Compliments Mr.. Koiner.

The Martinsyille Standard has the
following to say editorially in regard
to the work of Commissioner Koiner
and the board:
1t is matter for supreme gratifica-
ton to note the rapid strides that Vir.
ginia is making under the wise admin.
istration of Hon. G.. W. Koiner, com.
missioner of agriculture, and his able
assistants, the members of the Board
of Agriculture. Much of the improve.
ment in farming in this section of the
State is due to the new life that hat
been infused into the farmers by Com

a monstrosity, a holy terror, "a wild

only be exhibited behind heavy bars
of iron in cage. at least that is where
Savoyard and the Post would like to
put him. AS soon as the 'gentlemanly

feat which cannot be excelled for in
decency and vulgarity in any brothel
in the country, a blackguardism to
use his own wards, which is mot only
low but stupid" The following is a
sample of the Savoyard sputa:
"Mr. Bryan has lost his manners
and descended to the cOarseSt abuse,
and he makes poor stagger at 1t.
Parson Brownlow and Brick P0meroy

country laughed when Mr.. Kasson
characterized George D. Prentice as
''the butt cult of original sin and the
upper crust of damnatiOn," and there
was q smile when Brick POmerOy said
of Brownlow that every pismire on the

cry blackguard of Billingsgate more OF

that sort of scurrility that half redeem

blackguardism is not only low but it Ii

This is in line with the low flung

by a lot of newspapers in the land
which are really Republican, but
which are too cowardly to float thei1
true cOlors.
Why is this vulgarity employed
Because Mr.. Bryan has dared to speat

WE CAN EXPRESS OUR WISHES FOR

The Staunton Daily News in speak

takes occasion to animadvert on and
oppose the proposition to submit the
question to the people at future pri-
mary, as to whom they wish for q. s.
Senator. 1t IN part says:
SIT the committee has the authority,
we should like to see it dispense with
the primary altogether for naming a
senatorial candidate, and leave the Sc
lection with The members of the legis-
lature on whom the constitution of
the United States places this duty,
then look carefully after the men elect
ed to the legislature.
It is right and proper to select candi-
dates for whom the people vote direct
ly, but to undertake to instruct legally
elected members of the legislature how
they shall vote, is not, wesubmit, with
in the province of anybody"
The people know their power and
they know their rights, they know they
have right to instruct Legislators az
much as they have a right to instruct
Presidential Electors. We do not vote
for presidents any more than we vote
for U. s. Senators, but we vote for
electors who have their orders what to
do. It is a waste of words to tell the
people of Virginia they cannot desig.
nate by a vote who they want for Sen.
ator, when they designate by exactly
such a vote who they want for presi.

people ia folly. We see why the News
does not want the question voted on.

amount would be made available for
that purpose at once. 1t was stated
on good authority that new stations
would be built at this place, at Clifton
Forge, Charlottesville, and at other
points along the Chesapeake and Ohio
railway, and Mr.. Lang suggested that
a committee be appointed to lay the
matter before the city council, who
would be asked to appoint like COM
mittee to act in conf with them
in trying to induce the railroad people
to erect a handsome station here in
place of the old and homely affair now
| in use. Messrs. H. G.. BraxtOn, j. M.
SPOTS, and 81. L. Lang were appointed
on this COMMITTEES.
Another important matter consider
ed was the adoption of the following
resolution:
whereas, an appeal is being made
to the boards OF trade and other com
mercial bodies In the cities of Virginia
to lend their aid In the effort to raise
a fund for the erection of a state build
ing at the st. Louis Exposition;
i Resolved, That we endorse the OBJ
u ject as worthy the support OF our peo
