Be Sure You're Right Then DO Ahead.

II the pending legislative contest
shall be honestly conducted. and shall
show that Peabody received major
ity OF the honest vote, Adams should
be unseated and Peabody given the
place awarded him by the voters OF
the state. This should be done re-
gardless OF the effect which such a
course might have on the reputation
and business of the state. Judging
the future by the past there may be a
tendency to arbitrarily seat Peabody
by force of artisan power when the
examination OF the ballot boxes does
not warrant such action. Such 4
course would be an outrage. The
Democracy has with the utmost bra
zenucss stolen senator's. but that does
not Justify the Republican party in
stealing a governor.
In considering the hazards involved
in unlawiully seating Peabody il will
be well for the legislature TO keep in
mind the popular vote. Twenty
counties, every one Of which WIS Gag
ried for the Republican candidate for
president, gave total plurality for
the Roosevelt clcctor OF 9.3st, and
thesr same twenty-five counties, every
one pf which was carried b" the Dem
ucrlt candidate for governor. gave 4
total plurality for Adams Of 9.Dp7.
In the remaining counties OF the
state Peabody ran far behind Roosr-
Welt in every county, and the total net
change against Peabody as compared
with Roosevelt was 4i-4nl, OF which
56Gn1 was outside oi Denver.
In orr own county oi Otcro Pea
body ran IIss votes behind Roosc-
welt. Concceding that our popular
president ran 800 ahead OF his ticket
we yet have Peabody 1000 in the rear
IN not very populous Republican
corntyl
The legislature should keep these
| figures in mind and be dead sure tina,
Peabody has majority OF the homes,
vote before so declaring, Any other
course will be a serious damage to the
Republican party.

Norfolk Wants the sewall's
Point Customs Office.
IT IS IN THIS DISTRICT NOW
New Railway Terminal Will be Under
the Local Collector Unless Chance
is Made by the Treasury Depart.
ment-Reasons Given.

Norfolk people are raising the
question of whether Sewall's Point.
after it has become the terminus for
the Tidewater Railway. will be in the
customs district OF that city or in the
district Of Newport News.
At present Sewall's Point is in the
district Of this port and. as far as is
known here, nothing has been done
toward having a change made
by The treasury department. II
such movement is started
it will Of course be started il
Norfolk, and it is believed that it will
meet with opposition, not only from
people on this side Of the Roads, but
upon the part OF shipping interests
also.
1t is arguo, that the geographical
location OF the proposed new railway
terminal will cause the treasury dc
partmcnt to make the change OF its
own volition. On the other hand, Ship
ping men here claim that it would be
much more convenient for masters OF
vessels and all parties concerned to
have the place in this district
Some people who have no purticulal
interest in either Norfolk or this city
predict that Scwal's Point will be
