The President and the Wiz
ginia SenatOrship.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Ihe Ma
tiOnal Republican of this morning
publishes the following:
Washington,D C., Dec. S.-Dcar
General: l had conversation with
the President this evening in rela.
ton to the statements in the Post
and Star, of this city, attrlbuting
to him certain views On the sena-
torial election in Virginia. In
those statements he is represented
as expressing wish for the defeat
of Riddleberger. | learn from him
that this is wholly destitute Of
foundation. In the interview which
has been so grossly misrepresented
he was told that it had been stated
that he was taking part in the mat
ter in behalf Of Riddleberger. He
merely stated that he had not IN
terferred at all. He suggested
that Senator Lewis have friendly
talk with you on the subject. The
President expressed no desire as to
the politica! antecedents of the man
who should I've elected, nor did he
say one word which, correctly
stated, would III the slightest de-
gree embanass you Or call in ques
ton your course. On the contrary,
he desires it understood that he has
no views which in any manner con-
A.ct with the friendly sentiment
hitherto expressed to you by him.
These assurances are as unneces
sary &c you as they were TO me, but
they nay be useful in correcting
misrepresentation.
Very truly yours,
GEO. G. GoRHAM.
Hon. VIM. Malone, Richmond,
Va.
Shenandoah herald. [volume] (Woodstock, Va.) 1865-1974, 1881-12-14

The Republicans still squirm.
Poor, simple, deluded creatures
They thought Malone would give
them the United States Senator.
Malone appealed for help. They
answered. They abandoned their
principles. They declared that The
professed principles Of the Repub'
lican party about the honest pay
ment OF public obligations were
all bosh. They could twist over
and embrace even the readjustment
hat they had denounced as dishon-
est. There was something behind.
They expected Malone to be gen.
erous. He was,-before the cleo
tion,-but the time for generosity
is now past, Malone is master Of
the situation and he can now ex-
claim to John T, Lewis, Sam, YosI
and the large white and black hosts
of hirelings: "Back to your places,
You have voted all right, but l am
your master. 1t is my decree that
II, H. Riddleberger shall be United
States Senator. Withdraw your
candidate, and woe to the white or
black republican that dsres cues
ton my authority"
Shenandoah herald. [volume] (Woodstock, Va.) 1865-1974, 1881-12-14

will pass into history and will show
that this great government has in
yaded the limits OF our State, and
by power, patronage and money
has controlled IFS affairs. 1t this
be true it will at once be admitted
that a departure has been made
without precedent in our annals,
threatening a disruption of the fun
damental principles of our system
OF our government, and fatal
blow been struck at the Liberties OF
her people.
Virginia has been accused OF
attempting the mean crime OF re
pudiation. 1t has been charged
the facts here, too, have gone into
history and will shoN-that the
Federal government, or the party
directing its destinies, has used its
patronage, power and money to
hurry her along that rugged and
disreputable way. If this be true,
then if there has been any stigma
it has been taken from cur Com
monwelth and fastened upon the
republic, and will be with difficulty,
if ever, erased. The transfer will
not hide it. 1t will not disappear
Or die, but will bloom out later in
unspeakable disasters "
With regard to the future Of the
country, Gov. Holiday is disposed
to take gloomy view. "If," he
says, "an uprising of the people
does not call halt and restore the
government 10 its ancient ways,
then is the steady march begun
along the road where all republics
have hitherto met their fate; its
days are numbered and the empire
is almost in sight"
But in a government like ours,
by the people, there is less to fear
from precedent than in one directed
by one or few minds. Logic is will
lingly cast aside IN a republic when
it IS seen to lead Enthusiastically to
disaster. The body polite, when
free, possesses self-curativc powers.

Poor Virginia! Committees are
now necessary to consult the Re-
publican President of the United
States, as to his wishes in regard
to who shall be Senators from Vir-
ginia. Carpet-bag rule in its most
corrupt form was not so degrading
as Mahonism in Virginia. Malone
is the boss, his will mnst be exc
cuted by the Legislature. Legisla-
tors OF the dominant party, it APP
pears, are now considered represen-
tatives of Malone, instead Of rep
resen,atives of the people.
