WHAT MIR. p. FERRY SAYS.
A Well Known and Esteemed Towns
man Rises to Reply.
New HAVEN, June 81, 1894,

NEW nAVEN, JuuS o., 1oS4.
Tothe Edftorof the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
Having known and read your valuable
paper for many years and being well
known by you, the Methodist people and
all citizens of this city for thirty -four
years and believing you would not publish
anything unless you supposed the state
ments made in you or your reporters
presence were correct, I think the state
aents made at the rink and reported in
your paper this morning in regard to the
collation. furnished the Methodists at
the rink yesterday need some cor
rection. In the first place It is reported
that Mr.. Morse stated that the committee
made fair and square contract with
caterer to furnish an abundance for 500
persons We beg leave to differ with Mr..
and that he failed to live up to his contract;
that also 10 not true; third, and he refused
to supply any more food; that is not true
only in part.
Firstly, minister's phrase, an abund-
snce, means all 500 persons could eat,
which We did not agree to; secondly, We
furnished all We agreed to; and, thirdly,
I did refuse to furnish any more unless
they would pay for 1t, which they would
not 90; consequently did not furnish any
more, and I think every person that saw
the tables and food would say there was an
abundance for the price, which was the
small pittanoe-an they would pay-of
twenty cents for each person.
Now, as understand the matter, each
Methodist church was assessed q certain
sum to defrsy expenses; then collection
was taken at every meeting Tor nearly coy
to psy expenses; then the tickets to the
collation. were so cents each, while they
were to pay only 20 cents per head for the
food and q man to direct the walters in
setting the tables. IF more facts are need
ed they can be given.
The amount Furnished for only 30 cents,
we freely giving 1t at cost, making not q
cent, was % bowls, holding five or six
quarts each, Of chicken salad, 20 bowls,
three quarts each, of potato salad, 500
sandwiches, 500 plates Of Ice cream, cake
for 500, coffee for 500, besides sliced tur-
key and sliced ham, some for all, and all
this for 30 cents.
Yours very respectfully,
p. FERRY.

Hon. Charles T. O'Ferrall was inaugu-
rated Governor Of Virginia at Richmond
yesterday with more pomp than has for
years attended the induction Of a new
executive In that State. There was a fine
military display. and there were many
thousands N people in Capitol Square to
witness the administration Of the oath and
hear Governor O'FerralPs inaugural ad-
dress. This address is characteristic OF
the man. being direct and ~outspoken on
the subjects treated. lie declared his pur-
pose 10 see that the laws are enforced I'm
all respects and that good order prevails
throughout the limits Of the State. The
Governor is a firm man and means what
he says. He also promises 10 protect the
oyster beds and fisheries OF Virginia from
the incursion Of citizens Of other States.
and is sure the Governor OF Maryland
will cooperate i'm the effort to preserve
them for Virginians, and Governor O'Fer-
rail- says he will surely cooperate with
him In preserving the waters OF his State
for Ma~rylanders." Governor OFer-aiI
also treats on the importance OF immi-
grafton. and speaks a good word for the
disabled Confederate yeterans.-Baltimore

ECONOMICAL LEGISLATORS.

We recently heard a "Boniface' com
planning that the Legislature brought
very little money to Richmond, and that
after the first flush of the assembling Of
the body and the incidental attendance
OF office-seekers, the members scattered
off where they could get the cheapest
board and spent as little as possible.
We commended this spirit in our law
makers-as extravaganza is the bane Of
A~mericans-and the great lesson our peo-
economy; but we had not then seen the
following, which we take from the At
lanta Constitution, and which we insert
with the most cordial appreciation Of the
sentiments Of the great of
Georgia:
h disposition to cwriticise some mem
bers of the Legislature for "bunking
together in cheap tenements has existed
always. 1t was never more nttingly re-
buked than by the late Alexander ii.
Stephens. He was surrounded by a num-
Der OF callers, one of whom was telling
him about three members Of the Legs
lature OF 1889 who We're living in a room
for which they paid 81 u week etwee
them.
Gentlemen said AIR. Stephens in his
piping voice, chose are not the men who
sell their votes. When o want TO find
~purchasable men. look for the high livers
In the hotels. The member who saves his
none and lives TO himself is not for
sale. His frugal. honest ways are the
best proofs of his integrity"

