time Of the election. Colonel O'Ferrall
has paired his vote in Congress and has
given himself over to Mr.. Ellyson's
management and from now on will be
busily engaged in speech making and in
personal work among the people.
His associates on the State ticket will
exert their best efforts in the same d.
rection, all with the ultimate end in
view OF reaping one of the biggest vic.
tories in the history of the State.
There are no apparent reasons why
this cannot be done. With the Repub.
lican party badly crippled and really
not in the fight at all quick work can
be made of the Populist and Prohibit
ton party followings by strict advocacy
OF the policy of the Democracy as eluci-
dated by the Chicago and Richmond
platforms.
AS State issues are most largely at
stake, and as national affairs it Is to be
presumed will be satisfactorily settled
by the time the election occurs, only
the Richmond platform will need be
considered to much length.
The present administration has an
admirable record; the Virginia Democ-
racy can present facts which cannot be
disputed and with these two standards
with the future promises which the
people can rely upon being kept the
campaign can be successfully carried
along.

JUDGE KERR's speech last night was a
continuity of ranting dogmas. series
of illogical conclusions, and wealth of
abusive trade upon the two political
parties in general and the Democracy in
particular. Admitting that the able
jurist is a brilliant speaker and from this
fact won the applause of his five hun,
dred listeners, his remarks upon cool
after consideration will fall fat upon
the minds of the thinking people who
were numbered among his audience
People who are able to Judge for them.
selves will at once cast aside his state
ments as purely bits of rubbish for
which they have no further use. In
his whole speech, although he was pro-
fnse in his criticisms, he failed to show
an what way the the situation, under
the guidance of his party, could be i'm
proved. He failed to outline the policy
of his party, if it has one to outline. and
volunteered no sugg estions OF how the
present crisis OF the country could be
settled or how future affairs could be
met.

1t Disgusted the Bank Teller.

FROM the Lynchburg News.
The receipts at the internal revenue
office in this city yesterday amounted
to $4,000 in cash, of which about SO, 600
in round figures were in silver. 1t
weighed over 1877 pounds and caused
Cashier Baskerville to bend his back
when he ":oted" it down to the Lynch
burg National Bank to deposit it. When
he thumped the package of blinking
coins down on the teller's counter, he
was almost paralyzed by the expression
that came over Teller Joe Gordon's
speaking coun.enance. Tho idea of
counting that 1877 pounds of SILVER piece
by piece made him tired and. though ne
said nothing, he looked unutterable
things and doubtless chunk his own
thoughts" about the man who would
impose such mental job upon an ex-
pert accountantlike himself. The man
was Mr.. Edward Mahoney, OF Ports
mouth, president OF tho Mahoneyville
Distillery Comp any, and ha shipped the
silver more by express to pay the tax on
lot OF whiskey he wanted to take out
of bond.

During the prevalence of the Grippe
the past seasons it was noticeable
fact that those who depended upon DR.
Kings New Discovery, not only had q
speedy recovery, but escaped all of the
trou ,lesome after effects of the malady.
This remedy seems to have a peculiar
power in effecting rapid cures not only
in cases of La Grippe, but in all

WITH A MIGHTY RUSH
A Flood Sweeps Through
the Miami Valley.
MANY HOMES SWEPT AWAY.
Torrents of Rain and q Cyclone in Por-
tions of North Carolina.

BELLRFoNTAIEE, o., May 4-The Lew
iston reservoir broke yesterday and q SEQ
ton of the dam about 100 feet lonk swung
back and body of water containing 1900
acres started down the Miami valley with
a roar. The first thing 1t struck was q
covered bridge 100 feet long. It carried
the stone supports from under 1t, and they
fell with a crash and were carried down
with the current.
All bridges in the valley within seven
miles of the reservoir were swept away and
a large tract Of land, including the towns
of Lewiston and Lakeview, were entirely
surrounded by water, their only means Of
communication with the outer world be-
ing by rowing across the reservoir above
the dam, and even this could only be done
with difficulty 80 swift was the current.
The breach in the dam is about 10 feet deep
and the water in the reservoir has thus far
fallen only 10 inches.
This gives some idea of the amount Of
water In 1t and the time II will take it to
empty. The men are powerless to do any
thing to check the water. The inhabitants
of the vicinity Of the threatening danger
worked as only those who see their homes
In danger can work. Brushwood and logs
were carried and piled in front of the dams
in hopes that the water might be held back
and their homes saved, but they were COM
pelled to fee from the gap and watch the
water sweep over their homes.
This is the second time the dam has
broken within the last 10 years, and al
though there is no blame attached to the
officials who have charge of it, since the
recent heavy rains were the cause Of the
breakage,yet there is a general feelinghere
that the reservoir should be abolished

FIRST ON RECORD.
DestrucHvs Cyclone Sweeps Through Por-
tion OF North Carolina.

RALEIGH. May AT 8 o'clock last even
ing terrific cyclone struck this part Of
the state. 1t destroyed several buildings
at Oxford, 40 miles from here. As all the
wires are down 1t is impossible to get par
ticulars of the calamity at that place Tho
path Of the cyclone was $50 yard wide, and
1t passed through the western part of the
town, wrecking several large tobacco ware
houses. Several persons were caught In
the ruins of the large buildings and one
was killed.
The Adams tobacco warehouse was
badly damaged. 1t is the first cyclone on
record in that section and the excitement
il intense. The Masonic orphan asylum,
in which there are 800 orphans, narrowly
escaped.
The storm crossed the tracks of the Sea-
board Air line at Grsystone, where 1t also
wrecked several buildings and injured
three persons. Torrents of rain have fallen
and severe storms are reported in other
sections. 1t Is very stormy here.
