IHE POLITICAL canvass just closing in
Virginia is the most disgraceful one that
ever took place in the State as regards both
the principles the Mahonetes advocate and
the means they have adopted to advance
them Their principles are one man power,
reputation, oblitcration of race distinctions,
the cn.cnderng of class anmosities, and the
dragging down Of the intelligent and thrifty
III order that the ignorant and lazy NAV
rise; and the means to which they have re-
sorted 10 effect success are the prostitution
Of Ill the branches of the State government
I" the partisan purposes OF Il boss. rapa-
ciuus cNactions from the men. women and
children 10 whom they have given office.
ami low personal abuse, staggering bragg
garlism, iisticuiis and sham ducls. Hannv
day when the election shall have been held /!
aud thrice happy if Mahoneism shall meet
the fate it 80 justly deserves!

WHENTHE Chinese bill was before the SEN
ate and ii was apparent that it would pass
the representatives. Of the Northern monop-
olizing manufacturers. who wanted to re-
'iuce the price of American labor by forcing
Il competition between it and Chinese cheap
labor, offered al amendment providing that
the section excluding the Chinese should
not apply to any skilled laborcrs who might
come under the same conditions as such
labOrcrs come from Europe. Among those
who voted for this amendment was General
Malone; and yet the General has such u
poor opinion OF the intelligence OF his fol-
lowers that he tells them he is the working
mans friend. Why, when he was President
Of the y. Il W. Railroad. it was worth more
than 4 workman's place ON that road TO
approach him with covered head. The
General Is great friend of the working
man, hut only when he wants his vote.

HIM. F. Thompson IN the Municipal Court
Wdjres Further Examination an the EN-
be=zIemeRt Cdse-d Second Udrrant
Serred on Him.
When the Thompson embezzlement case
was called in the municipal court yester-
day morning. Mr.. Hart, the defend
ants counsel, waived further exam
ination. and asked that bail be fixed in
this case as well as in second case which
he had been credibly informed was then
on file in the court. The court replied that
he knew nothing of the second information
alluded TO. but Clerk Stevens explained
that q second warrant alleg-
ing further embezzlement in
the sum OF $4,000 had been issued at the
instance of Messers. Farnham d Loveioy.
and placed III the hands Of an officer for
service. bat that the warrant had not vet
been returned.
Defendants counsel was desirious that
the defendant should be at once arraigned
so as to be admitted to bail upon both
warrants. He thought it was nothing
but motiAe of persecution
which prompted the complaining witness
es in the matter.
The court placed the bonds in the first
case at $1,000.
Mr.. Levi asked that the prosecution
state the total amount of the embezzle-
ment alleged, and that the court fix bail SO
as to cover both cases.
At this point the sheriff re-
turned the last warrant referred to. and
the defendants counsel waived 'examina-
ton. The court fixed the bonds at $4,000
in this instance.
The defendant wSs remanded to the
custody of the sheriff in default of filing
the required bonds, and will now await the
next session of the grand jury.

THE LUMBER CUT.
The minneapolis Sae Mills Manufactured
Orer 300, 900 900 Feet of Lumber the Past

The minneapolis Sac Mills Manufactured
Deer 300 900. 900 Feet of Lumber the Past
Season.
The following statistics of the lumber
cut by the various mills of Minneapolis
during the past season, are taken from the
Journal of last evening:
The figures given herewith are those
furnished by the various mill companies
themselves. By reference to the table it
will be seen that the cut Of the past season
exceeds that of 1881 by over 100000
feet, and that almost 100000 more lath
and nearly 100000 more shingles have
been manufactured than in the previous
season. The actual capacity OF the mills
has not been increased, save in two in
stances: The Goodenow & Hawley mill,
which was consumed by fire early in Sep
TENDER of 1881, and rebuilt during the
winter of 1882, being completed in time
to begin operations in good season last
spring, and has done good seasons work.
The Lamereaux mill, run the past season
by Fletcher Bros, was also rebuilt during
the winter of 1882, and has made fine
run this season. The following table gives
the cut Of the Minneapolis mills for 1881
and for 1882:

As published in the GLOBE yesterday.
W. Il. Tanner and J. B. Wallace were ar
rested at the instance Of A. c. Jordan. of
the Tribune. upon the specific charge of
dealing faro. They were permitted to go
upon bonds IN the amount of 800 each.
The parties were arraign in the municipal
court yesterday morning, when the charges
were read. and the defendants each entered
plea of not guilty. The cases were then
continued until Wednesday afternoon for
trial. Geo. R. Robinson appeared as Jor-
dams counsel. while J. P. Rea, of Rea.
Wooley Il Kitehell, appeared for the de-
Tense.
1t having been stated that no faro had
been dealt in either place, and that Wal
bank, A. C. Jordan wa.
doubtless impressed with the fact that
the parties he was after would go scott
free, so he at once caused to be issued
search warrants against Tanner, Wallace.
and against James Noble. Armed with
these papers the officers. at about 3 O'Clock
went into Noble's place in the Merchants
block. 1t was found in the charge of a

Michael Hargan and Edward G.. Gill

the star route case.
Judson Crane, who was mentioned in the
newspapers yesterday as probable friend
Of defendants, has made a statement with
q view to generating himself of the
charge. and desired to be excused if not
entirely satisfactory to the prosecution.
Mr.. Ingersou said the publication was
simply an effort to terrorize the jury, and
added, Of course every man on the jury
must expect to be attacked by the newspa-
pers in the interest of
the government and may perhaps expect
to be arrested after the trial. though Judge
Wyiie said that the assertion was an exub-
erance of 1ngersoifs own imagination.
After further coiloquy Judge Wylie said:
In behalf Of this juror say that if the

Cameron was resumed. In the Dickson

Dickson, made strong appeal to the

per cent, Pacific Mail, Erie, Cleveland, Column
bus, Cincinnati & indianapolis and Granger
stocks being most prominent, and at the close
many stocks were at the highest points. The
explanation of the advance in Pacific Mail is that
a certain block of over &c, 600 shares which has
been held by a certain prominent operator and
has been used by him as dead weight to de-
press the market, has been to-day taken out of
his hands by parties who have taken hold of this
stock for an advance. The officers of the Union
Pacific, in explaining the apparent discrepancy
in reports of the earnings of the road for the
first ten months of 1881, as compared with the
same period of 1882, say that in nearly all cases
actual amounts, and that they believe the current
monthly estimates this year are below the actual
figures, though not SO largely as last year. The
officers of the road have furnished the following
statement of actual earnings and expenses of the
whole system ten months to Oct. 81, 1881 and
