DEFERRED M ATT EE
Making it Red Hot

When the Democl attic Convention for
the 10Th district met in this place to nom
mate a candidate, the friends of Mr..
Tucker, after counting noses, felt very
sure he would be the successful competitor.
| Before the session was opened a crayOn
portrait Of Mr.. Tucker was concealed be
hind the stand and negatives of his face
taken by popular photographer Of Staun-
ton. When the nomination was announced
the crayon was projected above the heads
of the Audience, but did not cause the en-
| thusiasm that was calculated on, al
| Tucker badges flooded the streets at 10 cts
pit ce. Notwithstanding these facts Mr.
| Tucker opened his speech of acceptance
by stating that the result of tie action of
| the Convention had taken him by surprise.
and the speech he had prepared was to
| congratulate some ADLER aspirant for the
honor, and not in the line he then ad
dressed the delegates.
| These scenic devices. however, have been
Eeclipsed by the actual performance of Mr..
Tucker on the stump, In speech at a
point in Buckingham, or Appomattox in
an affected earnestness in the discussion of
the issues of the contest, he stripped off
his coat, vest, necktie and collar. At Cliff
ton Forge he again Invested himself of
these encumbrances, and tied his suspen-
ders around his waist. On both these oc
easions the weather was warm, and the
heat might have been some excuse for the
singular performance. At Amherst e..
H. it was different. The day was rainy and
! the air damp and crisp. But as he pro-
crossed with his remarks, he commenced
untleing his cravat, as we learn from the
Nelo Era. Some one in the audience, IN
derstanding the game, no doubt, called
upon him to take off his coat, and off the
coat, the vest and the suspenders came,
and then shout:
1t is true that This is an innovation upon
the manners and customs. of political
speakers in this part of Virginia at least,
but it is about as forcible an argument as
Mr.. Tucker has advanced, that we have
seen. 1t is the way he has chosen, how.
ever, to make the canvass red hot" He
works himself into the belief that this
kind of stage acting will arouse enthu-
siasm and capture votes. 1t will have
about as much effect as the prearrapg d
exhibition Oh the occasion Of his nomiua
tion, and will excite the disgust of the
sober, sensible people of the 10th district,
who wish TO have a serious and practical
discussion of the important questions now
before them for their votes: Playing har-
itquin will not answer. The issues in
volve the gravest interest of the Nation,
and no farcial SCENIC manifestations OF
burlesques will meet popular expectation,
The people have little common sense
and know when an attempt is made to fool
or mislead them.

Our esteemed contemporary of the Pc
tersburg hade.c-Apped argues for the re
suscitation of the old Wing party. 1t re-
oognlzes the fact that the principles of the
Republican party are almost identical
with those of the old Wing party, yet it
wants the Republican party to disintegrate
5sHsa upon its ruins re. establish the old
Wing party. The reason it assigns is that
the Republican party is sectional party
and is prejndiced against the South. 1t
says nothing about the propriety of the
Democratic party dissolving. 1t supports
that organization and opposes the Repub
lie N nominees, while it opposes Demo-
cratic policy and supports Republican pol
icy. We think if our contemporary would
take the beam out of it's own eye. it might
see clear and become convinced that the
Republican party and its policy are the
things the country needs just pow-not
a broad national understanding. When
we consider the achievements of the Re-
publican party and the failures of the
Democratic party, it would strike the
common mind that there is neither reason
nor common sense in the position the
I,eder Appeal assumes. To demand the
dissolution of the Republican party sim
| ply because Democrats don't like it
and are prejudiced against it, will not
! bring about that result. The Democratic
party has opposed every measure and all
legislation which have cont ibuted to
the dignity, unity, integrity and pro-
gress of the Nation? Is it for this
that it should be reserved and continued,
and the Republican party destroyed The
suggestion of our contemporary is not prac-
iical. The right thing for it to do would
be to unite with the party whose princi
pies it believes in and to divorce itself
from the party whose policy and purpose
it opposes. That would be consistent and
patriotic.

It did not occur to her to press
a reconveyance until about June
1st, 1887, after the time her son, at
their own domicile, had ruined and
blighted the life of the plaintiff under
promise of marriage, after her condi-
ton could be no longer concealed, and
w, en- it was a matter OF public notori-
ETY. that the plaintiff in her distress
had been dri ven from the Garcia
home, and who was then threatening
Elias with an action for damages ;
it was under these clrc UNI
stances that Elias made the
deed to his mother on the
pretended consideration of ten
dollars as q mere form, but claimed
in her ansae er to have been made in
consideration of a trust created by
parol eleven years PREVIOUS. Under
all the facts in this case l find both
defendants guilty OF fraud in making
the deed June l. 1887, and that it was
executed and delivered for the pur-
pose of depriving plaintiff OF any sat
isfaction OF any judgment in her favor,
and which she might recover against
Elias.
If Mrs. Garcia 'looses this property
she has still the son to provide lor
her, while the plaintiff and her child

THE DANGLADA CASE.
JudR ment Rem cred in Favor Oi

Judg ment fteMdefe0 Ia FaVOk Oh
the Plaintiff.
Judge O'Melveney yesterday rem
renderd decision in favor of plaintiff
in the case of Emile Danglada against
Jesus G.. Elias and Jesus Garcia, his
mother. This action was brought to
set aside deed OF conveyance made
June /, 1887, recorded same day, pur-
porting to be executed by Elias to the
co-defendant' Garcia, upon that por-
ton of the lot described in the COM
plant, on the alleged ground
that, for the purpose of de-
priving and defrauding the plain
tiff of her lawful demands against
Elias, and for the recovery of which
plaintiff, at and before June 1st, 1887,
had threatened to prosecute him, he
and the said Garcia combined (con-
sorted) together to defraud her; and
for that reason and motive Elias con-
yeysd to his mother this property
without any valuable consideration or
other consideration.
On July 20, 1887, an action was
commenced by the plaintiff against
Elias, the defendant, and judgment
for $lO, 900 and costs was entered in
her favor on the 2Sth OF October, 1887
and it was alleged that this property
was of the value of $4,000, and that
defendant had no property out OF
which any part Of that Judgment
could be satisfied.
Deciding the case, Judge O'Mel-
yeney said: In looking at the charac-
ter of the defense set up by the de.
fendant Garcia, and the absence on
the part of Elias of any reference to
this deed In his answer, the denial
that he ever owned this property at
all. and the entire silence in regard
to any trust, it fails to inspire conf
dence as to the merits. The evidence
and the disclosure OF the circum.
stances in the proofs, leave no doubt
whatever of Elias intention to de
fraud The plaintiff of anything she
might recover.
The intent and motive of Yrs
Garcia in obtaining the deed from her
son at the time it was made is quite
manifest from this evidence. Sht
waited some two years after he ar
rived at age before the execution o
this deed. The motive which induced
her to make the deed of 1886 was now
more pressing than then, for she wal
