JUDGES TO BE ELECTED.
There Are seven of Them, But Few
Fights.

The judgeship fights are beginning 10
attract attention. There are several o.
them and some are very spirited.
The circuit judgeships will not produce
any contests. There are three of these
Governor Tyler appointed General Gcorge
j. Hundley TO succeed the late judge
Samuel F. Coleman 10 the bench OF the
Third Circuit, composed Of the counties
of Amelia, Buckingham, Charlotte, Cum
berland Lunenburg, Mecklenburg, Pow
hatan. and Prince Edward. Judge Humid
ley has made such q satisfactory Official
that he will have no opposition. Indeed.
several OF the counties of his circuit have
instructed their legislative representa-
tiyes TO vote for him
THE THIRTEENTH CIRCUIT.
Judge 5. H. Letcher was appointed by
Governor Tyler TO succeed Judge VIII
liam Mclaughlin. deceased, as Judge OF
the Thirteenth Circuit. Judge Letcher
was threatened with opposition at Oae
time, but he now has a clear field, and
will be elected without opposition to the
place he received by appointment-an
honor he richly deserves. as his frienas
say he has made one Of the most able
judges who ever sat upon the bench m
his circuit, one, by the way, which IS
celebrated for its fine lawyers and learned
Judges. The Thirteenth Circuit is COM
posed of the counties of Allegheny, Au-
gusta. Bath. Highland, Rockbridge. and
Rockingham.
lew months ago Judge w. T. Miller
resigned from the bench OF the Seven
teenth Circuit, on account OF iil-heaith,
and Governor Tyler appointed Mr.. H. \.
w. Skeen to succeed him. Judge Skeen
will be elected TO the position 10 which
he was appointed and that without op-
position, as he has made a most able
judge.
A PRETTY FIGHT SPOILED.
There was at one time promised most
entertaining fight for the judgeship OF the
court OF Amherst county. but one IL not
expected now. Governor Tyler appointed
Hon. Clarence Campbell 10 succeed JUDGE
e. II. Campbell. resigned. The fight Tor
the legislative nomination was over the
judgeship. DIT. X. y. Ware who Will vote
for Judge Campbell. was elected. Judse
Campbell has made a most satisfactory
judge.
When Judge +. X. Farrar C'Johnay
neb"l, OF the County Court OF Ameia
died last year, Governor Tyler appointed
his son. Mr. stephen l.. Farrar. TO sue
coed him. Judge Farrar has made such
4 satisfactory judge that he will not be
opposed for election.
A REAL FIGHT.
There is fight on for the Fiuvanna
judgeship. When Judge w. III. Holman
died last spring, Governor Tyler appointed
Mr.. James 4 ~. Miller to succeed him.

THE STANDS CASE
Mr.. Whitehead was very DESTROYS or
obtaining from the Democratic ENecu-
tive Committee Of Norfolk an expression
which would guide him as To the course
he should pursue I'm the Stands contest
A telegram TO the Dispatch says that the
committee met last night with only one
member absent, Captain W. w. Dey,
chairman. presiding "a resolution offer
ed by Colonel w. W. Sale was adopted,
expressing the view that, believing as the
committee does in the right of local self
government. it would be improper for II
10 Interfere in the Stands matter, but
having the fullest confidence in the judg-
ment of State Senator Foster and Dele
gates Whitehead and Lyons, 1t would
leave the question in their hands. The
decision was communicated to those gem
tlemen in Richmond"
LAND-GRABBERS' LAW
Senator Graham clayton of Bedford,
I'm common with almost every legislator
who has expressed himself on the sub
ject. IS opposed TO the repeal of the land
grabbers' law, but wants certain amend
ments.
1t is thought there will very probably
be offered an amendment requiring would
be purchasers to pay the amount of
the delinquent taxes before they can
make a claim for the delinquent pro-
perty. They have not been required TO
pay a cent heretofore, and, in many
cases. valuable property has been ac-
qulied by people who could not have
paid the taxes before they saw that
they could secure the property they
sought 10 obtain. Another amendment
will probably be offered requiring that
all delinquent property shall be sold at
public auction thereby giving the public
an opportunity TO purchase, and in case
the property sells for more than the
amount due the State. after paying all
expenses. the proceeds shall be given 10
the owner or his heirs.
INSPECTION OF BOILERS
The bill requiring the regular inspec-
ton Of steam boilers by an officer To be
appointed for the purpose, for which Mr..
Charles 4. Bland, Of Portsmouth, has
fought 50 vigorously heretofore. will be
championed this year by Mr.. j. Lyons,
of Norfolk.
A bin will be offered I'm a day or two
providing for the payment of the claim
