many OF the crops OF the Southern States

Il IS urged. therefore. that the farmers

This SIS something that every farmer

Of books and be able to tell from year to
year just what crops he planted, what

WITH THE VIRGINIA EDITORS.

out OF the body OF a thoughtful editO-
rial on the political situation in Virginia,
we take the following from the Bruins
wick Gazette:
This is now the trouble with the DEM
ocratic organization in Virginia. Having
crushed out everything like organized op-
position by the Republican party and hay-
ing long held supreme control in State
affairs with no other party IN the field TO
act as q check upon Il. with no adversary
worthy Of the name. TO m0lset or make 1t
afraid. the Democratic organization in
Virginia has degenerated into mere ma
chine controlled by political adventures
ana used. not for the advancement Of
principle but TO down those Democrats
who do not speak the language OF the
tribe" and whose aspirations and ambi-
lions conflict with their own In other
words the party organization in this
state has become simply an instrument
TO advance the political fortunes OF those
who control X. IL is a close and self per-
petuating corporation which has been
aptly chrstened 1.-THE ofiice-holders trust"
tho aim and object OF which Is by fair
means or foul. TO control the offices, State.
county and municipal. and to parcel them
out regardless OF the popular will among
those who constitute aid compose the
trust.
This is the logical outcome OF one-party
rule. The Democratic party has been
master OF the situation in Virginia Tor
fifteen years and the office-holders are
now masters OF the Democratic party. A

Mark Twaln's article IN the current
Barper's Monthly upon the Jew, is one
of the most readable OF his many readable
productions. II not only shows Mark ~
his best in humor and graphic wriuI
hut Il discloses a depth and breadth Of
learning that few were prepared TO expect
in him.
Nevertheless We cannot accept his con-
clusions in dealing with the jew and his
relations TO human society Ha dissent5
from the very common view that the cru
ci6xion OF our Lord and Saviour is at the
bottom N the Jews unpopularity and he
attributes that unpopularity 10 the fact
hat the Jew is shrewder ia trading than
The Gentle and that the Genule's enmi'y
Z nothing more az bottom than envy on
account Of the Jews success and his fall
ure.
We want 10 say rlsht here that the OLE
legged unpopularity Of the jew does not
exist in Richmond. The Richmond Jews
are amongst Richmond's most progressive
and conservative citizens. they are so
recognized by the population at large. and
there is no more in the way o. enmity
against them here than there is against
the people Of any other religious dcnomi
nation. They are part Of Richmond's
people accepted as such by all the I'M
habltants and respected and honored as
eoad citizens who perform their fun part
NJ every social obligation resting upon
citizens The Jew may be unpopular else
where. but he is not unpopular in Rich
mond.
We read with great interest and great
pleasure the address upon this subject
reviewing Mark Twains article, made
last Friday night by Rev. DR. u. ~
Cansch. Mark Twain has recommended
that for The Jew 90 meet The prejudice
against him he should organize and the
whole body Sf Jews should cooperate to-
retber 10 advance the Interests OF jews

WHAT SAY THE TOBACCO MEN?

We have NOT been able 10 see any Of the
tobacco men of Richmond concerning the
suggestion OF our Halifax correspondent
that the planters OF the bright tobacco
belt OF Virginia and North Carolina meet
in January next and form an association.
We have suggested that this meeting be
held I'm Richmond. and we believe that II
the tobacco dealers Of Richmond would
invite the farmers TO come here. they
would accept the invitation, and II large
ana enthusiastic meeting could be held In
Richmond and an association formed. the
movement would undoubtedly help the
Richmond tobacco market.
We would like 10 hear from some Of the
tobacco dealers on this subject Rich
nond cannot afford 10 neglect her tobacco
interests. Her great need now ia this d.
rectlon IS to cultivate more intimate rela-
lions with the tobacco planters and an OPP
portunity is here offered which should not
be permitted to pass unimproyed.
