The Honest Elections conference
which met in Petersburg, on the 18th
inst, adjourned on the following
day, and it is enough to say of it,
that Ex-Boss Malone, S. Brown
Allen, Ger. Jas. g. Field, ]. Haskins
Hobson and others of like ilk were
there-and that the Democrats of the
State were conspicuous only by
their absence" The developments,
early in the meeting, revealed the
hand that had planned it and the
entire proceedings showed that the
Republicans under the leadership of
Malone and others like him were at
the same old game which they had
practiced in the past, to wit: the
union of all the discordant political
elements of the State into one body,
in the interest Of RepublicanisIn and
for the especial benefit of a few of its
leaders. The idea that the meeting
was held in the interest of ballot re
form is repealed by Il glance at those
constituting it. Made up as it was
almost entirely Of old chronic grum-
blers and soreheads, who left the
Democratic party because they could
not get the promotion they wanted
in it, the meeting was farcical be
yond measure. In the language OF
an exchange, the conference was the
political joke of the season. and no
body was fooled by the declaration
of one J Haskins Hobson, that the
men there assembled were q band OF
patriots who cared nothing for the
spoils of Office, or by that of Malone,
that it was mon partisan confer
ence." Unselfsh patriots like Ma
hone, Gen. Jas. G. Field, J. Hampton
Hoge, Gen. Jas. A. Walker and Mr..
Hobson of course despise the "spoils
of oflce"-but it would be hard to
convince the average Virginian that
such was the case. Election reform
may be needed in Virginia, but il
goes without saying, that it cannot
be promoted under the leadership OF
old Republicans, sorehead Democrats
and crack brained Populists

Copartn hip.

The undersigned have this day
formed q copaItnersflp under the
firm name and style OF Needles &
Wilson. at Franklin City, Accomack
county, Virginia. for the purpose OF
engaging in the Real Estate Agency
business in all its various branches,
at that place. We tlatter ourselves
that, our facilities for conducting
said business successfully are not sur
passed by any other in the same line
on the Peninsula, and we hope, there
fore, that by strict attention to bust
ness and a careful regard for the in
terest'o of our patrons to merit and re-
ceive liberal share of the patronage
of those having real estate to dispose
of and also of those who desire to
purchase. Our terms will be moder-
ate and accommodating In connec-
ton with our Office is a Notary Pub
| lie and General Conveyancer, who
has had many years Of experience il
the different lines of his business.
We propose to purchase, sell
and exchange all real estate
that may be placed in our hands, to
the very best advantage for our pa
irons. We now have awaiting US,
to place upon the market a number
of tracts of land, farms, houses and
lots situate at Franklin City and iii
other sections Of this county, all OF
which will be sold cheap, and upon
such reasonable terms as cannot fall
to suit any purchaser
Accomack and Northampton cOun-
ties are proverbially known for hav-
ing lands we'll adapted to the raising
OF fruits, early vegetables, and trucks
of almost every kind. The location
of the said counties render the situa
ton very desirable for residences.
there is excellent society, good schools,
churches of various denominations,
postotlices in every locality, railroad
and telegraphic FACILITIES within easy
reach of every person; the nearby
waters abound in fish, oysters, CLANS,
crabs and terrapin, and the shores
and flats in, and adjacent the waters
are covered with whitewater fowl and
came in their season-in fact, no sec
ton of the United States offers great
er inducement to investors in rea!
estate, whether for profit or for
healthful home locations than do
these eastward counties OF virginia,
and the Eastern Shore counties Of
our adjoining sister State OF Mary
land. Having the broad Atlantic
ocean and it's tributaries on the east
side, and the great Chesapeake bay
and It's tributaries on the west, the
Eastern Shores of Virginia and Mary
land stands to-day unrivalled by any
other country, in its many advan-
tages to the citizens and those seek
ing investments.
For terms and for any information
in regard to the lands, &c, in this
section, address Needles & Wilson,

The Harmanson West Camp Con
federate Veterans, at its meeting al
Hallwood, on Wednesday, concluded,
wisely we think, to postpone the en-
tertainment TO be given at Cape
Charles, from the 18th of August to
the Goth Of September. r the enter
tainlnent had been held at the time
designated in August, very many per-
sons necessarily would have been
kept away, who desired to attend,
and speakers of national reputation,
whose services cannot be seess.rea
now, could be in september. The
time too, would have been too short
for the committee soliciting contribu-
tions to complete their work. The
entertainment proposed calls for the
hearty support of every citizen on
the Eastern Shore who loves the
memory Of the boys who died for the
Lost Cause, and it was decidedly bet
ter to remove any obstacle which
prevented them from participating,
by postponing to time when relig-
ious gatherings, neighborhood fetes,
&C., would not interfere. The last
day named conflicting with nothing
now, everybody should so shape their
affairs rs to allow nothing to conflict
with it in the future-and q long pull,
a strong pull and pull altogether by
those who loved the boys in gray, at
the entertainment, should assure the
erection of the monument proposed
ut no distant day.

The Jefferson Davis Monument
Committee at meeting in Richmond
this week, adopted a resolution pro.
viding that the chairman be requested
to communicate with every Con
federate camp and camps Of Sons OF
Confederate Veterans in this State
asking them to use their best efforts
toward raising subscriptions for the
monument fund. and to appoint a
day when a representative of the
committee could meet the camps and
confer with them as to the best
means to be adopted with this end in
view. The president Of the Davis
Monument Association appeared be
fore the committee and stated that
the amount already in bank in cash

The old high seat yellow striped
park phseton, to which President
Grant used to drive his famous team
Cincinnati and Egypt. in Washing
ton, was sold recently at auction ftl
fourteen dollars.
Last week 2S acres of land near
Roanoke, which the Roanoke
Development Company bought in
1890 for sos, 900, was sold at auction
for 1880, TO satisfy an unpaid
balance OF $4,000 OF the purchase
money.
When the q. S. Senate meets there
viii be Il Republicans, 80 Democrats
Populists, and contested seat from
Delaware, which will be settled by
seating Dupont, the Republican. The
Populists hold the key TO the
situation as far as organization is
concerned. just as Gen. Malone did
when he entered the Senate.
The crop of corn this year it is
stated, will be the largest that has
ever been known. 1t is estimated at
the present time that the yield will
exceed by 200, 100000 bushels the re
cord of any previous year. The
previous greatest yield of any year
was in 1889, when the acreage was
7S.419,Gj1 and the yield 2,112, S92, 600
bushels.
Charles Vane Name Decker, the
bigamist, who married twice in New
York and twice in Virginia, and who
was sentenced in Petersburg
September o., 1893, to serve eight
years in the penitentiary, has been
pardoned by the Governor, and has
gone to Gloucester county, the home
of his father, who is one of the
wealthiest oyster planters in Vir-
GINA. He is hopelessly i'll with con-
sumption.
Samples of corn of giant species
have been obtained from Peru by the
Department of Agriculture. The
grains are four times the size of those
of ordinary maize, and Secretary
Morton believes that the plant may
be turned to most valuable account
in this country. 1t is very prolific
and bears ears of huge dimensions.
The species is quite distinct from any
known in North America, and the
name ''zeaamylacean has been given
to it.
The New York Tribune quotes
Truman H. Aldrich, contestant for
the 9th Alabama district seat in the
House of Representatives, as saying:
1--WE, as Republicans, have been
working with the Populists, who
form strong party in the State. l
should perhaps explain the cause.
You know it is difficult for a Demo
crat to change all at once, and the
Populists make a good political
bridge. II the Democrat allies him
self with the Populists, we know
we'll get him sooner or later.
