THE LESSONS OF VIRGINIA's ELEC-
TION.

The lesson Of Tuesdays election in Viz
gina to Virginia Democrats is perfectly
plain In 1888 we yielded 10 the seductive
but delusive doctrine that. as it was far
simpler and far easier 10 carry our cleo
tions with money than by oldtine, honest
and earnest toll. we would hereafter
make money take the place OF that toll.
and continued adherence 10 that false
doctrine soon brought on as the conse-
quences that always flow from false doc
trines. knowledge OF this state OF facts
has dawned upon the people. and the
developments at the beginning OF the Let
Legislature informed all the people OF
the State OF It, Tuesdays election tn the
state was the remark that the people of
Virginia had to make upon this new
order OF things TO Virginians. and ii was
a remark uttered jn tone and with an
accent that ought to warn any man who
has sense enough 10 tie his own shoes.

all. when the Democratic candidates have.

DEATH OF DUMAS.
The Author of Camille" Passed
Awny Last Evening.

Alexandra Dumas passed away peacefully
at 7:45 o'clock last evening in Paris sur
rounded by his family. While his physi-
clans and friends had become convinced
that his case was hopeless and that death
was only a question of time it was not
expected that the end would come so soon
bulletin issued at o'clock stated that the
slight improvement in the condition of the
patient which was manifested Tuesday
was found to be maintained yesterday. Soon
after this NJ. Dumas fell asleep and woke
again at 7;30 o'clock. He feebly uttered
few words to those about his bedside and
then sank and died.
Dumas the younger, who was born in
1924, came naturally by his literary genius.
since his father was the creator of at least
100 novels.
Being a son of a poor seamstress, and not
being acknowledged by his father during
his younger years. the boy grew up sad and
taciturn, being shut out from the society Of
the children of the neighborhood.
The boys mother worked hard and sue
ceeded in sending him through college At
the age of seventeen he published a volume
of poems, his father having become pros
porous enough and proud enough Of his
promising offspring to bestow his name
upon him..
In 1913 he produced la Dame aux Came
las" dfamatized in English as Camille"
having been, 1t Is said, the hero of the story
himself. The book created a furore, no less
to the delight of the elder Dumas than to
the son. He soon dramatized the story and
its success was prodigious. 1t was set to
music also. as an opera, under the name of
'Traviata," the author becoming the idol of
the hour. His fortune was made, and from
that time until his death he lived like a
prince.
His next two stories, diane de Legs" and
la Dame au Perles." were disappointing.
He then turned his attention more particu-
larry to writing plays. lie Demi- Monde"
brt ught out in 1855. gave new evidence of
observation nd c,,fti wit
and the same is true of lie Fills Natural
and La Question d'Argent"
He has written dozen or more plays and
several novels since, his latest and most
successful dramas being Monsieur AL
phonse," Denise" "Francillon" and 1.-THE
Clemenceau Case"

Many Candidates Who Are known

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, November 2s.-
Interest in the next campaign centers not
so much in what the different political par
ties will do as in the manner in which the
leaves and fishes will be distributed among
the republicans. There is not enough left
Of the populsts in Michigan to wad gun,
and it is doubtful If even the motions of
holding a convention and nominating a
ticket are gone through with. The prohi-
bitionists are sadly torn by internal dissen-
sions, and the factions will not get together
in time or in any shape to make any effect
i've stand. The democracy is as complete
and AS picturesque ruin as will be found
in the country, with Don NJ. Dickinson mon
arch of all he surveys. and the only chance
Of any life or energy in the democratic cam
paiSn lie in the possibility that Mayor Pin
gree of Detroit, if defeated in the reput +
can convention. may lead a bolt which will
land him in the democratic camp and then
make him the democratic standard bearer.
Six months ago the free silver element liz
both and all parties were talking of running
an independent ticket should the idea be re-
pudiated by the old party organizations, but
with the subsistence in free silver popular
ity this kind of talk has steadily grown
less and is rapidly becoming more so. .
AS the situation stands today the repub-
licans own Michigan and all the good things
political in it. and with them it is merely
who shall have the spoils. There are al
even twenty candidates already in the field
for governor. and every few days a new
lightning rod is erected The most prom
inent of the candidates are Mayor Pingree
and DR.. NJ Ferry of Detroit, Harry Con-
ant of Monroe, James O'Donnell of Jackson,

land. d. d. Aitken of Flint, Ted. A. May

The real fight will be between Pingree
and Ferry. and it will be fight worth see
ing. Ferry will be backed by the machine
and Pingree will be his own hacker. Ferry
is at the head of big seed house, and his
name and fame is known to nearly every
farmer in Michigan and also every country
storekeeper and corner grocer. Pingree is
known in business way, and has the addi-
t.onal advantage of being known politically
Four times has he carried democratic De-
troit, each time by an increased majority,
and this will be urged in his favor. His SEN
timents toward corporations and monopolies
are well known, and from now on it will be
his business and aim to make them better
known.
