THE activity of the planters OF
Newport News as set forth in
the clipping published elsewhere
and the letter Of w. Mcdonald
Lee, is but additional proof Of
ne need of some counteraCting
move on the part Of the towns
iaen which we endeavored 10 en-
Dhesize last week.
One. a bill to break the BAYLOR
survey is before the legislature
there will be found many who will
vote and fight for it, nor VIII the
planters fail to push it in every
possible way. They will be as
sisted by western representatives
who do not know what destruc-
tion such a measure would bring
TO Tidewater. Better get busy
in time and prepare to fight such
,ameasure than to wake up and yell
murder when the damage is done.
