The Republican Parry Must Go.


We believe the Star route verdict will
leave a profound and lasting impression
on the public mind. 1t ought to. The
men declared mot guilty. are of no con-
sequence; but the result of this trial will
justly be held by all thoughtful citizens as
proof that it is high time to make change;
thai the, psrty of greal moral ideas" is
no longer entitled to the,r confidence AMI
cannot be safely trusted with the peoples
money. The verdict is. to he suIe, but
one of many evidences to the same effect.
(The River and Harbor jobs. the Robson
navy jobs, the impudent refusal to make
adequate reductions of taxation, the cor
rupt determination to compel needless and
surplus taxes out of the peoples pockets,
the penei0n gwindle, the unblushing alli-
ance with all sorts of monop6lles- these
prove that the Republican party has out
lived not merely it's usefulness, but It's
moral sense. But it probably needed this
result of the Star route trials to break the
back of the publc's patience.
The Presidential campaign of 1884 will
be battle between the people and the
friends of monopoly and jobbery.

Political Notes.

Mr.. Charles Carter, prominent Dem
oeratic Readjuster of Smythe county. was
the chairman of the Democratic meeting
of that county to appoint delegates to the
Lynchburg convention. In his speech &C.
cepting the position, he said that he was an
old Readjuster, but if the party "was 60
ing into Radicalism and negroism" be
would support the Democracy.
Jonathan E. Boush. who was a Virgin
ia Republican State Senator at the session
at which Gen. Malone was elected U 5.
Senator, and refused to vote for him,
writes these facts to the N. Y. Tribune"
and adds, that for that refusal he was dis
missed from his position in the Norfolk
navy yard. His successor, he says. was
Mr. John White, who was well known
Democrat before he became a Readjuster.
The Abingdon ''Virglnian' says that
Gen. Malone has decided that H. g
Wood of Scott, shall be the Republican
candidate from tie Second Senatorial dis
trct-Lee, Scott and Wise. 1t says but
one ''pledge" it is understood is to be ex-
acted from the Malone candidates for
the legislature this year. and that is that.
if elected. they will vote for Mahones re-
election as U. s. Senator.
Ferdinand Schumacher. the Prohibi.
zionist candidate for Governor of Ohio, is
the famous Oatmeal King of Akron. He
not only refrains from the use of liquor
and tobacco himself, but he compels his
employees, when about the mills to d. the
same.

Judge OF Botetourt, r. F. Mays, against
fhs editors of the Fincastle Herald" and

ment On him, have been withdrawn.
Among Mr.. Dezendorf's charges is one
that, On the request of Senator Malone,
Commodore Mayo of the Norfolk Navy
Yard, put Jordan Thompson, negro re-
siding in Suffolk, on the navy yard pay
roll, on April Both. That he did not 90
to work until after election day, May
oath, and though drawing pay all the
while, was engaged in going around the
county electioneering for the Malone
county ticket.
Coalition State Senator M. 2. Rue, of
Norfolk, who resigned to take the post
mastership of that city, has qualified as
postmaster. This settles the matter as
to an election in that district next fail.
Among the delegates to the Lynchburg
convention from Alexandria are J. S. Bar
bour, and Edgar Snowden of the Alexan-
dria "Gazette.'
1t is worthy of note, that of the six del
egates to the Lynchburg convention from
Smythe county, three are Democratic Re-
adjusters.
The Fairfax "Herald" after describing
the value to the Democratic party of a
thorough reorganization, adds: Clearing
these simple truths IN mind let Democrats
all over the State thoroughly organize,
and under the direction of such a man as
Mr.. Barbour, the campaign this fall will
most assuredly result in a grand Demo-
cratic victory"

The Collectors of Internal Revenue.
THE NEW REPUBLICANS ON TOP AND
THE OLD ONES CHECKED OFF.
Ispecial to the Baltimore American.


