VIRGINIA DEafoCRAT5.-A dispatch
from Richmond says all of the members
of the democratic State committee in
that city to attend called meeting
express perfect confidence in the Bryan
ticket sweeping the State by an over
whelming majority. The concensus of
opinion of the committeeman there from
all sections is that an immense vote will
be polled this year. The rural voters,
they say, are manifesting more interest
in this campaign than any preceding
one ever known in Virginia. Senator
Echolls, of Staunton, who is a member
of the democratic executive committee,
says that in his opinion Flood will de-
feat Yost in the Tenth (Siaunton) dis
trict by very decided majority. His
reports from all sections OF the Valley
are to the effect that the democrats will
sweep everything before them. He
has heard Of no losses that amount to
anything much, and on the other hand
knows of accessions to the democracy
in the Valley and in other localities.
