Gently started in the interest of the Third
party movement, publishes this morning the
last issue of his paper. Slr. ba% iihgs has
abundant meaus TO continue the publication,
even without any income from the paper
itself, and his reasons for abandoning the
Third party az this time are undoubtedly
those stated in his vsledctory.
At the recent Third Party Convention IN
Richmond he was elected a delegate to the
Omaha Convention aud chosen rs an elector
for the Seventh district.
His retirement from active cooperation
with the party at this time leaves General
James g. Field as the only chaser of the
Third party ignis fatuus in this county, and
his friends believe that his good sense will
suggest prompt imitation Of Mr. Rawlings
patriotic course.
Mr. Rawlings says, by way Of valedictory:
With this issue VIC discontinue the publ
cation OF the Virginia People. believing that
in doing 30 we will promote the material and
political interests OF Virginia. As an lndi-
vidual we intend 10 vote for Cleveland and
Stevenson. declining to 60 tO Omaha az
delegate and TO act as an electOr for the
Seventh congressional district The NOyem-
Der election will decide the question Of Force
bill and negro rule in our State. and one vote
may decide the result. UndOu btedly, the
contest will be very bitter and the vote very
close. The Prohibitionists, if the election
took place to-day. would poll 1000
votes. and the Peoples party about the
same number. but by November both OF
these parties will see the trend of their politi-
cal action and return 30 the Old parties. Both
OF these new parties have drawn more than
nine-tenths of their strength from the Demo,
cratic party. and if not abused and belittled
10y that party they will generally return be
tore November. As to the negroes. we be-
lieve thev viii be unit IN voting for harri-
the whites. The main issue next fall being
the Force bill. we believe that hundreds Of
white Republicans will vote the Democratic
ticket. as we have heard them denounce this
bin frequently in Albemarle."
