Times was referring TO the fact that
MIR. Martin was almost an unknown man

that by some sort OF unknown. but power
fol cxtraneous influence-to use the ex-
preston OF the Dispatch-he had secured

IL Is 20 be feared that the eyes OF
| the Post are so jaundiced about the
people Of the South that 1t cannot
see clearly the state Of feeling and opin-
ion that exist here. Virginia is Demo
cratic State, not in the sense merely OF
State which regularly casts It's vote
for the Democratic nominee for Presi-
dent, but in the sense OF her people be-
ing truly and at heart Democrats, who
are hercely in love with the principle
Her people are Jeffersonian Democrats
in their hearts and I'm their feelings. We
do not, as the Post seems 10 do, consider
a man honored because his business Is
that OF a hair dresser or working tallow-
chandler, because that would be TO dis
ting,hsh between businesses. and 1t is
not the business that honors the man.
but the man that honors the business
But we do not consider "A man as in any
respect whatever barred from entering

to see either installed into their highest
Offices, II they are able TO attain to them

We will confess however, to the Post .
that Virginians have got a prejudice in

days been in communication with q man
named Linville. of Greenfield. who is seek-
ing to learn of the whereabouts of his
brother. Taylor B.. LinvIlle, who mysteri-
ously disappeared from this city over a
year ago. From some cause the mstter was
never before reported to the police. and it
Is only within the past week that nything
was known of the mystery. Linville was
a vounG man in the employ of the Van
Camp Hardware and Iron Company. and
in September of last yea suddenly
left here to 60 to Louisville. where
he remained but a short time,
going from there 10 Central, Kentucky. A
month later he returned to Louisville and
since that time he has not been heard from.
HIS friends have made q thorough search
fer him, but have grown discouraged and
fear that he has met with foul play. The
missing young man ie said to have been a
model of integrity and had no habits that
would he likely to lead him into trouble.
He boarded at the Pyle House while in this
city, and q mem Der of landlord POwelPs
family claims to have seen him In Central.
Kentucky. q few months ago. while pass
ing through that place. IL Is reported that
Linville was engaged to be married to MIR.
POwelfs daughter and that the event was
to have occurred shortly after his disap
Dearancc. The landlord denied the rumor
and says that the young man was merely q
warm friend Of the family.

STATE HEADQUARTERS ASSIGNED.
Grand Army Departments Will All Be in One
Building. the StaiehOuse.

The Statehouse has been occurred for the
Grand Army encampment. and will be
used as headquarters for the various State
departments. The assignment of rooms to
the national headquarters and to the vari-
Gus States was made yesterday by the ex-
cutive director.
Heretofore the quarters of the differ
emit States have been located in the hotels.
halls and store rooms. and consequently
have been widely separated, causing no
little difficulty for those wanting to visit
them. Under the arrangement which has
been made here by the officers of the oiti-
zens' executive board the headquarters
will be In one building. where they can be
easily found. and each department will be
more commodiously provided for than
probably ever before, as the rooms W hich
have been set apart for them are large.
we'll lighted and surrounded with exeep-
tional eonveniences. Another very popu-
lar feature of the arrangements il that the
quarters are provided for different depart
ments without charge. while heretofore they
have. In nearly every instance. been COM
PEELED to pay for what they could get ard
often exorbitant charges have been MADE.
Hero their quarters will cost them nothing
but what they may be disposed to spend on
decorations. The assignments made are as
follows:
