n
out at tho Slate Democratic head-
quarters it is cyideut that tho Re
publicans and their allies, the .Gnde.
penden;s,' will not be u fac!tr in
the next Legislature.
The figures now give probably
fifteen members of that body as
likely TO be other Than the regular
party nominees, und this includes
the counties that frequently are rep
resented by Republicans.
The "Iudependent movement is
losing strength aud caste all over
The State as the regular Democrats
begin to realize that the Republicans
alone would reap the benefit of any
Justification i'll the party Ranks. Tie
counties are also beginning to ap-
preciate the absurdity of sending Il
representative here who would not
be In touch with the dOminanl ill.,
fuences, and part of the forces
which must control in this State as
lonS as its good government shall
continue.
The papers that encouraged tho
"Indepeudents" short while ago
are climbing lack into the Demo,
cratic band wagon, and now with a
show of great vigor call on the party
leaders to defeat every "Indepen.
dent that dares to show his head.
This Is an encouraging sign, for
some papers never come out strong
until they are confident az to how
the thing is going to end, aud then
with tom-tom~ a.,i timorels they
rend tho air with n joyous noise.
In the Senatorial district compos
cd Of Southampton, Nunsemond and
Ise Of Wight there is still fierce
controversy between Colonel II. T..
Boykln and the candidate put fow-
ard by the gentlemen who, while
claiming to be 10, al Democrats, have
refused to acknowledge the suprem-
acy of the rules under which the
party organization exists, AMI in the
face of ii just decision Of the State
Committee.
There is little doubt, however, that
Colonel Boykin will be returned, for
while personal Jeeling may actuate
tuose leaders opposed to him, the
Democrats of the district will not be
as willing to repudiate tho party or
ganization rs ONE of the gentlemen
who are now holding Office by virtue
of its end orsement.
AS the election approaches all the
signs are propitious for sweeping
Democratic victory, aud those who
have seen fiji to encourage the sem
blance Of revolt in favor of the Re.
publicans will have the poor satisfac-
ton of knowing that they have the
political friendship of neitLer side.

To Begin Active Work.

General Otis is planning another blow
at tho insurgents in the execution of his
general scheme of Fastening the end of
the rebellion in Lu2on before the advent
of the rainy season. The fact appeared
quite incidentally in a cablegram re-
ceived from him, to which he replied to
an inquiry from the war department
relative to the discharge of the volun-
teer soldiers serving in his army. These
soldiers are entitled by the promise of
the war department and perhaps by the
terms of their enlistment, to be sent
home as soon as relieved by regulars.
General Otis said the men We're will
ing to stay in the Philippines as long as
there is active service for them, and then
he added that he was about to have
some work of Importance for them, indi-
eating that another movement forward
was in prospect.
