made with either himself or the "Big Four''
touching this matter; but that gratitude to
the men who delivered Virginia from the
infamous schemes of the Boss and his gang
did induce members of the Legislature to
become his true political supporters for this
campaign have no doubt.
Mr.. Massey has no idea of retiring to pri-
vate life, and therefore the question is, shall
we welcome him back or cast him out? l
think, when recall the matchless skill of
the man as debater, his capacity as an Of
ficer Of the Commonwealth, his popularity
in his party, that in the present condition of
affairs there is room for him in the demo
cratic fold, those who themselves wish to
run or whose friends wish to put them for
ward to the contrary.
Your articles 81. S B., try to disguise it
as you may, from beginning to end, show
hostility upon the debt question towards
Mr.. Massey. That question has been fought
in politics until every interest of the State
demands halt Malone is willing to have
it revived, for every discussion but adds to
his hold upon this commonwealth. Let it
pass forever. Those who own the debt fur
nished the money and the offices that beat
us last fall. Let them look to their allies
for payment.
alu uOW WHY SuOulu we HOG illu MASSEY
in his fight against Mahoneism? Because
he left us upon the debt? Ifso, how can
we ask those who followed him land whose
support we must have) to come back to us ?
If he is not worthy to come, are they?
Is it not written Substantially that there
is more joy in heaven over one sinner that
repenteth than over ninety and nine that
went not astray and therefore, taking even
~. S. B's.' views, is it not our duty to re-
ceive back to the party upon equal terms
one who declares now, as always, that he is
and was democrat?
Take up nine out of ten of the newspapers
in the State and they favor Massey Ask
nineteen out of twenty of the leading poll
ticians Of the State and they declare for him.
| Opposition comes from three sources: first,
those few who, like J. S. B.. base it upon
the debt; second, those who wish to run
themselves or whose friends wish to run
them third, the Mahoneites. Such opposi-
ton Of the first two classes must give way
before the overwhelming sentiment of the
masses in Massey's favor.
The time has come to sacrifice little
pride, if necessary, and redeem our State
to disown the Boss and his rule by de
cided vote, and reunite our party 1t is fol
the people to judge whether this can be best
accomplished by the ultra views of j. S. B
or those expressed herein by c. E. S.
