IN VIRGINIA..


Information from the political canvass in vir-
ginia, gathered by STAR reporter from differ
emit sources, indicates that the contest is very
close and doubtful, with the chances apparently
slightly favoring the democrats. Gen. Malone
is conducting still hunt, a species of political
warfare, in which he is said to be peculiarly
skillful- He has no speakers in the field, is max
ing no fuss, but urges his lieutenants to get out
every republican voter and see that his vote is
cast. Now and then Gen Malone effects a COM
promise, by which some one of the rival faction
ceases opposition and joins with him. The dem
ocratic leaders are fearful that they cannot get
their vote out. They say that is the only dan
ger; that the democrats are in the majority in
the state, but there is some dissatisfaction
growing out Of disappointments in regard TO
Office. 1t is said that the soreheads are ugly
and will not be placated. There is, according
to democratic workers, a lack Of enthusiasm
within the party. All the efforts of the mana
gers will be directed toward getting voters to
the polls. Meantime it is said that Gen. Ma
hone is pretty well supplied with money for
campaign purposes, and in the last several days
he has expressed the belief that the state would
90 republican.
