The Democratic Convention at
Chicago, according to our latest ad-
vices, had not selected the standard
bearers of the democratic party for
the offices OF president and vice
president, but the advices are, that
1.-The people are in the saddle and
that so far they have had their way
and propose to have it, whatever OBJ
stacles are thrown in the way, by the
minority, which in defiance of all
democratic precedents, is unwilling
for the majority to rule. The silver
ties, in other words, so far have been
masters Of the situation and in the
exercise of the right delegated to
them by the people selected Hon.
John w. Daniel, temporary chair
man, Hon. Stephen NJ. White, of
California, permanent chairman, and
have framed the platform according
to their own liking and such as the
people, whose representatives they
are, expected of them-a platform
that cannot be misunderstood or mis-
interpreted. Free and unlimited
coinage OF silver at the ratio OF Is to
l is the leading feature OF the plat
form, and the action OF the conven-
ton in that respect, will, we believe,
be endorsed by the people at the
polls in November.

The International Christian En-
deavor Convention which met il
Washington Tuesday night is the
largest convention, religious or secu
lar, ever held in modern times 1t was
expected that 200 persons, from al
church denominations, would be re
gistered as delegates and it is well ur
to public expectation in numbers
With the young people, OF which the
convention is principally composed
are many noted divines, the great
leaders OF religious thought on the
Western Continent. The great
features of Christian Endeavor work
are: First, the conversion OF the
world, at home, abroad; second, good
citizenship, the idea that churchmer
should see TO it that government is
honest and efficient; third. TIE pre-
servation OF the Sabbath as day fol
rest and worship; fourth, the destruc
ton of the liquor traffic. But there
are other causes for which its mem-
bers stand, and il is safe to predict
that the result OF their six days con
vention will be felt along whatever
lines itmay be directed.

TIE three Maryland crabbers re
Gently arrested ard confined in oul
jail, for violating the Virginia crat
law, were released on last Monday, OIL
bail in penalty of $3.50 each for THEN
appearance at the next term of oul
county court. They will not appear
of course, as they have no ground fol
defense and the $3.50 with costs will
be promptly paid into our court by
their bondsman. Such the finale OF
these grabbing cases, but humorous
incident in connection with the same
is, that Hon. A. Lincoln Dryden who
started here to act as their counsellor
and friend, got lost on the way and
did not reach Accomac G. H, at all
He doubtless expected to promote
that little congressional boom, which
he has been nursing so assiduously Of
late, by showing up here, and he al
most has our sympathy for MS
ignorance as to the journey to oul
county seat, if he thereby suffers in
the opinion of the prisoners with
whom he doubtless wished to in
gratiate himself by heing on hand to
extend congratulations when they
were released from the Jail.

The action Of the Baltimore. Che

The action Of the Baltimore, Chesa-
peake and Atlantic Railway Co., in
reducing the freight rates over its
lines from 20 TO IS cents per barrel
from this time until October 31st
cannot fail to put our people in good
humor with that company and make
them willing to go out of their way
to patronize it when it is possible for
them to do so. That company, in
voluntarily reducing its freight rates,
proves that there is one corporation
which not only is not soulless. but
can sympathize with them in their
distresses, and is willing to help them
out of them. That the action of the
company in this respect merits our
commentator and entities it to our
sincerest gratitude, no one will ques,
ton. 1t is, however, a matter of no
surprise to US. So far as We are ad-
vised, it is well in keeping with the
treatment which We have usually re-
ceived at the hands of it's officials.
