VIRGINIA TROOPS.

Editor St0unton Vandacator:
In his account of the battle of Piedmont

Virgnians brought from the Tennessee De-
partment and were composed of the 45th Va.
regt.; the 45th Va. battalion; the Goth Va,
and believe, the Seth Va. They were the
troops that fought Gen. Crook at Cloyd S
Mountain on May 9th, 1864. where their loss
es were heavy, so that it was only the rem
nant of each organization that reached the
Valley with Gen. Jones. Col. Brown, who
was killedat Piedmont, was Colonel of the 45th
Va, was good officer and was liked by all
his men. He was raised in TaZewell county,
where four companies of the 45th were made
up. We were in winter quarters at King
salt works till just before the battle OF
Cloyds Mountain, and after that battle we
camped at New River bridge until we were
ordered to the Shenandoah Valley where we
suffered heavy loss at the engagement at
Piedmont.

THE DEMOCRATIC COUNTY COMMIT.
TEES OF THE DFS7,pYfn1,

The influence of a county committee
cannot be over estimated in politics. Yo.
may have eloquent speakers, barbecues
school house meetings, and all the rest, but
ii that silent worker, the county commit
tee, is not alive the real work is not done. Il
the 10th district, which is our home fight
tile county committee of each county
should begin its work mo;s, and the first
step should be to summon the precincT
committeeman to q conference with it,
and this should be followed by two OF three
conferences before the election. This has
been the method in Augusta and has beer
found to work well. and we commend it to
the other counties Of the district. If thet
viii adopt it they viii find it to their adyall-
tage to put it in operation saOW; for they
should remember that there are only about
six weeks before the election is held, and in 8
political campaign extending over wide
territory that time is hardly enough to sci
the party machinery going thoroughly.

The New Election Law.

AS the time approaches for the first elec-
ton under the Walton Australian ballot
law, it would be well for our people to ia
miliarize themselves with its provisions.
We have already printed the bill in full and
now we give a synopsis of it which the
reader will do we'll to preserve:
The LIST, I'd, Sd and 4th sections provide
for the registration OF the candidate S names
and state the kind of ballot to be used.
Section places the duty of having the
ballots printed on the electoral board, and
specifies that there shall be twice as many
as the number Of voters.
Section provides for an oath to be taken
by the printer that he will keep secret the
size, Sc, Of the ballots, and DESTROY all
above the number required. A member of
the board is to be present when the ballots
are printed and counted, and receive 81 as
his pay. The members of the board are
also pledged to secrecy. and any violation
OF the section shall be punished by line Of
$500 and one month in Jail.
Sections and s provide for the distribu-
ton Of the ballots to various precincts and
voting places, requiring that all ballots re-
manning unused shall be destroyed before the
ballot box is opened and the vote counted.
Same punishment as section for violation.
Section 8 provides for booths.
Section 10 provides that only the voter
and parties specified shall be within forty
feet of The booth; that the judges of cleo
ton shall decide any dispute, except in case
of a challenged vote, when all parties go
before the judges.
Section IL. The voter is provided with
a ballot and is to scratch all except the can
didate he wishes to vote for, and it is re-
Quired that the pencil or pen mark go
through three-fourths of tile name of the
scratched. If more than one candidate for
an Office remain unseratched the ballot shall
be void, unless other officers are properly
voted for, then that much of the ticket is
valid.
Section II provides that the ballot shall
not be taken further than the booth, and
that no person Shall advise OF assist the
voter in any way in preparing his ballot.
Section II limits voters time to two and
a half minutes.
Section IA provides for an exchange of
ballots when the voter has defaced the first.
The appointment and duties of the spec
ial constable are given in section Is as fol-
lows:
1.-THE electoral board of each county OF
city shall appoint for each voting precinct
therein one constable, who shall be an
honest and discreet person of said precinct;

AN OB,JECT LESSON.

