Under the heading of "Who is Stigma
sizing virginians?" the Richmond Times
of yesterday quotes some recent utter
nnces Of the Dispatch as TO the use Of
Hanna's corruption fund in this State
md goes on to sayi
1.-THE Dispatch is sorely offended that
the Times should charge election frauds
against few counties in the State. and
thinks 1t outrageous in the Times TO say
such things OF its own people, and yet
without an atom Of proof TO JUSTIFY the
charges, the Dispatch advertises TO the
urorld that there are thousands upon
thousands OF white men in Virginia who
we're induced by money considerations To
uesert the Democratic party and cast
their voSs for Mckinley. Bah!
The Dispatch is sorely offended because
rhe Times charges election frauds against
number of counties in Eastern and
southside Virginia, while it has no words
Of condemnation for the Hanna methods.
On the contrary, so far from denouncing
Hanna and his methods, the Times has
recently eulogized him as a great patriot
snd a man worthy of the country's favor.
AS for proof" we have just as much
against Hanna and Hanna's agents in
this State as the Times has against the
election officers in Eastern and Southside
Virginia But we hope TO have some
thing more after "a littlTpaNaile. Very
Rstute and experienced az Were ea-
ployed by the Hanna people to look after
McKinley's interest in Virginia. and they
were as careful as possible to cover up
their tracks, yet we believe they did not
wholly succeed. Let US wait and see.
The Times claims that there were Re-
publican gains of 10000 in our white coun-
ties at the recent election in this
State; but in our opinion the Times is
"away Off" in it's figures; yet where Nc
Kinley gains must be conceded, explana-
tons Of them may usually be found In
the existence of agencies which were at
the beck and call of Hanna.
So far as "stigmatizng Virginians" In
the matter of alleged election frauds is
concerned. we must say that the Times
has done this so effectually for several
years past, we have little fear that any
Thing we may now say of Hannas opera
lions here will be injurious. What
state, indeed, can afford to reproach
US on this subject? What State was
II in which Hanna's agents did not
work? Isn't the record of Hanna's dGngs
in every other State the same "a
It Is In Virginia? The only difference
hiscoverable is that in most other statea
Hanna bought or bulldozed his way to
victory, while in Virginia he found a
white population, the large majority OF
which could not be influenced in any
way by the agencies that Hanna set TO
work.
BY the way, Colonel William Lamb
chairman of the Republican State Com
mittee of Virginia, is on record in yes
ferday's Dispatch as saying that "dupi'
city and corruption characterized the &C
ton of some of the sound-money leaders
I'm Virginia." We do not know precisely
what he means. but we suppose 1t can
not be doubted that ne was In a posi-
ton 10 know much Of what was goins
on In Virginia, in the councils of those
who were arrayed in opposition to the
5,ap,ocra tic nominees.

THEY SAY 1T WAS LEGAL.
A Philadelphia Savings Institution

PHILADELPHIA. November 1.-THE
largest local bank subscription to the
Republican National Committee was that

FINANCIAL LEGISLATION.

II seems that Congressman Dingley is
not only destined to occupy an unusual
STARE Of public attention by reason OF
the agitation over the tariff bill that
bears his name. but is TO be still further
forced to the front by discussion OF the
bond bin of which he was the patron.
The New England papers have taken up
The latter measure, which some of them
hold IL one OF decided merit, and there
ssems no question that an effort VIII be
made to get 1t before the present Con-
nress also. So far the discussion OF the
bond bill has not afforded any evidence
Of what would be It's strength at the
coming session OF Congress. There Is no
tntimation. as in the case OF the Dlngley
tarir bin that It would command the
votes OF some of the sound-money Demo-
Gratis. But the discussion is becoming
earnest enough to make IL OF interest
10 the public TO know what are the pro-
visions OF the measure.
The Dingley bond bill, as reported from
the Committee on Ways and Means Of
the House. passed that body by vote OF
ITO yeas to 100 nays. but was practically
knocked out OF shape ia the Senate by
silver amendments. and on It's return TO
the House was rejected-yeas. 30; nays.

was discovered that two young women
had been murdered in a church in San
Francisco. Durrant, the young assistant
superintendent OF the Sunday school
which these young women had attended,
and who was tried for these murders,
and convicted, has not been executed.
The execution has repeatedly been de-
layed on technical grounds. and further
delay was granted a few days ago by the
Supreme Court. The result OF this has
been, says San Francisco special. to
excite in California decided contempt
for the administration OF justice. The
crimes Of Durrant were OF most shock
ing character.

