Philad. Times, cf I AA AAA Juay and Mahone had a reeting, a few dave ago, to concoct a scheme to treat the election of Virginia as if it had not been Leld, and them eried aloud “that Democratic frands shall not be tol- erated” to divert attention from the ras cality which they intended to commit, Quay consorting with a fellow like Ma that the Pennsylvania trickater is no better than the Virginia Arnold. Quay's threat to do dire things with the Democrats if they attempt any counting out in Virginia is spitting gainst the wind Let Matt Quay, onderstand that be can't bully or scare the Democracy of a single county far less the Democratic hosts of the United States, when he talks what he will do with a “mailed hand. Such bombast from the biggest corrmpter and thief of ballots in America is simply laughable. Fellows that will help steal a Presi- dency and plot to cheat scores of con gressmen of their seats, and who have debauched the politics of Pennsylvania by ways mo t vile, need to ery ''stop thief.” Quay is only a low trickster, with no ability, save that cunning and shamefaced rascality against honest suf- frage is his fort and in the practice of these hie is of great service to his party, but be can’t scare the Democracy—not one bit, und they see through the scheme which he and Mahone are planuving. Quay must know that the Democracy hone, proves great triumvirate who ma Je and unmade the fortanes of those who depended upon public office, to steal a single Democratic congressman in Virgivia or elsewhere.
