wAsnNoroN, March 20.--A Virginian who
Keeps thoroughly posted on the movements
Of the politicians informs the Dispatch cor.
respopdent that William Malone has about
made up his mind 10 become the Republican
candidate for Governor OF Virginia this
wear. IL will be remembered that there
have been several references in this cor
rrspondence % conferences held here AZ
winch the gubernatorisl question was se.
Tiously considered by the followers OF Ma
hone. and on more than one OF these occa-
sions IL. has been proposed 10 Malone that
he ought TO make The race. AT first be
did not take kindly to the sugges-
ton. sud even now 70 Ia said that
he would much prefer 10 have some one
else 20 for thst nomination II II could be
done with any certainty that Malone would
not be regarded a. one who hsd lost his hold
upon the Republicans Of the State. The
informant OF the Dispaich's correspondent
went so far * 10 say a. do not now think
there is any doubt that Malone Will be
candidate. and YOU will rot miss the mark II
YOU print statement 10 This effect. The
Tact OF the matter IL things have taken such
fhspe that Malone Is bound 10 run for Gov
srnor lie Is being urged 20 make the race
by nearly all Of his followers. and from all
can gather be has consented.
THE PROGRAMME.
The programme is 10 nominate General
James A. Walker. OF Pulaski, for Lieuten-
ant.Governor II he will have It and promise
10 send him "a the United states senate to
succeed Mr. Daniel in the event OF Repu0-
icsn success
Tho MnhOneIies who are now i'm Wash
ineton are decidedly non-committal. They
vii, not talk shout their plans, and efforts
% ind out whether or not Malone really
intends to set himself up as the candidate
f,r Governor met with fat reIusals 10 talk
There Is much gossip 10 this effect, how
ever. aud it is given for what II is worth.
Malone makes bis headquarters at Cham
heriin's. and nearly every day his henehmen
20 up there 10 see him. lie hasn't yet had
any evidence that this Administration Is
going 10 recognize him, and until ne finds
our where he stands be positively refuse 10
endorse any more applications for office. Be-
fore Harrison WAS inaugursted 1t Is said
that NahOne signed a number OF apphct-
tons. Claiborne, formerly OF Franklin
county, but now % Roanoke city. and who
Sskuown in Virgins AZ the Lizard Judge"
went W 10 see Malone yesterday. lie want
Cd TIE Nould-be boss 10 sign an application
al q certain party who desires 10 bc post
master At Blacksburg, but Malone declined
20 10 go.
A PELLOW-FEELING.
Ex-senator William Pitt Kellogg, OF Lou
lsiana, finds himself pretty much in the same
position ~ Malone. Kellogg counted on
controlling the patronage o. the Pelican
STATE, but he has not been able 10 do so.
Coleman. the new Republican congressman
from New Orleans. has gotten the
swing. Coleman has been blowing
around about building up ere
Epectable" Republican party in the
South. and he has not paid any attention
70 the demands Of the Louisiana negroes VINO
want piares. lie has had marshal and an
appraiser appointed in bis State, ana both
AR white men. Jhe negroes who have come
On from Louisiana looking for places have
been depending on Kellogg, but be has not
one tenth the influence that Congressman
Coleman has. Unless AL the signs isil II VIII
lie found that when the Virginia patronage
:. dealt out COugrcssmen BOwden ana
browne will dictate the appointments.
There are four Republican congressman
from Missouri, and they seem TO have the
pull on ihe psp, though. Of course, Secretary
Noble. Of the Interior Department, being
FROM the same State. will have something to
cay about the places given 10 Aissourlans.
WILL HARDLEY SUCCEED.
Fx-Cougressman John X. Brown, OF Viz
Vinis. who at one time was thinking OF be-
ing a candidate for DOorkeeper OF the House
an applicant Tor The POSITION Of Fourth Au-
Cltor of The Treasury. tie VIII hardly suc-
coed. 10 really doesn't look SIS II any Ntr-
plnis Republican will get so good position
here at Washington az Fourth Auditor.
it's rcported that some Of The Virginia
md North Carolina applicants Tor once are
being worked" by brace OF sharp fellows,
who make the aspirsnts whack up expense
money for their time and trouble IN intro
ducing them to public men. They have
leeu bleeding some Of the asprants for rs
much as SIS al whack il all the stories told
here are true.

fssue his proclamation tomorrow relative 10

million acres Of land in Oklahoma. II stated
Nv persons here Interested in the Oklahoma
boom that several hundred people IN Nir-
ginia have signided their intention OF gong

WISE AND HARRISON.
John :. Wise had an extended interview
with President Harrison Yesterday, and y Is
learned thai he told the President that.
although his name bad been mentioned ia
connection with the scramble for the solicit
t0r.generAlsbip, he had but one favor TO
ask OF the Administration 90 far a. he was
personally concerned, and that was the ap-
pOintmept OF bis sou ~ cadet 10 the Mill
tary Academy st West Point The PreSi-
dent hiss the right to appoint several cadets
a. larye. and il Is one Of these that WISE
wants for his bov. lie would like for bis
son TO enter West Point next year.
GRowiNG DESPERATE.
The President is so slow M sending In nom-
iDatious hat the olico-scekers are actually
growing desperatc. Fred. Grant did net get
lie Chinese mission after ALL al ne vaSnOmi-
mated 10. day to be Minister 10 Austria. lie
l,d his heart set on going TO the Celestial
Tmpire. but Benjamin was stubborn, snd
me Young man who gets the honor solely on
account OF being the son OF bis father VIII
have to take this or nothing. Things nave
come to pretty pass when sucn man ~
Ired. Grant j. 10 represent this Government
NJ Emperor Francis Joseph's court. But
f,r hearing the name OF Grant Colonel Fred.
Nvouid never have been thought OF
{,rthiS or anv other lucrative place. III
thrown on MS own resources Ike any DINER
Young man he could not earn $1,000 year.
It's the same way with that Young stripping
Walker Blaine. The grizzly old politicians
and the bone and Sinew OF this land VIII
hardly approve Of some OF the carry appoint
Ipepts Of the Harrison Administration. Inc
vounv Blslpes and Grants ought TO be maJe
a. earn their living lust like other people
snd moi be psmpered aud fed by TINS Gov
ernmen, when there are more capable men
