1t Is a Necessity.

Attorney Chamberlain, of st. Paul, has
rendered himself famous. He has de-
cided that the newspaper is a NECESSITY
not luxury, and we heartily agree with
him.
The case in which this opinion was in
volved was as follows: Some of the
stern sticlllers for rigid economy of St.
Paul have been endeavoring to deprive
the inmates of the almshouse and hos
pital supported by the city, of the news
papers, adding rider that they were
''luxuries''
The case was referred to Corporation
Attorney Chamberlain for his opinion,
and in it he stated that the newspaper
was a NECESSITY, and that the City
Council would not be justified in depriv
iag the inmates of the institutions re-
ferred to of their newspapers
Commenting on the above the Wash
ing5on Post says:
s.Selfish motives will undoubtedly COM
mend this opinion to every newspaper
in the country, but aside from this the
opinion of Attorney Chamberlain is a
sensible one, and greatly to his credit.
Long ago the newspaper ceased to be
luxury. No persen can afford to deprive
himself of its great benefits, and those
whose circumstances permit patroniZe
the newspaper and receive the most
profitable returns.
1t is misfortune for one to be COM
pellel to take refuge in an almshouse or
city hospital. The misfortune would be
largely augmented if they were com
PEELED to undergo this isolation without
the benefit to be derived from the peru
sal of newspapers. AS necessary of life
the newspaper is well up on the list"
1t is to be hoped that our friends in
Allegheny will also look at the news
paper as necessity and send in their
to the VIRGINIAN right
away.

THE "NOSER"

Who presides over the recognized organ
of the "Grinning Club and gives special
attention to the pEr2eyors of gossip,
tries to be funny at the expense Of the
VIRGINIAN, in his last edition:
We acknowledge that we cannot cope
with journalist who can boast of such
a distinguished eatree into the profess
sion as the ''Noser.n He is entitled to
the undisputed credit of cutting his
journalistic eye-teeth on the Pocahontas
VIVA Times. which perhaps circulates
within the broad limits of Huntersyille.
Any description of this publication
would be inadequate. 1t must'be seen
in order that it's true merits may be
judged. Its midget proportions would
attract the curious. Thus having ac>
quired thirst for journalism, he came
to Clifton in order that he might seize
the first opportunity to show his glitter
ing genious. The opportune moment
came when Maj. Yost retired from the
VIRGINIAN. The "Noser' was placed at
the helm, and his success was phenome-
| nal-simply startling! In short three
months the red flag was thrown to the
breeze and the discordant notes of the
Auctioneer noated out upon the atmos,
phere. Under these most suspicious cir
cumstances the present editor came to
the rescue. We admit that it was stu
pendous undertaking = to retain the
prestige which was then the heritage OF
the VIRGINIAN-bu we actually under
took the herculean task.
From this pinnacle of fame, reached
after the most wonderful productions,
which have completely overshadowed
the dull writings of Mark Twain, Josh
Billings, Bill Nye and Eli Perkins, this
intellectual giant moves with majestic
stride, seeking whom he may devour.

Postoface to be Removed

Owing to the bad sanitary condition
of the room used as the postof1ice in
Staunton Postmaster McCue has recon-
mended to the department at Washing
ton change of location. 1t is expected
that an inspector will be here soon to
look into the matter. If moved, the
postoffice will be kept in the handsome
new Palmer building, on Main street
west and nearly opposite the place where
the Office was kept before its removal a
year ago to it's present quarters. -St0atn-

THE PLATFORM ADOPTED.

Colonel Goode then submitted TIE re-
port of this committee, which was receiv-
ed with much interest, all things being
considered. Below is given the platform
of the conventions:
The representatives of the democratic
party in Virginia, in convention assem-
bled, reaffirming their allegiance to the
principles of the party as formulated by
Mr.. Jefferson and exemplifed by long
line of llustrious Virginians, and con
graduating the people upon The bench
Gent results of Democratic admlnlstfa-
ton whenever the Democratic party has
had control of the State and federai
government, to declare:
/. The Democratic party, having found
ed the public>school system of Virginia.
and having secured it's efficiency oy wlse
legislation, pledges itself to the people
that it will continue to extend to that
system loyal and generous support an,
til every child in the Commonwealth shali
receive the benefits of an education
PROMOTE AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS.
2. The Democratic party OF Virginia,
being largely composed OF farmers ana
believing that the prosperity OF the stare
is dependent upon the-success OF agflcui-
ture, pledges itself that it will, by the
encouragement of proper legislation 90
all in it's power to promote and advance
the agricultural interests OF the State
The Democratic party favors the most
rigid economy in the administration OF
the State, government, revision OF the
laws regulating the criminal expenses OF
the State, and the enactment OF such
statutes as will equalize the assessments
of property ereturned for taxation. The
meagre returns from agriculture arouse
the desire to relieve as far as possible the
lands of the State by the imposition OF
taxes upon avocations, enterprises. ane
other interests which can better bearthe
burden,

Another Wreck.

