II Ex Congressman Brady,o Vieginla,wh
i was for many years an able lieutenant
# the late Gen. Malone, says that Mr. Rec
IL is the present favorite of the Virginia K
n publicans for the Presidential nomination
,e but that he will not undertake to say VIII
"a the sentiment will be when the time com
for selecting delegates to the nomlnatiI
convention. Speaking of how the Sou
will vote next year, Mr.. Brady said IT
South is for Protection. The issue is sol
