In the Republican Convention at Staun-
ton last Thursday, the name of L. 5. Dist.
Attorney Craig was proposed for temporary
chairman. The report is as follows: Hard
ly had the words escaped before the tall fig
ure of ex-Judge Luusford l.. Lewis, of
Richmond, strobe upon the platform, and
then followed the excitement of the day
Judge Lewis said he deprecated the nomina-
ton OF Colonel Craig as being a great mis-
take and one that should be corrected, and
urged the name Of Congressman James A..
Walker, of Wytheville James A. Frazier,
of Rock bridge, was eloquent in advocacy OF
Congressman Walker, speaking of General
Walker as a hero in war and peace, and as
the leader of the old Stonewall Brigade
when Jackson was shot down. Kissing was
heard as the speaker spoke of Jackson
This excited Mr.. Frazier and he shouted,
oh, hiss, you dog; the man who Kisses at
Stonewall JacksOn's name is no better than
dog, and hell is too GOO for him Gen.
Walker poured oil on the troubled waters,
beginning with Grants famous let US have
peace God forbid, said General Walker,
that my name should cause discord here.
At this point Judge Lewis stilled the storm
by Withdrawing Walkers name, aud Colonel
Craig was elected temporary chairman.-
General Walker was, subsequently, made
permanent chairman. The platform adopt
ed had no financial plank. Delegates at
large were instructed for Mckinley

A Plea for a Confederate Home.

There is a striking contrast between the
condition of the disabled veterans, who wore
the blue, and those who wore the gray
The one cared for by the gratitude of great
nation, the other dependent upon the love
of an impoverished people.
The esupreme nobility of Southern women,
those who sent fathers, brothers, husbands,
and lovers into battle for truth sake, is yet
watchful of the veteran whose step has be-
come feeble and whose lot has fallen in hard
places.
As the women of the South reared stately
monuments of costly marble in the Ccnfed-
crate Cemetery in Winchester so the Daugh-
ters OF the Confederacy of West Virginia,
are striving to build home for the poor
and disabled veterans.
The Daughters Of the Contederacy in
Martinsburg, aud Berkeley county are max
ing great arrangements to effect this r esuli.
About June Srd, they will organize a
grand rally which will be held on the lawn
of Senator Faulkuer's beautiful, aud hisior-
ic home, Boydylle. There viii be din
ner during the dag, and a Fete Champetre
at night
The lawn will be dotted with tents. One
in which a play viii be produced, another
will contain a museum Of Confederate relics,
al another beautiful maideus will Tell the
fortunes Of the anxious Swain. Bands OF
music, and numerous lanterns will beautify
and enliven the scene.
A magnificent supper will be served, and
it is anticipated that as a gathering Of beau.
ty and chiyalry the occasion will be unsur-
passed.
Gallant and faithful Jefferson will send
her quota for the sake OF the cause she loved
so well. and Battle Scared Winchester will
come in force with the same devotion which
sweled her heart when her streets resound-
ed with the tramp of armed men.
There the old generation will meet the
new and the veterans will meet the Sons and
Daughters of the Confederacy-a younger
people, but a people in whose heart the
pride of heroic ancestry reigns supreme
and together all will testify by their pres
ence, and by their contributions their appre'
citation of the noble cause for which the oc'
casion is had
Every Southern veteran of Berkeley and
adjoining counties is expected and many
will be there.
