Foote & Johnson.

The Spring coming of Foote & Johnson
with their carriages, buggies and other
vehicles is always hailed with pleasure by
the people of Tazewell. For many years
this firm has been supplying most of our
people with vehicles, and it has been
found that their carriages and buggies are
superior in comfort, style and durability
to any that have ever been used in the
county. There are no vehicles that will
stand the Tazewell roads as we'll as those
manufactured by Foote L johnson.
Hence the wisdom of our people in buying
from them.
At the May county court, on the 18th
inst, Messrs Foote & Johnson will have
on exhibition at this place nice line of
their carriages, buggies and othervehicleas;;;
Moss & Greever are their agents and will
be glad to have those who want a buggy or
carriage examine the exhibit.
Don't buy until you see Foote & john
sons vehicles and get their prices.

Politicians May Yet Cause Civil War
There.

London, May 3.-All news from Madrid
tends to show that the situation there and
elsewhere in Spain is rapidly growing crit
icai. Special editions of London papers is
sued show an alarming condition of affairs.
Salmeron's onslaught in the chamber of
deputies was really yelled attack on the
existing regime for political ends. Once
Salmeron said man who destroys the
present regime will be great patriot.
Weyler entered the chamber in the
midst of Salmeron' speech. He created a
sensation by taking a seat between the
Carlist and republican groups.
The governors of the various provinces
have been authorized to resign their pow
ers TO military officials the moment they
think it convenient. The military author
tiles will then Immediately proclaim mar
tial law. Trouble is especially feared in
Valencia, which is q hotbed of Carism.
Already there has been tumultuous dem
onstration there. Some blood was shed:
The rise in the price of bread caused dis
turbances. Collection of taxes led to two

Fire at Central Hotel.

On Sunday night there came very near
being a serious fire at the Central
Hotel. Mr.. Miller Dabney, who
represents the collecting agency OF
r. 6. Dun & Co., was guest of the hotel.
In the room which he oc fupied there were
two beds. He retired about II o'clock,
but previous TO retiring had been looking
over his papers which he spread out on
the unoccupied bed. At about 1890
O'Clock Mr.. Dabney walked up and found
his room full of smoke and the unoccupied
bed in flames. He was nearly suffocated
by The smoke, but managed to make
feeble cry, which brought Messrs. Will
White and Geo. Surface and DR.. G. w.
st. Clair to his assistance. They promptly
extinguished the flames The end of the
mattress and part of the bed clothing were
burned, also MIR. Dabney's vest and $1,000
in his vest pocket.

A TazeweII Boy With Dewey.

There were several Virginians with Com
modore Dewey at the great naval battle at
Manila. Among them are Lieutenant Will
liam q, Miller, of the flagship Olympia;
Lieutenant Charles S. Stanworth, on the
cruiser Baltimore; Surgeon L. Ii. Marstel-
Ter, on the Raleigh, and Rev. John 3.
Frazier, chaplain on the Olympia. Mr.,
Frazier is, we believe, native of Tazewell
county. He certainly lived in the county
several years. His father died few years
ago at knoxville, after many years service
as an irinerant in the Holstan Conference.
The Rev. j. Tyler Frazier, our presiding
elder, is the uncle Of the chaplain of the
Olympia.

Sparks Circus.

Sparks Circus gave two entertainments
here on Saturday, as advertised, one at
three O'Clock III the afternoon and the
other at I 80 at night. Pretty good
crowds attended both entertainments and
all were well pleased with the show Mr.
Sparks gives everything that he has on his
bills and his show is nice, clean one.
There are no fakrs and swindlers in the
company. The accrobatic performances
are as good rs seen in any show, while the
trained horses, dogs and goats are really
wonderful in their intelligent tricks.

Nearly a Serious Fire.

On last Thursday night there came very
near being a serious fire at thee. A. Fudge
Roller Mills, at North Tazewell. Some
time during the night fire originated un-
der the boiler of the engine. Of course it
was accidental but unaccountahle. When
the young man who fires the engine went
there on Friday morning at o'clock he
found the flames spreading, and butfor his
timely arrival the building and machinery
would have been destroyed, also large
quantity of grain and flour and meal.
The young man used a bucket to throw
water from tank that is used in connec-
ton with the engine, and soon put out the
fire.

EDITORIAL PARAGRAPHS.

One of the most significant facts in con-
nection with the waning popularity
of Mr. W. j. Bryan is the dropping of his
name as presidential candidate for 1900
by fifty Populist papers in Kansas. These
papers have been carrying his name at the
head of their columns with the declared
purpose of keeping it there until 1900, but
they have pulled down his name now.
Spanish honor must be ola very peculiar
kind, if tit can be satisfied with such encoun-
ters as those at Manila. 1t is like fellow
taking kicking from gentlemen and
declaring that his honor has been vindi-
Gated by the assault.
The American sailors know how to shoot.
Not only is Spain satisfied of that fact, but
all Europe is ready to acknowledge it.

result OF the Manila naval battle is felt at
the United States embassy here. Persons
in private life are pouring in congratula-
tions.
Ambassador Hay, upon learning the eX-
tent Of the damage inflicted upon the
Spanish squadron, remarked;
Another such victory will relieve the
world of the terrible nightmare of war"
The report that Commodore Dewy's fleet
retired is ridiculed in the face of the knUwn
fact that they simply Withdrew the fleet
to take the transports into Manila bay.

"France wants to fight" 1t may want
to fight, but we hazard the opinion that it
will not select tie United States as its ad-
veis sary.
1t looks very much like Dewey will be
the first hero of modern naval warfare.
He seems to have both the ability to plan
a battle and the courage to execute it.
Weyler, the butcher, Blanco, the boaster,
and Montijo, the skipper! Spain has lot
Of distinguished leaders.
Fiat money is not good fighting money.
That's the kind Spain proposes 10 use.
Uncle Sam will do the work with good,
sound, yellow metal.
The national air now is ''Dixie Doodle
Dandy" The patriotic boys from all Sec
tons of the Union are marching to its in
spring strains.
We have no doubt the spaniards have
found out that the Americanos can shoot
dogs better than they can stick pigs.
The morning of the 1st of May was not
a very pleasant Dewey morn for the Span
ards at Manila.
Montijo had to flee to the 'Isla de Cuba"
for safety. Blanco will not have the OPP
portunity to 90 to the "IsIa de Philippine"
when Sampson begins to lombard Havana.
What will poor Blanco do?
Some persons call it Vanilla" Dewey
would have to his credit lot of the ex-
tract if that was the correct name.
The naval bureau chiefs at Washington
say 'Dewey has powder to burn" Mon
tito thought he burned good DEAL
An exchange says that resolution and
courage have always been marked traits of
our naval hero" The hero of Manila. We
reckon the Spaniards think those traits
have been growing rather than diminish
ing.
Everybody in Virginia is glad that Fitz.
! ee has been rewarded as he deserved.
His defeat for the United States Senate by
parvenu was not such misfortune after
all.
Tie Spaniards say the Americans fired
petroleum bombs at Manila. We are not
surprised that Montijo fled to the 'Isla de
Cuba"
The Spanish bands are now playing ga
Hot Time in Manila" 1t would be an ap-
propriate national air.
The Spaniards at Manila cut the cabIeto
prevent any more bad news going from the
island. They couldn't hide themselves in
that way from Dewey no more than the os-
trich can escape its pursuer by hiding its
head in the sand.
