A Slight Inconsistency.

Henry St. George Tucker, author Of
the bill for the repeal of federal cleo
ton laws, was born in Winchester,
Va. He is very decidedly of opinion
that the federal government should
not exercise any control whatever over
the election of President, Nice-Presi
dent, or representatives in Congress,
but should leave the whole matter to
to the people of each community to
act as they see proper under laws en-
acted by the legislatures of the several
States. The laws which he desires to
have repealed provide for the appoint
ment of deputy United States mar
shals whose duty it is TO see that cleo
tons are fairly and honestly conduct
ed and proper returns made, and APP
ply only to cities of more than 20, 900
population.
Mr.. Tucker will pardon us for re-
ferring to the condition of affairs i'll
the city of his birth. The Anderson
Mccormick election law, by which
Winchester is governed, was enacted
by the legislature of Virginia for the
sole purpose Of installing and keeping
Democrats in power in that city. 1t
provides that all the election officers
shall be Democrats and that Demo-
cratic constable shall guard" the
polls. The blanket" Australian bal
lot contains the names of all candidates
and no one but the aforesaid consta-
bic can assist in its preparation. The
effect of this most villainous enact
ment was to largely reduce the vote
and place the city firmly in the grasp
of the Democratic ring,
The arrangement is perfect. No
matter what vote may be cast, let it
be overwhelmingly Republican, or let
any man or measures receive ever so
large a vote, it is the simplest thing
in the world to throw out as defective
enough ballots to keep the friends of
the election officers in control of the
city
Mr.. Tucker and our faace bill'
friends can find food for reflection in
the special law which denies to the
citizens of Winchester the right Of
suffrage.
The federal laws were enacted for
the purpose of securing a free vote
and fair count In the large cities and
Democrats want those laws repealed
The Anderson Mccormick law was
concocted for the purpose of prevent
ing anything like fair election in
Winchester and Democrats are pleas
ed with the result of their scheme.
Great is Democracy

IN sAcKcLoTH AND ASHES.

A sorry spectacle was presented
Tuesday when many leading Demo-
Gratis from this State appeared before
the Ways and Means Committee to
protest against the plans Of tie emf
nent free trader who misrepresents
this district.
But the West Virginians were not
alone. There were prominent Demo
Gratis from nearly all the Southern
States. They went to plead for the re-
tention of the Mckinley "robber tar
iff," which, but few short months
ago, they were denouncing as uncon-
stitutional and as "a vampire sucking
the life blood of the Nation" These
men came from louisiana which gave
SO. 900 majority for reform, from
South Carolina, North Carolina, Ala
bama, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia,
Maryland, and other sections of the
South which has grown in wealth and
prosperity under Republican rule-the
South, in which, in many places, it is
all man life is worth to be known
as Republican-the South, in almost
every portion of which Republicans
have been ostracised socially and in a
business way-the South, which per-
sists in retaining and maintaining an
tebellum business methods and pref
udices and which as persistently
counts up monster majorities tor the
free-trade Democracy. These men
came from the South, where Bourbon
ism reigns supreme and where Repub-
licanism dares not raise its voice
Louisiana wants the bounty on
sugar retained, South Carolina lice
cannot be produced without protec-
ton, West Virginia coal and timber
and iron cannot compete in the "mar-
kets of the world" with like foreign
products unless guarded by the Nc
Kinley law. So it goes through the
entire gamut.
Governor MacCorkle, more frank
than others, stated that he could
think of no West Virginia industry
which could survive reduction of
the tariff.
These men have, in all the years of
the past, done everything in their
power to injure the Republican party,
the bulwark of protection, and now,
when free trade, with starvation prices,
stares them in the face, they relent
and beg Mr. Wilson, who is chairman
of the Ways and Means Committee by
virtue of the fact that he is free ira
der, to save them from themselves,

ANOTHER FATAL CRASH.

a point ten miles north Of Kankakee, tele.

Ing nine people and seriously injuring q
large number. The rear cars of the first
section were the Ohio and Mississippi
sleeper and two chair cars, all fairly well
filed with passengers.
The work of rescue was Immediately be-
gun, and one by one the horribly mutilated
bodies OF the seven were removed from the
pile of wreckage. The passengers in the
forward cars. although they received a
severe shaking up and many were badly
cut and bruised. were foremost in the
work of caring for the injured
None of the trainmen are able to ac-
count for the wreck, as man was sent
back from the first section of the train as
soon as the stop, which was made neces-
sary by some defective machinery in the
locomotive, was made. This flagman has
not been seen since the wreck. and he is
probably the only man who can give the
real cause of the disaster. On the other
hand. it is said that the engineer of the
second train was asleep, and that the fire
man was throwing coal into the firebox.

of public interest to state that the law
partner of United States Senator
Faulkner from West Virginia, Stuart

Attorney General for West Virginia,

may not get the nomination, but the
fact that he is openly in the field
backed with all the influence of Mr..
Faulkner and implicitly with the
friendly assent of Faulkner's friend,
German, would seem to show that

A Successor to Justice Blatchford and
an Ambassador to Italy.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-The president
sent to the senate yesterday the following
nominations: William B. Hornblower, OF
New York, to be associate justice of the
supreme court of the United States, vice
Samuel Blatchford, deceased James J.
Van Allen, of Rhode Island, to be ambas-
sador extraordinary and plenipotentiary
to Italy
Mr. Hornblower is a prominent and
widely known New York lawyer, who has
for many years had very large practice
before the supreme court, of which he
will soon become a member. He comes of
a family of jurists, his father having been
the late chief justice of New Jersey, while
his grandfather was leading practitioner
at the bars of his day. Mr.. Hornblower is
only AZ years of age
Mr.. Van Allen succeeds Hon. William
Potter, who however, has remained min
lister only, never having been raised to the
higher honor of ambassadorship. The new
diplomat is the son of the late General
Van Allen, an old New Yorker, who made
large fortune through real estate trans
actions. He married the Oldest daughter
of William Astor. Five years after her
marriage Mrs. Van Allen died, leaving
three children. When General Van Allen
died, James j. Van Allen came into posses
sion of fortune estimated at a ,0O0, 600.
Mr.. Van Aliens present fortune is esti-
mated at sl2 100000 He is Al years old.
