The Duty of Readjuster-Dem
Ocrafs.

Happily the State debt is no longer
the issue Ia politics 10 divide Democrats
and to estrange them from one another.
The Riddleberger BIZ goes to the courts
and the questions. How much do we
owe? and How much can we pay? no
longer distract the N inds of the people.
II is time, therefore, that all true
Democrat. should let by-gones be by
cones and join together 10 defend the
principles the hold in common from Il e
foe that under the name of Republican
party has 80 long attacked them.
The ls.ue now lie, Republican or
Democrat, and this issue must be
promptly met. 1t is idle for the Boss
and his henchmen to claim the alegi-
ance Of any Dem ocrat, when 1t is plain
that they are about 10 betray him, and
that Democrat, should the bill for re-
dlstrcling the State be passed, will
hereafter see, if be does not now see,
how this same Boss aud these same
henchmen of bis have made the debt
question means by which the State is
10 be given to tie Republicans.
No one Can truthfully deny that tie
Boss, without the negro vote, wosld be
powerless. That yole is under the
control of the Republican Admins
tration, and the Administration will
use it for Republican ends. Demands
will be made upon the Boss 10 which
he must respond or lose the support OF
the negroes. He has been lent the
Federal patronage IN Virginia, ard iu
return he must either serve the Re-
publican party or give up this meals Of
influencing yotes in his own behs For
the Republican party does not lo,O-he
Virginia Boss 30 well as 10 give him
their hep as slight token of esteem.
The Administration helped him at
first in carrying out his ambitious
schemes, that by these schemes lie
might defeat the Democracy in Vlr-
glnia, but the Administration will not
continue to help INN should be dare to
refuse its demands. The Federal pa
lronage in no State is such a trae that
the Republican party will toss it to
Boss merely for the asking. Should
tie bill for redlstricting tie State lie
passed the Boss will be compelled
either TO declare him self Republican
or to lose lis political power IN Viz
gina. The Republican Adminislra-
ton will command him to help elect
Republicans 10 Congress from a ma
jority Of tie districts 10 this State. and
OF course, in order TO do this, he must
help to defeat Democrats, whether they
are Rcadjus erS or no..
Many Republicans already feel that
the Boss has not kept his bargain. and
he will not again he trusted with Fef-
eral assistance unless he is forced by
threats OF abandonment to give more
State assistance in exchange. Republ.
cans, not Readuster Democrats, must
be sent to Congress By the Boss and
followers. The order will be given
aud the Boss dare no, refuse to obey it.
Readjuster Democrats cannot fail TO
see that Virginia Is ia peril Of return
TO Radical rule, and now is the time iol
them to put forth all their strength to
save her. Duty never demanded more
nor was there ever greater danger in
delay. Rich. State.

"OId Man Massey"

CHARLOTTESVILLE. VA, April g.
Mr.. Massey addressed the people Of
Albcmarlc here today. There was not
great number OF people in town, but
be had good audience. He said be

against his party, but he felt it due tc
himself and to the people 10 state the

His fight was against those who were
subvertiug the principles of the party
to their own personal ends.
He did not approve the RiidIeberce r
bill, but supported it to give it a fair
trial. 1t should, however, be ratified by
the people.
Mr.. Massey then entered into an ex-
PLANTATION Of his personal troubles with
the ring, all Of which has heretofore
been published. He paid his respects
10 Gen. Malone, and declared that the
caucus rules camO direct from his hand.
and that all legislation was shaped by
him. He must have heads of depart
ments under his control; he was in as
direct communication with tie cauc us
as the bees we're with the hive, and no
man was or could be nominated in The
caucus Of whom
MALONE DIsA APPROVED.
The members were as if they had
halters around their necks, with Ma
hone at the other end of them.
Malone is man who never f0rgets
an enemy or rewards friend-a man
CT an inordinate ambition, who would
not hesitate 10 blot Virginia out of ex.
istence to accomplish his personal
ends. 1t would be the proudest day
he (Mahone) ever had ifhe (Massey)
had left the party. If any man ex-
pected anything Of Malone, success
depended upon how low he could be-
come and how submIssively he could
lick the Boss feet.
He showed how dangerous we're
