The Campaign in the Southwest

The campaign was opened in the
Southwest, on Monday last. Gen. Ma
hone was billed far and near for the eff
fort of his life, with several other speak
ers to assist, and the Democrats had
Senator Daniel, r. L. Scott, and r. T..
Barton to represent their SIDE A Joint
discussion proposed by the Democrats,
was declined by Mahone's friends. Gen.
Malone spoke to about 700 people, at
first, according to the Baltimore Suns
correspondent, but before he concluded
the crowd had dwindled to less than half
that number. His speech lasted two
hours and after its close he was com
pletely exhausted and retired to his bed
He discussed free ballot, the race ques-
ton and the tariff. 1t came with bad
grace from Malone to speak of fair elec-
lions and fair voting. His whole poIiti=
cal history has been an assault upon the
rights of the people. both Republicans
and Democrats, in this respect. He re-
spects neither the ballot nor the right of
opinion, where either conflicts with his
plans. By the use of his party machine
ry he does not hesitate to suppress the
voice of the majority. To accomplish

nees of the party and to violate every

will the rule to govern parties, and only
such as will obey him and enforce his
orders are considered members of the
party.
His plea for a protective tariff was
neither novel nor original. 1t was a re-
hash of arguments framed by better
men and prepared in better form. The
protection that Virginia wants just now,
more than any other, is protection
against Mahoneism. That is the menace
to her peace and prosperity, and until
that is effected, the popular mind will
give very little thought to the platitudes
of this arch-plotter against her material
life

Fundamental Principles

Deputy Collector Allen is reported by
the Vindicator as appealing to the he
publicans of Augusta not to surrender
fundamental principles in this contest
and for the sake of fundamental prln-
ciples'' to vote for Malone. The kind OF
fundamental principles Mr.. Allen prob
ably meant may be inferred from United
States District Attorney Cralgs inter
probation of the issues involved. Craig S
appeal to his hearers was based upon d
hope of favors to come. He said only
one instalnent of the offices had been
distributed The Cd, Sd and 4th had
to come and the faithful workers would
be remembered. In the first dlstr1bu-
ton, Allen secured one small 'funda-
mental principle in the, shape OF d.
vision Collector of Internal Revenue
and Craig, more lucky, was favored with
much larger fundamental principle
in the form of $4,000 salary, or fees
which will aggregate that. Such are the
fundamental principles" of Mahoneism,
and it is to the mercenary motives OF
men that appeal is made to support Ma
hone
Are the Republicans of Augusta coun-
ty and the Republicans of Virginia who
believe in the principles OF the Repub-
lican party as they relate to the policies
of government, prepared to give their
endorsement to the appeal that was
made to them on the 18th? Are they
prepared to endorse the Fundamental
principles of Mahoneism, that office is
the beginnings and the ending OF party as
sociation-the paramount object OF par
ties and the governing motive In party
Identification 1t was for this object
that Malone. by false assurances, in
duced the administration to give HIM
practically the control of the Federal
patronage in Virginia. 1t is in this
way that he is distributing it. as re
ward for services to Mahone-as means
to draw men to his support, and prostl-
tute their manhood to subserve the most
| detestab political influence that ever
cursed State.
There are thousands upon thousands
of Republicans in Virginia, and many
of them in Augusta county and the
Valley, who are such because of the
principles of the party, and who have
maintained their convictions when it
required courage to be Republican,
/ that will never subscribe to any such de-
grading doctrine. They do not recog-
nize in it the Republicanism for which
they have endured so much of contu-
mely and ostracism, but bastard thing
called Nah oneism and will never give it
the sanction OF an honest ballot. Now
that the whole game of Mahoneism is
being exposed as simply a crusade fol
spoils and plumber, they will wipe theil
hands clean of it, and help to bury it out
of sight.

Malone Desperate.

The endeavor of the VIRGINIAN to
hold this contest down to the issue
of the People against Malone as pre-
scented by Gen. Malone himself, seems
to have aroused the anger of that gen
tleman and invited his wrath upon the
editor OF the VIRGINIAN. AS we are
not before the people for any public po-
sition or for popular endorsement, it is
a matter of Indifference to us what Gen.
Malone may say. Whenever it is peril
nent for our record to be discussed and
the people to be enlightened upon mat
ters purely personal in their nature, we
will be amply prepared for it. When,
in the matter referred to, we have the
endorsement of such men as Gov. VIM.
Smith, Col Robert Ould, Confederate
Secretary of War Randolph, Judge H.
w. Shelley, Gen. w. H. Hartman, and
later, President U. s. Grant and Post
Master General J. W. Marshall, and 9th
ers equally honored and distinguished,
we can afford to allow the little lsh-
maelite to vent his rage. We cannot be
diverted from the duty we owe to the
Republicans of Virginia in this canvass,
of exposing Mahoneism and its sins, by
any malignant and mendacious attack
upon us personally. When that becomes
an issue and matter of concern to the
people of this State, we will meet it to
the satisfaction of all manly and honor
able men. 1t is one of the devices of
Mahonesism, when its malign influence
and mischieyOus purpose are brought
to the attention of the public, to seek
to draw the popular mind away from it
by irrelevant assaults of a personal ma
ture. 1t confesses the truth of its ar
raignment by seeking to cover itself in
mantle of affected virtue to hide its
hideous deformity. But this it will not
be allowed to do in this canvass. The
sary foran honest Judgment. If they SHALL
after they have become fully informed
invite Boss and usurper to take charge
of the interests of this Commonwealth,
they will have none others to blame but
themselves. We propose to do our duty
as a hepuDllcal anu cltlZen, anu 90 IL
to the best of our ability, and leave the
issue then with the soyereigns of the
State to be determined by them as they
may seem best. We are very sure they
will never invite upon themselves the
calamity of Mahoneism-the control of
! all the great concerns of Virginia to be
placed in the hands of a man who has
not thought above self, and would
prostitute every interest and paralyze
every endeavor, to subserve his selfish
ends Mahoneism is the paramount and
absorbing question to be decided, wheth
er it is to dominate in the affairs of the
State, at the expense of the peace and
progress of the peoples or be consigned to
an everlasting death

A Statement.

Last week we announced that Maj
Edward Mcmahon had declined the
nomination for Republican candidate
for the State Senate, and that he would
not support Gen. Malone. This we did
upon the authority of Maj. McMa-
hon, himself Last Monday card was
read from the speakers stand by Col.
Allen, which was prepared by W. E.
Craig, differing materially from the orig
inal letter of declension, and signed by
Maj. Mcmahon, in which he states that
he will support Gen. Malone. This
much is due to US apd due to the facts of
the case, We have no disposition 10
pursue the matter further, unless it be-
comes necessary to do so.

Col. Lamb.

Col. Lamb. who spoke for Gen. Ma
hone last Monday, is one of the first
men of either party, in the State. We
would have cheerfualy supported him
for Governor, had he been nominated at
Norfolk, Notwithstanding our honest be-
lief that the Convention itself was NJ t
a Republican Convention, nor represen-
tative of Republican sentiment. We
should have supported the man as a man
and Il Republican, and not as the nomi-
nee of Mahone's caucus.
We regret that We are compelled to
differ with him and other good Repub-
licans in the State. After Malone is
buried in November next, we hope to
see Republicanism properly organized
and represented in Virginia, and with
that effected, we can go on to success.

business, ought to be there. Fhere will,
no doubt, be matters to interest the Re

Republicans from every part of the State
should be given. We expect to be and
others from the Valley will be present.
