iu 1870, with particular reference Il
the relative amounts paid by whites
and blacks for their support.
The total cost of the Virginia pub
lie schools from 1870 to 1899, inclusive
has been 1876. 1856.
The white schools cost $25, S43, 430.'
20.
The negro schools cost 81, 075, 700
so
OF this the whites paid for theil
white schools, $25, 843, 430.20.
The whites were taxed for negro
schools, 50, 192, 877.32. IL
The negroes have contributed only
81 49,, S7S.4S.
The total amount paid by whites

Act ON School Histories

The history committee of the
Grand Camp of Confederate Veterans
held meeting in Richmond Monday
night. The attendance was slim and
little was done. The resignation OF
DR.. Hunter Mcclure as chairman was
in, but the committee declined to ac>
cept it.
The fact was brought out that
Fiske's History of the United States,
which the committee has been try
ing SO hard to have taken from the
list of public school books, is used in
the primary schools of only one coun-
ty in the State. The book is used in
the high schools of several cities, but
the State board of education cannot
prescribe the books to be used in such
schools. A great majority of the
schools use Lees and Jones' histories,
to which there is no objection on the
part of x-COnfederates.
The members of the committee,
however, recommend that communi>
cations be addressed to the secreta>
ries OF the various county school
boards requesting that Fiske's and
Cooper, Estill and Lemons histories
be not used in the common primary
schools.

The candidates of the two parties
considered there ought not to be any
doubt in the minds of anyone how he
should vote in November. Mr.. Nc
Kinley is not now and never can be
president, only in name. Boss Hanna
owns and rules him, and in his hands
he is now and will be powerless, to
rid himself OF the trusts and mOnop-
lies which are robbing the people Of
the country, if he wanted to do so, or
to stay the hand of those who have
no regard for the constitution of our
land. Mr.. Bryan on the other hand if
elected, would be President of the
United States and has proven it by
the stand taken by him on the silver
question. Believing as he did in it
nothing could swerve him from the
right as he saw it, not even the pros.
pect Of losing the nomination for tho
Presidency, and he is the nominee of
his party to day because the people
of the country know that he is honest
and sincere and will, if elected, put
into law what he incorporates In a
platform and teaches on the hust-
ings. The one is a politician, the
other statesman, the one seeks
place and has no scruples as to means
of getting it, the other has convic-
tions and would rather be right than
President. The people will decide be-
tween them in November and there
ought to be no question as to which
they prefer to be the chief uagis-
trate of the nation.

The National Committee OF the
Gold Standard Democracy has decid-
ed unanimously against fusion with
the anti imperialists and not 10
nominate Gold Democratic ticket.
In the opinion of the committee, the
danger of the free-coinage of silver
at the ratio of Is to having been
relocated to another generation, the
necessity for third party nc
longer existed-and the inference IL
inst therefore, we presume, the
money question being regarded as
past issue, that the most OF the doiC
democrats will be in line with the
regular democrats in the Presidential
campaign of this year. But what
ever the motive which prompted the
members of the committee in arrlv'
;ne at their decision in the matter
their action is at least gratifying il
that it means, there will be no or
gained opposition in the democratic
ranks against the regular nominees
OF the party and no one therefore
will be deceived in casting his vote
this fall. His vote will be either as q
democrat for Mr.. Bryan or as re
publican for Mr.. Mckinley and no
democrat will be SO stupid as TO be-
lieve that he can deceive anyone by
protesting to be a democrat ano
voting for the latter.

There is movement on foot among
some of the negro politicians in Vir-

mate the vote of their race from the
politics of this State. Circulars have
been printed and distributed broad-
cast through the State calling for a

The State Board of Agriculture ad-
journed to meet in Roanoke next Oc-
tober. After thoroughly discussing
the matter of establishing tobacco
experimental farm the board decided
to take no action at present, but ap
pointed committee TO examine into
the matter and report at the Roa-
noke meeting. Commissioner of Ag-
riculture George W. Koiner charged
express agents of the State with neg
ligence in handling fruit. The board
decided to appoint committee to
appear before the next legislature
and secure the enactment of laws sim
liar to those enforced in other States.
The first case of person convict
ed under the Conditional Pardon
law occurred a few days ago. The
accused is woman from Loudoun.
She was pardoned out of the peniten-
tiary conditioned upon her future
good behavior, as provided under the
law passed at the recent session of
the Legislature. The woman, it
seems. was not satisfied with her
freedom. and committed larceny
and has just found her way back in
the penitentiary, where she will serve
out her full term, with an additional
sentence for her last crime. The
Conditional Pardon law has thus far
worked well and this is the only case
in which a beneficiary has abused the
privilege extended.

The evidence is acumulating daily
that most of the democrats OF The
country, however far they may have
wandered from the democratic fold
are getting back into the ranks
again. That, they would be in line
in November, was expected. The
surprise is that anyone who loves his
, country can continue to vote tbs
: republican ticket. II there are any

their eyes ought TO be. opened to-the
---.s-..aki AN d. -theis dety to sthcnSeIsee
and theircounty made clear to them
by the following Indictment OF the
republican party by the Cincinnati
Inquirer:
THE party's history from the close
of the civil war is an almost contin-
uous chapter of scandals. At every
opportunity it has raided the pub
lie Treasury. 1t has made thousands
of unnecessary offices and filled them
with party hacks and henchmen who
have done dirty work for the party.
1t has favored all reforms and vio-
lated every law which was enacted
to inaugurate or enforce them. 1t
has wasted the public moneys in
every conceivable manner which in
genuity can suggest or corruption in
vent. During the Spanish war spec
ulation entered into almost every
government contract. Favorites
were enriched at every touch of the
public service. The army was
abused by appointing unworthy
persons to office, which weakened the
efficiency of the service and imper-
lied the lives of the soldiers who had
answered the call for volunteers. Ig-
norance and ipefficiency and even
corruption have been overlooked or
been violated, the laws disregarded,
authority usurped, slavery scknowl
edged by treaty and guarded and
protected by the American flag. A
country has been seized on the plea
that our Republican administration
bought it and holds that the inhabi
tants thereof were covered in the bill !
of sale. Millions. upon !. millions of
money has been spent and thousands |
of soldiers have been killed or have |
died in hospitals ar insane asylums. |
Thousands Of Filipinos have been
slain; their harvest destroyed, their
homes turned into ashes. The ma
tional administration this day is
fighting to make subjects, not free
men. And all this is not in con~
forinity with the Constitution, the
lave, the policy or past history of our
country, but is open violation OF all.
Do the people of this country ap
prove these wrongs done by the Re-
publican administration? If they do
are they worthy to enjoy liberty?

without saying. 1t goes without
saying also that in this majority
there will be enrolled many thous-

who look more to the good, the flu

party, than to the forelOrn hope OF

spicious for Virginia that the
