Will Not Support Malone.


The yIRGINIAN will not support Gen
Malone for Governor, for the following,
among other reasons:
The body that nominated him was not
a Republican Convention, representing
the sentiment of the party in the State.
The primary meetings were not repre-
sentative of the sentiment OF the party
in the precincts;
The County Conventions were hoO
representative of the sentiment OF the
party in the countess
They were all engineered by Manor
through his seh-perpetuating plan OF
organization, to suppress popular sen'i-
ment and record his wishes iil the POM
nation for Governor that was presf iileo
at Norfolk
His nomination makes the issue
-. = - ions,
State and National, which might
been fairly and properly considered dur
ing the campaign.
His election would, we believe, be a
calamity to the Commonwealth, in that
it would paralyze industrial progress
arrest the inflow of capital and enter
prise; and inaugurate a reign of hate
and revenge that would disturb and ag-
gravate every relation of business and
every influence that contemplates the
material progress of the State.
If elected he would not, in our iudg-
ment, hesitate one moment to prostitute
the dearest interests of the State to his
own personal ends and ambition, just as
he has prostituted the interests Of the
Republican party.
1t would be menace to the Reppbll-
can party of the Nation, in that 1t
would be an endorsement of bos$lsm,
through the aid of the chairman OF the
National Committee, and revive the ma
lign influence that on former occasions
has threatened the disruption of the
party, but which has been rebuked by
the people. as often as it has been pre-
scented before them.
His defeat would be protest against
his -perpetuating plan Of orgahlza-
ton. to which he owes his nomination
his vindictive persecution of Repupil-
cans who have the independence and the
man hood to question his methods MS
ute disregard of the will and wants OF
the people in their local concerns his
abu . of power unwisely entrusted to
him. which he proscribes all Repub
licaas Tho will not wear his collar, and
fayor7 only those who are his willing
tools, egardless of their fitness ano
gu iiitt ltions.
Ii valid emancipate the party in the
State om a domination that has here
flor. Kept and will in all time to dome
kee ON it many who agree with the
pri lei les of the party as they apply t1
nat o III administrative policy, and pre-
yentr the State from becoming enrolled
in the Republican column.
W do not believe in ''bossism"-we
are / # willing that one man shall hold
the z publican party in Virginia in his
clutch, to do with it as he may please
to ,oatrol all of it's interests, State
and Ma ional, and enthrone himself az
absolute ruler and dictator, and SO be
lieving We cannot and will not support
Gen. 5ia zone for Governor.

Slemp and Lurty.

Campbell G. Slemp, the Malone nom
inee for Lieutenant-Go Governor, is from
Lee county, and is about so years old.
He was graduated from Emory College
in 1853 He was colonel in the Confed-
crate army and was a member of the
State Legislature for two terms, from
1879 to 1882. He made quite a reputation
in college as a speaker, and his stump
speeches are well spoken Of He is said
to be a very popular man in the South
west, where he is known as a Malone
Republican.
Warren S. Lurty, the nominee for
the Attorney Generalship, is from Har-
risonburg, Rockingham county, and is a
representative Republican of the Valley.
He is about 45 years old, and is a promi-
nent lawyer. He was at one time United
States District Attorney for the Western
District of Virginia. He was originally
from West Virginia, and is a cousin of
Stonewall jackson. He served during
the war as a Captain Of Artillery in the
Confederate Army.

