come here, In Atty years the Old Do
minion might be made In wealth,
culture and population almost second
England. There is no reason why this
could not be done, for the two countries
resemble each other much rs to climate
and productions, with the advantages
of both on the side Of Virginia.
The people of both countries are OF
the same race. and nowhere perhaps In
the United States does an Englishmsn
find himself more at home than in Vir-
ginia. With the proper display OF
energy many ..Emigrsnts from the older
country might be induced to settle here.
and 1t goes without saying that with
their natural thrift and industry they
would soon have homes of independence
and comfort. Not only, however, might
English settlers be induced to come
but Germans, Swiss, and men Of other
European nationalities have heretofore
lived and thrived In the Old Dominion,
leaving as their descendants some Of
Its most liberal and progressive citizens.
The point then is to make this State
one Of the greatest in the Union by q
steady advertisement Of Its resources
and by Offering liberal inducements to
worthy-hom seekers In the United
States and elsewhere. In furtherance Of
their schemes for increasing their
wealth and population, she people Of
the Mort western States have organized
immigration associations, of which that
in Minnesota will serve IS an illustra-
ton. AS soon as 1t was organized and
offices established st st. Paul, tmmiRra-
ton committees were appointed in all
the counties and circular setting forth
It's aims and purposes issued. Besides
asking citizens generally to cooperate,
they were invited to send to the secre-
tary Of the State association the names
of all desirable immigrants in other
States and foreign countries with whom
they were acquainted. especially mem
tioning those who proposed to seek an
other home, In order that books and
pamphlets descriptive Of Minnesota and
Aso AcsoufSoo miBAt 10 oeut ~ tuom'
Virginia should adopt some such plan
to get the names of desirable settlers
and furnish them with literature de-
scriptive of the State and It's resources.
The county committee plan is especially
commendable, inasmuch as 1t would
create q local interest in the matter that
would add greatly to the effective work
OF the State association, It Is q shame
that the magnificent resources of this
State should 80 long lie undeveloped
when by effective organization and en-
ergetic work degree Of interest might
be excited in Virginia as o place for
home'seekers that would leadsto the
most gratifying results. Georgia, Ala
bama and other Southern States are
working energetically along this line,
and Virginia should do likewise without
delay.

WASHINGTON politicians think that

In the field, and in some places in the
South newspapers have besn flying the
name of General Hardin for nearly q
year. In all the informal states that
are being figured on, however, IL is
pretty generally conceded that the
nominee for first place must come from
the West or Northwest, and that the
second place shall 60 to the South.
Should this idea prevail in the conven-
ton the following men would be in
position to be struck: Stevenson, TEL
Ter, White, Bland, Boies, Campbell,
Warner, Matthews and Bryan. For
second place many men would be
available, II the choice was from the
South. Chief among them. 1t Is said,
would be Senator Daniel or Senator

Next would be Blackburn or Hardin,
Morgan or Jones. Bacon or Bailey; in

JEWISH DAY OF ArosEMEsr.
Services OF an Isnprcsstve Character
NJ the sYnnxaRue.


Yesterday on the Jewish calendar was
the most sacred of all Hebrew festivals.
It being Yom Kippur. or the Day OF
Atonement. This religious festival COM
menced Wednesday evening at o'clock
and lasted until the same hour last eve
ming. The observance of the "Sabpatn
OF Sabbaths'' consists not only in religiour
worship, but absolute fasting.
The sermon OF Rabbi Il. n. Calisch at
Beth Ahaba Wednesday night was APP
propriate TO the season. the subject be-
ing. "Atonement-Day. an Institution re-
culiar to Judaism" The discourse was
a mastery one. and was listened TO by
large congregation.
Services began at Beth Ahaba at 10
o'clock yesterday morning, and lasted
until shortly after O'Clock last evening
Mr. f.. Bottigheimer officiated at the
first service yesterday, and this was fol-
lowed by the solemn ceremony OF taking
out reading from. and replacing the sa-
cred scrolls by DR.. Calisch. The new ritual
was then sung by the choir;
At the noon service DR.. Callscn
preached another excellent sermon. MS
subject being Some Things to Think
Over" The afternoon service was con-
Quoted by Mr.. Bottgheimer.
The most impressive service or the day
was the memorial service conducted by
DIR. Calisch at o'clock. 1t Is called
"Almarachum' and is regarded as q
substitute for the old sacrifices or meat
offerings by fire. DR.. Calisch offered
prayer for the dead. and an Offering was
taken up. The closing service was begun
at o'clock. and lasted until shortly
after o'clock. when all repaired to their
homes to enjoy a sumptuous FEAST AFTER
a fast of twenty-fOur hours. The attend
ance at all the services yesterday was
large. the Synagogue being crowded the
entire day. The singing of the choir
was impressive and beautiful.
services were almost identical with that
of the Biblical days.

