Governor of Virginia.
The Virginia democratic convention re-
assembled at Richmond yesterday after
noon at = clock.
Upon reassembling loud calls were made
for Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, and as he assembled
the stage he was greeted with tumultuous
applause He acknowledged the compli-
ment with a few neatly rounded remarks.
Gov. Mckinney was introduced. ard made
short and pithy speech, declaring that he
wanted the dollar that contained a dollars
worth Of silver.
Senator Daniel followed with praise for
Gov. McKinneys administration. In allud-
ing to the financial situation of the country
he asserted that the democracy OF the
country was in no wise responsible for 1t.
try to the Mckinley tariff bill. Mr. Daniel
affirmed the principles Of the, party as
enunciated at Chicago. and said that he
all. Concluding, he said: Il intend to keep
the pledge made to you, and II do not.

last night before O'Ferralfs strength in the
convention was made apparent. Senator j.
N. Stubbs of Gloucester made a motion to
postpone the nomination of candidates until
platform had been adopted. He was met
by such a perfect storm Of opposition that
he had to withdraw his motion. Judge
Rhea then nominated O'Ferralr in an ex-
cellent speech. AT the mention of his name
the convention went half wild.
When Mai. Charles s. Stringfellow OF
Petersburg presented the name of Col. A.

1t was after II o'clock when the roll Of
100 counties had been called, and O'Fer-
rails nomination for governor Of Virginia
announced to the convention. The hall

A Matter of Health

TT costs more to make Royal Baking Powder
L than any other, because its ingredients
are more highly refined and expensive! But
the Royal Is eorrespondingly purer and
higher in leavening strength, and of greater
money value to the consumer. The difference
in cost of Royal over the best of the others
does not equal the difference in leavening
strength, nor make good the inferior work
of the cheaper powders, nor remove the
impurities which such powders leave in
the food.
Where the finest food is required, the
Royal Baking Powder only can be used.
Where the question of health is considered,
no baking powder but Royal can be used
with safety. All others are shown by official
analyses to contain lime, ammonia or alum.

DEMOCRATIC FINANCTERING.

nEMOCRATIC FINANCIERlNG.
New York Press.
1t NAV interest the Administration to
know that Austria Hungary is congrat-
ulating itself upon the financial manage
ment of the United States Treasury
which enabled Austria to get god for
resumption without cost. The Roths-
child syndicate that undertook the con-
tract to furnish the gold for Austria's S
needs learned weeks ago that our gov
ernment would do nothing until fall to
protect our gold reserve, and acted upon
that knowledge. The result is that the
full amount of 100000,000 forms that
was needed was obtained. Gold bars
were obtained partly, it is true, from
London, Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam and
India, but more than half of the sum re-
quired was in American gold eagles,
which were taken to the extent of 49,
100000 half forms from our Treasury
and banks. Hence, at the time when
our credit was in question and the
natural drain was heavy, We kindly sup
piled more than half the entire stock OF
gold which Austria needed to resume
gold payments, and that, too, without
charging cent of premium.

THE business men of the nation have
taken the Democratic party at its word,
and in anticipation of the ful6llment of
the Chicago platform have refused to
embark in new enterprises, fearing to
put forth on the dangerous seas Of de-
based currency and free trade. The
shrinkage of hundreds of millions OF
dollars in the value of securities in which
the earnings of the people are invested,
the halt suddenly given to industrial en-
terprise, the scarcity of money, the dearth
of credit in the wealthiest nation in the
world; these are the logical and inevita-
BILE results of Democratic triumph with
its threat to reverse all the conditions
upon which the prosperity of the country
had been based. The country to-day is
feeling the effects of Democratic rule,
and no amount of Democratic lying can
obscure this fact.

THE FORCE is WORKING.

Pittsburgh Dispatch.
A day or two ago the Dispatch pointed
out that force greater than the railroad
combination is forcing recognition of
the fact that travel to the Worlds Fair
cannot be stimulated without material
concession in rates. 1t affords us great
pleasure to note that the force is still at
work.
1t is now being borne upon the Trunk
Line Association, which has been one of
the strongest factors in the policy of
squeezing the last cent out of the traffic,
that it has got to reduce rates, or go
without the business. The matter has
even further scope than that, for it is
beginning to be evident that if the COM
bination will not concede decent liber-
ality it will be hopelessly fractured by
the independent action of its members
in making their own rates.
The law of business is vindicating
itself even under the fetters Of COM
bination. The railroads will be wise to
recognize at once that the way in which
to secure large traffic to the Fair is to
offer reasonable cheap rates on fairly
fast trains with decent accommodations.