AT a meeting OF the Democrats Of
Gloucester county. held at the Court
House January !, 1894, II. G. Bland was
called to the chair, n Captain II. NJ.
Page appointed secretary. TIL following
resolutions, offered by Captain r.. VI.
Page. were adopted with only one dis
senting vote, TO wit:
Whereas, in the Democratic caucus,
for the election of a United States Sem
ator, the Hon. j. n. Stubs, in our opin-
ion voted against the wishes Of his con-
stituents. we take this our first opportun-
ity in public meeting assembled 10 express
our disapprobation, as embodied in the
following resolutions:
Resolved 1st. That we feel keenly our
disappointment at the defeat Of that
chivalrous Nirginian. and loyal statesman
and soldier, %Fitzhugh Lee.
Resolved 20. That in his vote Major
Stubs did so in utter disregard of the de-
clared will and clearly defined sentiments
of his constituents. thereby giving a most
fatal blow to the principle Of represen-
tation that the will of the people is
sovereign.
Resolved Sd. That the reasons given in
his reply TO DR.. Foster, that he would not
vote for any man opposed TO free coinage
of silver, and not in accord with the Hon.
]. w. Daniel. and w. a. Jones, is an un-
satisfactory species Of special pleading.
Resolved 4th. That we hereby approve
the vote of our representative, Hon. ]. n.
Tabb, and his Straightforward and manly
course.
Resolved 9Th. That the above resolu-
lions be published In the Richmond pa
pers. and the West Point Nirginian.

William II Petit for Court OF Appeals.

Editor Times: The qualifications OF VIII
nam Il. Petit, Esq, Of the county OF
~fluvanna, for a seat on the bench OF
the Supreme Court Of Appeals, for which
he is a candidate, are unsurpassed by
those Of any other law, er in Virginia.
and are well known to botn bench and
bar. His worth and rank have received
marked recognition from both the present
and the old Court OF Appeals. and is
evidenced by reported cases which he
argued before them. Among them IS the
celebrated case OF Moon. etc, VS.. stone,
etc, reported in 18th Grattan. where the
'rief OF Mr.. Petit was directed to be
Incorporated with the report Of the case.
by reason Of its remarkable display OF
learning and ability. The late John H..
Guy, who was in the foremost rank OF
the profession In Virginia, used the fol-
lowing language with regard 10 Mr. Pet
tits fitness for a judicial position:
Il think j have in view all the qualtii-
cations which that high Office calls for
when ! say that Mr.. Petit lacks none
of them. Those that come under the head
Of character, those that come under the
head Of attachments. both in the law and
I'm that general knowledge which Is essen
tial to its application, those that contri-
butte 10 make efficient industry. and those
that must unite and harmonic In the
formation Of sound judgment, all COM
bin In him I'm a very unusual degree.
And I speak with thorough conviction. and
certainly with ample opportunity Of knowl-
edge, when l say that ] can hardly en-
ploy too strong terms in recommending
him for the place"
The late Judge Shelley said Of him:
an all moral qualities and habits no one
could be better qualified than Mr.. Petit
for the duties Of a judge. In learning,
mental discipline. and capacity 10 follow
legal principles through the most tangled
and intricate mazes to safe and just con-
illusions. / have rarely met Mr.. Pettit's
equal"
The Hon. T.. c. Burks. OF the old Court
Of Appeals. says Of Mr.. Petit; II
would be an ornament to our highest
court" And the Hon. T. 7. Fauntleroy
said Of him to-day: "Mr. Petit is the
man. above all others, that I woul'l Sc
lect for a seat on the bench of the Su-
y -~e court Of Appeals"
Such is the estimation in which VIII
liam b.. Petit is held by the ablest. the
best, and the purest men who know
him. In the Language used by Hon. W. $.
Barton. in speaking of him: 1T would
be well for the State II she could have

tons" JUDEX.

bearing hardly upon others. Anoth-
or thing which should be earnest
iy considered in hat caucus Ia
whether a Democratic Congress can
impose an income tax upon those
Incomes derived from investments in the
securities OF corporations and exempt all
other incomes. This is as un-Democratic
as the Wilson bill. 1t Is entirely consist
cnt with Democracy TO impose an income
tax on all incomes, ~exempting the very
small ones only. though 1t Is an odious
tax that should neven be imposed IL 1t can
be avoided But Il is totally UNI
Democratic to tax the incomes OF only a
certain portion OF the people. This Is
class-legislation and, therefore, the most
unjust legislation. 1t cannot even IND
the poor and unfair support claimed for
IL. Its advocates say that the very rich
people have their investments in these
securities and hat the tax would, there
fore, fall upon the very rich. But MOTH
ing could be further from the fact. The
securities Of corporations are the savings
banks OF the people with small means
all the widows and orphans and persons
moderately weil-on have their little
savings in these securities. Such a tax
would violate every principle Of Democra-
ey and would also bear most harshly on
that great body of the people least able

A coSsTITUTIoNAL .ONvESTION.

