DURHAM RECORDER.

WEDNESDAY, Nov 10, lS9O
-0T T0Hy CAMERON.

We saw it stated in the Raj
eigh Chronicle last week that
the above name gentleman will
be a candidate for Principal
Clerk of the House of Repre-
sentatives. Col. Cameron, was
Clerk for six consecutive SEES
sions, and discharged his duties
10 the satisfaction of all. We
see no reason why he should not
be elected again.
While editor of The REcoR'
. DER and other papers OF the
State, he did a power of good,
and those that were guilty OF
wrong doing smarted under his
sentences.
Since boyhood he has enjoyed
the confidence and respect Of
the people of the State, and
especially of Orange and Durham
counties. Nothing would give us
more pleasure than to see this
venerable gentleman occupying
the position of Principal Clerk
of the House of Representatives
of North Carolina. A better
man can't be found.

THE COUNTRY BETRAYED.
What was the occasion of
these condemnations of cheap
ness and what had honest Am
erican men and women done, or
what were they likely to do that
they should be threatened with
the epithets "cheap," ''nasty"
and "un-American." tits hard
to speak patiently as we answer
these questions. Step by step a
vast number of our people had
been led on, following blindly
in the path of party. They had
been filled with hate and Sec
tional prejudice; they had been
cajoled with Misrepresentation
and false promises; they had
been corrupted with money and
appeals to their selfishness. All
these things led up to final be-
trayal to satisfy the demands of
those who had supplied the fund
for their corruption.

THE REAL ESTATE MARKET.
Big Transactions in F-Street Property the
Feature of the Week.

Big Transactions in F-Street Property the
Feature of the Week.
The feature OF the real estate market during
the past few weeks has been the activity in F.
street property, where several large transfers
have taken place, and the prices obtained tend
to verify the predictions of experienced opera
tors regarding that street, namely, that corner
properties thereon will reach in the near future
the figure of 500 per square foot, and inside
lots will bring from $50 to sos. The great sale
of the week, and probably the largest ever
made of business property in Washington, was
the transfer of the northeast corner of Thir-
teenth and streets by Mr.. John w. Thompson
to a syndicate. Mr.. Thompson bought the
property in April of this year for $225 900 and
sold 1t last week for $3.50, 900, making a hand
some fortune out of the transaction in a
few months. The property has frontage of 97
feet inches on F street and III feet 2 inches
on Thirteenth, and contains 1926 square feet
Mr.. Thompson bought the property in different
lots, paying $39 for the corner. The remainder
was bought at prices making the entire pur-
chase average $1S per foot. The selling price
averaged S2S square foot. This price is not
apparently as high as that obtained for the small
lot at the northwest corner of Eleventh and
streets, which was sold twice within month";
the first time bringing $45 square foot and the
second time sos. But this property is specially
desirable because it is shallow, with q good
frontage on f street, while the lots at the cor
ner of Seventh and f streets extend back to a
considerable depth toward & street. In view
of this fact, the price obtained by Mr.. Thomp-
son for the latter is considered even better than
the price at which the Eleventh and street
property sold The activity in F-street
property has been the feature Of the real estate
market for weeks, and the constantly stiffenng
prices makes business men especially anxious
to secure locations on the street.

Enterprise in the West End.

Fourteenth street is rapidly becoming a bus-
ness section more and more every day. AL
readyseVery branch of trade mostly is repre-
sented on this beautiful thoroughfare. Mr.. H.
j. Launt, having lately severed his connection
with Messrs. w. II. Houghton & Co., has leased
for term of years premises No. 1897 Fourteenth
street northwest, and fitted up a first-class
store, with all the modern improvements, and
stocked with a well-selected assortment of fur
niture. Mr.. Launt has had long and varied
experience in the furniture business, having
had twelve years. experience in New York, for
himself, one year with w. ii. Moses and Son,
two years with Houghton & Co., of this city, as
salesman, assistant buyer etc This has given
him an opportunity to carefully study and note
the wants and tastes of all classes of customers.
His stock comprises everything that is neces-
sary to furnish house from the kitchen to the
attic. He is now offering inducements to all
by way of correct styles, standard A / quality,
and lowest prices in the city a cordial invita-
tion is extended to his friends, acquaintances,
and others to visit him in his new quarters and
compare prices with any house in this city or
south of New York

lenieney to those who make common cause in
the work of freeing and regenerating whole
people; who, while performing noble public
deeds that will benefit unborn millions, yield in
private to sins that affect directly but an in
significant number. True, there is grave moral
danger in any compromise with vice. but that
such compromises have been made, and with
much less justification than the Irish people now
have, is commonplace of history, and not of
political history alone, but of church history as
well. Forgiveness and gratitude are as charac-
teristc OF the Irish reverence for chastity
and the purity of the marriage relation, and
there are few men to whom the Irish race owe
more than to PARNELL. Considerations of this
kind, whether right or wrong, are undoubtedly
having their effect now in the discussions of
PARNELL's position, and if the Irish party
as seems likely, determines to stand by its
leader in his social disgrace the great mass of
the friends of Ireland the world over will proba-
bly, approve the decision.

In his speech at the Chamber of Commerce
banquet in New York the other night Mr.
CLEVELAND showed quite unexpected symptoms
of llnack for conventional after-dinner ora
tory. Mr. CLEvELAND's friends will hope that
he will waste no time in trying to develop his
powers in this direction. He can well afford
to leave that sort of thing to the light-weights
Mr.. CLEVELAND has won his way to the conf
dence of the people by traits of character
which do not commonly go with the ability to
shine at tea parties, and if he should suddenly
blossom out as rival to CHAUNCEY DEPEw,
for instance, in the field of champagne-inspired
postprandial oratory it would be real disap-
pointment to the country.
