THE EIGHTH DIsrR1cr.-A lette

THE EIGHTH DIsTR1CT.-A letter
from Warrenton says:
San estimate made by democrats,
most conservative in their figures,
places Meredith's majorities by coun.
ties as follows: Fairfax, 300; Loudoun,
400; Prince William (Meredith's coun-
ty), 500; Fauquier, 700; Culpeper, (Mc-
Caull's county,, 100; Orange, 800, and
Alexandria city and county, $50, while
McCaull will carry Stafford by 300,
Louisa by 200, and King George by
$50" This estimate aggregates 1850
majority for Meredith; aud $50 for
McCaull, which would give the former
net majority over the latter of 1900
That will be enough, though we think
the estimates decidedly conservative.
A letter signed tucker" in the
Washington Republic of Saturday sa, S !:
while have no doubt of the re-elec-
ton of Mr.. Meredith in the Eighth Vir-
ginia district, I believe his will be q
narrow escape. Had the republicans
placed speakers of national reputation
in that district and been more ener-
getic in distributing campaign matter,
Pat McCaull would have been the next
member from the Eighth. AS it is he
is making good, square canvass and
will poll big vote. Meredith seems
to have pleased majority ofthe voters
in his district and they will see that he
is given another term. After that, old
Alexandria will take hand and insist
on having a Representative from that
city. There are several eligibles among
the young, progressive men. Postmaster
Carlin, who seems to be the coming
man, is an up-to-date young fellow.
There is no moss on him, and when the
old timers pass and the youngsters have
their innings, Mr.. Carlin will be found
at the head of the procession. By
his side, shoulder to shoulder,
State Representative Charlie Bend
helm will assist in pulling Alexandria
out of the mud and fog of bygone days.
There are others equally as fin de
sicle. Capt. Mushbach, Attorney Sam
Brent, Leonard Marbury, Lewis Bar
lev and long list of young men of the
same caliber. They are working quiet
ly at present, but something will drop
by the next presidential campaign, and
the old campaigners will feel dull,
sickening thud that will paralyze them.
One of the amusing phases of the pres.
ent campaign is the persistency of Sec
rotary Charles Marshall, who evokes
any amount of quiet laughter by the
energy he displays in working for the
re election of the man who so ruthless
ly turned down his brother who was
prominent candidate for postmaster of
Alexandra"

No WONDER the Catholics of New
York intend to vote for Senator Hill,
when such an acknowledged repre-
sentative of the republican party as Mr.
Morgan, who was commissioner of In
dian affairs, says the Catholic Bureau
of Indian Missions at Washington is
political lobbying machine" and that
"the archbishops of America are to-day
holding conclave in Philadelphia be.
hind closed doors, plotting against
American institutions. The Catholic
church is the mainstay OF Tammany
Hail. Catholics are but human.

TUESDAY EVENING OCT. 80, 1894.

So EAGER are the Northern protec-
tionists for the reenactment of the NC
Kinley bill, that, as a means to that
end, they even revert to the old bloody
shirt, and wave it again to infame the
people of their section against those OF
their fellow citizens who live in the
Southern States. But their eagerness
is SO intense that it handicaps the at
tainment of their object, as Northern
people give those of the South credit
for at least the possession of common
sense. For instance, the New York
Press, of yesterdays issue, one OF the
leading organs of the protectionists'
says:
1.-THE whole attitude of the South to-
ward Northern industries during the
recent session of Congress shows that
the Southern leaders were inspired by
a purpose to avenge upon the North
the losses brought upon the South by
the rebellion. With this aim in view
thew even induced Louisiaua's repre-
sentatives to strike ruinous blow al
their own State in order to ipjure the
North, and from first to last in the tariff
fight the revengful and sectional motive
of the dominant Southern element OF
the democracy was too obtrusive to be
overlooked by the most Indifferent OBJ
server"
Now if there be any thing a South
erner looks after now, no matter what
he may have done in the past, it is his
own material interest, and the man
who supposes he will subordinate that
to his political interest, is as ignorant
of his true feeling as of that of the man
in the moon. But as the average
Northern man is utterly ignorant o.
the condition of affairs in the South
and as many of them still nurse al
abiding hate for their Southern fellow
citizens, such statements as the ont
above quoted are not entirely without
effect, for such hate and Ignorance
combined, render them incapable O
using their reasoning faculties.

