Wounded In the House OF His Friends.

RICHMOND. VA. Oct. l3.-As stated in
these dispatches several days ago. Sena-
tor Daniel has been severely criticised by
Democrats here and elsewhere in the
State for not taking the stump in this
campaign. Major Daniel went 10 Europe
a few days after the Chicago convention
on legal business and remained there
several weeks. Since his return his time
has been occupied with an important
law case in Lynchburg. There Is an
impression here in Democratic circles that
the Senator Is little sensitive about hsx
position on the plank of the Chicago
platform touching federal interference
in State affairs. The senior Senator
from this State was opposed to this dec
laration at Chicago. but could not de-
feat it In the committee. The voters of
Virginia are anxious TO hear him dis
cuss his advocacy now OF this feature
OF his party's platform in view OF his
record in the Senate along the same line.
In the remote possibility OF Virginia be-
ing carried by the Republicans. Senator
Daniel would have to make a mighty
strong fight to be returned to the Sem
ate next year.-Baltimore Sun.
