he IS IN
gathering where the programme OF proceed
incs has already been cut and dried, and where
strikers and tooters are already congregated IN
the front seats, and scattered about IN con-
yenient portions of the building, to see the
orders Of the bosses faithfully carried out
Besides this. the quiet, unohendng average
citizen has no taste for this sort of thing and
as be naturally dislikes being cufed and
pushed about by the excited crowd OF ring-
sters and cliquers, he usually stays away alto
gether. and permits the makers of states to
have everything their own way. This IS why
the machine politician delights in mass-meet-
ings
But in such a primary election as was held
in this city Thursday there was no opportu-
nifty given the professional fxer-up" to ply
his vocation, and so the honest sentiment Of
the people was able TO be expressed without
let or hindrance The result was that the
politicians were completely routed, and the
voice Of the people made itself heard. Pop
ular sovereignty trumphed over the machine
and friends of Cleveland swept the city with
irresistible force.
And Mr.. Cleveland will sweep the country
with the same force IN November next for he
is the candidate of the people, and the people
are fully determined to have their way and
not be oyerridden with the politicians. These
latter gentlemen are excellent in their places,
but their legitimate position is that of public
servants When they forget this and seek
10 be masters and attempt to force their
favorites upon the people, as they have done
in this instance, then the masters Will assert
themselves, as they did in Richmond, and as
they will do at Chicago and at the polls on
election day.

TIE administration is mad with John Sher-
man. 1t claims that IT rendered him material
aid and assistance in his reelection TO the
United States Senate and that in return he
is threatening to enter the presidential race
against Harrison. Quite d sensation has been
created in the Ohio colony at Washington by
what is characterized as Shermans ingrati-
tude. lie is charged with having not only re-
ceved from the President the assistance OF
every Federal official from Ohio in Washing
ton. but ne also drew on the Office holding
contingent from various outside States
so that he might beat Foraker
This was given him on condition that he give
Harrison his loyal support. and now the
office-holders assert that he has broken faith
and is allowing his name to be used to defeat
the President. Whether these changes are
true or not is matter of very little cOnse-
quence to the Democracy but Sherman has
longed for the Presidency for 10 these many
years, and if he saw Il chance TO capture the
glittering prize he would hardly permit a
debt of gratitude TO stand IN his way

DESTROYS of joining by writing a letter to
London abusing New York city in particular
and American institutions and customs gen.
orally When Mr.. kipling was here year
OF 80 ago he amused himself bywriting letters
from the Pacific coast abusing this country
from there. AS Balaam of old wanted to do
to the children of Israel he seems to want TO
curse this country from all points. The
curious part of it all is that though Mr.. Kip.
ling despises the United States so cordially
he won't keep away. There is no reason why
he should leave his beloved Europe to nurse
his dyspepsia over here.

The Following Special Was Sent to The
Times From Washington Last Night.
The result of the Democratic primaries in
Richmond was watched with remarkable in
terest here IN Washington where there has
been considerable speculation as 10 how the
State of Virginia stood IN the presidential
race. The Cleyelaud Victory at Richmond is
most gratifying to the friends OF the ex- Pres
ideut. Colonel OFerrall says il shows that
Cleveland Will have a clear majority IN the
State Convention. While the anti-Cleyeland
forces do not concede this they are evidently
very much disturbed.
Representative Bryan will attend the State
Convention next Thursday and will probably
deliver an address. He Is one OF the finest
orators IN Congress. Mr.. Bryan IS an admirer
of Governor Boies, of Iowa. and he thinks tie
action of the Iowa Convention in determining
10 present the Governor as the choice of the
State Democracy for President renders him a
formidable candidate.
