REPUBLICAN ADDRESS.

The Dispatch prints this morning an
official uucrance from the Republican
State Committee of Virginia with respect
TO tho legislative campaign.
It IS a paper addressed to their local
authorities. and # advises them to make
no nominations this year. either for the
State senate or House of Delegates. The
alleged reason for this recommendation is
that our election law Is unfair. The clear
intent. however, is TO encourage independ-
ent Democrats TO enter the field in as
many localities as possible.
That Is an old game Of their party.
and the attempt has been made more
than once to play it on us. The commit
tee does not claim that it has the power
to decree that no nominations shall be
made, and It only urges and advises"
that each field be left clear 20 Demo
cratic candidates.
These tactics ought not 10 avail them
In any county or city where it IS found
that two Democratic candidates are go
ing 20 divide the party strength quite
equally. tho odds will be about five to one
that at the last moment practicable the
Republicans will come out with nominee
for whom the entire party vote will be
thrown. Our people cannot forget that
there have been such practices in the
past nor ought they 90 be easily con-
WINGED that they will not be repeated this
year.
As for che filings the committee make
against the Democratic machine" and
the Virginia election law. we have but to
remember that they are followers and.
presumably, admirers of that great cleo
ton refopmer Mr.. Hanna. Being pupils
OF that immaculate statesman, we can
understand how their tender hearts are
wrung with anguish at the thought Of an
election system which does not infanibly
return Republican candidates.
We 90 not think the committees adj
dress will unstring anybody's nerves.
The Democrats Of Virginia will probably
continue 20 manage their party affairs
without reference 10 what they threaten
70 do or not 20 do. just now we nre
having lively campaign for the sena-
torlal nomination, but it IS not whit
warmer than most of those which have
taken place in other States. where our
ancient enemies have found us firmly
united 90 confront them when the day OF
battle came. Indeed good many of our
fellows who are letting of steam" now

CARTER AMERICAS DREYFUs.
Counsel Declares His Client Is the
Victim of Persecution.
(ChicagO Chronicle)


publication Of the proceedings Of the
Captain Oberlin NJ. Carter court-martial,
whose verdict IS in the hands of Presi-
dent Mckinley for approval or rejection,
has been the cause of a number of sem
sational statements during the past week,
the widest of which is that Frank =.
Blair. counsel for Carter, has charged
General Elwell 5. Otis, now commanding
the army in the Philippines. with perjury
and subornatiOn of perjury in connection
with the statement Mr.. Blair has been
quoted as emphasizing the accusations.

General Otis" said Mr.. Blair last night

as coming from me. The affidavit was
filed with the President along with others

In connection with the assertion OF the
making OF a charge of perjury against

matter. and that the President had said

DIR. FAIR IN WASHINGTON.
Eloquent Discourse by Former hic"-

(Washingt0n PostD


Rev. James Y. Fair. pastor Of the In
dependent Presbyterian church, OF Sa-
vannah, Ca. occupied the pulpit at the
Central Presbyterian church at both the
morning and evening services yesterday
and delivered eloquent sermons to the
congregation. Dr. Fair is well-known
In Washington, and has preached at the
New York Avenue Presbyterian church,
as well as at a number Of other churches
i'm the city. He IS one of the best-knOwn
preachers in the South to-day. and his
splendid command Of the English Ian
guage enhances the pleasure Of listening
to his sermons. He is at present on his
way 10 Saratoga, where he will spend
short vacation.
HIS text at the II O'Clock services was:
"Sir. we would see Christ" John xii: Il.

DR. Fair illustrated by many points the
necessity for the death of Christ, and
stated that the vicarious sunerings Of

the immutable law that life is conditioned
on death. and that death is the beginning
Of life But for Christs DEATH" he
said eternal life for the Christian would

explain how foolish were the statements
Of those who held that atonement by

present age.
"The grain Of wheat is put into the

DALLAS, TEN, September 3.-Former

II has long been known among leading
Democrats OF Texas that bad political
feeling existed between Hogg and Bailey,
but it had been generally believed mat
the Ex-Governor would keep out OF the
senatorial fight. Now that he has step

II seems agreed by the newspaper press
that. taking the country by and large
Labor-Day is not observed as n distinct
lively class holiday. and that IL has not
become the popular thing It was expected
TO be.
Indeed, Il may be doubted II the per-
centage OF businessmen taking advan-
tage OF IL Is not larger than that CT me-
chanics and other workingmen.
Various reasons are assigned for this
result. one Is that the day comes at
season Of the year when opportunities
for excursions and outings are frequent
and when most men who wish TO man
age to get a day or two of and he 10 the
country. Again, the holiday comes at
season when the weather usually is warm,
and when it Is not easy 20 organize street
parades or other public demonstrations.
one other reason we may add, and this
is that public holidays have become nu-
merous. and It is not every worki1gman
who can afford to lose days wages.
public holiday is a good thing for sala-
red man, but may not be for one whose
wages are "docked." This is particular
ly true as 10 those trades which do not

such trades are brick and stone-masons
and others employed out Of doors.

and when 1t ceases to be popular with

can cause the law to be repealed. AZ
present the one thing which Is clear is
that the day Is not generally observed as
