Debate at Floyd Courthouse.

Floyd. Va. Oct. 11.-Special-Col-
onel J. Hampton Hoge and Mr. Claude
A. Swanson championed the Democratic
cause. and J. J. Wilkerson and Haskns
Hobson represented the Third party
here to-day, and it goes without saying
that HOge and Swanson were easily
victOrS IN the contest Wilkerson and
Robson frankly admitted that they were
10 matches for the gentlemen, and said
they relied upon the justice of their
cause which, however. they most signal
ly failed to show. They blamed the
Democratic party for all the ills to which
flesh is heir politically. and when called
to say what laws the Democratic party
was responsible for could only cite the
Anderson Mccormick election law Of
Virginia. The Republicans gave Wiki
erson and Hobs0n few feeble cheers
when they said hard things about the
Democrats.
1t is the opinion here that Weaver and
Field will not poll bakers dozen in the
county. though the bulk Of the Republ-
cans win support Jones, the People
party for Congress.
