Z = Doast. s'A

We make no EXCEPTIONS. We say that
the republican county ticket is the best,
and 70 think the voters will bear % out
in this statement, slection day. It is need.
less Tor us to dwell on tho respective
merits of the candidates as every voter is
aco uainted with their characters, past
or present, and know full we'll that they
art deserving and capable. We do not
want to make any personal rehections,
neither do we desire to make any per
sonal reflections, neither do We desire to
make any conn PARSONS, but We do want To
impress every voter with tho sacredness
of the privilege that he ts asked to exer-
cise on election day. 1t is the duty of the
voter to see that able and competent men
are selected to fll positions of trust. 1t
is the duty Of the voter to lay special
preferences aside and work in the interest
of uniformly good government. Every
voter that votes the republican ticket is
on the safe side.
If We are to elevate to position Of trust
man who for the mere gain of few
paultry dollars will openly and proudly
jeopardize his manhood and violate laws
of his country by usurping rights and
privileges that are forbidden, to what
standard Of social level arc We to be
brought! We want to sound tho tocsin
of warning! We call upon our iawabid-
ing and lawloving citizens TO register by
their ballots their disapproval against
che elevation to an elective publis posi-
tiou this wolf in sheep's clothing. These
charges are not idle ones. Consider
think before you cast your ballot. Doss
any citizen of our county want il heralded
through the breadth and width OF the
land that Mclean county has honorsd d
blind pigger. lawbreaker BY eisctiop TO

LYScENG AWAITS TEEM.-.The cit
liens OF Rockport, eighteen miles from
Petersburg, ". Va, are hunting the
woods and neighborhood for two
tramps, who will be lynched if caught.
Thursday evening, during the alb
sence of Samuel Stephens, who lives
near Rockport with his wife and two
year-old child, two tramps broke into
the house and assaulted Mrs. Stephens.
The men threatened to murder her if
she made an outcry, and when the
child screamed they beat and kicked it
50 terribly it may not recover. After
the tramps left the woman gave the
alarm. The neighbors were aroused
and pursuit was begun, but the tramps
succeeded in getting into the woods.
All the roads and highways are guard
ed and descriptions have been sent out.

GENERAL LEA letter from Rich
nond says General Fitz Lee left the
city Thursday for Lynchburg, where he
will remain day or two. 1t can be
stated that while here Lee made it
pretty well understood that he would
not think Of running for Governor ex-
cept az the regular democratic nomi-
nee, hut he did not gay or intimate that
be intended being q candidate. The
situation appears to be this If Lee is
permitted by the next administration
to hold the position he now flls he will
be Satisfied TO remain in Havana, but in
the event of a change he will almost
certainly run for Governor. No matter
what he does in reference to the Gov
ernorship he will aspire to succeed Dir.
Martin ip the Senate.
Those who know the general well
say they think ne would prefer 10 hold
on to the consul generelship, but if it
appears that the new administration
will make change Lee probably will
be quite willing to run for Governor.
He would be candidate only before
the regular democratic convention, and
would seek the united support of the
party. Should he become Governor he
would no doubt then aspire to succeed
Mr.. Martin In the Senate,
