COALITION THREAT.
Correspondence Of the Echmon' Dispatch.l
WILLIAMsEC7 re. October >, 1888.
The people from the lower part OF York
county in attendance on court yesterday
reported that the storm OF Tuesday eve
ming was perfect tornado in that section,
dwelling fences, trees. and i'm several in
stances oyerturning dwellings. Little or
no business was transacted i'm court. but
some lively political proceedings by the
StraIghtouts and Mahoneites animated the
day.
The Mahoneites had Il. T. HUBBARD, Of
! Richmond. and several other speakers on
the ground. while the StraightOutS were
represented by Rev. J. VI. Dawson. Haas,
and Jones. Satisfactory arrangements for
JOINT discussion having failed to lie
agreed upon. HUBBARD commenced speak
ing from the courthouse steps. lmme-
datelv the cry Of ." This way, RepIbli-
cans" was raised, and the StraightOuts re-
tired across the street TO a store directly
opposite. when Jones mounted 4 box and
| divided the crowd pretty elTectually, il not
the time. Mr.. HUBBARD discussed the State
debt, pceer bonds. rcddjustment, DC,
after the manner peculiar TO all Mahonciles,
and Loyalty portrayed the Boss as a de-
serving citizen and mighty generous and
ilustriouS statesman. While ne was in
dulgng in these heroes. however, the
name OF Malone could be heard across the
way connected with some portions OF his
career that illustrated the Generals states
manship with a vengeance. As he pro-
ccedcd the MahOncite orator became drcari-
" eloquent about Democratic abuse OF the
Boss and the Democrats trying ID keep the
negroes i'm the depths OF ignorance and
misery. Said he. those Men over yOnder
who call themselves StraightOutS constitute
a political cipher. important alike for good
or evil; but at that moment. unfortunately.
the Straightout speaker. who had been
telling his hearers just how far Mahone'S
love for their race went and why they
should oppose him. called for three cheers
for the National Republican party. and the
cheers were given with vim, which made
the silence around the Malone champion
rather embarrassing. Dawson seemed 10
take especially well, and during his speech
fully Two thirds Of the crowd were drawn
TO the StraightOut stand and chcered him
frequently. Wednesday night he spoke 10
IN audience OF 400 in Hampton. The OPP
posing speakers continued TO fire awly at
each other for nearly two hours, at times
INDUCING in personal and not very compli-
menfary illusions 10 each other Griffin,
the MahOncite candidate for the House in
this district, said that "the party represent
ed by him was IN pOioer and meant 10 con-
tinue in pOirer by some hook or crook.
Now, make the most OF il. We will nurse
the polls, and will see how the votes are
cast"
Yesterdays proceedings at Yorktown
shows that MahOneiSm has begun 10
weaken where it was least expected. The
Straightouts are beginning 10 feel their
strength, and are making 4 vigorous and
aggressive canvass. Mr.. HUBBARD came mp
to Williamsburg i'm the evening and held
forth i'm the courthouse last night where
quite Il boom was gotten up for his benefit. |
Just a. he opened a Straightout committee
waited on the meeting and asked the /,
speaker would he divide time. Mr.. HUI !
bard replied. 81 am in the hands Of my /
committee DR.. Wise, who was chair I.
man OF the meeting, asked who il was that /
wanted a division OF time. The answer |
was, THE representative OF the National /
Republican party" DR.. Wise then said : !
- We are the representatives. Of the I
National Republican party. and recOg- /
nike no one else" II will be seen from ,
this that the NlahoneItcs are now claiming I
to be better Republicans than the Straight
outs themselves, while not so very long ago |
they were continually bowling about their
beng better Democrats than anybody else
in the State In the course of his remarks
the speaker said that Colonel Mckinney i'm
a public speech at Farmyille had stated that
the colored people had no right to vote,
and ought 10 be cheated and swindled. He /
also said that the Coalition patty was the
only true Republican party in the State,
and that ii Arthur was nominated next
year X. I. HUBBARD would take the stump
for him. W.
King and q ucon Democrats.
