DEMOCRATIC PROSPECTS IN Viz
GINA

The conference Of Democratic leaders
and workers on Friday night was very
satisfactory. Not that there were no re
ports Of enemies in the field-there are
enough of them but the fact was brought
ont that the great Democracy is NOV
ing in the might Of its everlasting prln-
cipIes OF justice. The people understand
that their hope OF equal laws. without
Republican favoritism or Populist folly,
depends on the Democratic party. The
charge that the Democratic party have
not done enough is most unjust. 40
reformation OF long existing and deep
seated wrong can be accomplished at
once, considering the narrow majority of
nominal Democrats I'm the Senate ami
the readiness Of the corrupt projections
fists to spend money without stint to Sc
cure the privilege of robbing the peo-
pie; st is most encouraging that so
much has been accomplished.
The Sugar Trust has burnt in an in
delble stain OF intamy across the brows
Of some senators. but the Democratic
party can no more be charged with
lack OF sincerity ana energy i'm its
high purpose to restore and defend the
rights of the people because OF the
treachery Of those few who sold out t.
the Sugar Trust. than could the Father
OF his country have been charged with
want OF fidelity TO American freedom
and Independence because he had in his
ranks a Benedict Arnold. We deplore the
present position of the majority OF the
members OF the Democratic party In this
state on silver, but we have an abiding
faith in the ultimate rectiication Of That
position. and when We contemplate the
horrible results OF Republican corruption
and extravaganza we know there are
worse things than free silver, bad as
that would be- 1t is the deprivation OF
the State banks OF the right TO issue
their own notes that is at the Bottom o,
the clanor for free silver. Before that
right was taken away by Republican
administration we heard no cry for more
silver. although there was not one-tenth
as much coined and in use then in this
country as there is now.
The Democratic National Convention
recommended the repeal OF that law-and
4, should be repealed. With work that
,s worthy OF the cause we will have n
stronger. truer and more invinciple
democracy in Virginia this year than We
have ever had.
Let us so to work.

WALL STREET WAS WAITING
Doubt About the Presidents Action
Made the Market Uncertain.
INDUSTRIALS LOST ACTIVITY
London Wants to Buy, but She Wants to Buy
Cheaper than the Present Range-Closing
Was Dull and Irregular, with Slight
Rally from the Lowest Prices.

NEW YORK. March 29.-The opening Of to-
days market was slightly irregular. but in
the main strong. London was trading at ad-
vances ranging from Is to Z per cent, and
mad liberal supply OF orders on this side,
both for stocks and bonds. The bulk of
these orders were limited to prices n shade
under our market. and consequently con-
tributed u little to the local speculation. The
feeling abroad is so decidedly in favor of a
boom in stock values that foreign houses in-
cline to the belief that the impatience of Lon
don spectators will result in bull campaign
engineered from that side. Traders were in
clined TO work for reaction during the first
half of tho session, and were assisted in their
efforts by liberal supply Of floating stock
pressing for sale.
The veto message, while practically assured
for several days past, was unsatisfactory, be-
cause the particular bill and not the principle
involved was the subject of the Presidents
disapproval 1t had been hoped that the ad-
ministration would so effecrually condemn all
attempts to initiate the national currency that
the silver element in both houses would see
the hopelessness of future projects Of this
character. AS it is, however, there can be
little doubt that a modified bill covering the
same subject will be introduced in Congress,
and probably. under increased pressure meet
with better success than its predecessor.
There is also some apprehension felt at the
[ possibility Of a free-coinage clause being
hgrafted into the tariff bill. tbs fate of which
would be extremely doubtful. Should the
tariff bill be vetoed, as the only means of
thwarting the silver provision, party pledges
would be broken and political Incompatible
ity ensue. This, from a purely political
standpoint. would not be wise step, but
stocks would Immediately attest the value OF
such action by liberal additions TO prevailing
quotations The industrials would profit most
by this latter action, and it is estimated that
the silver people can do them no greater
favor than by insisting on the carrying out OF
this project.
The market rallied slightly from the lowest
prices Of the day and closed dull aud irregu-
lar.

irving over dozen physicians Of his own town,

Senate Finally Disposcs of an Ancient and

Yesterday the McGarrahan bill was taken
up in the Senate. and Senator Villas, of
Wisconsin. spoke in opposition to the meas
ure. although he sympathized with "the un-
obtrusive. gentle, and kindly old man who is
interested in it.
At the close Of Mr.. Villas speech Senator
George offered an amendment providing that
the United States should not be held to ac-
count for the land or mineral substances
mentioned in the bill.
Mr.. Teller, of Colorado, spoke in favor of
the bill. He reheared briefly the history of
the now celebrated case-that the courts had
acted favorably on 1e claim in 1857, that
ever since it has BE- Jeiore Congress in one
form or another and that it had passed the
House of Representatives four times and the
Senate twice.
The amendment offered by Senator George,
declaring that the government should not be
held accountable for any land or mineral
substances '.to remove the shadow of shade
of doubt of the liability of the government,
as Mr.. George explained was agreed to-.
No other amendment being agreed to, the
bill was put on its final passage, and it was
passed without division.