Marked

The Washington Capital, a Demo
cratic paper SO long as Cleveland was
President, says that every Republican
who fails to support Malone In this can
vass, after his nomination, will be a
marked" man hereafter. We heard
refused to support Greeley. We pre-
dicted then that Greeley would not carry
Virginia and could not be elected, and we
now predict that Malone will not carry
Virginia. and will be overwhelmingly de
feated. We further predict that the
number of simon-pure Republicans, who
will not vote in the election. will surprise
the capital and all who agree with IT..
Gen. Mahone's methods are not Repub-
lican-his nomination does not reflect
the sentiment of large element of the
party; and he will not be supported by
thousands of Republicans, both white
and colored, who have never faltered in
the past, They believe that the only
way for the Republicans to hope for sue
cess in Virginia, is to have bossism ia
the party crushed out. 1t is the only way
to build up a successful party in the
State, as it was found the only way to
maintain Republican ascendancy in New
York and Pennsylvania, and the only
way to prevent the National Convention
from disruption in 1880.
Believing that it lis not to the interest OF
Virginia or the Republican party of the
State and Nation that Gen. Malone
should be elected Governor, the VIRGIN
IAN will not support him and it's editor
will not vote for him-not if he had been
nominated by dozen packed Conven-
tions, and were backed by a dozen Ma
tional Executive Committees. If that be
treason then make the most of it, and if
that be cause for marking" then the
business can be proceeded with.

There is complaint, widespread and
well grounded, among the Republicans
of the various sections at the delay in
making changes in the fourth class post
offices, and some, we understand, are
disposed to lay the blame on the late
candidates for Congress in the several
districts. OF course there are necessarily
many delays in making forty or fifty
thousand changes, especially where there
are opposing claimants for the positions.
But we think there has been unneces-
sary delay in filling the Virginia Offices
So far as the 10th District is concerned
this delay is in no wise attributable to
the late candidate for Congress- Except
in very few instances, he has made re-
concentrations, wherever applications
have been flied or brought to his atten-
ton. The exceptions have been where
for good and sufficient reason he did not
think it proper to make recommends
tions, and in such cases he has so notified
each of the candidates. Some of these
recommendation have been followed;
some have not been acted upon, and in
few instances, appointments have been
made in opposition to the recommends
lions.
We deem it but due that a simple
statement of the facts should be made
that the people may understand where
the blame of delay does not roct

Be Charming at Homo.

A good many men and women covet,
and perhaps have the reputation of be-
ing charming conversationalists" who
never appear in that role in their own
homes. There, their talk is confined
to humdrum topics, to mere gossip, or
to enforcing quiet while they cultivate
their precious intellect or settle their
nerves to fit them for amiability in pub
lie. Yet aside from the pleasure which
cheerful and worthy conversation diff
fuses over a home circle, its educative
force can hardly be over estimated.
The bright and interesting girls who
surprise and interest you with their
ready fund of information quite out

Women faint much more frequently

and q fainting fit is more dangerous
with them than with the others;

what is known as fatty degeneration of

hemorrhage, fainting becomes invested
with great danger, and the event may
ven be fatal, the subject never coming

Lieut.. E.. Il. Moore of the United
States navy has given a detailed de-
scription of the method of testing
chronometers at the naval observa-
tory. A small "temperature-room"
was built with double walls, the space
between the walls being filled with
sawdust. This room Is heated by the
circulation Of hot water, and is cooled
by ice in u refrigerator underneath the
flooring, when a temperature below
that Of the outside atmosphere is
required. The heating apparatus,
which is in a room adjoining the tenn
perature-room, consists of a small cop
per boiler, under which are two Bunsen
burners. The boiler is fed from a tank
overhead. In the gas-pipe supplying
the burners, there is a spring valve,
operated by the armature of an cleo
tro-magne:. Two minute gas jets serve
to light the larger burners when the
valve is opened. The electro-magnet
is in circuit with a mercurial thermo-
stat, which is so adjusted, that, when
the m rcury IN the tube OF the thermo-
stat is at or above the height CORE
spending to the temperature at which
it is desired to keep the room, the cir
cult IS closed, and the gas is cut oil
from the burners; but, If the mercury
falls below this point, electric contact IS
broken, the valve is opened, and the
water heated and caused to circulate in
the pipes which pass around the room
and retsrn to the boiler. This auto
matte arrangement has been found to
keep the temperature within a range of
two degrees.
