THE BLAIR DEEDS.

Not an Assignment But to Secure Time
and Continue Business.
The three deeds of trust executed by
w. j. Blair and l.. Blair, Jr., to Ii. Nj.
Daniel, trustee, dated Nov. 5, 1892, were
made by them to secure their creditors
The first deed conveying all of the
property, was made to parties woo held
a second mortgage and who had Endorsed
for t! g firm.
Th4 second deed was for the trustee to
rent the property and apply the re ats de-
rived from each house TO the payment
of the building and loan associations
holding the first mortgages, the object
being that monthly payments being
made on the first mortgage debts de-
creasing the liability each month, and
thereby increasing the security for
those holding subsequent liens. The
third dced, amounting to S3S 500, was
given to secure the general creditors of
the firm on all the property named in
the first deed, The object of the third
deed Of trust is to secure their creditors
and to obtain time in which to conduct
the business, as it is the intention of
the firm to continue, as they hold
large number of the most valuable resi-
dence lots in the city which they wish
to improve.
The above is succinct and lucid ex-
PLANTATION Of the trust deeds given by
the Blairs; deeds whose amounts are
less by 100000 than the assets of the
firm. 1t is we'll known fact that real
estate is dull at the present Time, but
even at present prices the valuable city
property named in the deeds arc far in
excess of the sums thus secured. The
Blairs are men OF indom;tab bic energy
and have been potent factors in the do
velopment of Roanoke. Their business
still moves on and their enormous rents
will monthly lessen the amounts men
toned in the three deeds.

Dr. Pnrkhurst Furnishes IA Bill of Par
ticulars.

When Rev. DIR. Chas. H. Parkhurst of
New York, distinguished minister of the
Presbyterian church, preached his sermon
of scathing denuncation OF the Tammany
government of New York city four weeks
ago, he was met with the charge that he
was simply dealing with generalitics, and
why, il he was in earnest, did he not give
the public something definite and tangible
on the subject Last Sunday morning he
met this charge by preaching a sermon
which was as definite in its terms as the
most eXacting could wish. During the
intervening four weeks he had had de-
tectives at work, and had been himself into
the damnabe dives of the city, accom-
panied by members of his church. He had
gathered evidence, carefully tested and
sworn TO, against Pa liquor saloons in -
precincts for violation of the excise law
He also presented list of 30 houses, the
names and addresses of which were given,
of the worst class of places of i'll fame, all
of them in the precinct in which stands his
own church. at is of little use for me"
he said, after giving these figures, "to
preach the gospel to young men on Sun
days if they are to sit on the edge of a
Tammany maintained hell the rest of the
week. Don't tell me don't know what |
am talking about. Many a long, dismal,
heartsickening night in company with two
trusted friends have | spent since | spoke
on the matter before, going down into the
disgusting depths of this Tammany- de-
bauched town, and it is rotten with
rottenness that is mspeakable and in
describable, and a rottenness that would be
absolutely impossible except by the CON
nivance, not to say the purchased SYM
pathy, of the men whose one obligation
before God, men and their own conscience
is to shield virtue and make vice difficult.

Mr. Cleveland is "Willin'."


