THE DEMOCRATIC srAiE CONyEN-
TON.

The convention Of yesterday was pro-
nounced success. In point Of attendance.
when tho length or tire and utter lack
OF organization are considered. 1t sur
passed The anticipstions OF its staunchest
advocates. In personnel It was an ex-
cepuonai body. representing alike profess
sional and business men, and containing
a goodly proper tion OF those who work
FOR wages and live upon fixed incomes.
It was a most enthusiastic and yet
orderly gathering. and its deliberations
lcit the indolible impression upon the
minds OF all VINO were present that they
wcrc deeply in earnest and intensely de-
voted to tho fundamental principles Of
Democracy.
II demonstrated beyond question that
from over this grand old Commonwealth
there was coming in the next election a
powerful and potent protest against the
unDemocratlc and Populistic propaganda
or the Chicago Convention.
~ evidenced the fact that there were
vet earrest men in Virginia who refused
positively TO surrender their adherence TO
tho principles laid down by jefferson and
Jackson. and who though IN recognized
minority could not he shaken IN their
steadfsst devotion 10 the faith OF their
fathers.
There was no faltering or hesitating In
the men who composed this convention.
There was no evidence OF convictions light
ly held. or spirit OF coquetry for the spoils
Of Office a plain duty actuated each
separate delegate. and a firm and uncom-
promising loyalty 10 Democratic doctrines
possessed each member present
There were no words Of reDroach or
bitterness for those Of the party who
are acting at this time under different
and delusive Inspiration. but the lines
were clearly and distinctly drawn. and
tine issues are now made up for this cam
psIgn.
The sound Democracy and sound money
advocates are TO be congratulated upon
