aid In his speech before the Board OF
Aldermen on the previous night that hc

he was misquoted, and insists that he
gd,d not intend to make SO broad state
Sment: he declares that he is not opposed
TO all annexation. but that If he cou.d
have his way he would not take in as
much territory as Is included In the Mills
plan.
we heard Mr.. Blair's speech and clear

,sposed 70 annexing5 any new territory at
this time, but we checrfully accept his
version Of his own speech and as cheer

We also take occasion to make more
clear MIR. Blair's statement concerning
the Richmond branch OF the American
