TIE DRAWBACK OF DEFECTIVE r1rLRs-

There is general impression abroad that
large number OF Virginia's titles are defec-
tive, and that there exists danger OF purchas
ing litigation. The receiver Of the Piedmont l.
Arlington Life Insurance Company reports
among the securities held by that limited and
short-lived institution are many whose titles
are very doubtful Now the query arises how
many doubtful titles may there be In the whole
state? A judgment taken In any county be-
and yet no transcript be entered for year.

and contain provisions In relation to property
In distant counties unknown, and a cOdicil or
original provisions may lie dormant for a like
period In still another county, and still be

states, a search" should be search. -conclu-
sive and satisfactory. And there are many other
points that need undermining, and then IL the
true advantages and capabilities OF the state
were advertised with the energy displayed by a
Guilty In drawing In class OF people who could
bulld up her waste places. There are over
TWELVE MILLION ACRES OF IMPROvEABLE LAND
In the state. and the Quakers OF Loudon have
brought up theirs to a taxable value of $50 per
acre. And what has been effected there can be
any where. There are hundreds of thousands
OF morse power OF unused water which liberal
care would bring In to use, and iron ores widely
dlnused and tneXhaustable. which intelligent
legislation could open up. There is brilliant
future for Virginia, and 1t can be a near future
If her rulers can be led to realize her advan-
tages and to display a little western energy In
making them known. OBSERVER

The MOreY Letter.

NIX. kENWARD PHILIP CALLS ON THE PRESIDENT.
Among the callers at the White House to-day
was Kenward Philip, who is well-known to the
country through the association OF his name
with the forged Morey letter. He was accom-
panied by Mr.. VIM. Halliday, who has immedI-
ate charge OF Mr.. Philips affairs relating to that
letter. When asked by THE STAR reporter about
his object In calling on the President. Mr.. Philip
said, laughingly, that as President Garfield and
himself were the only two people who were
injured by the forged letter, he wanted to ask
the President to divide his salary with him.
Seriously, he said, the district attorney at New
YORK had notified his counsel, Judge Veeder
and c. w. Brooks. that it was the intention to
drop the prosecution OF him. The district attor-
ney would go into open court and make state
ment, unqualified and emphatic, that the
theory OF the prosecution concerning Philip was
false from the start. Immediately thereafter
Mr. Pnllp says. he will commence suit for false
Imprisonment against the district attorney aud
for malicious prosecution against Geo. H. Bliss.
