EUROpE's TROUBLES.

Germany is bullying France over the
Moroccan trouble, and war between
them is not altogether out of the ques-
ton, as France feels she is in the right
and refuses to knuckle.
Events in Russia cannot be compre-
hended by the world at large A con-
dition now exists throughout one-sixth
of the whole earth that dwarfs the
bloody scenes of the French Revolution
The strikers have taken up armed
resistance throughout the empire, and
a state of civil war prevails. Some
provinces have set up rebel governments,
while others have been quelled with
bloody hand.
In one place property worth hundred
million dollars is put to the torch within
a day; in another 5000 people are slain
and Ia, 900 killed within few hours,
and Is, 900 are reported killed or wound
ed on another day.
The Grand Dukes, reactionary,
blood-thirsty gang, have almost gained
control over the Cars mind, and Count
Witte may have to step down and out
Already the Car has been induced to
order his troops to sweep through all
the provinces and Unfortunately
slaughter resisting peasants and mobs.
Neither sex nor age will be taken into
consideration in this merciless inhuman
hunt for human beings.

distress had received helpful friendly

rade or some member of his family so
favored. There it was business man
whom Mr.. Pace tided over a close place
years ago. There, again, it was a wo-
man who in times gone by knew his
bounty. These things were brought up
and told in the shops, in the homes, the
clubs and Offices. Consequently he de-
veloped spontaneously strength which
astonished his most sanguine friends,
the most experienced political prophets
and himself. There is no doubt as to
his capacity and fitness for the place,
but other men as capable and efficient
and as trustworthy offered. His kindly
deeds done and forgotten by himself,
the substantial help he gave to so many
fifteen, twenty and thirty years ago,
rose up from the obscurity of time and
crowded to the polls for him, giving him
majority beyond all calculation.
Judging from our own experience
and observation, we think more kindly
of human nature, perhaps, than most
people do. We believe the great ma
jority of men and women remember
kindnesses and but await the opportu-
nifty to prove that gratitude lives, and
that the vast majority love to do good
rather than i'll and are ready to help
others as they can. It is very rarely,
however, that an opportunity such as
this comes or is so beautifully and gen
orally used. 1t is not often that bread

POLITICAL.

McClellan's majority over Hearst for
Mayor of New York settled by the courts,
is 3,468. The figures differ but little
from the first count.
The Democratic muddle is coming
around all right. Sharpe Williams and
our Virginia Jim Hay have shaken
hands and made up. Referring to the
fight within the party (now thing of
the past), the Newport News Time
Herald says: Certainly, the Demo-
cratic party can never be more than a
mass of discordant elements, pitifully
impotent to legislate or to mould legis-
lation, unless it determine to submit to
the will of the majority
1t is understood that Congressman
Swanson will resign his seat in the
House of Representatives the 1st of Feb
ruary. Mr.. Swanson Immediately after
his nomination for Governor notified the
Democratic Executive Committee of his
Congressional district that he was ready
to tender his resignation as.Congress-
man, but the committee advised against
the step and requested that he hold his
seat in Congress as long as possible.
His resignation has practically been at
the call of the committee ever since, but
the committee has thought best in the
interest of the district to insist that Mr..
Swanson's valuable services and ripe
experience in Congress should be re-
tanned to the district until his duties as
Governor should take him to Richmond
Mr.. Swanson viii be inaugurated Gov
ernor on the 1st of February, and it is
hoped he will not resign from Congress
till that date. -Danville Register.

Wednesday at noon the gavels Of
Speaker Cardwell and President Wick
ham (of the Senate) fell and a new
Legislature in new and handsome
capital started, to come under the
wire some sixty days hence. 1t will be
a very busy body, touching matters of
vital interest to the people of Virginia,
and We advise all our people to keep up
with the doings of Virginia's Legis-
lature
Senator Sale, of Norfolk, will intro
duce a bill to redistrict the Congressional
districts of the State. In the First
district, the counties of Caroline, Spot
sywania and the city of Fredericksburg
are taken out and put in the eighth.
The counties of Elizabeth City, James
City, York, Warwick and the cities of
Newport News and Williamsburg are
added to the First.
ITO close all saloons in the State at

bly,. The Anti-Saloon League of Vir-
ginia is behind the movement.

