Then tho club, through the miserable managoment of Captain Powell, fell upon evil days.

There are just three things loft: To rmse money for debts and strengthening the club, to sell the club, or to disband it. It looks now as if thie dishanding of the club wero inevitabla.

T consider that now for the first time Virginia republicans have an excellent prospect of success, and that the differences of opinion which have heretofore injured the chances of republi- can supremacy 1n that state have boeu wiped out, Colonel Dudley’s idea in this respect is heartily seconded not only by General Ma- tione, but by the other republican leaders in the Old Dominfon. General Brady, who was to-day appointed cno of the internal revenue colleetors for the state, was en- thusiastic in Lis remarks concornng the re publican prospects there, Genoral Mahonoe, who appeared in a neglige costume of white seorsucker and his customury sombre robo, said with a smilo: ““The hatchet has been buried so deep that its handlo is sticking out in China, and tho republican party of Virginia to-day is in a Position to win.” The work is indeed a most stupondous one and is by far far the most important political movement which has been made for many years, Virginia has more republicans than democrats within her bordors to-duy, but the trouble has been tor several years ‘that tho factions have succeedea fn fighting one an- other to such an extent that sucoess was im« possivle.

If the business indercsts of Now York really took hold of this thing with tho idea of carrying it through, it is admitted that Washington’s chances would be somewhat slim, While Wuslungton is the capital of the greatest nation 1n the continent discov- ered by Columbus, a for that reason is the best possible place for holding the exposi- tion, it is aduntted that New York has all the advantages which come frou the vast business interests centered there. Now York City would probably be benefitted to far greater extent by having the exposition held within her limits than she would if it was organized in Wushington, and this will probably induce the chambers of ¢ ree Loards ~ of trade and other asso ciations of busiuess interests to sub seribe awds the funds for the os of the show.
