New York Times.

A Washington dispatch appeared on
the first page of Mr.. Cyrus W. Fields
paper yesterday which will be found in
another column. 1t states that " Mr..
Blaine's friend, Mr.. II. G. Parsons"
has been advocating before the House
Judiciary Committee scheme " for the
United States to free Virginia from the
load of debt falling upon her by the
separation of West Virginia" it
points out that /" Mr.. Blaine in his
book, came out boldly and adj
vocated the payment of this vast
debt by the General Government"
and it adds "If Mr.. Blaine and Mr..
Parsons could get that bill through
virginia's twenty-four votes in the next
National Convention would be Mr.
Blaine's. 1t appears to have dawned
on the mind of Mr.. Fields editor rather
suddenly that this candid explanation Of
the motive of the bill referred to would
not aid to "get it through Demo-
cratic House or even through Repub.
licao Senate in which so many Of Mr..
Blaine's rivals have votes, aud the dis
patch was in later edition buried in
the still.deeper obscurity Of an inside
page.