once Wore lie Finds Condition and
Not Theory Confronting Him.
The Milwaukee journal printed on Mon
day a letter from Grover Cleveland which
removes all doubt that he will be a candi-
date before the Chicago convention. Mr.
Cleveland writes, in response to letter
from General Edward S. Bragg of Wiscon-
sin, author of the famous phrase 1--WE love
him for the enemies he has made" GEN
Bragg in his letter referred to the cloud
which has lately fallen over the prospects
of Democratic success this year, and told
Mr.. Cleveland that he thought the dubious
outlook was largely due to doubt whether
he would stand as candidate. In conclu.
sion he asked him to say definitely that he
would accept another nomination. This is
the substance of Mr.. Clevcland's 5 answer:
'lf, in answering your questions, might
only consider my personal desires and my
individual ease and comfort, my response
would be promptly made, and without the
least reservation or difficulty. But if YOU
are right in supposing that the subject is
related to a duty owe to the country and
to my party, Il condition exists which makes
such private and personal considerations
entirely irrelevant. | cannot however. re-
frain from declaring to you that my expert
ence in the great Office OF president Of the
United States has so impressed me with
the Solemnity of the trust and its awful re-
sponsibiltics that | cannot bring myself to
regard a candidacy for the place as some
thing to be won 10y personal strife and ac-
tive self assertion. My cOnyic-
tion that the voters Of our party should be
free in the selection of their candidates pre-
cludes the possibility of my leading and
pushing a self-seeking canvass for the pres
idcntial nomination, even if had a desire
10 be again a candidate.
The letter concludes with a declaration
Of earnest desire for the success of the par
ty, and of belief that success is still within
its reach 1t is written in Mr.. Clevcland's
usual pondcrous style. but the meaning of
it is that hc will gladly be the candidate
again thi, year if hc can get the nomina-
tiOu.
The letter is as nearly colorless as it
could be made. 1t touches no vital issue
and notably omits to rebuke'the silver folly
of his party, or take a stand in this respect
in behalf OF the menaccd business inter
eNtN of the country.

The Detroit Tribune printed on Monday
the reply of Gen. Russell 4. Alger to those
who have attacked his war record The
substance of the New York Suns charge
was that Alger was dismissed from the ser
vice on the recommendation of Gen. Gus
ter, for being absent from duty without
leave. Gen. Clusters letter reporting AL
ger as so absent was dated Sept. lG. 1864.
Gen. Ayers reply is to the effect that
on August q, 1864. a month and 10 DAYS
before Gen. Clusters report, he wrote a let
ter to Secretary Stanton rendering his res
ignatlon. President Lincoln endorsed this
letter as follows: Let his resignation be
accepted. Algcr, learning that there was
prospect of an active campaign in the
Shenandoah valley, did not present his res
ignation, but went to the front. Six weeks
later, on September Is, 1864, the date Of
Gen. Clusters report, and seven days be
fore ii had received its final endorsements
he rendered his resignation anew. The
same day it was accepted by the President
The reply is declared by Gen. Alger' 5
friends to be eminently satisfactory.

Congress to decree, advances needed to
place our postal system on a par with that
of other countries, encouraging innovations
have nevertheless recently been made. The
postal subsidy law, while not fulfilling the
expectations of its friends has necessitated
the immediate building of ships and start
ed American mails under the American
flag on regular and more rapid courses
than hitherto. The withdrawal of 81 ,000,-
600 from postal revenues caused by the
ant-lottery law measures its benefits.
Post-otlices on ships for asserting mail
have enabled Western merchants to reply
to European correspondents by the same
vessel bringing the first message. Still, in
face of public apathy regarding our postal
deficiencies, an executive to introduce mod
ern methods must have the patience of a
Griselda and the enterprise of worlds
fair commission.

1t is both interesting and amusing to
watch the development of the Democratic
manuuvring for the presidential nomina-
tiOn. Senator and Ex-Governor Hill, hav-
ing got the state of New York snugly tuck
ed away in his inside pocket, left last Sat
urday night, with party of a few friends,
for stumping tour through the South.
He went by the Shenandoah valley and
east Tennessee route, receiving demonstra-
tiOns from his admirers at all the principal
points, and making speeches to them. On
Tuesday he was formally received by the
Mississippi Legislature and Wednesday he
was at Birmingham, Ala, going thence to
Atlanta. Hills purpose, it is needless to
say, is to capture the Southern delegates to
the Chicago conventional he will do it,
too. Meantime Cleveland's friends, taking
the alarm, have given him chance to
speak through the medium of Gen. Bragg 5

candidate. But nobody ever supposed he
would not be a candidate again if he could
