THE FALL OF MALONE

The Malone party of Virginia was
kept alive by the federal administration
under Garfield and Arthur, Mahones
principal idea was the readjustment OF
the Virginia debt, the term meaning re-
pudiation. This idea was lndorsed by
both Garfield and Arthur, ahd later by
the republican national committee, which
rcpl,dia,ed all of Mahones republican
opponents and gave him full charge OF
such republican money as went to MS
state. For several years Malone ran the
republican party of Virginia, filled the
local Offices to suit him self aud in vlola>
ton of every known principle of civil
service reform; inaugurated riot aud
murder in order to create northern sentl-
mcnt AGAINST the south; controlled the
senate of the United States. and to II
considerable extent the republican
party of the nation, and de
moraized Virginia and national
politics 10 u greater extent ;han might
have been done by any other man, That
hi, wls not just or fair IS shown by the
result of the recent election in Virginia.
Public sentiment in his own state, as in
the country at large, is Overwhelmingly
against him With the withdrawal or
federal patronage from him he goes down
lie ha, no friends at home, or anywhere
else His power was rs fictitious AS 1t
was corrupt Even his newspaper passes
into the hands of receiver, and utterly
dcmoralized he declares that he will re-
move from Virginia and perhaps go to
Europe out Of pure disgust.
What lesson is here! How poorly
politics takes care of itself when the il
Legitimate means to its support is with
drawn And what sorry chapter in the
history Of American politics will come to
an end with the retirement of this miser-
able little traitor from the senate chamber
