The Dispatch on Fitz Lee.

To 1HE FREE | ANCE:
| observe that the Richmond Dispatch
in a recent article says: eve have never
heard classed az Republicans Fitz Lee
and Others" it names. Please ask the
Dispatch IL Fitz Lee voted the Demo-
cratic ticket in either of the last two
Presidential elections, or if he in any way
indicated his support of Bryan in either
the canvass of 1896 or that of 1900. !
notice that Gen Fitz Lee rode 3, 900 miles
to vote in the primary against Swanson
and for Montague; but is the twin failure
to vote for a Democratic candidate Tor
the Presidency, or in any way to indicate
a support Of such candidate, by Gen
Fitz Lee a matter in the eyes of the Dis
patch of no import from Democratic
standpoint? am curious to see whether
the Dispatch answers this query.

The above is but a part OF "a long
editorial of the Danville Free Press.
And it is not the worst part OF it
either, by "A good deal. This follows:
AS we'll expect the Decalogue To be
ratified by the electorate OF hadcs. rs
we'll expect confirmation of death sen
tence on Capt. Kids men by the happy
ee-booters themselves.
OfwhOm is it supposed this editorial
is speaking? OF the enemy. the Re
publicans? Remember it is Demo
cratic paper speaking, and comes as
near being the organ OF the present
Democratic nominee for Governor as
any other paperin Virginia. Ofwhom,
then, is it speaking?' Why, OF DEMO
GRATIS? OF men that for years past
have borne the heat and burden OF
the day in every political contest III
Virginia.
The editorial points out how the
Legislature chooses the electoral
boards, each delegate naming the
board for his own district go that
the election machinery of the State is
in the hands of these boards and their
creators" The Free Press leaves us
not in doubt as to whom it means.
The Democratic members of the Gen
eral Assembly OF Virginia are part OF
the machine that it compares to
Capt Kids free-booters.
We would like to ask where is this
thing to end? Does not Mr.. Monta-
que desire the support of these free
hooters - If he does, can henOtput
a stop to such abuse as this? Recol-
lect there cannot be a machine
without men back of it. There can
not be leaders without some to lead.
Claude 4. Swanson has never yet
shirked a political duty. When called
upon Mt Norfolk the other day TO rat
ify the nomination Of the Democratic
party he did it in such a splendid,
manly way that even the Richmond
Times said, That man will be Cover
nor yet" What prominent follower
or advocate of Claude A. Swanson in
Virginia can be named that has not
accepted defeat smilingly and grace
fully? Yet they are but men, il must
be recollected, and have the feelings
and sensibiities of other men; and il
the party is to remain triumphant
and united the innuendOes and insin-
nations that were INDUCED in against
them by Mr. Montague during the
canvass for the nomination must
cease. As a rule they are Democrats
who know no wavering nor hesitation
when the battle is joined. The fight
is now on. The Republican hosts OF
Virginia are getting in battle array.
Before many weeks roll aroundit will
be seen that every Democratic vOtein
the State will be needed. There are
lots OF good fishing places that can be
found in Virginia on election day.
Some may go fishing and forget to
vote.
These things we say more in warn
ing than as a threat. 1t is not our
place to threaten, but we do warn
Democrats that this kind OF warfare
should cease. 1t is not wise, it is not
polite, it is not fair nor just.

It seems to us that the old rule of
law. Anything necessary to save a
state from anarchy is absolutely neces-
sary," is forgotten by those who, in
various Eastern and Canadian prints.
assail Funstons method of capturing
Aguinaldo. The old mugwumps in
their new guise of anti-Imperialists,
agree that Funston had no right to
capture Aguinaldo in the way he did.
1t was an unworthy trick" The use
of forged dispatches was "indefensible. ="
The entrance of Aguinaldo's camp by
stratagem, was as repulsiye as the
wooden horse fraud at Troy and the
mud-monitor trick in the American
civil conflict. Such critics are much
too superfine for war and ought to have
lived in the days of military punctilio,
when one regiment asked the gentle
men on the other side to fire first These
people had much rather see the Philip
pines given over to the sword and torch
of anarchy than to permit the capture
of the rebel chief by any thing more
drastic than polite correspondence.

The answer of the Republican party
of Hawaii to the slanderous generali-
ties which the Home Rule Legislature
has written against Governor Dole in
a memorial to President Mckinley is a
strong and cogent one. 1t shows that
the failure of the Legislature to pass
useful bills was due to the incapacity
of that body, and not to anything done
or left undone by the Territorial exec
utive. To anyone familiar with Ameri-
can political methods it is clear that
this official deliverance of the party in
sympathy with the President, will put
the Home Rule petition and the gem
eral plan of ex-monarchists and rene
gade Republicans to remove Mr.. Dole.
entirely out OF the sphere of practical
politics. The dual scheme is now a
negligible quantity; and time and
money given to its furtherance will be
wasted. Governor Dole will stay where
he is, the. Legislature will have its
measurements posted in Washington
and Wilcox and Beckley will find
themselves without influence in de-
termining any phase of the executive
policy towards these islands.
