Maine Notes.

We ought to have stated yesterday that
the gain Of one Republican congressman
in Maine was not owing to any change in
the opinions OF the voters, so far rs appears
from the returns, but 10 the fact that the
congressman were elected on a general
ticket, Just as the Democrats OF Kentucky
would elect all the congressman from that
State II these were chosen upon general
ticket.
The Philadelphia Telegraph, not a
BLAINE paper by any means, though
Independent and anti-CANERoN, heads
the news from Maine, "Blaine's VIC
tory.v We don't think that there Is much
rejoicing over that victory among the Ad'
ministration men, or any other Stalwarts,
whether In or out Of Virginia. But the
Virginia Straightouts can hardly suppress
their inclination to rejoice aloud over
BLAINE's grand triumph. They know that
their fortunes are more or less bound up
with his. They feel that il the Democrats
had carried Maine this year, the effect
would have been, ii not to shelve Mr..
BLAINE as a candidate for the presidency,
certainly to diminish very greatly the num-
Der of his chances for the nomination Of
the next Republican National Convention.
The Democrats hereabouts are not at all
depressed liz spirits as consequence OF
the BLAINE victory. They look upon the
ex-Premier as giant-slayer-somcwhat
after the order OF BUNYAN's hero.

To show the feeling Of the Stalwarts in
Washington in regard to the Maine cleo
ton it is only necessary for us to quote
one short paragraph from their organ, the
Republican,. 1t says:
"Senator Frye was chairman OF the
State Committee and the candidate for the
Senate, without rival, which made him
the recognized leader in the fight. His
colleague, Mr.. Hale, and his predecessor,
Mr.. Blaine, and the candidates for Gov
crnor and for Congress, all did splendid
work, and will receive, with him, and
with the Republican voters of the State.
the hearty thanks Of Republicans through
out the country for this magnificent Vic
tory
Not Mr.. BLAINE, but Mr.. FRYE. was
"the recognized leader in the fight"
That's decidedly cool. II is rs if the De
mocrats should say OF Virginia election
that Mr.. JOIN AMBLER SMITH, not General
MALONE. was ''the recognized leader in
the fight.r Mr. BLAINE is set down with
Senator Hale and the candidates for Gov
ernor and for Congress, as ii he, like them,
had been playing second fiddle to the great
FRYE. FRYE will not recognize himself in
the character in which the Republican
would have him masquerade.
FRYE the "recognized LEADER! Who is
Names candidate for President of the
United States!

Federal Supervisors of Elections.


All parties in Virginia profess to desire
O "free ballot and fair count" Two
years ago there were many Federal SUPER
visors OF elections appointed in Virginia
number Of them for counties having no
towns Of any size in them, as Amelia,
Caroline, &c. In Philadelphia, we learn,
the Democrats have for years relied upon
the Federal supervisors as the only pro-
tectors OF the purity Of the ballot-box in
that Republican stronghold.
A prominent Democrat in the Second
district has informed us that he considers
1t important, for some reason OF other,
that there should be Federal supervisors
appointed in at least some Of the counties
OF that district, and has asked us to re-
publish the law on the subject. This it is
hardly necessary to do. The provisions
OF the law are many. They may be
found on pages 353, ct seq, of the 81 Re
vised Statutes Of the United States" We
will, however, state some OF the features Of
the law. The Coalitionists will no doubt
ask for the appointment Of Federal super
yisors for some counties and cities. and the
Democrats ask for such appointments for
other counties and cities. Judge HUGHES
will, il the duty is devolved upon him,
select men to whom no objection can be
made.
Whenever in any city or town of more
than twenty thousand inhabitants, two
reputable citizens, or in any county, ten
such citizens, ask in writing for Federal
supervisors, Federal judge may appoint
them. He shall appoint two such super
yisors, who shall be Of different political
parties, for each election district or voting
precinct. These supervisors have the right
to be present at the registration OF the
voters, as well as at the election OF repre-
sentatves TO Congress, and TO continue in
the presence OF the State election-officers
until all the ballots are counted. They are
clothed with full power to perform all the
duties incident 10 their Office which may
be necessary to secure fair elections.
III, therefore, the Democrats or the CO.
alitionists In any county or city are appre-
hensive that the State election-oflicers will
not act impartially and fairly, and would
prefer to have Federal assistants TO aid
those election-ofllcers in the discharge of
their duties, all that such Democrats or
Coalitionists have TO do is TO ask in writing
Tor the appointment Of Federal super.
'isors. The city and county committees.
OF Ii anybody so prefers, the congressional
committees, will consider the matter and
decide for themselves. 1t is none too soon
10 decide.

