TIat 100000 Acre Sale.

II will be remembered by the
readers Of the Register that in the
latter part Of June, the New York
papers chronicled a sale at auction
In that city of body Of timber and
mineral lands, said TO be situated in
Mcdowell county, West Virginia
and to contain 100000 acres. The
lands were Represented TO be heavily
wooded, principally withwhite oaks,
underlying which it was claimed
were extensive beds Of coal and iron
ore. An abstract tracing the title
back to the issue of letters patent,
dated May 10th, 1895, by the com.
monwealth of Virginia to the Hon.
George F. Whyte; and showing them
to have come into the possession Of
James NJ. Flagg in 1874, was printed
and circulated through the salesroom
ut the time Of the sale.
AT the time the Register exposed
the fraudulent character Of the trans
action, and showed from official stat
istics and other trustworthy sources
of information that the parties sell
ing could by no possibility have u
good title to the lands. But, before
the purchase money was paid, par-
ties interested wrote to the proper
officers in Mcdowell county, and re-
ceived a reply covering a certificate
under the seal Of the county aud
and signed by the President Of the
County Court and his two associates,
a former President Of the same Court,
the clerks of the County and Circuit
Courts, and the Commissioner Of
School Lands. These officials unite
in saying;
at is but repetition Of the many
gross dcceptions practiced by the sale
Of fraudulent titles to lands purport-
ing to be situated in our section and
county, all Of which is a great in:
justice to those owning substantial
and lawful titles, 10 real estate
amongst US, and who would people
our country with good and useful
citizens, SO needful to the develop.
ment Of the vast acknowledged
wealth ofthis region"
They unite in saying that no val
id title exists to such a tract as the
one sold. Therefore, the transaction
was never completed-no money
having been paid on the sale. The
parties who made the sale, as we
have heretofore noted, have since
been put under arrest in Chicago,
for participating in other fraudulent
land Observation-Disclosures.

MUSIC IN THE AIR.
TSanday Delta.


The signing of the Moffett Register
Bill by the Governor yesterday, although
not unexpected, created quito stir
among saloon men and liquor dealers.
There was a universal denunciation of
Gov. Nichols course in the matter and
a determined resolve to resist the ell
forcement Of the measure, by every means
at the command of its opponents.
The effect of his approval of tbs STU
pid and imperative act will DO simply to
deprive the State of the licenses from
the liquor dealers, as we'll as the tax,
for at least Il year.
In the fight to DO made against the il
liberal, unjust and, we can say, uncon-
stitutional measure, the Delta will give
it's aid and support to those who propose
to resist an illegal, oppressive scheme, to
enrich bondholders at the expense Of Il
large an important business interest OF
tho city and State.

CHICAN EkY.

We occasionally hear the remark
made that the Democratic party
has failed to fulfill it's pledges and
that the needed reforms were not
accomplished. When these remarks
are made by good and true Demo
Gratis we know that they are utter
ed with feeling Of deep regret
With them it is an opportunity
lost which should have beer i'm
proved. But when these assertions
are made by another and an en-
.irely different class of men we
know that they are actuated hy
far different motives. Occupying
question: le political posui rs,
having ben flesh and fish, they
try to make capital of, and bring
down to their own level a noble Or
ganizltion that has withstood the
shock of the enemy and their
detection. They would hold the
democratic party responsible be-
cause the last legislature fell far
short of public expectation. They
operate upon the mas, es by telling.
them that their taxes have not been
reduced !; that their assessments
have been increa ed and they have
even the unbInshing hardihood t"
compare the par-i in power with
rotten and corrupt radicaIiSm.
They 90 among their fellow men
as does the snake among reptiles.
the slime they leave behind them
traces them to thci" hannts.
1t is orr candid opinion that all
such men will find it difficult to de-
molish The party in power. We
rather incline to the belief that
the people are tired and in no
mood to tolerate any such prac-
ticc The coming camnaign
promises to be bitter one, aud
men will be required to make their
charges clearly, and rot by insin-
nations. The people of this State
and parish now in authority have
sacrificed everything in order to
again control the destiny of This
State. and those who. ATTEMPT TO
snatch from them their hard earned
and costly prize must be fully pre-
pared to submit to the consc-
qucnces. u on an issue squarely
and properly made we submit to
defeat, out we say it now that the
nco,le will not tolerate chicanery.
Those who use this weapon IN the
coming contest will be rudely j,s-
