Democrats Target Virginia Boss Mahone’s Rebel Republicans
Washington reports Virginia Democrats rally to overthrow Ross Mahone’s control in the fall state legislature race. They accuse federal offices of partisan graft and praise past reforms that saved about $100 million, urging the next Congress to curb extravagance despite Mahone allies in the Senate. The Barbour-led faction promises thorough organization to draw Virginia into the Democratic column for 1884.

Let Us Have a Speedy Change in Washington
In Washington on July 26 the census bureau faces mass clerical losses as civil service rules are sidestepped. One hundred fifty bureau clerks may receive indefinite leaves and be moved to other departments as transfers rather than vacancies. Critics call it an abuse of power and an affront to justice, signaling flagrant management in the capital.