The sugar planting industry OF Louisi-
ana has been a pensioner on the bounty Of
the country under all political parties. The
whole country has been taxed in order that
a ''home industry" which produces very
small fraction of the sugar used in it may
thrive. In the Mckinley bill they found a
still softer place-the Republicans simply
took 81, 000,000 out of the U. S. Treasury
and paid it to the planters as bounty.
This was done in lieu of tariff on the i'm
portation Of raw sugar. This was lovely.
how lovely, a grower of wheat Oh corn iii
Virginia may realize if he will imagine his
simply reporting to the government the
amount Of his crop, aud receiving from the
u. S. Treasury so much hard cash pei
bushel fol- merely raising it; and after get
ting his cash for raising it, selling it to the
nearest miller. The Democratic congress
broke this up, stopped the bounty, and
went back to protecting the Louisiana
sugar planter by a tariff. But the sugar
planter had, naturally, been spoiled by his
bounty and we see that a convention of
three hundred Of them has been held in New
Orleans and declared i'll favor, so the tele
gram reports, Of '';ln alliance with the Re
publican party
What more could you expect from the
bounty system? Once familiarize men
with having the public money given them,
and they are for any party that will keep
the practice up. They 'aor have 40 per
cent. protection under the new tariff bill,
but the bounty has SO spoiled them that
they want the unearned money shovelled
out OF the Treasury directly into their
pockets. It is decentralization that grows
out of the Ubiquitous system of giving mel,
money out Of the earnings Of the people
whether the gift is made through protec-
tive tariff OF bounty.

have bought rot only 8 general assortment i,

friends and will add to my trade, l have by buy

the farmers who kindly call on me before buying

worth something to my customers well as to
myself, and in making selections, their interests

My stock, as heretofore, will consist of the best
goods made in fine mechanical condition, and
will be full. early nd late, and farmers can get
anything they want at any time in season.
AS profits will be short. must make the cost
of handling Just small as possible, and will
therefore not be able to sell through agents. OF
to send out any one to canvass, and all such I'M
necessary expense will be saved by farmers who

get their goods at low cash price, with interest

TILE BETTER PLAN.

The meeting Of merchants and other bus.
mess men at Memphis, Tenn, has sub
scribed 81 900 for the families of six de-
fenseless negroes who were murdered by d
mob near MiiIington i'll that State If each
of the States OF the Union would pass d
law requiring any city Oh county in which
a man, white OF black: WAS lyneaed, to pay
$4,000 to his family OF heirs, We would see
less lynching and more lyncllers Oh the gal
lows OF in the panitsntiary. The tax pay
ers Of the county would socE come to re-
gard a lyncher as a public enemy, ana hunt
him out as they would any other criminal.
The ADVANCE Of 2 cents pound Oh sugar
will give our Republican contemporaries an
excellent opportunity to prove their theory
that the foreign producer pays the tax.

O'FERRALL AND MASSEY IN THE
FIELD

We see some objection made to the Gov
ernor and Superintendent of Education of
the State taking the stump this fall. For
our part we hope every State officer who
can speak effectively will be found on the
stump, and those who cannot speak will put
in hard work. The man that goes around
the country kicking up dust at every
cross roads until he is elected and then
draws into his shell, is not the man we want
to see get any prominence in Virginia. Ii
Gov. O'Ferrall and MI. Massey could find
it convenient to drop into Augusta in Octo-
they and all OF us have at heart. we should
be very much obliged to them. They are
two Of the best campaigners in the State
and we hope they will make regular tour
of it. AS for ''neglecting their business, :"
we hardly think the Governor is likely to
do it, and the keeli old palson who has been
holding State offices fer many years has
not done it yet, 50 we think we CAIN trus'
them.
After the people have met and decided
who they want to represent them, We think
it is the duty OF every Democrat in the
State. in OF out OF Office, to help elect them.
1t is when men in Office, Federal OF State,
interfere with the primaries of the people,
that the INDICATOR thinks it is a wrong
that cannot lie excused. The people should
have free expression of their will uninflu-
enced by Office holders OF their henchmen,
and after they have said what they want
done then everybody should help to do it.
Bye the-bye, Brother Whitehead, Com
missioner OF Agriculture, proved a good
stumper around here last November. He
Las also, we see, been added to the list of
State officers WHO will canvass. He will
open in the 9Th district on the oath inst.