corinne at the Academy Tonight.

Since the death of Mrs. Jennie Kimball
the Corinne Extravaganza Company mas
passed into new hands, and many sweep
ing changes have been made this season.
The play has been entirely rewritten, and
the scenery and costumes have been reno
waited. The company has been entirely
reorganized. and with the exception OF
little Corinne. not a single member of the
old company remains.
"Hendrick Hudson Jr.," is a bright
story, ceyerly conceived and executed.
and il Is said that the changes that have
been made this season have had the effect
of making the play even stronger and
better than formerly.
The cast includes none but well-known
people, and some of them are in the front
rank Of vaudeville artists.
The company will be here tonight. and
for two performances tomorrow.

LET TILE TIMES ANSWER.

The Richmond Times of yesterday rises
10 disclaim any intention Of aspersing the
personal character OF Senator John w.
Daniel and to defend Mr.. NJ. Il. ingalls,,
president OF the Chesapeake and Ohio
railway. and champion his cause against
the great mass Of the people OF Virginia.
Before IL gets through the Times be-
comes badly ratified, loses its temper, and
uses some rather naughty words. But
we let these pass as the somewhat ma
turai buzzing resulting from the humble
bee state the Times has gotten itself
into. AS to the Times's disclaimer with
reference to Senator Daniel. we accept II,
but would say that that disclaimer proves
that our contemporary was very unfor-
tunato In it's use OF language and its
logic when Il undertook 10 comment
Upon the Senator's Danville speech. Also.
that all who read those comments will
agree that the legitimate conclusion was
that the Times classed Senator Daniel
with ballot-box suffers. And, by the
same token, all who read the Timess ar
ticle OF yesterday, in answer TO the Dis
patch's criticism of its reference 10 the
senior virginia senator. will. We think,
conclude that 1t seems more anxious 10
vindicate Mr.. NJ. Il. Ingalls, than to put
itself right regarding the Senator.
However. what riled the Times most
was the statement OF the Dispatch that
80 anxious was the Times to join Mr.
Ingalls, and the other South-haters in
their denunciation OF our people that
II has words of condemnation only for
Virginia Democrats. and nothing but
praise for Its Republican allies" The
Times indignantly denies that Mr. Ingalls,
IL South-hater. and that II should he
classed with the South-hatevs. We can
only judge men and papers by the COM
pany they keep and the doctrines and'
causes they espouse. Mr.. Ingalls, is an
avowed advocate OF Mckinley. dyed

WORTHY OF IMITATION.

A Democratic county chairman in Vir-
ginia a few days ago received the letter
which we print below. The writer Is
man of small means. and his contribution
is very large part Of his yearly earn
ings:

campaign fund II needed later on. l

MrKINLEY SIZES THEM UP.

Mckinley evidently knows his friends
when he sees them. Last week the Re-
publican Editorial Association OF Ohio
called on him at his home. In his address
to them he had this to say of the bolter
newspapers. supporting the Republican
cause:
Fortunately, in this contest the Repub-
lican party is not alone in its support OF
the Republican cause. Conservative men
of all parties stand with it. 1t numbers
among it's strongest allies many OF the
most powerful Democratic newspapers,
East and West. which are doing yeoman
services for patriotism and national
honor.
The Major has sized them up exactly.
They are supporting the Republican
cause, and deserve his favorable notice.
