The danger line has been passed by the
Democrats in their canvass for their State
and legislative tickets, if, indeed. there
ever was any remote prospect that they
would meet with rVerSeS at the polls. II ne
reason assigned for this is two-told per-
haps the strongest part of it being fur
nished by the head of the Republican
party, President Roosevelt. when he had
locker T. Washington to dine with him
in the White House, and when 1t was an
nounced by his close friends that he pro
posed to give other mixed dinners from
time to time.
The other portion of the reason has
been brought about by the Democrats
themselves, through their bravest and
best leaders, when they gave a flat de-
NAL to the ISLANDERS, circulated by their
opponents for political capital, to the CT
feet that the Constitutional Convention,
made up almost exclusively of Democrats,
purposed to deny to their own people the
right of suffrage, to disfranchise q, large
proportion Of the white people in the
State.
These things. coming almost together,
and coupled with the splendid fight that
is being made by Chairman Ellyson /a9ad
the other party leaders throughout /tfc
State, have put Colonel Hoge's canGDSs
in a sorry attitude before the people, and
have placed him beyond the pale of being
considered seriously in connection with
the governorship.
Democrats at first did not expect to
carry the State by any old-fasllioned ma
jority without big fight, but now their
yoke has been made much easier, and
they say they will march to triumph On
November 5th with comparative ease.
THE TERRIBLE BLOW.
If there is one thing on earth. the barest
semblance of which the white people
of Virginia will never tolerate. it is social
equality with the negro and when the
head of the nation gives a dinner in the
White House in honor of negro. 1T but
serves to intensity feeling against it and
to lower the party whose leader is re-
snonsilla for it among all classes of
white people.

with the other. lie talks about obliterat-
ing party lines III the South and then
lllar>s more deeply those which are de-
stined to forever divide the races. In my
judgment his action in entertaining a
nSg.o at dinner in the White House is
worth over 10000 votes to Montague, and
insures his triumphant election beyond all
question. The white people of Virginia
I.wtIl never tolerate social equality, and
.they will visit their unstinted wrath and
condemnation on any party whose great
I.eSt leader undertakes to thrust and fOiSt
it upon them"
Such sentiments as these have been fire.
quently heard since the remarkable Incl
dent occurred, and no one is found now
who believes that the Republican ticket
has the slightest prospect of success this
fall. Well-posted Democratic leaders an
ticipate an overwhelming victory next
week.
ANOTHER GOOD SIGN.
Besides those mentioned above, there
are other signs in the air which seem to
foretel q big Democratic victory. One of
them is the harmonious manner in which
all clements of the party are struggling
\ side by side FOR the success of the ticket.
The brave and gifted Swanson has thrown
himself into the thickest of the fight and
is declaring from the hustings that Mr..
Montague is his candidate for Governor
and is appealing to the people to rally
around his standard. Lieutenant-Cov-
ernor Ecilois is. chairman of the City
Commjttee of ST Pmton and member Of
the STAN, Executive Committee. and in
both cRIHcitieY is rendering splendid
service, While captain Marshall is work
ing like a aSipr in the Second District.
Judge sarh1S9Villiams. Captain Parks.
Senator JGffrieS Judge Robertson and
Senator LIE Cato are all on the stump ana
harmony is prevalent in a camp where
the Republicans had hoped there would
be divisions, chickering's and heartburn
ings as a result of the disappointment at
Norfolk.
Chairman Illyson in all his experience
has never labored more faithfully ana
orators representing every shade of ante
nomination sentiment have responded to
his calls TO go the stump. Mr.. Mon
tague WILL according to good judges, De
elected by the usual Democratic majority
and both branches Of the Legis.s ture WIZ
be safely Democratic. C. a. 3.
