can see before them an opportunity 70

Of the democrats IN that body 10 put

the pension money is collected in the
South and expended in The North. and
so they stand mp and boldly dcnounce
the practice a compelling applicants for
pensions 10 prove themselves worthy"
before being permitted to put their hands
into the Treasury. This Is done despite
the fact that the revenues Of the govern
ment are already unequal 70 the pay

What ought the Democrats in Congress
20 do under such circumstances? They
are on the ground in Washington. and

"lu speaking Of the mucr-talk.d-of idea

Mccormick was of the opinion that th-
law. under which the Democrats obtainc /
nearly 51OHl majority at every election.
WAS good enough for all \iIsinians. H.
dd not think that a new law would Ia
passed 10 take tn plac. of the Anderson
Mccormick one. As 90 adopting the Au-
straliau-hallot system In this state, h.
did not think this would meet with the
approval Of the present Legislature. Tho
political leaders arc perfectly well salts
fed with the clcction-law as it now stands,
under which the people Of Virginia have
cast their ballots for The past ten years,
and see no reason for changing it,
For forms Of government let fools CON
test

That is TO say the Anderson-McCormck

istorcd, or carried out, VIII prove to be
fair and just in IT'S operation.
