EXPOSITION APPOINTMENTS.

Capt Morton, OF Staunton, has been
appointed Press Representative from
Virginia, TO the Worlds Fair at St.
Louis. From appearances. the reason
for Mr. Morton's appointment may be
found In the fact, that there was no
newspaper man In the last Legislature.
Judging from the appointments OF the
Commissioners, members OF the last
Legislature have formed trnst on this
job. Out OF seven appointments pro-
vided for in the bill, five OF them have
gone 10 members and officers OF the
Legislature. Why not make it unani-
nous? IL we are TO have an exhibit at
StLeuis worthy OF the State the peo-
pie outside OF small circle represent
ed by few obscure members OF the
Legislature, men who have had but
very limited opportunities for informa-
ton of practical nature. in the de
partments which they are asked to re-
presPnt. There are practical mtelli-
gent men In the great coalflelds OF
Southwest Virginia, who know not only
coal when they see it, but who are
familiar with all the deposits, aud with
every mode OF handling and preparing
it, also, who are eminently suited to fill
position on this commission.
There were many of of our people
who were not in favor OF the $50.
appropriation in the first place, belicv
ing 1t would not prove a profitable in
vestment, and these same people will
not be convinced that they were mis-
taken by the seemingly narrow course
the commissioners are pursuing, in not
reaching out into every part Of the
state, and bringing available and valu-
able influence to their assistance.
And, 10y the way, is it not straining
the constitution just little, at least,
for these members OF the Legislature
10 be appointed to or accept additional
offices while still members OF the Leg
islature? The Constitution says: mo
member, during the term for which he
shall have been elected, shall be ap-
pointed orSaected TO any civil Office of
profit in the state except Offices to be
filed by election by the people" These
commissioners, we believe, get 500. 90
per month and expenses. What is in

IS TT TRUE DEMOCRACY?
Communicated

Mr.. Elf the Democrats OF the
county are holding their own, as we
know they are, since the elimination OF
the negro vote, the Democrats OF the
town OF Tazewell have at least. a small
majority OF the votes OF that town. II
this be true why do not the Democrats
OF the town fight for their rights?
When the town officers were 20 be
elected a short time ago. the Demo
Gratis made no efforts whatever. They
simply folded their hands and said
'walk In gentlemen. Why Is this? Is
it because the Democrats have no men
capable OF filling these Offices. or is it
that they prefer Twin g under a Repub-
Gcan rule? We do not believe it is
either, still We can not understand why
such things are submitted TO without a
word.
Now, this fall, at our county elections.
the very men who so willingly submit
to Republican rule in town, will be urg-
Ing the county people to make a hard
fight, which we expect to do, but our
friends should remember, that the con-
troll OF the political situation OF the
county is made easier where the towns
and cities are controlled. Until the
town Democrats learn to fight censure
OF their county brethren is decidedly
bad taste.

the promised appointment to the Sup

MARyLAND'S DISCHARGE.

According 20 a Baltimare correspOn-
dent thousands or dollars Were spent
In the buying OF votes In the recent
primary election in Queen Annes
county, Md. The contest was between
the Democratic organization and the
anti-organizatiOn forces. The votes
began selling at $40 and $50. and the
price finally went up TO S75 and$10O
Each side seemed TO have plenty OF
money, and il was used without stint.
As between ballot box stuffing and
Wholesale bribery, we believe that the
latter Is more demoralizing. 1t is mean

ballot box, to steal that which ought TO
be precious TO every man, TO rob n man
OF the vote which the law permits him
TO cast, but in this case comparatively
Few men are morally affected. Voters
are swindied, but they are not injured
IN their characters by the cheat. They
may not even know that they have
been robbed. But i'm the case of bri-
berry every voter bought is made 20 sell
his manhood and forever thereafter to
hold himself in contempt. There is no
surer way OF debauching the voter and
demoralizinS the suffrage than bribery
in an election.
But while this sort Of thing may go
on in Maryland we are thankful to say
that here in Virginia il money is used
