RICHMOND, Va, Aug. 20.-The Demo
Gratis think they will be able to pass the Nc,
Cormick election bill at this session.
This is the same bill declared by the Court
of Appeals to be illegal because of the free
holder clause which will be omitted in the
new bill.
In the Senate to-day the bill passed by
the House of Delegates providing for the
appointment of assessors of land in every
county and city in the State, has been dis
cussed nearly all day.
This measure provides for the appoint
ment of these officers by the State Auditor.
This feature is opposed by MIR. kolner' OF
Augusta, and some other democrats.
Amendments have been offered TO strike
out this clause and elect by the people aud
by the Legislature.
