The Republican, Convention.

What proved to be very har-
monious meeting Of the Virginia
Republicans was their State con-
yention, which met at Stanton
last week.
The great Allsn-W addeil fight
which had been looming up for
some time and appeared to threat
en- the quiet and harmony Of tn :
party in this State. proved to be
only talk. AMI was amicably set-
tied. Col. Lamo was reelected
State chairman.
A change in the plan of organi-
zation was an important feature in
the work of the convention. The
new plan takes from the shoulders
Of the chairman great responsible
ties, and places them, instead, more
upon the party itself. As far as
practicable, the party will be con
trolled by it's rank and file, which
can be termed home rule plan OF
organization.
Col. w. e. Craig, Of Stanton,
was made temporary chairman, to
which slight objections were made
by Judge L. L. Lewis, Of Richmond.
The platform adopted was nor
COmmittal on money matters. that
question not even being mentioned.
It instructed for Mckinley for
President. Hon. Jacob Yost was
the choice of the convention as can
didate for Congress from this dis
trict. He was placed in nomina-
ton by Charles Curry, attorney, OF
Staunton.
Julius c. Scheffer, Of Staunton,
and Z, 7. Hubbard, Of Fluvanna,
were elected delegates from the
Tenth district to the St. Louis con-
vention. The deIegaies-at -large
are Col. Lamb, Gen. Walker, Maj.

Secretary Onley is at a loss to un-
derstand the reason for the efforts
which are being made both in this
country and England to bring on
another war scare in connection
with the Venezuela boundary ques-
ton, by representing the negotia-
items to be in a ticklish condition.
There is absolutely no ground for
any uneasiness about this matter,
and it is probable that some big
stock-iobbing scheme is at the bot
tom ofrecent publications on the
subject inEngland and in this couR-
try. Somebody hopes to profit by
a ware scare, and regardless Of the
harm it might do to others has been
trying Systematically to bring one
to the front. 1t is gratifying to
note that the attempt bias SO far
been fiat failure.

turns out to be false the cause of
Cuba is materially weakened in

from Cubans in his district the pos

able Indignation among his col

ESFore the week closed he was con-

A Common Practice.

It's quite common for some trades peo- pie to persuade a customer to take some other article instead of that called for. It is sometimes called substitution, but it's cheating the customer out of that which he wanted. It is always done for mean mo- tive. The dealer who does this has no con- slderation for his customer. It's like get ting ride of something in which the dealer himself was swindled and yet he must get money out of 1t by deceiving the customer. We say to the readers of this journal that when yon ask for Simmons Liver Reg ulator don't take anything else instead it's the best liver medicine. The advertise ing is increasing the demand for 1t and the people who call for it should get it, espe- cially so because there is no liver medicine like Simmons Liver Regulator. Insist upon having it and note that the Red z is on the front of the package.
