m. Republicans Of Virginia are waxing

sss,r nsrty. We DO not think II can any
icnser be considered doubtful whether
there i 20 be next fall irregular Republican
ticket IN Virginia or not. The Eaaey VT-

and between the two IL will 80 hard pu'

The Valley girginian. whose position We
had considered doubtful. appears to nave
enlis,ed for the war. In the following par

Wa have said "viclory or de!est.' put
there can be no defeat for the regular re
publlcans Inside Of their own party organ

recognized by the Chicago Convention, ana
sdpiited 10 seats without even protest
from the MALONE Republicans; and the
right OF the straigbtouis TO send delegates

ard TO hold and control all the offices In Vir'
ginia. and to claim all the outside offices TO
be given 10 vlrginians, cannot be disputed.
The regulars are the regulars, aud the Ma
honeites belong to the regulars neither OF
the Democratic nor OF the Republican par
Nv. Think Of 1t. Have they any more
right 10 send delegates to Republican
National Convention than to Democratic
n ,,iopal Convention? Surely not. They
sent no delegates to either last year. Well
they knew that their delegates would have
been refused admission TO either regular
Democratic or a regular Republican Ma.
tional Convention. Are they any better OIL
nowy BY no means. The Democrats OF
the whole country, acting through their re-
representatives. ia the United States Senate,
have denounced the MAHoNE party. The
Republican National Convention would
moi even consider the claims OF any
delegates the MALONE Republicans might
seaa to that body; for these do not
even claim to be Republicans. The claim
thew last set up, or set up last year, was that
theirs was the genuine HANCOCK ticket.
They dare not turn round at this early day
and claim to be the genuine Republicans
However, we had no idea when we began
Of doing anything more than to Introduce
what Mr. YOsr has TO say Of the Republi'
cans who train with the Mahoneites. We

est enemies and the most intense revlleTs oil
the Republican party, Just because, having
been kicked out Of the Democratic party
by reason OF their greed for power and
place, they find no other chance OF achiev-
ing The desires OF their souls than by
stealing Republican ideas and processing
a liberalism in violation OF all their acts
and convictions heretofore, without the
nsnliuess and courage to identity them
selves with the party whose principles they
assume to embrace. Their records against
the vital principles Of the Republican
party-their loose aud ruinous ideas OF
finance, commerce, and industry are ig-
nored, and their high-sounding piatitudes
about liberalism accepted as sufficient cause
10 give them preference over Republicans
who have been tried as with fire and never
faliered. Suppose Weaver Gin Wisconsin
aud Ben. Butler Ia Massachusetts, would
attempt to organize each party entertain
ing their communistic notions about gov
eminent and legislation, would the Repub.
lican press and the Republican statesmen OF
the North dare give them their support!
Not bit OF it. But here in Virginia.
where the champions OF the greenback
falIacies and the most ruinous views OF
government integrity, who boldly declare
for the Reputation OF State obliga-
tions, in defiance Of the State aud ma
tional courts OF last resort, proclaim for
simulated liberalism and war upon Bour-
bonism, these northern Republicans urge
that the Republican party should surrender
to them and support the candidates they
place IN the field! We ask the northern Re-
publican papers and the northern Republic
eau statesmen whether they can stand upon
such a record in the future-i2noriDg the
