A gross estimate of s5O.OOOOOO would he
more likely to fall under than over the
mark. A large proportion of these invest
ments Is now exposed to the exceptional
Vlcissitudes of the war. Estates have been
desolated and crops destroyed by the in
surgents and Spaniards alike. Upon those
not actually ravaged operations have been
compulsorily suspended owing to the warn
ings served by the revoluti onists or the
withdrawal Of protection by the Spanish
authorities. often accompanied by a SINH
lar prohibition against continuing work
thereon or by forbidding communica ton
and residence, thus entailing enforced
abandonment Of the premises. Provisions
and stock have been seized by either force
for military use without compen sa ton
Dwellings have been pillaged.
In short, the cessation of all remunera-
tive. production accompanies actual or prob
able loss of the invested capital. Numer-
Gus claims on these several accoln.s have
been filed, but in many instances the suf-
ferers are known to abstain from formal
claim complaint for prudential reasons,
lest worse should befall them at the hands
Of the insurgents and the Spaniards in
turn. accordingly as either may gain tenn
porary control of their property. A partial
estimate of material claims and injuries

The Board of State Canvassers will
award the certificate of election Of
Congress from the Tenth district to
Mr.. Yost, republican. An order from
the Supreme Court of Virginia, in
reference to the vote at a precinct
in Buckingham county, indicates very
clearly that the Board will have to
reverse their decision, giving the
certificate to Mr.. Flood, which he
declined very properly to accept.
Mr.. Flood was probably beaten by
fraudulent means, but he could not
afford to correct the wrong which
had been done him by accepting q
certificate based on a tecbnicality.

The republicans have decided, it is
now stated, to make contests in but
three Congressional districts in Vir-
ginia-second, fourth and fifth. The

Mrs. Mamie Shreves, wife of Vim.
B. Shreves, died at her home, near
Crowsontown, Saturday, November
14th, 1896, aged 90 years. She was
an affectionate wife, good neighbor
and highly esteemed in the COM
munity in which she lived. She
leaves a husband and father and
many other relatives and friends to
mourn their loss-but they do not
sorrow as those who have no hope,
for their loss is her eternal gain.
Dearest Mamie thou has left us,
We thy loss most deeply feel,
But tits God that has bereft us,
He can all our sorrows heal.

Those who have started the report
that Mr.. Charles J.. Barker, clelk of
court, and Democratic nominee for
reelection, would be unable to dis
charge the duties of his office, if re-
elected, because of his threatened
blindness, have ov%er-reached them
selves by their cruel argument, and
instead Of taking away votes from that
unfortunate gentleman, fair-minded
and sympathetic people will be
attracted to him.
Although a sick and sorely afflicted
man, and deprived Of the use of one
eye, whether temporarily or perma-
nently is not yet known, Mr.. Barker
is not yet blind, and what is better,
bids fair not to become blind. The
Oculist in charge Of his ease thinks the
danger to the other eye is now passed.
But even if the worse should come,
Mr.. Barker could discharge the func
tions of his office by competent depu-
ties, and instead of being an argument
agains. him, his dire affection. if it
should finally come, would be a strong
one in his favor.
No man "a object to fair and Just
arguments against a candidate for
Office but the use of such a cruel ar
gnment cannot be too strongly
reprobated.