The Dispatch quotes the Lynchburg
Advance as joining with II the Danvilie
Register and the Norfolk Landmark in
calling for a constitutional convention.
II the Dispatch or any other of the
papers named will show us good reasons
why there should be a constitutional con-
~vention. we are perfectly willing to see
one. But what reasons have yet been
advanced why we should have one?
We have heard none at all so far. The
nearest approach 10 a reason is what
the Dispatch advances, that we shall
deal with the suffrage in the way suS-
gested to us by the past twenty-five
years of our experience. But this is en-
tirely too vague to constitute any basis
Of action. We do not see anything sug-
gested TO us by our experience Of the
past twenty-five years with the suffrage
that would not form as good a basis of
action by the Legislature as by a con-
vention. The experience OF the first nf-
teen or eighteen years of that period sug-
gested TO us that If we kept our elections
under the control OF the courts we
would have fair elections, in which the
votes Of all men would be counted as
cast. The experience OF the last six or
eight years Of that twenty-five suggests
TO us that IL we put our elections under
the control of partisan boards tier will
be cheating in the negro counties and the
elections In those counties will be nothing
but what the managers Of the ma
chimes determine that they shall be.
But these are suggestions that the Leg
~islatufe is as capable Of dealing with as
a constitutional convention. All that is
necessary in the premises is for the
Legislature TO take hold of the subject
with an earnest determination to COM
pei fair elections in the negro counties,
and such elections will easily be secured.
A few stringent amendments t. the
present laws. and restoring control of
the elections to the courts will mend
the whole trouble.
We have not yet heard any reasons,
therefore, which we can think adequate
for the assembling of a constitutional
convention, and We shall consequently
wait until the Dispatch puts that sug-
gestion Of the past tw enty-fve years into
"A concrete form. We may think that
sufficient reason when we see it def
nitely stated. but for the present We
must pass"

Dec. &c, 1893.
Editor Times: Your recent articles upon
the subject Of elections, the investigating
committee. &c, nave been read and re-
read, discussed and talked over, by most
Of the intelligent people Of this section.
and your paper in all respects approved
and applauded. The light your paper has
given US is worth many times It's sub
scription price. Every reader is now. in
some degree. an agent for its circulation.
We needed at Richmond a bold. indie
pendent paper. not fearing 10 speak the
truth. even If Mr.. Cleveland dor whom 1
voted is a party, contributing his twenty
nfty-dollar bills. to a cOrrupting fund.
Why did he not give TO the poor OF the
city or Washington. as he has destroyed
silver? Mr.. Martin. at whom the investi-
cation was aimed, is the only person, so
far as the testimony shows II the re-
port Of the committee speaks. that has
been benefited by the investigation. He
surely has been. No charge has been in
the least degree sustained against him.
Whilst II Is manifest that during the last
campaign much fraud and bribery was
practiced. yet Mr.. Martin has the honesty
and good sense TO keep himself out OF il.
AS to General Hunton. no one even sug-
gested that he had any hand i'm it, either
directly or indirectly. Some OF the parties
10 this investigation matter are in a most
unfortunate condition. They admit they
asked for money; received the money;
that II was corruptly used. but by whom
and how. for the life of them they are
unable TO conjecture. Some say il was a
cleaner campaign than any other We
have had for years in this State. II so,
may God forgive them-the people cannot.
] hope this latter allegation is erroneous:
If not, does that justify the recent fraud
and corruption?

earnestly begging them to endeavor TO
secure them a seat on the bench at pres
ent pay. Tit pay at present, considering
the low price OF property and the fruits
OF the earth. Is now about double what IL
ever was before. Governor Mckinney said
able lawyers would not accept a judicial
honor at present pay. Out OF the hun
dreds or able lawyers in Virginia. he
cannot name five who would not. He is
as much mistaken In this matter as he
was as to the number Of votes he could
