the party shall be entitled to vote in
this primary. There shall be two
Judges at each polling place and one
clerk and in case of tie between
the Judges as to the right of a voter

Ex-ATTORNEY GENERAL r, A

THE GURERNATORlAL
OnA1TECT

Ex-Attorney General Rufus A
Ayers has written the following let
ter, withdrawing his name from the
Gubernatorial contest
BIG STONE GAP, VA, April 5, '93
r. T. Irvine, Esq,
President Ayers Democratic Club
Ny DEAR SIR:
am very anxious that the demo.
Gratis of Southwest Virginia should
so act as to secure that influence in
the councils of our party to which,
in my opinion, they are under pres
cnt conditions so justly entitled.
While | do not believe that the high
office of Governor should be sought
for, or filled from sectional considera-
tion purely, and while [ have in the
past experienced too much kindness
from the party at large in the State
to be willing to urge the section issue
unduly, | still think in the matter
of the Governorship the Southwest,
which is fast becoming materially
the hope of the State, and politically
the Gibraltar Of democracy, should
receive greater consideration at the
hands Of the party in the rest of the
State.
It is apparent that we cannot hope
to achieve this with several candi
dates in the field and divided delega-
tons. Oar section should unite up
on some one candidate, and personal
preferences should be made subordi-
nate TO that end, as well as to the
good of our loved State.
I have, therefore, carefully consid
cred the situation, and believing that
example is better than precept, have
determined in the interest of harmo-
NY, and with the view Of aiding the
party in this section to Mute upon
and give its undivided support to
sone one candidate. to request your
Club to withdraw my name from the
contest. and announce to the party
Throughout the State that ] am not
d candidate, and that my name will
not be presented to the convention.
In taking this step am not 'lil-s
mindful Of my obligations 70 your1

which I have received from my
friends in all portions Of the State;
and to them, and to the members Of

deepest and most profound gratitude.

His Long-suffering Wife Assisted to
Her Friends in New York.
"Johnson the shirtman," as he ad-
vertised himself, has been absent
from the country for some time.
He left by the brigantine W. q.
Irwin. There was a suit pending
against him for a brutal assault on
his wife with heavy cane, and she
had also entered suit for divorce.
By promises and oaths, such as those
whereby he had deceived her into
reconciliation in Oregon, johnson
here again managed to get his
wife to drop the prosecution of both
suits and agree to return to domes-
tic life with him. The poor wo-
mans friends told her she was a
fool, and events proved that she had
only put her trust anew in a scoun-
drel of the deepest dye. He left her
suddenly without provision for her.

trymen of the Hebrew race, how
ever, came nobly to her relief. They
subscribed enough money to pay
her way respectfully to her friends
in New York, with a margin of 500
to have in her pocket on arrival.
She left by late steamer.

Mile Morris on arrival this morning
brought 24O bugs rice, which were all trans
ferred to the Besse. She may probably re-
ceive 200 more bags Of rice from Hopper's
mill
The Star says: "When the Mariposa
sailed this morning the dredger saluted
did not respond" The salute was doubt
less for Mr. John Dyer, passenger on the
Mariposa. who as agent of the kisdon Iron
Works superintendent the contract for the
dredge machinery.
The fine clipper four-masted ship Gen.
eral Gordon arrived at sydney, N. s. W.,
from London in ballast after passage Of
So days. The vessel did some fast sailing,
the run from the Cape being done in 81
days, while the passage to the merid an of
the Cape was accomplished in " days.
From kerguelen the ship did 2l2l miles in
week. her best days run being 3i5 miles.
The bark Darra, now moored at the O. r.

Brewers wharf some time next week to
discharge 40O tons of coal. After that she
will take in ballast and sail for Port Town

STRICT REGULATIONS.
The Skipper of the Bark Darra has
to Leave His Supplies Under Seal.

The Skipper Of the Bark Darra has
to Leave His Supplies Under Seal.
Captain Peterson, OF the British
bark Darra, which arrived here on
Monday last from Newcastle, N. S.
w., with a cargo of Duckenfield
mines coal, brought with him several
cases Of liquor for the ships use.
AS is customary with merchantmen
an entry Of all ships stores must be
made on the manifest. Captain
Peterson entered the cases of liquor
on his papers, and when seen by
Port Surveyor Sanders the cases
were ordered taken out and placed
in bond in the Custom House. The
skipper was allowed liberal supply
of several bottles, and was requested
if the ship needed any more, to no.
tify the Collector of Customs, and
the liquor would be served out,
There we're also several barrels of
corned beef and cases of canned
stuff on board for the ships use.
These we're probed into with wire
tools by Customs officials, by order
of the Port Surveyor, and it is be-
lieved the stores are spoiled, the air
having got into them through the
holes made by the officials. The
red wax seal can be seen in the skip
per's cabin.
This is the first case when the
captain of a vessel arriving from
Newcastle-and there have been
many arrivals thence-has been sub
jected to such strict regulations
Notwithstanding this, however, the
skipper has his ''smile."

OIL
Leads The Way!
Report Of The Foreman Painter,

trict No. /, So. Pacific Co.
Dear Sir

Dear SIR
find that the oil requires much less pig
ment than insecd 10 make paint of the re-
qaisite covering aud spreading qualities. 100
lbs. of white lead will take no more than 4
to Az gals. of linseed, while in my printing
coat, / get even better results with y to ~
gallons of Lucol and in my second coat
lead. This means very material saving
(trom one-third TO one-half) in the amount
OF pigment necessary to cover given sur
face.
In my roof color used less than 100 lbs.
of "car paint princes Metallic ground i'll
oily where roof OF this size has always re-
CURED 200 lbs. of car paint with linseed oil.
| mixed my roof color with Is gallons of
Lucol to the 100 lbs. of pigment and got a
better body of color than ever got with
less than one-half that number Of gallons
Of linseed: give you simply the facts but
The drying qualities of the new oil are
perfect. The printing coat with white lead,
dried strong and hard inside of "a hours.
The first coat for sand took the sand freely,
firmly and in larger quantity than linseed
dried thoroughly without tack inside of "a
hours. 1t covered perfectly and dried with
fine smooth surface entirely free from
wrinkles and bisters, and bore out remark
ably we'll SO as to develop fine lustre, Civ
ing much better looking results than
have ever gotten with two coats Of linseed
on new wood. The car paint spread on the
roof was mixed with raw Lucol and dried
perfectly in "a hours. Notwithstanding
that only one-half the usual amount Of
color was used, the paint covered perfectly
and did not run. The second coat of sand
filled up soldly, taking up larger guam
tity of sand more evenly than have ever
gotten on to linseed.
The Lucol has effected saving of 2l5
lbs. of pigment or nearly>one-third of the
amount usually required for building of
this size.
With respect to the general appearance
OF the finished work, 1 must confess that l
never saw its equal in two coat work with
linseed, and if the oil wears as we'll at
Tancred as it has worn with the Master
Car Painter, Mr.. Fitch, at Sacramento,
there cnn be no question about the SUPE-
RIURITY of LucoL Orer tinseed, even at the
same price per gallon, IN ECONOMY, GOOD
! LOOKS and in DURABILITY.
Yours Respectfully,