FISH AND OYSTER NOTES.

The government has extended the
time to February 18th, for the removal
of shells from the channel in Mosquito
Creek by Wheaton Packing Co.
One of the oyster packers at Weems
was opening his place of business just
before sunrise last Saturday when a
canoe with a colored man came to his
wharf and offered his oysters for sale.
He had about eleven bushels. They
were bought at so cents bushel, far
below value. They were deep water
plants, and the time of day that they
were sold and the price paid make it
appear that they were stolon. The
buyer did know the man, but expressed
the opinion that the oysters belonged
to some planter up Carriers Creek and
that they appeared 10 have been tonged
up that night.
CAPT. MARSH SUED FOR $4,000.
w. j. Gallagher, the Philadelphia
sailor who says he was detained and
beaten aboard the oyster boat Ethel
Ruth while in Virginia. waters, through
his Attorney, John Lamb, has entered
suit in the u. S. District Court for SO
600 against Capt. VIM. Marsh, of
Northumberland county, master of the
vessel.
There are FIVE counts in the declara-
tion. Gallagher charges that the
cruelty alleged took place while plying
in the waters of the Coan and Wicom-
leo Rivers, Northumberland county
Here are the five counts:
False Imprisonment.
Assault.
Violation of Section 461I Revised
United States Statutes, prohibiting
''fiogging'
Violation of section 4572, providing
for, furnishing safe and warm rooms.
Violation section 5347, providing for,
furnishing food.
He says in his bill that as result of
the treatment accorded him by the de-
PENDANT, he was under the care of a
physician for some weeks.
The criminal charges in the case
against Capt. Marsh are now before the
Federal Court at Alexandria, where
Capt. Marsh is, accompanied by his
counsel, c. S. Towles.
FISHERIES CONSOLIDATED.
An important meeting of those en-
gagged in the menhaden fisheries was
held at Reedville recently. The Morris
Fisher Company, holding controlling
interest in three factories and operat-
ing seven steamers, decided to consoli-
date, and hereafter their home plant,
by charging accommodations, will man.
age the entire business.
On Thursday of last week the stock
holders of The Snow-Fallin Guano Co.,
of Mia, and the Haynie Brothers Co.,
of Reedville, met at Heathsville and de-
cided to consolidate under the name of
The Haynie-Snow Co., capitalized at
$50, 900. The consolidated works will
be at the old John A. Haynie site, near
Reedville, all the machinery and every
thing of value to be removed there
from The Snow-Fallin works at Mia.
They will fish two steamers.
Rumor has it, from very reliable
source, that the syndicate" known as
the American Fisheries Co., has sold
put to the Wharton Fisheries Co., their
plants at Promised Land and elsewhere
in the north.

1t is said that governor-elect Swan
son has brother w. Mcdonald Lee of
the Irvington CITIZEN slated for chair
man of the state board of fisheries. If
the latter will send barrel of Kappa
hannock's best in the shell up this way
occasionally we guarantee to withdraw
all opposition and to prove that the
governor could not get better man. =
Staunton Dispatch.
There is a well grounded belief that
w. Mcdonald Lee, of Lancaster county,
will be made chairman of the State
Board of Fisheries when Mr. Swanson
becomes governor. Mr.. Lee is editor
OF one of the best papers in the State,
the VIRGINIA CITIZEN. His appoint
ment would be wellmerited. -Farmville
Herald.
We hope this honor will be conferred
on MIR. Lee, both on his own account
and because it would be for the best in
terest of the State. -Harrisonburg
Daily Times.
The CITIZEN has felt delicacy
heretofore in abiding to prognosti-
cations as to its editors probable
selection by Mr.. Swanson when be
comes to make up his list of ap-
pointees, but we are not unmindful
or unappreciative of the very many
complimentary illusions voluntarily
made by the press throughout the
State. The foregoing are the most
recent, and prompt us to make this
public acknowledgment of grateful
ness.

given an opportunity to speak, and he
again confessed his guilt, and offered a
fervent prayer to God for forgiveness.
He was then drawn into the air to de
