There is an effort being made, we
hear, to gerrymander Judge Letcher
out OF bis judicial seat. We have no
sympathy with such move, and would
agree to it only under conditions OF
the direst necessity. Rockbridge and
Augusta would make a good judicial
district if Rockingham is too much to
put into it. Rockingham and High
land would go we'll together, as these
two counties are soon to be joined by
q railroad.

Republican success in Baltimore is

If the Valley counties all fall into
the Republican line there will be more
bitter wars between party leaders
than now exist in Rockingham. There
will be more leaders than offices and
the question of who shall have the
bone will cause strife.

There should be no disfranchisement
of any voter by our new constitution
except for crime, that the voter him
self cannot overcome by honest effort.
In other words if voter is disfran-
chised for some reason other than
crime. the causes should be such that
if he go honestly to work to bridge the
difficulty he can do sO.
The restriction will thus work to bis
advantage as man and as a citizen,
and to the general good of the State.
Any law is odious which puts igno
rance and worthlessness on an equal
ty with education, decency and thrift
and this lesson if not taught in other
States, should be taught in Virginia,
and we welcome the day when such
teaching shall begin.

For some time would-be leaders in this |
county have been playing fast and
loose. protesting Democracy, yet many
Democrats believe, were secretly con-
niving with Republicans. This had
gone as far as human nature could
stand, and but for the fact that the
lesson they were about ready to admin
lister would have fallen on the heads
of those who did not deserve censure
there might have been a serious re-
buke administered. Could the blow
intended have been dealt where it was
really aimed it would have been se-
we're one, and long to be remembered.
As it is the present machine, if it has
eyes can see that it has slipped several
cogs, and may slip several more unless
it mends its ways. These occurrences,
however, tend usually to improve
conditions, and the Lesson of the 9Th
may convince that machine that its
journal are not sufficiently oiled to run
without hitch or hlndrance. A word
to the wise is sufficient.
There is no denying the fact, however,
that the Booker Washington dinner
incident helped matters for the Demo
Gratis in this State. Had that not oc-
cured the majority would not have
been so large, though local troubles
were not Obliterated by it to any de-
gree. The changes to Democracy in
the Southwest show that Col. Hoge
was very weak and unpopular candi-
date, and that the constitutional con-
vention has caused no nightmare in
that quarter. 1t shows that there was
apathy, but it further shows that no
matter how apathetic the people the
Federal office holders cannot run the
State, nor will it be turned over to men
whose principles are no greater than
their ability to acquire office.