On Thursday another bad freight
wreck occurred on the Chesapeake y
Ohio at Pedlar, which delayed traffic for
some time. Eight cars were off the track.
No one was hurt.-Buchan0a Banner.
The Valley Virginian. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1865-1895, 1893-08-24
THE PRESIDENT ENDORSED.

70. We applaud the prompt and pa
triotic action of the President in issu
ing his proclamation converting Congress
in extraordinary session, and we antici-
pate with hope and confidence the adop-
ton of such measures by the Democratic
Senate and House of Representatives as
will afford speedy relief to the people
from the financial troubles by which
they are now environed.
10 Grover Cleveland having been
elected President of the United States
upon the platform of principles enunci-
ciated at Chicago, deserves and will re :
ceive the cordial and united support of
the Virginia Democracy. Judging the
future by the past, we confidently ex
pect at his hands an able, patriotic, and
honest ADMINISTRATION.
IA. Cherishing an abiding faith that
all the great interests of our State and
country are dependent upon the continu-
ed ascendency of the Democratic party,
we submit its principles, it's politics, its
claims, and its candidates to the enlight-
ened and patriotic judgment of the Vir-
ginia people.
The platform was adopted by unani-

TILE OYSTER INTEREST.

4. The Democratic party of Virginia,
regarding the oyster industry as one OF
inestiInable value to the State, will foster
it for the benefit of its own citizens; will
preserve to them the use of ali natural
oyster~rocks, beds, and shoals, and will
oppose the transfer or surrender OF the
public rights therein to individuals, cor
porations, or syndicate and we pledge
the party to the correction OF all unequal
and unjust taxation which may exist
upon this great industry.
The Valley Virginian. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1865-1895, 1893-08-24
pENsIoNs AND GOOD ROADS.

S. The Democratice party of Virginia,
remembering the unselfish services of her
patriotic defenders during the civil war,
and recognizing her sacred obligation to
care for her surviving sons who were dis.
abled during that great struggle, and
the widows of those who sacrificed their
lives will continue to favor such liberal
appropriations within the resources OF
the State as will attend to the accom>
plishment of that end.
6. We believe that the construction
of good roads will largely promote the
prosperity of our people by attracting
immigration, enhancing the value OF
real estate, and securing better facilities
for transportation to market. We there
fore earnestly recommended the enact.
ment of such legislation as may me nee
essary for the improvement of.the copdi-
ton of the public highways.

TARIFF REFORM AND CURRENCY.


g.. While it is true that only State off
GERS are to be chosen at the approaching
election in November, we cannot ignore
the fact that Virginia, as sovereign and
coeuual member of the Union, is deeply
and vitality interested in those questions
of tariff reform and financial relief which
are now challenging the earnest thought
and deIibtrate attention of the American
people er@s
10. Upon the great question of the
currency we reiterate the principles an
nonnced in the national convention at
Chicago and endorsed with much unpar-
alleled unanimity by the people of this
country at the polls in November last.
We urge upon our Senators and Repre-
sentatives in Congress the speedy enact
ment of such laws as will carry out the
provisions of that platform and relieve
the country from the. disastrous finan-
cial condition to which the unwise and
reckless legislation of the Republican
party has brought it. We insist upon
the passage of such legislation as will
provide for an expansion of the currency
sufficient to meet the business needs of
the country without delay. In like man
ner we endorse the principles announced
by the Chicago convention placing upon
Congress the imperative duty of carry
ing into effect by appropriate legisla>
ton the declarations of that plat
form so soon as the more pressing needs
of the currency problem has received at
tention. We recommend that the pros
hibitory 10 per cent. tax in our State
bank issues be repealed.

ENDORSE M'KINNEY's ADMINISTER

u
Z. We cordially endorse the wise, pa
triotic, and judicious administration Of
Governor Mckinney We congratulate
the people of Virginia that the settle
ment of her State debt has been at last
perfected on terms alike acceptable to her
creditors, honorable to the State, and
within tie limits of her ability to pay.
The final and successful solution of this
vexed question has been accomplished
under Democratic administration and
through the efforts of Democratic off
Gals
s. We denounce the policy of the
Federal control of elections to which the
Republican party has committed itself
as fraught with the gravest dangers, and
we demand the repeal of all congress
sional legislation that countenances in
reference with the freedom of elections
by the appointment of Federal supervis-
ors to revise the registration lists and
scrutinize the ballots and Federal mar
shals to overawe the people by their
presence at the polls.

This is n house with 4 side entrance.
At first thought going in at the side of
the house or in any other way than
through the direct front is objection
able But there are many decided ad-
vantages when one comes to look into
the question carefully. The door of
this house faces to the front but Is
several feet back of the front line of
the house There are two rooms in

easily seen that rms would be deprived
