Virginian-pilot. (Norfolk, Va.) 1898-1911, 1899-07-06

Twenty-six years ago Mr.. r. p. Bar
ham. the genial and accomplished
owner and editor of the Petersburg
Index-Appeal. took possession OF the
property. which during the eight years
of it's existence had changed hands five
times and was on the verge of dissolu-
ton. Mr.. Barham conceived the idea
that it was not genius and fine writing
that were needed. but progressive and
safe business methods in the counting
room. That he was correct is evidenced
by the fact that the Index-Appeal has
been n paying investment under his
management and is. although Il little off
politically at times, one of the best
newspaper properties in the State. The
Virginian-Pilot extends congratulations
and wishes for its contemporary many
years of usefulness and prosperity.

Ever since the political campaign OF
1888 closed, the Republicans have been
fighting vigorously for 19oo while the
Democrats. on the whole, taking defeat
too seriously. have been trying to main
tain a truce by themselves. But 1t is
high time they should have discovered
that a truce requires the consent and
cooperation Of both sides. There is no
use Of going to the polls at all In 1900
for the Democracy. If meanwhile our
press and people do nothing, and the
Republicans are busily entrenching. or

were not long in appreciating the enor-

and neither Rodden nor possible friend

Excitement ran high. On every street

places men cougregated and discussed the
raw work OF ROddeu. They had heard ru-
mOrs Of such things before, but never
had the proof been presented until The
Call laid bare the rotCeuness OF the Rod

The dIsgraced Judge, after reading Of
his own shame, presented a spectacle that
IN any other instance would have excited
the compassion OF men whose hearts
might have been made OF mud He ran up
