Shall There he Fusion in Virginia.

The New York Sun declares that Do
iitical partnerships with Populists has
been an Improbable thing for the De-
mocracy, and predicts that from the
hour Of its abandonment will date a
Gevival Of Democratic prospects. Our
New York contemporary Is a bitter enc
my to the income tax and to the free
coinage OF silver, and no doubt intended
by the remark above quoted To warn
che Democrats as party that they
would run the risk OF defeat II they
deserted New England and the Middle
States on those questions. and allied
themselves with the Democrats Of the
South. the West. and the Rocky Noun
tain and Pacific States. majority OF
whose voters are in favor OF providing
by law for the free coinage Of silver,
Ind also for the perpetuation Of the In
Doine tax. To these two Questions-free
silver and the income tax-the Sun has
nevoted q large portion Of its space for
tome time past.
The Sun says that In the presidential
biection Of 1883 the Democrats Of Kan
pas cast 1900 votes for their candidate
for Governor and 10000 for the Demo-
cratic nominee for President That was
before the agitation Of the Farmers
Alliance or Of the silverites. But on
both these questions the Democrats OF
that State afterwards identified them
ysavss, the result being that In 1894 the
Democratic vote in Kansas had fallen
60 1900.
Figures teaching the same lesson are
puoted from Nebraska. Oregon. Mime
sofa. Illinois. and other States.
We give these figures a. warning to
che true Democrats OF Virginia that
they cannot desert their party and cast
In their fortunes with the Popnlists or
any other party which antagonists the
principles Of the JeRersonian Democ- |
rscy. The Democrat who shall desert

How to Insure White Supremacy.

How to Insure White Supremacy.
South Carolina abounds just now In
schemes to provide in a new constitu-
ton for the supremacy OF the white race.
Coupon tickets are recommended by some
people. and other new things by other
people. Here is perhaps the best Of The
| schemes. II 1t were. as We think 1t Is
not. consistent with tho latest amend
| ments to the Federal Constitution. The
Greenville News states 1t as follows:
Our idea is to have In the new con-
stitution a section about thus: This con-
stitution shall be in effect from January
!, 1896: Provided. that at an election TO
be held November s. 1895. at which every
every male citizen Of the State above
the age Of q years and not disqualified
for Infamous crime may vote. sixty-hve
thousand votes are cast. New Constitu-
ton, yes.
The Charleston News and Courier de-
scribes the same proposition as follows:
The real idea, 1t Is seen. Is TO submit
the question Of ratification to all the
voters In the State. and the constitu-
ton Is to so into effect II 65.000 voters
vote In favor Of IL, which Is a very DIFF
fcrent idea from the one first expressed +"
That Is. even II there should be 1000
votes cast against ratification. We con-
fess that "the idea" is not clear to U.S.
But the News proceeds:
There Is no difficulty In understanding
now just what Is proposed. 1t Is that the
convention shall frame a constitution
which Is 10 become effective II $1,000 white
voters vote for it-'resardless OF the
action of the colored voters" That Is
to say. again. II $500 white voters vote
for It. and 5000 Of the 10000 colored
voters, or 5000 colored voters and 1900
white voters vote against II. making an
adverse majority of 1900 or 10000. 1t Is
to become effective despite such adverse
vote"

A Jurymnn Speaks.

Mr. J. s. Hopkins. one Of the Jury who
to the Charlottesville Progress, In answer
TO newspaper criticisms of the verd t.
stating that the fact that Colonel Par
sons was a northern man was not con-
sldersd by them, and that they never
knew until after the trial was over
that the deceased had been in the Union
army or that he was Republican in
politics. Mr.. Hopkins also denies that the
jury were influenced by Outside senti-
ment"; they did not know what that
sentiment was, land cared less" IF
Mr.. Parsons had been a descendant Of
Thomas Jefferson the verdict would have
been the same" Mr.. Hopkins says. and
in conclusion he declares that the jury
tried to do their duty. regardless Of
what people said or thought
The Dispatch has been Of the opinion all
along that the Goodman fury were harshly
Judged. The public has never given suifl-
cient consideration to the fact that the
testimony for the Commonwealth, as pro-
duced at Charlottesville. was much
weaker than that produced at Covington
Then, too. the two juries were instructed
differently, even on points not affected
by Judge McLaushlin's decision. And
the long time that elapsed between the
killing and final trial had worked in favor
Of the prisoner. So. II there was a mis-
carriage Of justice at Charlottesville our
court system and the Judges who passed
on the case should share the blame with
the Jury.
The important question now Is: Are we
going to continue In force the law which
requires capita, cases TO be tried in the
county courts. and continue TO give the
accused the right of appeal to the Circuit
Court and the Supreme Court Of Appeals
both? There Is too much appealing al
lowed prisoners. One appeal would be
plenty. The prisoner might b. given his
choice of being tried either in the County
Court or in the Circuit Court. but the
only appeal he should have should be to
the Supreme Court Of Appeals.

The Association building was more
than usually we'll filled with guests at
the reception on Monday evening in
honor of the newly.eected officers. The
townspeople were there in force, and the
Academy students added life and interest
to the function. The parlors were taste
fully decorated with autumn leaves and
flowers, and delightful music was dis
coursed by the St. Johnsbury orchestra,
which played at brief intervals through
the evening to the satisfaction of all. N.
X. Young, the accomplished violinist,
played with the orchestra. c. H. Hor-
ton made short address on behalf of
the retiring officers and referred in COM
plimentary terms to the name of Smith,
congratulating the Association on hav-
ing general secretary and a president
so called. The new president, Judge
Walter P. Smith, then addressed the
assembly in a few well'chosen words,
after which general movement was
made towards the refreshment room up
stairs, where cake and coffee were served
by the ladies. The interest shown in the
Association augurs that it is entering
upon another year of increased useful
ness and success.

CHURCH NOTES.


The opening sermon Of Rev. Thomas
lyrics series of sermons to young
women was given in Grace Methodist
church on Sunday evening. The subject
was the worlds estimate Of woman, and
the preacher gave comprehensive
review of the condition of women from
the time of heather Greece and Rome
down to the present day, bringing into
sharp contrast the state in which the sex
was held under the heather and under
the Christian dspensation. He paid an
eloquent tribute to the power and inhu-
ence for good OF the w. c. T. u, and
also referred to the increasing privileges
being offered to women in the colleges,
expressing his opinion that before long
all the colleges will be open to them He
said that it was not true that
a college education untitled women
for domestic lines; that there are,
and always have been, some women who
could not keep house, but it is yet to be
proved that they could do so if they had
not had a college education. The SER
mon was listened to with great atten-
tion by large congregation, and no
doubt the series will be closely followed.
A cottage service will be held at the
home of Mr.. ames Blewitt, Paddock
Village, on Friday evening at 7.30, con-

ence. The regular choir was assisted by

1t is easy for us to realize that Just what
we have can be used for God, but it is
hard for us to surrender and bring it
into use. The real soldier is the volun-
teer. The beautiful picture Christ or
Diana was described and held up as an
illustration of the difficulty OF answering
the question, Christ or the world There
is no reason for any soul to be an uncou-
secrated soul because of any lack OF
talent. The Master left his opinion OF
that kind of excuse in the record of the
servant who had but one talent, no
excuse because of failures in other things

Some day the bony hand will come to
force the busiest personaway to another
