HOW JUDGE SIMS STANDS
IN HIS HOME COUNTY

Mr.. AbsalOm Waller, OF Spotsylvania
county. was nominated by the Republl-
can convention held in fredericksburg
on September 10Th ~ their candidate
for the State Senate i'm the Thirteenth
District. We do not personally know
Mr.. Waller. and will not question the
wisdom OF his party in making this nom
nation. But We do know the Democrat
ic nominee for the office, Judge +. W.
Sims. and we can cOnscientiously endorse
him as being eminently qualified in every
particular for representing this district in
the next Legislature. He is in the full
vigor of manhood, and his natural en-
dowments OF mind and heart have been
cultivated literally in the principles OF
legal and moral ethics. He possesses a
judicial turn Of mind in a high degree, az
his experience a. our hOnOred county
Judge does confirm in no uncertain testi-
monv. In the famous law suit OF Sui
phur Mines Company vs.. POtty's Execu-
tors he figured prominently as counsel
for the defendants. Tbs intricate battle
over law problems brought him into
notOriety a. a cOgent reasOner, and his
ANALYTICAL turn OF mind established his
reputation as an able expounder OF con-
stitutional as well "a statutory law.
Justice Stephen j. Field says that the
distinction between a judicial and legis-
lative act il well defined. The one deter
m;nes what the law is, aud what the
rights are with reference to transactions
already bad; the other prescribes what
the law shall be in future cases arising
under it," Judge Sims mind has had
considerable training in Interpreting the
genesis of ourcommOn law, and in render
ing decisions in knotty cases, which en-
phasized his ability. He reached distinc-
ton as competent and just Judge, not
orly in the courts OF Louisa, but also in
the higher courts OF Richmond city, when
chosen temporary Judge by the Governor
ofYirqinia. His literary attachments and
rs constant application to the study OF
law and its principles are a guarantee
that he will give earnest and Intelligent
Thought to the interests of his district.
And. unIer the stress OF adopting new
laws to harmonic with the provisions
of our new constitution, we predict that
in such a crisis the sound Judgment and
legal acumen OF Judge Sims will be OF
invaluable service in the committee room
and in the legislative hall, when advocat-
ing upon his feet the justice or injustice
of the pending question.
Louisa county will have just cause to
boast OF her two representatives in the
next General Assembly. Judge Sims sits
in the upper house with his judicialermine
laid aside and unspotted, is clothed with
the senatorial toga to watch end fight
for wholesome legislation for his whole
district.-Mineral Mirror.

AGRICULTURAL FAIRS

The agricultural fair at Roanoke is a
great success both in point OF exhibits
and attendance We Judge from our cor
respondents account, however, that the
exhibit of men and women is far better
even than the splendid display OF live
stock and agricultural products. We
congratulate the enterprising city OF the
mountains upon this stroke Ofenterprise.
We wish Richmond could have such a
fair. and we are not at all sure but what
the old State fair should be revived. 1t
was in its day a great institution. and
was the means OF bringing To Richmond
many fine products OF the farm and large
numbers of Virginia men and women.
The Horse Show is a splendid substl-
tute, but why could We not have both
and have them in cOmbination'-Times-
Dispatch.
Richmond can reach a successful
fair nearer than Roanoke. Freder-
icksburg has just closed one OF the
most successful fairs held here for the
past twenty years, besides asplendid
horse show held in July. We can fur
nish both fair and horse show for the
Richmond people if they will comeup,
and will give them a cordial welcome
and a real good time.

THE SUCCESS OF THE FAIR

The 10th annual fair OF the Rap
pahannock Valley Agricultural and
Mechanical Society has Just closed,
and the most pessimistic OF our peo-
pie cannot pronounce it other than a
great success. In many OF its de
partments it surpassed previous eX-
hibitiOns and certainly in the num-
Der of persons inattendance it sur
passed any previous fair held 10y the
society. 1t is gratifying to know
that the people of this community
continue to take an active interest
in the fair They enjoy the exhibits;
they enjoy the racing; they enjoy the
balloon ascension. and above all,
they enjoy the social intercourse.
On the second day of the fair it
was estimated that about 5000
people were present. and while every
one seemed to be enjoying the occa-
sion there was practically no dis
order or rowdyism. The racing was
probably not up to the previous
standards, owing to the small num-
Der of horses entered in the various
events. on account of which a num-
Der of the races were declared of. but
in most every event the finishes were
close and exciting. The exhibits in
the ladies' department were up to
the usual high standard. as were
those OF the stock department, while
the exhibitions in the farm product
department probably fell a little
short of sOmeprevious records. The
poultry exhibit far surpassed that
of any previous fair, and numbers OF
persons from outside the State, who
have seen large poultry exhibits i'll
other States. expressed the opinion
that it was equal to any they had
seen anywhere. We congratulate the
management upon the success OF
the fair. 1t is a great institution
for this section of Virginia.
