lack GRIFFIN. OvERSEER.

The Republican papers are raising a
howl because Of the nomination by
the Democrats os Buckingham county,
Of Jack Griffin, a cOlored man, for
overseer OF the poor Griffin is said to
be worthy colored man, and wealthy.
Any one familiar with Republican
politics in Virginia, would have sup
posed that this action OF the Democrats
wosld have been applauded. If the
Republicans professed love for the
colored man and their oft-asserted
desire to elevate him, Is genuine
why raise a howl whenever one OF
them is promoted?
The Republicans howl if Democrats
discriminate against worthless negroes,
and howl again if they recognize
worthy ones. So, we cant please the
champions OF liberal government in any
way.
If Democrats recognize merit and
worth in a coloIed man who will con-
denim them? The truth gradually
comes out that the Democrats are the
only true friends the negroes have in
the South, though lot Of fool negroes
won't see it. A good thing it would be
IL few inflamatory negro papers in
this country were suppressed.

lily gazed breathless at this strange
tragedy of the air. Then they went back
to the sick room to tell of the terrible
struggle for life they had just witnessed.
1t did not occur to them that under their
very eyes a more terrible, more pathetic
struggle was going on daily.
There can be nothing more pitiful
than the struggle the consumptive
makes against disease. The greatest
help in this struggle is gained by the
use of DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. It cures obstinate coughs, weak
and bleeding lungs, emaciation, and
other ailments which il neglected or
unskillfully treated find fatal termina-
ton in consumption.

This medicine is IA recent discovery for

DIR. Towards specific has been so re-
mnrkably successful in curing conStipa

that DIR jackson is willing to return the

give relief.

ARE THEY ELIGIBLE p?

The Republican conventions ut Cedar
Bluff and Richlands nomina ted several
candidates that are now running for
the various county offices i'm this
county. The Barksdale law requires
candidates for al county or district
Offices TO file with the county clerk
within 30 days after any caucus con
vention or primary, sworn statement
OF all expenses incurred in securing
said nomination. Some seven or
eight nominations were made and only
one candidate filed his statement.
The thirty days have passed and no
statement filed. If these candidates are
elected cah they qualify under the
Barksdalc Pure Election Law? This
question will bc watched with much in
tcrCSt.

TO DEMOCRATS.

For the first time i'm almost gen
GRAFTON, county and State officers are
elected AT the same time this year.
This fact ought TO, and no doubt will,
bring ont Il larger vote than otherwise
would be polled.
Every Democrat, from every hamlet
and corner of the county and district.
ought To vote this time. There is no
excuse now, but every conceivable
season why every Democrat should
vote and see that every other Democrat
votes-take nothing for granted. Vote
yoIr ticket straight.

THE LAST CALL.

The few days remaining before the
election are being actively spent by the
candidates and their friends in seeing
the voters, and making as sure as pos
sible the success OF the election next
Tuesday. The campaign in the State
at large has been an unusually quiet
one. Fewer speeches have been made
by representative men than in any
contest for Yeas. There is every in
dication, however, that a full vote will
be polled, and that the Democrats will
have safe majority in both Houses
next session. The campaign In this
county has been an active one on the
part Of the candidates. The people
generally, have either been seen per
sonally or been communicated with
and everything indicates IA full vote on
next Tuesday.

THE BIBLE, PUBLIC SCHOOLS AND
POLITICS.

The question as 20 the use OF the
Bible in the public schools has bobbed
up again. The trouble is, the public
schools are political machines i'm maLy
states, and everybody knows that
politicians steer clear OF religious
questions and discussions for fear of
losing votes, of course. IL has been
sugggested that the question OF using
the Bible in the schools be left TO the
communities To decide IL this is to
continue christian nation, founded as it
was upon the teachings OF the Bible,
then the Bible ought TO be read i'm the
public schools, if anywhere. 1t can be
read without being taught, and read in
a nOn-sectarian manner, and If any
body objects they can leave, or set up
Il school OF their own. The Bible in the
schools cant hurt any body. Schools
without it will be inlidel in the end.
