SOUND MONEY WINS
The SILVER Repeal Bill Is at Last
Passed by the Senate.
ELETEN MAJORITY GIVEN.
THE VOTE STOOD 43 IN FAVOR AND 80
AGAINST THE MEASURE.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.--The bill for the
unconditional repeal OF the silver-purchase
clause of the Sherman law passed the
Senate at half-past 7 o'clock this evening
by vote of 43 ayes to 30 noes. For
three months the bill had occupied the
attention of the Senate to the exclusion
OF all other business. 1t had been
debated as perhaps no single bill ever
before the American Senate has been
discussed. The House of Representatives
passed the bill on Monday, August 26,
three weeks after the beginning of the
session, and although the Senate had
been discussing it practically all the time
it was under consideration in the House,
they kept 1t before them for exactly nine
weeks after it came from the House before
voting its final passage. The bill was
passed, with the Voorhees, amendment,
exactly as it was reported from the
committee on finance on August %.
AL that now remains to be done before
the President can afix his signature to 1t
is for the House to agree to the Senate
amendment. 1t is expected the House
will do this tomorrow. The bill will
probably receive the Presidents signature
and become law on Wednesday morning
If the bill is signed at that time the
silver purchases made by the Treasury
Department today are the last that will
be made under the Sherman law.

The Election.

On next Tuesday, the elections for State
Oficers and members of the Legislature
will take place in this State. For State
officers there are three tickets in the field,
viz. The Democratic, the Populst, and
the Prohibltionist. The indications are
that the Democratic ticket will carry the
State by considerable majority. The
populists have'strengtb in some coun ties,
but not in great number. Many of the
Republicans will vote the populist ticket,
but US party the- will not vote it. The
platform is so antagonistlc to the Re-
publican doctrines that only those who
support tha populst ticket in order to lie
10 opposition to the Democrats will vote
it. 1t is said, with ho~ much truth we
do not know. that about one-third of the
negroes Will support the Democratic
ticket, and that large number will not
vote at all. The Prohibitionists have
strength in soveIy few counties that they
can hardly be considered a factor in the
State contest.
For the house of Delegates, We have
3 Quadrlateral fight IN this couu-
ty, and on account of the number of can
didates and the uncertainty as to the
strength of each, the county can be very
fairly rated AS doubtful.
Mr.. w. T. Mooney of Ashby District is
an independent candidate. His announce
ment which appears in another column
does not show from what party he expects
to draw most of his votes.
Mr.. W. A. Sager of StOnewall District
Is the candidate of the Prohibitionists.
Besides the vote of his party, MI Sager
has personal strength in bis own dis
trlet which which will make the Prohibi-
tion vote larger than it has ever been in
this county.
Mr.. Daniel Spiker OF Davis District is
Republican candidate, and will, we have
no doubt, receive the Republican vote of
the county. Mr.. Splker also has some
personal strength which will increase his
vote, to some extent, in his own neigh |
b0rhood.
Capt. J. G. Nef is the regularly nomi
mated candidate Of the Democratic party |
and will receive the vote of that party.
As to the probability of election our
readers are in as good position to Judge
IS We are. 1t Will depend upon organlza-
ton and the interest manifested by the
people. We will promise, however, to
give the result in our next issue.

Hon. Holmes Conrad.

The name Of Hon. Holmes Conrad, we
learn from the Winchester Leader. will be
presented to the Legislature for election
to the United States Senate. The Legis-
lstuse can not find man within the
borders of the State who would represent
Virginia more ably in the United States
Ser ate than Holmes Conrad. The fact
that he is from the Valley of Virginia is
no reason why lie should be chosen. Were
he from the most remote corner Of the
State his claims would be as great for
Virginia, in honoring him, would honor
herself. Mr.. Conrad would be the peer
of any man in the United States Senate,
and every virginian would have the right
to feel proud OF her representation in that
body.
Mr.. Conrad says he will not resort to
"stratagem," to secure his election. This
fact should make him stronger with the
people and with the Legislature. Trad
ing politicians have been the curse of the
to1ntry. When men shall be selected,
without regard to location, on account of
their ability and sterling qualities, to
represent the people in the councils of the
nation, they can be relied upon to legis-
late for the good of the whole people.
Men who resort to petty trades in order
TO secure the highest Offices of the land,
defrsud the people and disgrace them
selves; for it is impossible to make giants
ost of pigmies, and statesmen out Of
insignificant trading political acrobats.

The End at Last.

The bill repeating the purchasing clause
Of the Sherman bill passed the Senate
last Monday. The delay in the Senate
caused some anxiety and at one time, II
was ghought that it could not pass, not
withdrawing the fact that a majority was
in favor Of it. The final passage Of the
bill demonstrated the fact that a majority
still rules In both houses of Congress.
The effect of the bill will be a restors-
tion of confidence in the currency Of the
country. The long discussion has had
Que very sanitary effect in the fact that
1t has demonstrated that the masses Of
the people of the United States are in
favor of sound currency. In some sec.
tions it has given birth TO few free silver
men who love to pirate about gold bugs"
and the ''bardships of the poorer classes
but who from a very singular view Of the
subject, never realize that the doctrines
which they advocate would, as their
adoption has always done heretofore,
bring wholesale panic and ruin to all
clsssss OF society-a ruin which would
bear more heavily upon the labOring
classes than any other.

part Of her youth she ives an invalid and

Execution of DOC" Taylor.


WISE G. H., Va, Oct H-Marsball
B. Taylor was hanged at noon to-day at
this place for the murder of the Mullans
family on May 18th, 1892. Ho was born
in Scott county, Va, about SO years ago.
After having acquired a primitive ed
ucation he studied medicine and removed
to Kentucky where he praciiced his
profession. During bis residence in Ken
lucky he was arrested ard tried for the
murder of Robert Moore but his counsel
proved an alibi, although it is generally
believed here that be was guilty. During
the war be volunteered In the COnftder-
ate army but at the first skirmish IN
which his company was engaged, he
deserted and came home.
The crime for which Taylor paid the
penalty was more in the nature OF
massacre than an ordinary murder. Old
Ira M0llans, man who was so lame that
be could not walk step. lived at Pound
Gap, near the State line, between Ken
tucky and Virginia. At the time the
murder was committed be had been to
Letcher county, Ky, and was returning
in company with his wife, his daughter,
his brother, John Mullsns, and his wife
and son. These with boy, who was the
driver, composed the party and John
Mullan's wife and son were all that we're
left to tell the story. The party were
waylaid by Taylor and two Others, John
and Henan Fleming, who came out OF the
woods and commenced firing at close
range into the wagon with the above
mentioned result. They then proceeded
to rife the pockets Of their victims, secur-
ing from Ira Mulans the price OF the
land he had sold. ard mutilatsd the
bodies of their victims in the most inde-
cent manner possible. Taylor was ar
rested as be was boarding . westbound
passenger train. The Flsmings are still
at large although strenuous efforts have
been made for their capture
