People can now Bang the Sheriff
in the Jaw.
Yesterday Frank Folsom wa,
tried in the Justice Court for as
sault and battery.
The evidence showed that dur.
ing the Stevenson trial, he was
standing up in the Courtroom
leaning up against the railing
when the Sheriff asked him to sit
down, or go out. He declined to
do either, when the Sheriff caught
him by the arm.
Judge Rising in the bench. see.
Ing trouble brewing, ordered Fol
som to obey the Sheriff.
The Sheriff says he asked him
to sit down inside the rail and mo-
toned to chair. Folsom saws the
officer threatened to throw him
out.
he nnaIly sat down and then went
down street, and meeting Bottsfo1d !
asked him what he meant by in
sulting him and applied an abusive |
epithet.
The Sheriff then caught hold of
MN as he says, to arrest him for
vulgar language when Folsom
hit him IL the jaw and knocked
him down,
The defense said that Bottssord
did not tell him what he was ~
'ested for when he offered the cpl
.hets to the Sheriff and that his
allure to do so warranted Folsom
n defending himself with the
that the officer was
committing an ssaualt.
The prosecution held that it was
n unwaranted assault on a peace
fncer and premeditated because
olson had asked some one if he
ad trouble with the Sheriff could
have jury trial. Receiving
l affirmative answer he had
me back and committed the as
ult.

lnutes and brought in a verdict T,

THERE WILL BE NO STRIKE.

to DO Tested.

to DO Tested.
COAL VALLEY, w. Va, June TO- lSpe-
ciali-Tho West Virginia Legislature,
at its session just closed, passed two
laws known as the anti-scrip and the
coal screen laws. The laws, made osten-
sibly in the interest of the miners and
against the operatives, have been tho
subject of much discussion, many of
the miners friends claiming that they
were not in their interest. The laws
went into effect on the seventh instant,
and as the operatives refused to be gov
erned by them, it was feared that there
would be Il general strike.
Tuesday was set apart for labor
demonstrat ton, and many thousand
miners gathered in Charleston. Three
boats, each supplied with band of
music, took the miners from this point.
Speeches were made by General Watts
and other prominent men, and it was
unanimously determined to continue
work and test the constitutionaltyo f.the
laws in the courts. Thus ends for the
present one of the most serious troubles
ever encountered by the people OF this
section. For weeks buainess has been
almost at standstill; operators were
buying no goods. and the festive travel
ing man had almost entirely disap-
pcared.
More interest is manifested in Roam
ol1e by the people Of this section than in
any other Southern town. Very many
of them are owners OF real estate i'll the
Magic City, and are clamorous for rail-
road from Jackson on the Richmond and
Allegheny TO Roanoke via Fincastle,
putting them in direct communication
with Southwest Virginia and opening
up another market for their coke and
coal Will Roanoke meet them half
way in the proposed enterprise?

a Money Making Scheme.

From the Petersburg Index Appeal
The journalistic brethren of Roanoke
do not dwell together in harmony as
brethren should do. Some time ago the
Herald of that city started badge CON
test for the most popular policeman, and
towards the close of the contest was
forced to print several thousand supple.
ments containing as many as ten or more
ballots to SUPP ly the demand. Where
upon TIE TIMES, Of the Same city, de-
nounccd tho Herald for having "de.
bauchcd what purported to be an honest
and honorable competition into scheme
whereby, ty selling its honesty of pur-
pose, it might win few ill-won dollars
to patch its pockets"
The Herald retorts in kind, and so the
war goes on.
But we hardly think the game is worth
the candle. The gentlemen who start
these contests do not claim that thoy
arc in the line of journalism proper, or
that strictly they are indications of per.
sonal popularity, as represented by mum
bcrs. They merely Show how many
dollars few friends may he willing to
spend to compliment n favoritc. The
individuals popularity could be asccr-
tanned only by restricting each voter to
one ballot. But everybody understands
That these schemes arc started nv their
| authors to make money, and, with this
understanding, it would seem to matter
little whether ballots or dollars woro

story, familiar perhaps to the read
crs of the Companion, is told OF Mrs
bingham, woman of high social posi-
ton in Washington in the carly part Of
this century. She once invited a rough
western farmer to dine with her. The
guest was d;zzled by the splcndors md
gay company, and while trying ner-
vously to appear at his case, broke one
of Il set of costly Scvrcs cups He sat
staring at her, specchless with dismay
Mrs Bingham laughed "Ah, that
ridiculous china! 1t breaks with a
breath" and taking up one of the cups
us she spoke, she carclcssly crushed it
in her hand and dropped the fragments
upon the table The color came again
to her guests face, and hc finished his
dinner completely Mt his case. "Givc
