New Orleans. 1t is hoped that be will re-

wss willing to suffer for the faith that vas

Now, when it is remembered that tens OF

as choice of evils, and when it ia well
known that many thousand Republicans

thousand Republicans voted for Mckinney,
the people cannot fail to know that the cry

General Malone now declares that Hmany
thousands of votes cast at the late election
were stolen through the use of tissue bal
lots" By the Democrats! Now is thaS not
cool? Can anybody point to character
in fiction or IN history that approaches Ma
hone in the matter Of downright cheek?
Here he is charging the very Identical fraud
upon the Democrats which he was detected
in himself! Malone is a rare bird, and no
mistake.~-Lynehburg Ne'cs.
This nothing Iew on the past of Malone,
for it has been for years his Uniform rule to
charge the Democrats with the purpose Of
committing offences which he himself in.
tended TO perpetrate. He has always,
metaphorically speaking. cried ''stop thief
when he was running away With the stolen
property. He has always charged upon
Others the offences of which he himself was
guilty. This is well understood in this

The recent political campaign in Ohio result
ed we'll In some particulars, although at vari.
ance with the calculations of the previously
dominant party. The candidate for Governor
was defeated, by many thousand votes. while
the remainder of the State ticket was elected
This result has not been due so much to issues
as to individual characteristics. The third
term aspirant, brilliant and partisan, capable
and am bilious, was SO much the embodiment
of bossism and arrogance. and SO much given
to the use of the power of his position to pro-
mote personal aspirations, that large number
of adherents to his political party could not
and would not cast their votes in support OF
him. Coupled with this YVES the work OF

lowering itself to a level with the worst prac-
tices of any political promoters ever known in
the community, in distortion and malicious
attack and misrep resentation. in persistent
acts inconsistent with honorable endeavor.
while at the same time pretending to be the
champion of good order. The State will not
suffer by the defeat of such a candidate. The
community would experience a sense of relief
and satisfaction If the journalist who performs
and inspires such bad work In the local news
paper could be as efectually quleted. That
Journalist is truly "blister" on this commun-
ity. doing more to its M aterial Injury than any
eyil-disposed gang OF political robbers have
ever done.

disease among poultry the past summer, and
