LET Them Take Their Medicine.

~ give our TeducTS an evidence
of the spirit prevailing affairs at
Richmond now and since the be-
ginning of the present legislative
session, We cite the following clip
ping which appeared in the press
dispatches on the 18th:
Speaker Cardwell's friends are
up in arms against the criticisms
made concerning his committee
appointments. They declare that
in the selection of X. f. Byrd for
chairman of Courts of Justice he
was looking to efficiency. and Sc
cured perhaps the ablest man for
the position in the House, and
that in replacing Capt r. +. Lee,
Jr. he was not breaking precedent,
but that Speaker Ryan and
Speaker Saunders, his predecessors
had done the same thing. A prac-
tical politician, discussing the
question of there being politics in
the selection, declared that 90 per
cent. of the legi> lafure we're Martin
men and tn" other 10 per cent. who
opposed him might as well take
their n,cdicine. and if'thcy don't
Ike it they can take it back to the
people. >
OF course the 10 per cent. of the
members OF the Legislature will
take their medicine, the 80 per cent.
Of Martin alen will MAKE them Ike
1t, and they should bc made to take
1t. IL should he crammcd down
their threats until they can swallow
no more. Ad nauseum. sick =
a dog. no expression in the Ian
guage indeed should be quite strong
enough To fully describe the condi-
tion OF the patient after DR.. Mar
tin gets through with him. The
Democrats of the State deserve it.
They sat like bumps on logs and
. let the machine capture. nearly
every voting precinct in the State,
they allowed them to nominate so
per cent or more of all the mem
bers of the General Assembly,
they thus allowed them 10 capture
every judicial position they desired,
they allowed them to so arrange
matters that they can we'll nigh
dictate every Congressman. and as
for the lesser fry they will be
named during the entire period of
the present political millennium.
In a little while position after po-
Sition will be taken from the peo-
pie and the holders be appointed
by some other power. Already is
the office of Commissioner of the
Revenue about TO pass into the
hands of the judiciary, which is
not only reflection on the people
of the State, but a reflection on
popular government. The Judges
are elected by the Legislature, then
they appoint the Commissioners
of the Revenue, so that that Office
will have no relation to our sup
posed methods of government. but
will be on a plane with Russian
modes, and from this beginning
others will be far more so, if things
continue as some declare they will.
But they will take their medicine
like little men. They will possibly
lick the hand that smites them

DIR. Stires IN his sermon said:
This is one of the great occa-
slons OF. our lives, for we are met
to honor the memory of rare
man. | do not speak to you of
him principally as a citizen, states
man or soldier, for the mere record
OF his deeds is far more eloquent
than any praise of ours could be.
1t is of the man | think at this
hour. Was he entitled to be call
ed great He was distinguished
by courage without raShneSs. hv
wisdom without pride. by gentle
ness without weakness. by patience
without heedlesSness. and by JUS
tice which always leaned toward
mercy. He honored man. lac trust
ed man. and to every man he was
ready to give his time, his sub
stance, his heart.
The North gives him unstintcd
honor. The South even in her
grief Is proud of her ever loyal
son. Cuba, for whose freedom ne
fought, sobS out her grief across
the waves, and the whole world
pauses for moment today to de-
clare that this was indeed a man.
Let there be little uf sadness
here. We are not coIhmemorating
a defeat; it is the victory of life
the triumph of a noble character. "
