on virginia. The friends OF llber-
IL and free government in every
State are looking with hreatllesS
expectation to see what will be the
result of the great political battle
that is to he fought next Tuesday
iii the Old Dominion, and which is
TO decide whether this grand old
Commonwealth is still to he kept
in safe and honest hands, or wheth-
er shn is TO I've handed over to Ma
hone and his black cohorts to be
Inundated and disgraced for the
next four years. Mahone is rn.
gagged in a life and-death struggle
and he is fighting with all the des.
rerate energy of Il man who knows
that defeat now means utter pO!it-
ical extinction. He is aided by the
powerful influence of the Federal
Administration. which has practi
Gully placed at his disposal all the
government patronage and loads
of filthy Doodle with which to dc
hauch voters and hny his way to
power. He has brought from Michi-
gan the malignant bloody-Shirter
and Sonth-hater. JuliaS Caesar
Burrows. who advocates mixing
white children and negroes i'll the
public schools and who voted TO
keep Virginia ont of the Union be-
cause she provided in her constifu-
ton for separate schools for white
people and negroes.
When Malone had power in
Virginia he had negroes appointed
astrustees to manage white schools.
If he is elected Governor he will
20 it again. MANNED Confederate
soldiers will he tnrned out of Of
fee and able bodied negroes put
in their places, as, was done in the
dark days of1SS2 and 1888. The
,eign of law and order will cease,
and an era of disorder and unrest
will curse the land till returning
sense or revolutionary force shall
Iwrest The old State from his ty
raansMl grasp. Can it be that
any n loving Virginia and
knowing what manner of nan Ma
hone is, really wishes TO see him
elected Governor ofthis State next
Tuesday, 1t cannot be. Those
who know Malone beSt-the old
Republicans whom his tyranny has
driven ont their party-say that
four years of his corrupt autocratIc
rule in Virginia would set the State
back twenty five years, and leave
it in a worse condition than it was
at the close of the civil war. This
is as truly II contest between
Anglo.Saxon and negro supremacy
rs was the battle of Marathon or
Salames between European
and Asiatic supremacy in the
days of Grecian glory. Three
fourth of the votes that Mahone
will receive next Tuesday will he
cast by the regroes Of the State,
who we're made voters by the Re.
publican party to humiliate and
Cypress The Southern people. Will
the white men OF Virginia sit
quietly down and see this iniqsity
consummatedf We do not believe
it. From all parts of the State
come omens of certain victory. Tie
people are waking mp to the danger
that threatens their liberties. No
side issue of Prohibition nor any
other delusive phantom will draw
them away from the support of
that party on which Virginia relies
for safety in the perilous crisis OF
her history Let virginia's true
sons but do their duty on next
Tuesday, AMI a glorious victory is
already assured. The men whose
ancestors settled this country three
hundred years ago, laid the founda
lions OF great commonwealth
fought under Washington and
ach eyed independence, and in
more recent years followed Lee
and Jackson On many a hard
fought field--these men Will do
pattle for Virginia on Tuesday
next, and they are not going to be
beaten. They will rout the dark
legions of Malone and crash the
petty tyrant that is plotting to
subvert their liberties and enslave
their State. Let every patriotic
son of the OLD Dominion do his
part in the noble fight.
Don't fail to vote next Tuesday,
and ha -snre to vote rlght. Fire
