The Legislature of Virginia has,
during the present session, appropris-
ted a sum of money to place the
statue of General r. E. Lee in the
statuary Hall at Washington. This
has been done, not because it is
necessary to perpetu ate the memory
of Lee, but for the reason that each
State has the right and is expected
to place the statues of two of her
greatest men in the Hall, and Vir-
ginia now has only one, that OF
George Washington. The memory of
Lee, of course, cannot be honored by
placing his statue there, but it will
be an honor to the United States, and
law makers and law Interpreters will
do better and be better in having
the statue Of the great man at the
Nations Capitol. That this is the
correct view of the case many
will accept but some do not and the
latest in the list of "howlipg idiots"
who do object are the members Of
the Grand Army Of the Republic OF
the department of West Virginia. In
their opinion, according to resolu-
ton passed by them at their recent
annual encampment, "The Statuary
Hall should not only be kept free
from r. E. Lees statue, but forever
free from anything that will en-
courage disloyalty or would emulate
treason or rebellion" Such resolu-
ton, of course, does not detract from
the fame of Lee and should not pre-
vent us from occupying with his
statue the place at the Capitol to
which we are entitled, but while such
toads exist the statement is not and
cannot be the truth as has been of
ten claimed, that we have reunited
country"
Lee traitor and denounced as such
by West Virginia g. A. r. Camp!
Poor imbeciles. 1t perhaps has never
occurred to them, what fools they
have made of themselves, and that
when all such have passed into the
great beyond and their names and
deeds completely obliterated that
high above on the honor roll of i'm
perishable fame will shine out the
name of that great hero, Robert E.
Lee.

Ex-President Grover Cleveland was
the central figure among the thous-
ands at the dedicatOry exercises OF
the st. Louis Exposition last week
and received an ovation which far
surpassed the one extended to Presi-
dent Roosevelt. This greatly pleased
Uncle Grover and he had the right to
be pleased and grateful too at this
unexpected demonstration in his
honor. 1t was graceful act on the
part OF the Democrats, and OF the
Republicans too who participated in
the ovation, thus to honor for the
time a former Chief Magistrate OF the
nation. That he did not accept it
though in the spirit in which it was
given but as boom for another term
of the Presidency las indicated by bis
willingness in an interview since to
be again the leader of his party,
makes one feel that the old man is
almost in his dotage. The precedent
established by Washington and
which Grant in the noontide of his
popularity could not destroy of
course forbids it, and Grover should
not have allowed his head to be
turned by the yells the boys gave
him. He ought to know that
the next National Democratic
Convention cannot do a thing SO
idiotic as to select man as its stan
dard bearer whom thousands OF
democrats in many States of the
Union, because of his record as
party wrecker," would not support
No, Mr.. Cleveland, including
Bryan, Hill and others are not Tin
it" in the next Presidential race.
The Democratic party will go into
the next fight, it is stated, for success
and they, if true patriots, should
realize the situation and hasten to
step down and off the lofty pedestals
on which they have been so long
posing.

The case of Judge Campbell is now
being heard by the Senate and it will
not concur, it is believed, in the &C
ton of the House. The indications
are that the McIlwaine report provi-
ding for joint commission to reopen
the case will be adopted, and in that
event, the case will not be up again
until November and then fight will
be made to allow him to serve out
his term, of about two months more,
which will result favorably to Camp
bell. 1t is folly to burden the State
with further expense in the matter if
a decision cannot be reached before
the Legislature adjourns.
