We have asked the Dispatch this ques-

from II. We now put It to the State and
to the Danville Register also.
It's all very well for the state TO say
that II does not acknowledge the negro as
q political equal. But we reply 10 the
State that the fundamental law OF the
land has made him So and we want the
State TO speak out in unmistakable terms

vent the negro from exercising political
rights upon terms OF equality with itself.

THE SLATE AND THE TIMES.

Turn and twist the matter under dis
cussion between the Times and the State
as We may, but 1t comes back always to
this hard and impalatable fact that the
negro is citizen and voter by reason of
the Constitution of our government.
Whether we would wipe this hard fact
ort or whether we would not. il exists.
and 1t is beyond our power to cause il
to cease existing.
Very well What are we going TO do
about It? We have heard these and only
these methods proposed. The first is that
We shall obey the fundamental law of
the land and allow the negro TO vote and
10 count his vote as he casts it, The Sec
ond is that we shall allow him 10 20
through the form of voting and then pur-
loin his ballot from the box and pnt an
other In its place that was not cast by any
voter. The third is that we shall onen,v
defy the constitutional law and refuse 20
allow him to vote at ALL II we are right
IN supposing that these three comprise all
the methods available to us, which one
Of the three win the State takef

circumstances. give its consent or appro-
val to the second. We are not prepared
to say that any condition of the case
could make us give our assent to the
third. but We are prepared to say that
as matters now stand we insist upon the
first.
we see no justification in the present
state Of the case for revolution and vio-
lence dhe only extraordinary measure
that we could tolerate), and we see no
reason. therefore, why we should not obey
the law Of the land. as all good citizens
should do. and allow the negro to cast his
vote and have Il counted When this is
done openly. fairly. and frankly. the best
possible security is obtained against the
negro dominating the State or any part
OF IT, The true safety OF every people
and OF their liberties is the good old
Democratic principle of local self-govern-
ment. When the neighborhood is left 10
control its own affairs. without fraud and
without fear. the robust. moral clements
OF that neighborho l win certainly DOM

neighborhood that fraud and cheating

brave men and the strong men are go

sipiiity OF negro domination there ends
There may be. an occasional negro officer
elected. but the neghborhood will find
means OF controlling matters sooner or

We have only to be open and honest
and to hold tenaciously to the Democrat

The leaders OF fashion are troubled

three successive parties, for there is no
gown which dates" like an evening gown.
Gowns too, are as sensitive apou' - -.
age as their wearers, and the more strlh-
ing and original they are, the greater Is
the danger of detection. But one might
as well wear the old gown as announcer
one lust like il. and hence we must nave
some now devices.
The French are trying the effect OF
waist in different materials from the SKIRT.
This is the revival of an old fashlon. Inc

of velvet. draped with silk gauze or some
other filmy material
Plain. solid colors are not used mucn
except I'm combination with others, and
changeable silks and velvets are prefera-
bic to plain col0rs, even for combinations.
Brocades and figured goods arc the proper
thing for evening gowns, and whoever
has any straight pinks or blues or reds
must lay them aside until fashions de-
voices grow tired of mixed colors.
A pretty, somewhat diaphanous gown is
shown in the above cut. 1t has the low
sleeves to an exaggerated degree. me
sleeves in our old gowns are tight around

covered below. but this year they have
slipped down to show the pretty curve
OF the shoulder. and are only held by
a strap Of some kind. In this case the
strap is a bit Of the velvet ruche which
trimmed the skirt. This gown is made OF
a pale green silk, with a dahlia-red figure
I'm MORE texture. A slight puff Of silk
is draped across the bust, and caught in
front with a dahlia-like velvet chou.
The eauzy drapery on the arm is caught
with similar chou. The bodice is slight
" pointed at the waist and quite short,
In accordance with the French preference
for round waists.

nawned it for S. The case was put In the

The State does the Times an injustice
when 1t imputes to us a want of frank
ness in treating the case it made We mis-
understood the State but we treated the
case as we understood it TO make IT.
The Times cannot, however. accept the
States present test as the true test of
Democracy. seeing that there Is no party
In this State Of which the platform or
declaration of principles is that Virginia
shall be ruled by the whites If we thought
there was the slightest risk OF Virginia
being ruled by the negroes the. Times
would be amongst the foremost in making
it impossible. either by the most siren
uous. but fair. measures within the law,
or by an open defiance of the law, but
never by the underhand methods Of the
ballot-box suffer. But there is no danger
of anything OF the sort so that the Times
holds on tenaciously 10 its own definition
of Democracy for Virginia as elsewhere to
wit: That the laws shall confer privileges
upon none and impose disabilities on none.
