The Cuban Resolutions Defeated.

The surrender of Senator Sherman
and the other advocates of the con.
ference report upon the Cuban resolu-
tions to the conservative element of
the Senate Monday was not much of a
surprise. The objections to much con-
tanned in the House resolutions have
been so numerous and SO firmly based
upon reason and common sense it was
felt that, as the Senate recovered from
the excited condition into which it was
thrown by the lingo speeches of mem
bers upon both sides of the chamber
the propriety of further consideration
of the subject by the conferees would
be apparent to every one. 1t is to be
hoped that the country is coming te
its senses.

MIDDLEBRooK AND VICINITY.

The sudden changes IN the weather of late
have laid good many people up sick with
something like the grippe
Rev. Hanna will soon move to West Vir-

Walter Berry and family, are going to locate

one whom he owed, and paid up. We are
sorry to see such men leaving our community
There will be quite number of changes,
around among the people here this Spring, as
something going on.
Some of the village mechanics were sick last
week with the prevailing grippe.

is long felt wantfi filled. Now if we just had
some way of gettiug to Staunton without a
long drive. on the road. What a great mis-
take, in running the B. & O. R. R., where it
is, instead of up through this great horticul-
tural country, where there would have been
trouble the freight to convey. An electric line
could be operated to great advantage from
this place to Staunton. The amount of freight
to haul, and the passenger traffic would be
immense. We hope we will live to see this be
reality soon. and we see no reason why il
should not be.
People are awaking all over the country to
the fact, that where the farming lands &c,
are to bring good prices, and the particular
section become an inviting field for the inves-
tor that it must contain, telephone lines, cleo
trio or motor lines, or railways then the in

as easy to- make this county one of these
places as any other, for we have all the ma
tural facilities, and in fact everything need
full. Then would the people who labor fine
employment, and the population increase

things to their great advantage and why no
this State? Let every man take hold and no
do as the booms. Lett collapse. but ralley
around it, and stand by ii, and it will be sure
to be a grand success, indeed.

delegates and alternates we're elected
to the district and State conventions,
which meet on the 22d and 23d OF
April, respectively, and the fight upon
the assembling of these bodies will be
hot to determine which set of delegates
shall be seated.