R. L. Watts, DR.. w. @. K. Randolph
Camm Patteson, Armstrong c. Gordon

tlemen can confirm or reject the report
of their committee in favor of appoint
ing a graduate of an obscure Northern

University, rather than one from the
section from which it derives its entire
support.

support.

In VIEW of the signal failures Of so
many of the newly built government
vessels, it is hardly probable that a
democratic Congress will appropriate
the thirty one million dollars asked
for by Secretary Herbert for the con-
struction of more of the same sort. But,
as the people must be taxed, some plaus-
ible means must be found for spending
the immense sum exacted of them,
and to squsnder it on worthless
ships is probably as good way as any
other.

WOMEN STRANGLED TO DEATH.-The in
mates of a disorderly house on Market street
Denver, Col, are in state of mind border
ing on panic in consequence of the belief that
they are in danger at the hands of a supposed
stranger. en- September 3rd Lena Taper
was found choked to death in her bed, and
the murder remains mystery, although
Richard Demady, with whom she lived, was
arrested, and is now under bonds, awaiting
action in his case Sunday Marie Cantassoit
was found dead in her bed, and appearances
indicated that she had been choked to death.
Richard Demady, Charles Schoter and John
Callahan have been arrested. Demady re-
Gently wrote Marie asking her to live with

house near yiroqua, Wis. 1t was sup
posed that she had committed suicide,
but yesterday Samuel S. Buxton,
who was arrested Saturday, at the in

MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL

New YORK. Oct 30.-11 a. m.-Therc
were two sides to the market this morning,
the result of efforts on the part of recent sell
ers of the coalers to reap profits. The firmpess
was short lived, however. The weakness in
the general list during the first half hour
was due to the frmness Of the sterling ex-
change and the revival af rumors of gold ex
ports by Saturdays steamers. Toward IL
o'clock on buying for both accounts prices
rallied I. to III per cent and at time named
the market was firmer in tone.

A Moral Busybody, by Allen Dale, has been
received from the Mascot Publishing Com
pany, New York. 1t is an interesting, reals.
tic and exceptionally well written story, that,
of itself alone is sufficient to prove that such
attempts as the recently abandoned one of
Rev. DR.. Parkhurst to exclude unfortunate
women from New York. can never succeed
while human nature remains as it is, and
logically tend to increase the evil for which,
from the commencement of the world
until the present, no remedy has been found.

THE PRESIDENT
SWill Probably Issue a Warning to
Coxey's Army.
The Warning Will Likely Be Given Out
as a General Statement Through tho
Press In tho shape OF an Inter-
view--Numerous Prccedents.

WASHINGTON, April %. -President
coming OF Coxey's com.nonweal army
and has sought advice on the subject
from members Of his cabinet and prom
inent congressman, and Sunday he had
a conference with the chief Of police.
The president has practically decided
to issue a sem!-ofiicial proclamation,
admonishing all persons who contcm-
plate visiting the national capital that
they must respect the laws and conduct
themselves in q peaceful and respectful
manner or suffer the consequences.
The executive warning will probably
be given out as a general statement
through the press associations under
the guise of an interview. The presi-
dent has been informed that there are
numerous presidents for such action.
During the buchanan administra-.
ton. when the know nothing party dis
banded, some OF the remnants
of that defunct polical organi-
zatioh determined to proceed to
Washington with the intention OF
forcing congress to adopt certain legis-
lation. President Buchanan issued a
declaration Of warning to them. and
subsequently ordered out the United
States marines and drove the peace
breakers ont Of the city.
On the occasion of the inauguration
of Hayes and Wheeler. President Grant
made statement through the news
papers advising people not to come to
Washington unless they could come in
q peaceful and orderly manner, and
thereupon ordered number of regular
troops to he temporarily stationed in
Washington for any emergency that
might arrise.