According to the London correspondent
of the New York Times, a reopening OF
tbs case of Captain Dreyfus is quite
likely, since 1t is understood that the
Car has taken an interest in the fate OF
the unhappy young officer, who was con-
victed Of selling Frances military secrets
to Germany. The correspondent says:
"When l was in Paris last month 1
found the belief in his guilt TO be very
general, but even those who had doubts
of it still opposed reopening of the
thing, for the reason that If the Captain
is innocent some bigger man is guilty,
and 10 expose and punish the latter
would probably do France infinitely more
harm than she has already sustained, 10
say nothing OF the violent blow it would
deal TO public confidence in the army adj
mnistration. Questions are to be asked
In the Chamber now, though, and II the
report Of the Cars interest gets wide
circulation very probably there Will be a
fresh and deeper investigation"

The Baltimore Sun notes the discussion
now going on in some quarters over the
proper pronunciation of such words as
duke" Student" and new" and re-
marks that whatever sins of orthoepy the
South may have to answer for IL has a
clear record on this question. No one
ever yet heard a genuine southerner say
"dook," ''stoodent," or moo" The open
sound of gu" in such words is always
heard south of Mason and Dixon's line
even among the illiterate. 1t is great
pity that the same thing cannot be said
OF the rest OF the country. But 1t must
be admitted that many persons who ought
to know better indulge in the barbarous
locution of "dook," "statoote," "toolip.
"avenoo," etc. 1t IS gratifying to note
however, that this bad verbal habit Is be-
coming less prevalent every year.-The
New York Tribune.
1t is true that as rule our southern
speech is exempt from the objection
noted, but among a small class of our
young people we regret to say there Is a
disposition to ape even the errors of the
North. Hence we have to say that even
down here, now and then, we hear words
pronounced in the barbarous manner pro-
scrbed by the Sun and Tribune.

proceeds were to be used for the re-
oemption OF United States Iegal-tender

second section OF the bill authorized the

date. In lawful money OF the United
States, and bearing interest at 3 per cent.

Whatever may be ones opinion 90 to

to say that the discussion OF 1t or Of
any other financial measure SO soon after
the election is wholesome recognition
of the urgent necessity for some change
In our monetary system.

THEIR HEADS IN DANGER.
Federal officials In Virginia Who
May BE Removed.

washington Correspondence Baltimore
American, 17th)
II was asserted to-day on the authority
of General Preston. OF Wytheville. Va.
that President Cleveland will remove Il
large number of Federal office-holders in
Virginia and elsewhere who made them
selves unpleasantly conspicuous during
the late campaign. It will be remembered
that on the day after the election Secre-
tary Carlisle summarily removed half
dozen or more prominent officials In his
department for campaign activity, and
Secretary Morton has since then also
made several removals. There is a dis
tinct feeling OF uneasiness among those
ofiice-holders whose prominence in the
carlpaign made them marked men, and
there Is scarcely day but some official
seeks an interviey with the head of MS
department to explain his speeches On the
stump. Up to the present time. however.
men like Auditor Baldwin and Deputy
commissioner-of-P Pensions Bell have not
been touched. General Preston Is quoted
as saying that Mr.. Cleveland, In the

''The Baltimore American, deriving It's
information from its fraters, the enc
mics of the Democratic party in this
State, is engaged in lecturing Virginia
on honest-eection laws" says the Rich
mond Dispatch. We have not lectured,
but we gave the facts as furnished from
the best sources and admitted by the
more candid Democrats themselves. VIII
the Dispatch say that in the election
held on the Sd of November there was
an honest plurality in Virginia for Will
liam j. Bryan?-The Baltimore American.
Yes, we will, and Wen add that but
for the Hanna corruption fund and the
unfair agencies employed in this State
by Hanna and Hanna's men, Bryan's
plurality would have been twice as large
as that now credited to him.
The Baltimore papers are doing the
people of Virginia great injustice in
charging that Virginia was carried for
Bryan by fraud. They ought to stop it.
1t is not true: 1t is not right, and it
is not good journalism.

HANNA HAD A sto,ooo,ooo FUND.


New York IournaL)
Various stories anoat relative TO the
recent Republican campaign fund have
created amusement In political circles,
because the sums alleged TO have been
furnished Mr. Hanna are so far short of
the actual cash amounts contributed. Re-
ports from the same source differ, one
stating that the Republican National
Committee had 100000 TO expend. an
other raising these figures by a million.
AS matter OF fact, Mr.. Hanna's COM
mttee had upward OF si6,0o0o0o at its
disposai IL reports OF Republicans and
Republican organs are 10 be credited.
This Is only four times the sum usually
spent by national committees during
presidential election. and not particularly
large. when IL Is considered that all
the financial institutions. railroad COM
panies. mercantile establishments pro-
tected Industries. and wealth In general
were opposed to the Democratic ticket
and anxious for the success OF the Re-
publican.
HIS SYSTEM OF TAXATION.
Chairman Hanna, who is intensely
practical. and has frequently said that
he conducted the Mckinley campaign as
he would business, suggested that as
sessments be levied upon States. The
agents In the various States were in
structed 10 divide prospective contribu-
tors into classes. In this way a perfect
system OF taxation was secured.
The institutions asked for contributions
were national banks State banks. savings
banks. trust companies. railroad com
panies. firms representing foreign finan-
cial interests, and all kinds Of manufac-
turing concerns having an interest in
high-tarif legislation.
Divided by States. the list OF Repub-
lican contributions looks something like
this.

SO It seems that the National Woman's

that while they are in the White House

anti-liquor presidential policy adopted by
Mr.. and Mrs. Hayes will be adopted by
Mr.. and Mrs. Mckinley.

An azure sea where cloud ships
Go sailing slowly by.
The bright glad CLINT OF sunbeams
Flecks through the falling leaves;
The harvest fields stand waiting
With summers gathered sheaves.
The friendly birches whisper.

Glad Natures voices raise.
For summer days and harvest.
