WHO'S ROLAND Z. CHASE?

People of this section will ask,
who is Mr.. Chase. the Republican
candidate for the Senate of Virginia
from this district? The question is
proper one. The people have right
TO know who the man is, seeking this
honorable position iii this State
Who is Mr.. Chaser
He is a lawyer of some local rep
utation. He is said 10 be careful,
painstaking attorney, but man of
mediocre ability. Mr.. Chase is now
or has been for long time, local
attorney for the Chesapeake and Ohio

Mr.. Chase gets i'm he'll have to
climb in at Il window, or some other
way, and he'll have IA warm time
after he gets in.
Ii may not be out OF place 10 in
quire, in this connection, how Mr..
Chase stood on the question of the
railroad charters for Buchanan and
Dickinson counties when that inpor-
lant matter was fought out few
years ago i'm the General Assembly.
Mr.. Wickham. rle attorney represent

The Nomination

The action of the Republican con-
Nenion i'm nominating AR. Deskins
Green for the House OF Delegates, at
time when theditsrict needs special
legislation ON the road question, and
when every part of the state is arous-
ell over the decadeance and misman-
agement OF the school system, callsfor
severe criticism. Mr.. Green is good
citizen, but the very widest stretch
of the Imagination would not put
him in the category of Lawmakers.
1t has been the bane rs well rs the
laughing stock Of our system of poll
ties that men are nominated To Office
regardless of their qualification, re-
CARELESS OF everything under heaven
but their slavish subserviency To the
demands of one party, or the other.
We shall await with anxious expect
ancy for the better sense OF citizens
