therefore most difficult to make a correct
diagnosis. No matter how severe, or under
what disguise dyspepsia attacks you Browns
Iron Bitters will cure it. Invaluable in all

THE MUSEUM

We are gratihed to know that there has
been manifested a keen interest in the
Valentine Museum by the people Of this
community. The management have ben
overwhelmed with applications for al
mission, and the visitors have gone there
not out of curiosity. but Tor the love OF
art. We say this not at haphazard. but
on the authority of the gentleman who is
in charge. who is himself an artist and
a lover Of art.
We are also gratihed to be able to
state that since the Museum was opened
there have been number of valuable
donations. and there is now promise that
the already large and admirable collec-
ton will have many additions in the
early future
The Museum is not only attractive in
Itself. but is a splendid rallying place
for the lovers of art in this section.
There are many such in Richmond and
vicinity. but it is rarely that they meet
together in conference. Hereafter they
will meet regularly and often at the
Museum. and they will not only brighten
their own wits and increase their love
of art by this contact. bur .they will or
ganize for the promotion of art here.

Richmond has not before had an ins,itu-
ton of this character. and now that

AN ANSWER TO THE FREE LANCE

The Fredericksburg Free Lance makes
the following comment upon our recent
article concerning its suggestion that
the Democratic party nominate Dewey
and Wheeler in 1900. 1t says:
'Fas est alb hoste doceri" is an ancient
and accepted maxim. The Free Lance
is prompted 10 commend its application
TO the Southern Democrats in connection
with its suggestion of the presidential
ticket for 1900 for the Democratic party
as national organization. The bare
suggestion Of Dewey and Wheeler seems
TO have stirred up The Valley Nirginian'
pronounced Republican. and the Rich
mond Times, which, according 10 the
opinion OF more than 80 per cent OF the
Democrats of Virginia. was i'm 1896 an

fitting the blood and brains of its editor.
The Richmond Times which In 90 grOan-
ed under and protested against the many
harsh and unknd filings made at 1t by
the free silver press of the State. speaks
OF the suggestion Of 1.-The Free Lance"
doubtless after its own ideas of journal
1stic courtesy. as foolish advice. In
the same connection It takes occasion to
indulge In quite dissertation on true
Democracy. an ever recurring theme with
The Times. TO the average Democrat
as The Free Lance has more than once
heard practically stated. the Democracy
of The Times resembles very much 'hc
one obstinate man who hung the jury,
standing out effectively against the other
eleven, and who said, when asked Tor
reasons for so doing IL was all owing

The Times intended no sort Of dis
courtesy TO the Free Lance in speaking
Of It's suggestion as foolish advice
We are never Intentionally discourteous
unless an occasion arises in which we
think the time has come to throw ameni-
ties away and call people hard names
This was certainly not one Of those occa-
sions We meant 10 characterize the ad-
vice and not the adviser but we admit
we should have said unwise and not fool
ish. though the advice is. in our opinion,
30 very unwise, that the word hardly fits
the case.

HAY DAY IN GEORGIA.

The farmers in some parts Of Georgia
have inaugurated most admirable GUS
tom of holding what they call Hay Day"
On such occasions the farmers gather
together at a given point. in some live
town, and make an exhibit of hay that
has been grown on their premises. Hay
Day was recently observed in Albany
Ca, and a correspondent writing from
that point says that the hay exhibited
was such as TO bring pride to the South
Georgians heart, and. in point Of ex-
cellence. was beyond comparison with
the Western article Premiums were Of
fered and given for the best exhibit. and
there were other features Of the show
which made it attractive.
The object Of these exhibitions IS, as
will be readily inferred, TO stimulate the
farmers Of that section to produce their
own hay instead of buying the product
Of some Western farmer. There is the
true secret of successful farming. The
farmer cannot afford to buy from another
farmer what he can just as well produce
on his own farm. Hay Day" in Georgia
is a great institution. and We would like
to see such a day inaugurated in Virginia.

We are sorry that the old Richmond
and Petersburg Railroad Company hast
lost its identity and its name. IL Is an
old Richmond institution. and while we
know that there were good business rea-
sons for combining it with the Peters
burg road, yet We would have been graft
fed If the old name had in part at least
been preserved. The Richmond and Pc
tersburg rai'oad and the Richmond and
Danville railroad are two of the Oldest
roads in Virginia. but the word Rich
mond IS no longer used in designating
them and the old association is entirely
lost. We had at one time the Richmond
and Allegheny road. and the Richmond
and York River road but that too. has
been absorbed. and its name retired. \
few years ago there were four railroads
going out of Richmond, which were all
named for Richmond. Now there is only
one that retains the local designation.

Republican comes nearer being grass
hopper than anything on earth except a
boa oonstrictor.-Staupton Spectator.
our contemporary has gotten the thing
backwards. Republlcanism has not
brought prosperity to Kansas; 1t is pros
perity that has brought Republicanism
to the front-that IS TO say, it has driven
free silverism into the background-whch
is the same thing.
Hard times struck Kansas and the
people got the idea into their heads that
the "crime of 70" was responsible for
the trouble. Moreover. they were made
to believe that there coulG be no more
prosprity until the minis Of the country
should be opened to the free coinage OF
all the silver in the world. But pros
perity has come to Kansas under the
gold standard. and the people find that
they were deceived by the cry OF the
Populists. In the last campaign they
were quite satisfied with existing conii-
lions and were not to be rallied around
the silver standard.
Free silver feeds on calamity, and ca
lamlty in Kansas is scarce.
