The gratifying assurance is being
received daily through our exchanges
that General James A. Walker will
not be his own successor in Congress.
The democrats of his district are not
only united against him, it seems,
but many republicans of prominence,
disguised with "Walkerism," it is
stated, have deserted him and an
nounced their intention of voting for
his opponent. Figures obtained by
the Richmond Dispatch from reliable
sources, giving the majorities in the
various counties composing the ninth
district, give Rhea majority over
him of twelve hundred or more-and
it would be surprising if they were
not correct. Every Virginian, what
ever his political convictions, ought
to have been Disguised long ago With
a man who has. persisted in abusing
and slandering the people of his State,
as he has done. In the other districts
of the State, it seems to be, only a
question of what the majorities will
be of the democratic candidates over
their opponents.

Mr.. VIM. 7. Bundick, of Onancock,
made two temperance addresses in
the State of New York last week, and
filled several appointments in Balti
more this week. He now has a
national reputation and as tenn
perance orator ranks we'll with the
best. Of his speech at Middleburgh,
N. Y, last week the Register of that
town says: His address was of a
high literary character, and he is no
ordinary orator. His ideas are in
many respects novel and original,
but he did introduce few of the old
time statistics, merely as proof of as
sertions made. 1t was the general
opinion of those who listened to Mr.
Bundick that such orators must be
put on the platform in future, if the
cause they espouse would make any
Roadway, or even hold it's own.n

The Washington correspondent Of
the Richmond Dispatch says: The re-
publicans now depend on the Presi>
dent to save the next House. Boss
Hanna and other leaders are so well
pleased with the apparent success of
Mr.. McKinley's Western tour that
they intend to start him off on an
Eastern trip soon. He will be swung
around the Eastern circle, visiting
the principal cities in that section,
with the expectation that he will
arouse the apathetic Republican
masses. Hanna admits that there is
great danger of losing the next House
if something extraordinary is not
done to bring out the party vote.

For Congress-,

The contest in Virginia next year
for the United States Senatorship,
according to the latest advices, will
not be between Hon. Thomas Martin
and General Fitzhugh Lee. No dec
laration to that effect, so far. has
been made by General Lee. but the
fact that Hon. Walton Moore, OF
Fairfax, has authorized the an"
nouncement that he is in the
race for the Senatorship, and
that Hon. William a. Jones, Cover
nor Tyler and others are mentioned
as candidates for the position, JUST
fies the conclusion that General Lee
Is out of the fight. General Lee was
too universally accepted as the choice
OF the people for any one to oppose
him if he was still in the race and
their candidacy raises the presump-
tion which is very natural one, that
he no longer has senatorial aspira-
tions. Such being the case, the ques-
tion which now confronts the people,
is, who is most likely to win in the
contest with the present incumbent
Mr.. Jones in our opinion would be,
but either of those mentioned could
be, who will present their claims to
people and give them an opportunity
to give expression to their wishes in
the matter. Mr.. Martin should be
beaten by some one. He is not up to
the standard in ability for United
States Senator from Virginia, and is
not in harmony with the people on
many important questions. he is not
of the people. but of and for the cor
poratlons which elected him once,
and will do so again, unless the peo-
pie take hand in the matter. He
has shown his unwillinguess to trust
them by his opposition to Senate
rial primary, and they ought not to
be willing to trust him. Virginians
ought to see that no one is elected
Senator who does not owe his pros
motion to the position to them, and
who is not responsible to any one but
them for his acts as Senator.
