A Grand Success.

The box social of the CaSa Grande lodge of Good Templags last Saturday e.ening, was very successful, netting the lodge s22.s Much amusement was derlle from the efforts of the gentlemen to learn in advance of the sale whose were the boxes. One young man thought he hal ciphered it out straight. and that particular box be- lonced 10 his own diyiaity. He accord ingly laid back and bid on no oox until that one was put UT. Then he brayely bid three dollars. Someone else bid two bits Letter, and he jumped the hid to four dollars. The other party raised another quarter, and then the eager young man bid four dollars and six hits. at which figure he got the box. Nhea th9 boxes were oycneG he found that instead of the sweet and charming young girl he had In his minds eye when bidding, the box be- longed to an elderly lady, old enough to be his grandmother, with an eye single to her own enjoyment, and de- termlned to get 1t, which she did. or course his misfortune added to the rest of the enjoyment of the rest of the happy party who viewed with no little amusement his efforts to eat four-dollars-and-six-bits lunch with a two-blt appetite.

Going to the north side the voracious beast siezed by the arm little girl about six years of age, dragged her from her cot and around the house in the direc- tion whence he came. The Outcries of the child quickly aroused everyone, and they were not long fin determining the cause. Mr. West ran into the house and got pistol. As he came out of the door Mrs. West called that the beast was passing her cot. The cries of the child, however, were sufii- cient to locate it's whereabouts. Go- ing close Mir.

ton of the SHERMAN law. We do not know
how many of the farmers OF Virginia are
Alliance men. nor how many Of them hold
the doctrines set forth in the paper adopt
cd by their state Alliance on Tuesday.
Our own opinion IL that almost the whole
body Of tho Virginia farmers will be found
voting the Democratic ticket next Novem-
Der. Anyhow, II may be regarded as cor
tain, we suppose, that good many Al
lance men Will vote with the Democrats
And IN view Of this expectation the Demo-
cratic State Convention may modify its
utterances on the question thus submit
ted 70 their consideration by the Alliance
men. We say submitted TO its conside-
ration" because we take it that assem-
bling in State convention but two days
before the Democratic State Conventions
day of meeting the Alliance men intended
and hoped for the Democrats to fall into
line with them on this subject But the
"shrewd Virginia politicians ought not
to be too shrewd. The SHERMAN act must
be repealed. It's continuance upon the
statute-book would insure the continuance
of the stringency in the money market,
for, though that law may have had nothing
70 do with that stringency, the people think
1t had and will clamor until Il is buried
out of sight.
What we would impress upon the minds
Of the delegates TO the State Convention Is
the truth of the old saying, THE least
said the soonest mended." 1t may posi-
bly, be that the silver and anti-silver fac
tons are at the parting of the roads. The
President will. we are assured by those
who ought to know. refuse TO sign any bill
providing for the free coinage of silver.
The veto of such a bill might split the
Democratic party in twain. Let Virginia
Democrats "set the pace" for the whole
country. Let them find OF make way
out of our difficulties. LET brotherly
love prevail" Let no censure, expressed
or implied, be visited upon the President.
Nobody but himself can imagine the
weight of responsibility which renders
uneasy the head that wears such crown
as the millions Of voters of this great re-
public have placed upon his head.

Platform or No Platform?

The Lynchburg Nc,rs tells by implica-
ton what may be expected to result If the
convention of today adopts n platform
either in favor Of free coinage or against
free coinage. Read:
NOW is tho time when Michael Harter aud
other political charatans are shaneesslY dis
avowing the national platform on the ioor oil
Congress-now is tho time Tor virginia, With
Characteristic courage, 10 rea1irm the doctrine
upon which we triumphe1 last November. Let
the State Convention rci.orate the dec araton
of the national Democratic platform IN favor #
n bimetallic system Of curroncy. Lot not this
Commonwealth be the first State g repudiate
the very c, institutional doctrne upon which the
Democratic party Of tbs nation successfully mp
pealed to the American people last fan
But the President is as guilty as MICHAEL
HARrER, who is one of the ablest men IN
the House Of Representatives. Mr.. CLEvE-
LAND has shamelessly disavowed the
national platform-that is, as the Nous
understands that platform, but not as be
understood 1t when he was a candidate.
nor when he was elected. He has always
opposed free coinage. He may be wrong,
but he is not chsrgeable with incon-
sistency.
But if the Virginia platform shall be
such n one as the NeirS would have what Is
Mr. CLEVELAND to do? As Mr.. WEBSTER
asked in ls41 Mr.. CLEVELAND may ask now,
"Where am | to gO:"
Whatever we say let us say so that 1t
cannot bear two meanings.

A somewhat astonishing ray OF leht has bcen

tho announcement thai Senator Gray, VINO Is
supposed TO DO the personal representative OF
the administration on ihe Steering Committee
had stated in caucus that Re "yio!ated no con-
fdonce In saying that the President IS In favor
OF bimotelism." Senator Gray. 1t seems. made
this statement while urging the unconditional
repeal Of the sherman bill. lilo takes the ground
that the President IL anxious TO have the financial
subject fully considered and satisfactorily adjust
ed, but insists upon the repeal o. the sherman
act first Washington Letter in Nei7 York sun.
All reports go to show that Mr.. CLEyE-
