Every Democrat will vote Demo
cratic ticket. There is but one Demo-
cratic ticket in Virginia. The National
Democratic Committee have ssuelched
the pretended Democratic ticket.
Mahoneites gsay, don't vote for
Echols because he was willing 10 vote
for Wickham over Malone" Whenever
they say that to you ask them, did
not John Paul vote for republican
negro over a one legged Confederate
soldier? Did not John Paul vote for
five republican judges over democrats
Malone and his followers refused to
help nominate a candidate for President,
and now they refuse to support the
electors in this State who aided IN max
| ing a nomination. They would not
lead in the beginning, ard now they will
not follow.
When you find that the Garfield tick
ct has on il, the name OF john Paul,is il
sot very evident that there has been an
alliance with the Republicans? Do you
wish to vote for man that is voted for
by the negroes, because he favored the
repeal of the capitation tax qualification?
Do you wish to have the tax placed up
on your property, that John Paul takes
of of the negroes of Eastern Virginia !?
These are questions for every voter to
consider.
GEN. Malone has found 1t necessary
to visit Philadelphia again. This time
he was accompanied by John S. Wise,
and V. D. Groner. Wonder if they
vii, be able to ward off the effects OF the
address of the National Democratic
Committee.
How do you like the faithful alliance,
Garfield and Arthur aud John Paul
Read the badges that float lazily from
the bosoms of the negroes of this dis
trict.
If you want Your school money to
be taken to Eastern Virginia to educate
the children of negroes, who pay no
school tax, vote for John Paul, the
man who is in favor of removing the
capltation tax qualification.
If You want to vote for true friend
of the Public Schools. vote for Judge
Allen. The reports circulated by 9TH
of Julyar emissaries that he is opposed
| to the public schools are lies and those
that circulate them, know that they
are false.
A cinnamon colored negro with
glasses spent a short time IN this place
and now the negroes are parading the
streets with large badges upou which is
printed Garfield and Arthur and John
Paul.
How do Virginia democrats relish the
idea Of their selfish sQuabble being the
occasion, as it Is. OF delight to the
radicals and negroes, aud the fOunda-
ton of the hope for the election OF q
radical President? Did the fathers Of
the men engaged in this squabble ever
imagine that their sons would he parties
to such an absurd!y disgraceful affair
How ungrateful! After Mahoneite
speakers had told the people of Shenan-
doah that they were Democrats, for
Malone lie issue that silly address in
which he does not claim that his ticke
is democratic. Poor fellows. Drown
ing men will grasp at straws.
What wonderful effect The Demo
cratic address of recognition had upon
the Mahoneltes! The Richmond Wing
turned the Virginia coat OF arms upside
down, dated his paper back one hou'-
and years and wrote an editorial com"
mencing, "Recognition, Bah !" On
the Sd of November, he can lnyert his
column rules aud write another cdito-
rial headed, "Readjustment, Bah"
If the Democratic address ofrecogni-
ton created such confusion 10 the
Richmond Wing Office that they turned
the Virginia Coat of Arms up side down
and dated their paper, Friday, $780,"
how much dropping off among the
honest democrats when they see where
Malone has tried to lead them.
The Democrats of Shenandoah will
not be sold out. They intend TO vote
the Democratic ticket.
