The statement is made on apparent
ly good authority that vermont's
eight delegates to the Kansas City
convention will cast their votes for
W.J. Bryan as the Democratic
candidate for President. The
Pennsylvania Democratic convention

pledged to him the votes of
Pennsylvania sixty four delegates.
When Admiral Dewcy's attention
was called to the fact. be quietly
remarked, '.Pennsylvania usually
goes Republican The inference
from that remark 10 that the attitude
OF Pennsylvania Democrats is not
worth considering If that be the
meaning OF Admiral Dewey, he is
greatly mistaken. The Pennsylyania
Democrats will have voice in naming
the candidate more potential than
the voice Of several Democratic

be overlooked that a nomination.
must precede an election. 1t NAV
be said Of Vermont, or of Psnsyl-
vania' that it always goes Republican
but Vermont is Dswey's native State,
and without the support OF the dele
cation from his own State he cannot
hope to capture the nomination of
the Democratic National convention.
If it is positive fact that the Yer
mont delegates unanimously favor
the nomination of w. j. Bryan, Ad-
miral Dewey might As well hang his
harp upon the willow and retire from
the race, unless he choses to run as
an independent candidate, in which
case he will be left so far behind that

Opening OF the Exposition.

According to announcement. the
Paris Exposition was opened last
Saturday with imposing ceremonies.
Nothing was omitted which could
enhance the spectacular effects of
the great event. The French are
naturally fond of display, and are
celebrated the world over for. their
good TASTE, and they have much ex-
periance in getting up managing
great expositions. The prasent dis
play excels in magnitude and varity
and effectiveness all of its prede-
cessors, not excepting the Worlds
Fair of Chicago in '93. 1t is said that
$4,000. 1000 persons visited the Paris
Exposition in 1889, 1t is believed
that double that number will visit
the French capital this year. As
usual on such occasions, the prepa-
rations were not completed on the
opening day. For a month vet Ia
borers will be busy working on the
buildings, arranging exhibits and
beautifiing the grounds. President
Loubet add M. Millerand rose to
the occasision, and pronounced elo-
quent orations on the opening day,
welcoming the visitors from other
lands to French hospitality, The
commercial Importance of the expo
sition can hardly be overrated. II
has been and is now a potent factor
in the preservation of peace. The
French people could not afford to
forego the pecuniary advantage of
the exposition merely for the gratifi-
tion of their bellicose propensities.
But for the exposition it is more
than probable that the disputes be-
tween France and Great Britain
would have eliminated in war. One
OF the most important benefits of
the international exposition is that
1t makes for peace.-Lynchburg

MIR. Hoar, the Senior Senator from
Ma 'sachusetts, made a great speech
in the Senate last Tuesday. The
speech, which occupied three hours,
was brilliant and scathing denun-
citation OF the present policy of
government. We give few extrects:
Il believe not only that pei sever
ance in the present policy will be the
abandonment of the principles upon
which our government is founded,
that it will change our republic into
an empire, that our methods of leg
islatiou, OF diplomacy. of administra-
ton, must hereafter be those which
belong to empires, and not those
which belong to republics; but Il
believe presiste nee in this attempt
will result in the defeat and over
throw OF the Republican party"

and not of despotism; of life, not Of

1t has covered the continent. 1t is

The Republican Platform.

An influential Republican journal,
the Chiago Inter Ocean, is response
be for this significant warning to
the party of the great moral ideas.
We quote:
The Republican party must go be-
fore the people in the Congressional
and Presidential elections of next
fall on the platform of s.free rum
and taxed bread. free rum and tax-
cd clothing, free rum and taxed med.
icines.' 1t cannot escape this dj,as-
trous issue, which has been avowed

Can be Reelected on the issue of free
rum, taxed bread and broken faith.
If this paragraph had been penned
by Democratic editor, it might
have been resented by Republicans
as slander on their party; but com
ing as 1t does from Republican
sheet, it must be rsgared as an indi-
cation OF comiming danger to the
Republican ticket in the approach
ing Presidential campaign. The
Northwest has usually been safely
Republican. If now there is serious
disafection in that stronghold, how
can the Republicans expect to carry
the country in Novemberi It is
clear that the Democratic outlook
grows brighter as the election day
approaches.-Lynchburg News.

The Race Problem ntsConstitu-
ttonal Convention

The Race Problem antsConstitu-
tional Convention
AS unalterable as the laws of the
Modes aud Psrsians, the white man
OF the South has decresd that the
negro shall not exercise the political
right granted to him by the constitu.
ton Equal protection to the negro
OF his life and property under the
law, is freely accorded, but the line
is drawn in politics, and the white
man says to the black man: "thus far
shalt thou go, and no farther" Out
side OF politics these is na race prob.
lem. 1t ia an open secret that tho
principal reason of the Constitutional
convention is the suppression of the
negro vote in Virginia. The right
to restrict suffrage as a penalty for
crime Is not questioned. Selling
your vote is such crime as deserves
disfranchis ement That many both
white and colored, do sell their votes
is also a notorious fact. A CONSTITUTE.
onal convention to disfranohise these
characters is not needed inasmuch
as the legislature has the power to
enact any further laws needed for
tins purpose, If the laws are not now
sufficient.
An educational qualification would
be good thing, provided it should
not go into operation for a reasona
bic time after IL becomes a law; and
provided further that all persons
over certain age should bo exempt
from its operation. But this does
not reach the core OF the problem.
As long as the negro vote is solid
Tor one political party, il is the mill.
stone that sinks that party to the
bottom OF the political sea. Doubt.
less it would be better for the negro
race and for the best interest of the
body polite, and great deal better
for the morals of Virginia and tho
South, to dlsfranchise the colorsd
man 10y a constitutional enactment
than to pretend TO give him the
franchise and commit perjury, theft
and even murder TO prevent him
from exercising that right. This ia
a serious problem, taking human ma
ture as it Is. No doubt great many
men, both white and colored, ought
to be disfranchised for various and
sundry good reasons, but to discrim-
mate solely on account OF color is
crI2a ecs'snlst tho Avs OF God and
man. This problem is as far from
solut'cn as II was a generation ago,
and we strongly doubt the ability OF
the political leaders in Virginia to
properly deal with 1t. Let the DO.
litical demagogue be relegated to
the rear and let the best men of both
races discuss the problem from the
standpoint of the best interests of
all. We did not start to out offer so
luton OF a problem, but only to state
some OF it's knotty fenutures. We
believe we know as much about the
solution OF this problem, as any
young country editor and we have
told about all We know.-The
