that tie ignorant followers whom he had

These reflections occurred 10 us upon
reading yesterday a haudhll and a
pamphlet sent out by the supporters Of
LAsosros i'm the Fourth congressional
district IN which MALONE IS handled
without gloves. Here are a few spcci-
mems of the languago which those lately
eubseryieut tools OF MAuoNE now apply
90 him. We quote:

Tho Republicans of the Fourth dis
trict are eravely notified by General Ma
hone that Judge Arnold is the regular
nominee of tue Republican party for
Congress IN utter disregard of the we'll
luowu fact that fully 80 per cent. of the
Republicans of this district earnestly de
sired and have nominated Professor John
M Iangston.
Fraud yitiates everything, and those
10 lMahoaol delegates were bogus and
fraudulent; in fact did not represent III
per centum OF the Republican voters Of
the congressional district.
II is admitted 10y General Malone in
his address that thirty-threo delegates
were legally elected TO the convention.
Not one of these thlrty-three legally
elected delegates entered into or took
any part whatever in the Malone meet.
ing which nominated Judge Arnold (,
but every ono Of them attended the
regular convention, participated IN MI
its proceedings, aud upon the call of the
roll all answered 10 their names for Pro

We include Petersburg because General
Malone in his address admits that they
were the prtmG-J0cic delegates. and al.
though be himself, his city chairman,
and his member Of the congressional
commi;tee from this city. all knew well
that there was no legal contest from Pc

the delegates from his own home a vote
or voice in his convention.
You Republicans OF the district are
fully aware of the ouiraCts perpetrated
upon the party in your respective local.

il unnecessary for Us TO here give the
details.
Judge Arnold is tho bogus candidate
appointed by General Malone, not
nominated. Tor Congress by the Repub-
leans OF the district He stands us the
representative Of Malone, and in JUS
tice, honor, and fair dealing, he has no
right title, or claim TO be regarded as
the regular Republican nominee for
Congress IN this district
An the product OF Malone we feel con-
fident that the Republicans Of the dis
trict will repudiste him on elCction.day.
Let Intelligent Republicans in each coun-
ty consider Judge Arnold's strength.
Your committee have given the matter
careful consideration aud we do not be-
hevo that II he remains in the field he
will on election-day poll 200 votes. In
this city. where General Malone resides,
has friends, and where under his inspira-
ton bitter race prejudice has been in.
cited against Professor Iangston on ac-
couns OF his color, we are confident that
thete hrs not nifty c0lored Republicans
supporting Judge Arnold.
The foregoing paragraphs are from
the handful. The following is from the
title-page of the pamphlet:
The Frauds. 0utrsgos, and Trickery
OF the Malone Machine" Exposed.
An Unparalleled Record Of Bareiaced
Robbery Of the Republican Voters in
Every County Of the District. How
Mshone's Orders TO Defeat Lsngston at

In the body OF the pamphlet we find
the following;
. We desire the Republicans OF the
eountry 70 understand that the Virginia
State Chairman has drawn the color
line, ineited bitter race prejudice against
the negro, and trsmpied upon their legal
rights and privileges more viciously and
