About the time Congress adjourned
Mr.. Rixey, the able and efficient represen-
tatiye from this district, was advised. on
account of some slight throat trouble,

has been thus delayed but by the middle
of the month. be writes his friends, he
expects to be at home and to enter Nc
lively into the campaign. Mr. Rxey need
give himself no concern regarding politics

no interest whatever in the approaching
election and Mr. Henderson, his opponent
has already said that the time is not yet

than 81 80 a gallon for paint; give 'em

81 80 paint. He buys Legations ofea H.,
and pays 81 q day for labor-$3 day

He has to buy two gallons more of the
81 80 paint; and has two gallons left of
Devoe: II gallons 81 80, $1S; s gallons
$l.75; $14; 81 more for cheap" paint.
He pays 50 a gallon for painting: s
gallons $24; II gallons $3G; $12 more
for painting "cheap" paint.
He'll buy the less-gallon paint after
that. II people are slow to learn, it's
because they keep. on buying bone-meat.

CRITICISM OF ATLANTA.

The Richmond News-leader has
aroused. and not without cause, the
anger of nearly, ii not every. news
paper in Atlanta 10y its severe crlti-
cism of that city in connection with
the recent riot in which ten or twelN e
negroes were killed. This newspaper
had editorially expressed itself ON
that occurrence. cOndemning the
killing of these men, but recognizing,
as did nearly every other Southern
newspaper. the extreme prOVocat'on
under which the mob acted. when
our attention was attracted by an
editorial on the same subject in the
columns of our Richmond cOntem-
porary, for whose opinions we have
great respect and whose ideas often
coincide with ours. The editorial IN
question, however. and We say 1t III
friendly manner. was unnecessarily
severe and we believe absolutely un-
lust in it's criticism Of great South
ern municipality. We might have
expected such an utterance from a
partisan Northern newspaper OF the
type which delights in attacking the
South on any preteNt. hut never
from a newspaper published in the
capital of Virginia. Laying all else
aside the News-Leader subjected il
self to the suspicion OF Selling an OPP
portunity to attack Atlanta because
the Georgia city is commercial rival
of Richmond in reaching ont for
Southern trade. While We know
that such a suspicion does our con
temporary a grave injustice, yet we
submit that under the circumstances
it should have avoided placing itself
in such a position. Richmond and
Richmond newspapers should have
sympathized with Atlanta in her
hours CT trial and rendered Sympa-
thy. 1t would have been in better
taste than the arraignment of the
News-Leader.
