GENERAL MAHoNE's Richmond organ ac-
cuses the democrats Of being grave yard
politicians. People who live nearer the
Capital of the naticn and even those who
live farther off, provided they read the Con-
grrssional debates, are under the impression
that it is the stalwart republicans, the adj
ministration wing of the republican party,
the wing to which General Malone has
promised the support of Virginia who are
the grave yard politicians, who wave the
bloody shirt over dead issues, and who, like
ghouls and hyenas, delight in digging up
the graves of the civil war that were closed
more than seventeen long years ago.
