To The Editor of a,e Dispatch:
Now that the people Of Virginia have
spoken i'm no uncertain tones. and as It Is
evident that the big Doodle" sent down
bv South-haters at the North to buy up
Vircinians did not work IF il was ever
spent as was intended no one will be sur
priscd TO learn that the little patent - baby
crIer" has again commenced his old
cry Of " fraud" Whatever else may
have ovortaken the late little boss
it is evident that his lung power
is still in healthy condition TO try
and deceive again Harrison, Foraker,
ClarksOn. Quay, Dudley, &C., &c. Yes,
Virginia is Just like New York. and so
when our good, soft, civii-service-re-
form President set his heart on making
the people of Virginia fall down and wor-
ship first, Harrison, and second. Ma
hone such people kicked furlously,"
Just as the people of New York kicked
when the then Republican Administration
tried 10 ram down the Threats of the
voters of New York a man for Gov
ernor that such people did not want.
The result IN New York was that the Adj
ministrati0a candidate was showed I'M
der" TO the tune of 10000 votes and Mr..
Cleveland was elected Governor. That
attempt by the HAYES Administration Il
think it was) to govern the local affairs y
of the State of New York was the cause OF
Mr.. Cleveland being nominated and elect
ell President of the United States. The
people of New York revolted at the ATTEMPT
of the then President and his advisers TO
dictate TO them who they should elect
Governor, and such attempt was re-
bukod in no uncertain sound. The
honest truth Is, no man, nor the
people of any State like for others to
NEEDLE IN matters that don't concern the
latter, and therefore it was perfectly natu-
raj that the. people Of New York should
have arisen in their might and buried deep
the candidate that the Administration
wanted to cram down their Threats Nir-
GINA last Tuesday but followed in the
footsteps Of the people OF New York,
and yet as soon as the fact Is
learned the little patent baby crier y
again commences his cry Of " fraud. "
No such cry was raised when Cleveland
beat the Administration candidate for
Governor of New York 10, 600 votes. That
was all right, but Just as soon as a similar
revolution. grounded on the same cause
and in part takes place in the South, 10
and behold the little patent "baby crier y
commences at once his same old cry, and
which cry he doubtless now puts up with
a view of again fOOlng soft men (SOuth-
haters) at the North and for his
own profit. He has certainly worked
this sort of game in times past
with great profit and success, for you
doubtless remember how time after time
just before an election he declared he and
his party would certainly carry the State. "
Some of his predictions were so far wide OF
the mark that it looks strange to me how
SOuth-haters at the North could have after
wards placed any faith IN his predictions.
When licked the cry time after time
went up that he was beaten by fraud. u
la the last election much Doodle was doubt
less sent him, but how it was spent your
correspondent don't pretend to know
Perhaps some of his party were Sc
"venal" that the doodle" failed to cir
culate" on election-day as was Intended
/ hardly suppose Harrison. Quay, Dudley,
and ClarksOn will ever call for statement
giving in detail the way the doodle went
and who handled it. Possibly If full and
true statement of the matter could be had
Mr.. Blocks-of-Five Dudley would he q
wiser man than he is now. If the South
haters at the North are content that the
Doodle sent down South" was properly
spent. bless your souls, the con
servativo people Of Virginia will dc
nothing to make them dissatisfied,
as the money sent don't seem TO hurt any
body but the soft giyers of il. These lat
ter people would have been wiser had they
remembers that Malone killed off (by his
ways) the nomination of Mr. Arthur IN
1884. and that his help to Sherman for the
nomination in 1888 proved u milestone
around the neck of the latter. Mr.. Harri-
son, Judge, has been made very sick by
Malone, but if he don't drop him" his
political hopes will certainly be buried
deeper than one Foraker was by the
people of Ohio recently. Mahone's
touch has often proved worse than leprosy.
Finally, soft South-haters should have
remembered that they were warned by ex-
Senator Lewis, Ex-Governor Cameron, eX-
Representatives WISE and Yost. and very
many other - true blue" Republicans that
Malone would be showed under by a
great majority" IL such prominent Re
publicans are not good witnesses. then soft
SOuth-haters would not believe If one
"arose from the dead" and so the next
time the little "baby crier" wants
more doodle" 10 carry Virginia they Will
again shell out TO him. Whenever the
latter ceases TO be done then Malone Will
be so dead that it will not be necessary to
call in q doctor to see if the vital spark has
fed. | said his nomination was the weak
est one the Republicans $50 called in Vir-
ginia could have made, and think the re-
suit has indicated the correctness OF my
prediction.
Thanks TO God that Foraker and "small
William have been buried. for the present
at least. A. NJ. @.
