Jorlty OF the white people III the state,
and that the exaltation of the negro is
more 20 be feared from Democrats than
Republicans.
After charging the Democrats with be-
ing the party of fraud and ballOt-oox
suffers he turned his attention TO the
State debt He claimed TO have q plan to
settle the debt and said the Democrats are
very anxious 20 find out what this plan IS,
but he is determined they shall not know,
for if they do they will try to steal the
ideas Of the Republicans and cry Me,
too" He regarded it sufficient to say the
manner IN which he proposes TO settle the
debt will not take n cent of increase OF
taxes from the pockets of taxpayers and
will leave S250,0OO IN the State Treasury
that is not there at present.
After announcing that he will be elected

effort. and Sheriff j. w. Southward and
Judge Waddill entertained the voters for
short time.
The Democrats
The day was the Democrats.
Mahone's crowd, both as to size and on
thusiasm. was failure and the Republi-
cans were evidently disappointed.
About 400 Of the honest yeOmen OF Hano-
yer had turned ont 10 hear Major Tyler
and Hon. Il. II. Cardwell discuss the issues
Of the canvass. Well were they paid by
the addresses they heard.
Major Tyler came down to Ashland from
Milford Station yesterday morning and
went TO the residence Of Mr.. i. G. H..
Scott, the county chairman. These two
gentlemen drove in buggy to the Court
house. and our candidate was the centre
of a group Of admirers until the speaking
began.
TIP MEETING.
The Democrats didn't commence their
speaking until after Mr.. Burrows had been
talking some time.
At the appointed hour Mr.. Cardwell left
the clerks Office and started for the court
room. escOrting Major Tyler. As the crowd
saw their familiar figures pass across the
court-greon the Democrats who had been
listening TO Mr.. Burrows started for the
court-house yelling Tyler" Tyler ~
Mr.. Burrows was left with between 200 and
300 colored people and few whites.
ANOTHER ATTRACTION.
About this time two men appeared upon
the scene leading big bear, which was
conducted to one corner Of the yard, and
the owners pocketed many nickel by
passing around their hats after Brun had
performed his funny tricks.
Now occurred another break in the Re-
publican ranks. as nearly half of tho ne
grOes went over TO watch the bear climb
trees and walk on his hind-legs and per-
form many other qmusing tricks.
CALLED TO ORDER.
The Democrats could not all get into the
courthouse. though every available seat
in it was occupied and all standing space
was taken.
Hon. Il. II. Cardwol called the meeting
TO order, stating that he had been request
Al ~ 49, oil
He called upon Or. B l.. Winston TO
preside.
After returning his thanks for the honor
of presiding at such representatiye as,
semblagc, DR.. Winston asked Mr.. Cardwcll
to introduce Major J. Hoge Tyler.
MR.. CALDWELL.
Mr.. Cardwcll. before presenting the next
Lieutenant Governor. made a few telling
remarks. lie referred TO "the circus" in
one corner of the courtyard and the bear
show in the other. Speaking OF Malone,
lee said John Wise and the best Republi-
cans have deserted him, claiming he Is the
most outrageous tyrant that walks the
earth. Where is Cameron, Riddleberger,
Lewis, the Yosts, Wise and other good Re
publicans?" asked the speaker. They
are telling you people to beware OF that
man out there"
Continuing, Mr. Cardwell said IF Ma
hone had waited for an escort of the tax
pavers of Hanover to bring him here no
would not have had cOrpOraPs guard.
There is their meeting. They have been
drummed up from Richmond, Louisa, New
Kent, aud Kin9 William. That Is all the
audience Malone can get IN this section.
He is accompanied to Hanover by one hum
dred negroes from Richmond and rev
white men who hold Office and Others who
ar L.. ...l. Oh. ont
there comes from. The same attraction
that draws 10 the bear draws to Malone.
/ do not want to stay all night with either
the bear or Malone, but between the two
would prefer the bear as an associate.
Speaking further. hlr. Cardwell said A;
"Who has Malone here 20 speak for him
Has Burrows any interest in Virginia
Such is not the case. Way of from the
northwest corner of the country Malone
finds a man whom he brings here 10 en-
tighten YOU people Of Hanover, and when
read YOU what Burrows said IN Congress II
YOU people have not already made up your
minds how to vote you should blush with
shame when you 20 homo 80 your wives
and children. ! tell Won 1t Is a remarkable
degree of impudcncc and assurance that
that man possesses to come to tins sacred
soil and speak TO Nlrginiens after he has
uttered such sentiments aS | will read TO
Won presently. ! Judge man by the COM
pany he keeps, and Malone is certainly IN
bad company and is tackled on to bad
man at present"
LIT THEM COMR.
At this point some twenty-five or thirty
people came in from the Republican meet
ing. and Mr.. Cardwell had to stop his
speech few minutes while the newcomers
were trying TO get into the room. Con-
tinuing. the speaker said: Let them come
on. This is the old ship of Zion, and Will
land YOU all safely on November 9Th. That
little ship out there is going to pieces, and
even sensible colored men will not be
caught in the wreck
Here Mr.. Cardwell read from the Con-
qreSsionGl Record that Mr.. Burrows refused
To vote for some educational measure be-
cause the bill did not provide for mixed
schools. "I dare say he will not repeat
the words attributed to him in the Record
while he is here III Virginia" SAID the
speaker, "and such man Is unworthy to
be our instructor"
After reading what Mr.. Burrows said in
Congress about southern people, Mr.. Card
well said "Of all the impudence and ei-
frOntery this Is the greatest, and l con-
gratulate you people that Malone and his
man without their congregation OF imml-
grants have not enough people here to
scare an owl out of the trees.
MAJOR TYLER.
Closing his remarks. which had been
loudly applauded. Mr.. Cardwell intro
duced Major Tyler as curiosity-a man
who had made success at farming: as
one of the truest and best men in the
State. and as one who does not want mixed
schools, thereby TO break up the pleasant
relations between white and colored peo-
pie.
As the Major appeared upon the stand
three hearty cheers were given for the next
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
The speaker was in fine trim, and with
his pointed arguments and amusing anec-
dotes held the attention of the crowd re-
markably well. lie said he had always
heard Malone was a man-nothing more
but some one had pointed out bear in the
ward and told him that was the General.
Major Tyler carefully sketched hereford
of the two parties. and showed that the one
To which Malone belongs is of fraud and
corruption and should be Stunned by all
good people. He showed how the Demo
cratic party has always been the friend OF
the workingman and the farmer, and that
the affairs of the State will be safe in no
other hands. The speaker told his audi
once that his marty is not in favor OF Tree
