1t is very probable, as we some
time ago predicted, that the national
Democracy will declare for free coin
age and nominate silver candidate.
Several state conventions in the West
and South have pronounced in favor
of this policy and those sections are
certain to be solid for it. They will
cast what electoral vote the Demo-
Gratis get this year, too. There is no
hope for the party except on free
silver issue and little there, but the
managers may conclude to try that
little. The rank and file are undoubt-
eddy for silver. They are likely to
have their way. Gov. Boies OF Iowa
is suggested as a silver candidate for
the presidency with some Southern
man for vice-president. II the lines
are drawn on this issue, the North
and East will surely be Republican,
the South and most OF the far West
surely Democratic, while the other
western and the central states will
witness conflict as intense and bit
ter as has been waged for years.
There can hardly be chance OF Re-
publ can defeat with q clear sound
money candidate and platform.

VA. August 2S-(SpecisL)-Joseph Ry-
land Murdoch was yesterday ordained to
the Baptist ministry at Bennington Bap-
list church. The interesting service was
enjoyed By a large crowd from the sur
rounding country Rev. j. ". Ryland. an
uncle OF the candidate, preached the ser
mon; Rev. Alexander Fleet, OF Tspoa-
hammock. made the prayer. and Rev. +. u.
Beale delivered the charge 20 the candi-
date. Rev. c. II. Ryland. Of Richmond
presided over the meeting. There were
present also Rev. W. B. Duiing. from
Berkeley, and II. A. Bagby, 3. c. H.. OF
Richmond. The exercises we're interest
ing and impressive.
Mr. Murdoch is a King and Queen boy
and an N. A. Of Richmond College, having
taken his degree in 1895.
He is now a student at Grocer Theologi-
cal Seminary. and has been called 20 the

POLITICS.
Like all the men meet, cannot stop
without a little politics. 1t IS the uniyer-
sal topic. There are efforts on foot 10 or
ganize campaign clubs all over the coun-

our County Court next week. the sover-
eigns viii get 10 be thoroughly aroused.
A BIG MAJORITY.
SO far as I can judge, and have talked
with men from all portions OF the county,
the enthusiasm for Bryan and sewall and
Jones is unusual, and the Democratic ma
jority in this county will be larger than
II has ever been.
