WHO IS THE NOMINEE?

Who is the nominee for Commissioner
of Agriculture-Brown or Koiner? We
do not believe a man in Virginia can
give positive answer. Browns early
lead was rapidly reduced-he lost still
more on the official counts thus far re-
ported-and Koiner showed unexpected
strength in slowly-reporting counties.
But what is the result? The election
was held fifteen days ago, but its out
come is as much in doubt as it was at
midnight of election day.
This state of affairs calls for some ex-
PLANTATION. No matter how close the
vote, the figures should have been
known within a week, and the official
returns should have been reported from
all the counties some days since.
The entire situation may be above re-
proach. Unexpected difficulties may
have been met with in gaining a final
count-a thousand things may have hap
pened. But what has happened, and
what Is the explanation of this long de-
lay?
We do not believe that any answer
can be given to these questions at this
late day that will satisfy the people. If
Brown is defeated, after his splendid
run, some of his supporters will con-
clude that he has been counted out. "
II Koiner loses, his supporters will
want to know what became of his lead.
All of this will furnish fine sport to the
Republicans, and will give them de-
hghtful morsel for campaign rumina-
ton.
II the primary is not to be legalized.
the State Committee should adopt some
rule that will put an end to this uncer-
tainty 1t should enjoin on the county
committees to report their returns by
given day, or else to forfeit their vote

Dispatch is at this late day beginning to
take notice.
Our contemporary wants to know,
what has happened and what is the
explanation of this long delayf" The
answer is easily given-Trickeryl The

fraud, have many and all kinds of tricks,
which they use as occasion demands.

NOT A PROGRESSIVE EUCHRE PARTY.

The Richmond News Leader has
jumped on the Page Courier for COM
planning about the increased expenses
Of the State Government and the fail
ure of the Democratic party to reduce
taxation in Virginia. The News Leader
says:
Here is the Page Courier complain
ing that since the adoption of the>6ew
constitution the taxes collected and
spent In Virginia have amounted to
$z,OOO, 900 more than in the six or seven
years before. Also it means of the Gre
alton of new Offices and the increase in
salaries and that there has been no re-
duction of taxation
Now let the Page Courier or some
other Republican authority come down
to brass tacks and details. Let them
tell US what unnecessary offices have
been created under Democratic admin
istrations since the adoption of the new
constitution. Let them tell US exactly
what Offices now existing they would
abolish and what salaries now paid they
would reduce.
The one possible claim the Repuh-
can party used to have on the common
sense and enterprise of the people of
the State was that it was the party of
progress; and the State wants pro-
gress." :
The Republican party in Virginia still
justly claims to be a party of progress,
and as such it now puts itself before
the people with a well defined progress
i've platform of principles. But the
Republican party in this State is not
Progressive Euchre party, and does not
wish to buncoe the people as the Demo
cratic party has done.
The News Leader knows very well
that its party practieed gross deception
upon the people in the making Of a new
constitution. The primal cause that
was urged for changing the organic law
OF the State was to get rid of the "Un-
derwood Constitution, to reduce the
number Of office-holders existing under
that constitution, and, consequently,
greatly reduce the expenses Of State
and county governments. Our Rich
mond contemporary will not deny this
If 1T does, we will invoke the Hon.
Eugene Withers, of Danville, and the
Hon. Carter Glass, of Lynchburg, who
were the most constant agitators and
advocates OF a new constitution, as wit
nesses. And we will also offer in evil
dence the files of the leading Democrat
ic newspapers in Virginia.
The News Leader admits that the
army of office-holders has been greatly
and that government expenses,
State, county and city, have been enor- q,
mously increased. 1t tries to avoid the {
charge Of deception to which the Demo {
cratic party is amenable and wrong 4
done the people by the creation Of 80 ,
many new Offices, by asking Repubh- 7
;ans what offices are unnecessary. All I
he records are in the hands of the {
Democrats, we might say in the hands 7
# the Democratic Machine. Hence the c
question OF the News Leader is idle and q
rivolous- We may with safety, how d
yer. declare, that many of these new (
fiiees have besn created to supply the q

TRENTON. Feb. 9.--The very rare
distinction of being voted the privilege
of the floor and being invited to make
an address was voted to Miss Marion
Baker, the charming little daughter of
Assemblyman James Baker, of Hud-
son, by the Assembly last night.
The little lady had come to the ses-
sion with her father when the unusual
honor was thrust upon her. Without
a tremor she rose beside her father and
in a clear, bright ole and with a
happy smile, said;
Your kindness makes me a beggar
in giving thanks. 1t seems but yester-

Peter Vredenburgh's House bill No. 16,
which would let National Guard officers
retire voluntarily at 81 and retire them
arbitrarily at Ga, came up on third read
ing. Vredenburg, in its interests, said
there wasn't a regiment in the State fiji
to respond to a call to arms.
What we need is a thorough reor-
ganization of the National Guard. New
blood is needed" he said. He said there
We're more general staff officers here
than in any other State in the Union,
and that if his bill didn't pass, the en-
listed men would be in the minority
He recalled that the Second Regiment
could not get to Santiago in 1898 be-
cause its colonel wasn't physically fit
for service.
Even A~ssemblynan T. B. Gibbs. Civil
War veteran, voted for the bill, and it
passed the house with a prospect OF go
ing through the Senate. If it becomes a
law, Generals Campbell and Breintnall,
of Newark, and Colonel Freeman, OF
the First, will be subject to it's provis-
ions. The vote vas Sc to nothing for

Snuff this mixture through the ~nostrils
twice daily and immediate relief is expe,

Wants Five Senators Appointed
to Thoroughly Go Over
All Expenses.
TFrom a stan Correspondent

TRENTON, Feb. "a Senate COM
mittee to investigate every department
or institution of the State receiving
state funds, with a view to lessening
state expenses, is provided for in a
resolution presented this morning by
Senator Harry V. Osborne. of Essex.
The resolution reads as follows:
Whereas, the Governor has called
the attention of the Legislature in a
special message to the impending deficit
in the finances of the State and recon-
mended a repeal of the act appropriat-
ing certain moneys derived from the
tax on main stem railroad property
which is now applied to the support of
public schools of the State, or in the
alternative a direct tSate tax, and,
Whereas. 1t appears that the State
expenditures for various purposes have
increased at a greater ratio than the
States revenue during the past several
years, and,
Whereas, public opinion in the State
is strongly opposed to either a diversion
of any part of the funds now used for
school purposes or to a direct State tax,
and,
Whereas, before such measures
are resorted to, it should be DEM
onstrated that there Is no extrava-
gance or waste in the expenditure Of
tSate moneys in any department or in
~stitution where State money is used
now, therefore be it
Resolved, That a committee of Ave
senators be appointed by the president
Of the Senate to inquire into the finan-
cial administration of every depart
ment or institution of the taste which
is supported wholly OF In part by State
money and to consider the same and
make such recommendations to the
next session Of the Senate as shall
seem advisable, and be it further
Resolved, That the said committee
have the power to ummon and conpel
the attendance before them of such
persons as they may deem necessary
and proper to testify and any mem
Der of said committee shall have power
to administer an oath to any person
so summoned, and witnesses appearing
before said committee shall receive the
like fees as are now allowed witnesses