AA"'' "" JOHS BOOKER,
Room 2. No. 50 Roanoke avenue.
Apxious That Mr.. Booker and his asso-
GATES sbould fully understand Laws's FIRST
Telegram. and that full answers SHOULD be
made to his inquiries, / had Laws respond
as follows:
WASHINGTON, September 0, 1882.
To John Booker, Custom House, Norto'@,
Va:
Check paid. No truth in report that |
don't mean to act square. will prove my
fidelity to my promises when i return.
Back by Wednesdays boat. Have not
seen the General yet. w. X. LAWS.
THE CHECK
drawn by John Booker on the Home
Savings Bank at Norfolk, and payable to
the order OF w. X. Laws, was collected by
the Bank OF Washington, at Washington,
ID. c., and paid to Laws, who is $500 en-
riched by money wrung, no doubt, from
the hard-worked and poorly-paid clerks Ut
Washington, while the Malone campaign
fund is to that amount impoverished.
Laws maintains his loyalty to his original
pledges. lie will continue to work Tor the
success Of Dezendori and Republican prin-
cipes, and he deserves, a. he will receive,
the hearty commentator OF honest men
everywhere.
And now what becomes OF the boast OF
these people that they meant TO protect the
purity of the ballot-box? Certainly they
never intended to bedraggle the skirts OF
their own judiciary by giving it such pro-
lection rs these facts develop. To my mind
it is clear that Senator
MALONE KNEW
OF this particular effort at corruption, and
while those who know him best will agree
that he has always adopted the same kind
of means to secure his ends, the people OF
the North, who have sustained him until
recently, will be shocked to learn how I'M
scrupulous he is, and to what devices he
will resort to retain power.
But the important revelation to which |
wish to call public attention IS that the
statement OF Peter Carter to Laws that il
was the purpose OF the CoilitiOnists OF the
Second district to count ont DcIendOrf and
give the certificate OF election to Mr.. Libby
will be substantiatcd by me. Carter, with
whom | drove to Eastvile from Cherry
stone wharf on Monday last, told me the
same thing. and / am willing to swear be-
fore Almighty God that he did.
And these are the people who proclaim
that they are lberty-loying. God save the
country from such crew.
If this communication fails to penetrate
THE RIIINOCEROs-UDE OF WILLIAM MALONE,
|, in this public manner, notify him that
within reasonably short time intend to
make public Il matter that will wake him
from his long sleep, and ii the President
OF the United States doesn't turn over in
his summcr-cOuch, then will be mistaken
in my estimate Of cause and effect.
Very respectfully, JoHN W. WOLTz.

The Memphis (Tenn.) Ara.anche warns
the Democrats of that State that they are in
danger of making a financial record by the
reputation of the State debt that will de-
stroy the National Democracy in 1884. But
the Audlanche is not accepted as good au-
thority by the Democrats. At any rate, the
National Democratic party is surely more
able to survive the kind of reputation
proposed by the Democrats Of Tennessee
than the Republican party is to survive the
kind of reputation advocated and carried
into effect in Virginia by the "faithful
allies" OF President ARTHUR.
BY the way, there is little Or no doubt Of
the election n BATE in Tennessee. lie is
the regular Democratic candidate, and will
be chosen both because Of that fact and be-
cause his plan Of settling the debt is ap-
proved by the voters Of that State.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Our meeting yesterday was one of the
most enthusiastic and satisfactory | have
ever known in Louisa. Mr. Wise and Mr..
5. Lewis spoke each IN hour in opening
and half hour in reply, and the discus
sion was perfectly courteous between these
gentlemen. In the force and eifec. of the
two speeches there was no comparison.
Our candidate had the crowd five TO one
from the start, and kept 1t throughout.
His arraignment OF the treachery and hos
tility OF the Republican party to the South,
its feelings, its rights and interest was over
whelming, and received with shouts OF ap-
plause. He showed conclusively that their
enmity was rs strong now as ever, and
those who were trying to sell ont Virginia
TO the Republican party were simply de-
liyering her, bound hand and foot, TO our
foes and the foes Of our State. Many who
have been separated from us on the debt
repudiate Mahone's collar, and refuse TO
be sold out. and nowhere in the district
viii better record be shown in November
than here. We talk no longer OF defeat.
We mean to carry this county. w.
