States. Three wears before pcopi"
of the Old Dominion by 4 popular
vote had eliminated carpctbagglSm
and elected q democrat Governor
and CongrcsSmen by several thou
sand majority. On that occasion
the spirit which animated the Jews
in rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem
WAS in evidence-every man had de-

ism was followed in so short Il time
w one of carelessneSs, which brought
about republican, triumph IN Nlr-

The democrats lost the state again

>capitation taxes. The ignoring OF
this law is having its effect at pre-
sent and presagcS danger and all
should take heed.
1t is Il we'll known fact that only
one third of the >uffragans of this
state qualify themselves to vote.
Some sad exhibits OF this no care
spirit are often made in our OWE