Especial to the Baltimore Americana
WARRINGTON, June 26-.Well." said
an enthusiastic Virginia Mahoneite to
your correspondent to-day, sit doesn't
look now as though President Arthur had
gone back on his bargain with Malone.
Indeed, the contract now is more binding
than ever, and no one can possibly dispute
it. The old man is on top again, for a
certainty
ssWhat do you mean ?'' inquired the
correspondent.
s.Mean? Why, hang it, man the con-
solldation Of those internal revenue dis
tricts! Don't you see that by the consol-
ldatisn in Virginia, Malone will prac-
tically control the internal revenue
interests of the State /? Under it jim
Brady, the present collector at Petersburg,
and Mahone's right bower, has been made
collector of the new distrlct-the console
dated second-with headquarters at Rich
mond, thus turning out Rives and Russell,
Mahone's most bitter enemies, and Bolts,
who il no less than the brother-in-law of
Lieut.. Gov. Jonn F. Lewis, an old and
dangerous foe. This is very significant !;
and here is a telegram from Richmond
exhibiting dispatcb) l received this
morning. which shows how justly jubilant
Mahone's riends ara"
Tie telegram was brief, and signed by
Gust fnhouse official at Richmond. It SIM
ply Sd d. "We believe the consolidation
gives General Malone the whip hand
again.
Commenting on the dispatch. the gentle
man then added:
81 will let you into little secret: That
cnnsoldation of the new Second district
" as brought about under the personal di.
rection of Malone, and transcribed to at
his direction by Brady himself. 1t is the
result of long and careful study, and who.
ever will hereafter assert that Arthur al d
Malone are out are painfully mis-
TAKEN"
Several other Virginians here who were
Sc en-, among them ex-Congressman John
GOOde, said that the whole thing showed
Malone on its face. so far as Virginia was
concerned.
In this connection, it is remark ed that
Mahone's Influence with the President is
particularly manifest in the case of Col
lector Bolts. His district was not disturb
bed in the reorganization but man
named Craig, hitherto unheard of in Vir'
ginia politics and a personal friend of Ma
hone, was put in charge of it. Only few
days ago Lieut.. Gov. Lewis and Other
friends called upon the President in his
behalf. 1t will also be remembered that
the late wife of the Presldens was relate
to the Bolts family. Indeed, the President
visited branch of the family at Savan
nah. and another Of the same family is
now guest at the White House. All OF
which is advanced as showing what OBJ
sta Giles Mr.. Malone can overcome.

The nomination by the Ohio Democracy
of Judge Hoadley seems to be conceded by
the press of the country, both Republican
and Democratic, to be a happy and wise
stroke. He acted with the Republican
party until the fraudulent counting in of
Hayes when he left it for the Democratic
ranks. This single incident of his political
record shows that he is in full sympathy
with the feeling which now pervades the
mind of the American people; feeling
of intense opposition to the fraudulent and
corrupt acts of the Republican party from
the fraudulent Presidential count down to
the gang of prominent Republican states
men lately facing defrauded country from
the prisoners box, under the name of ''Star
routers.'' As to the chances of Judge
Hoadley' election they have yet to be de-
cided, but the Democratic platform adopt
ed by the convention that nominated him
cannot fail to greatly strengthen them.
The three sections of it, which touch on
the practical national and State issues
now uppermost in Ohio, are as follows:
Seeond-We favor tariff for revenue limited to
the necessities of a Government economically ad-
ministered, and adjusted in its application as to
prevent unequal burdens encourage productive in
terests at home, and afford just compensation to
labor, but not to create or foster monopol;es.
Thrd-The act of the Republican Congress re
ducing the tariff on wool while at the same time i'll
creasng it or wooen goods, already highly pro
tected, ubiquitous legislation, discriminating in
favor of monopoly and against the agricultural in
&erests of the country and ought not to have been
carried and we heartily approve the action of the
Democratic members of the Ohio delegation in
Congress in voting against the increase
FOurth-The Democratic party is. as it always has
been, opposed to sumptuary legislation and unequal
taxation in any form, and is in favor Of the largest
liberty of private conduct consistent with the pub
lie welfare and the rights OF others. and of regula
ing the liquor traffic and providing against the evils
resulting therefrem by a judicious and properly
graded license system.
It would be hard. we think, to find a
more practical treatment of the questions
that are just now most interesting to the
people of Ohio.
