Senatorial Lockjaw.

When the brethren Of the Viz
ginia press recover from the cpl
demic of lockiaw that seems TO
have invaded the Sanctums Of the
commonwealth, we would like to
hear from them on the Senatorial
situation. With characteristic
modcsty the NEWS has rcfrained
from the initiative, and thus pro
ceeds to PROFOUND the referendum.
If it will help our big city neigh
borS to arrive at Il conclusion, we
are willing to hazard the guess
that Martin will be rcnominated ,
and that his denomination will he
particularly disagrceable to both
factions, of the Republican party,

Gratis who have and express opin-
ions, but who do little Of the party
work.
lit is unnecessary to attempt Ia
disguise the fact that political eff
cheney is to he factor in the Sen
atorial fight, and it is also unnec-
essary and incxpedlent for the
press of the party to refrain from
discussion of a matter that is
both imminent and important. We
believe that frank expression of
opinion will Subscrvc the hest
interests of the party as well as
the distinguished gentlemen who
aspire to Martins seat. At any
rate the question Of who is to be
the next Senator is timely and pro-
vokes interest. We have friends
among those who would like to he
Senator closer to us than Senator
Martin, but the NEWS is an organ
of the party, whose paramount
duty is to retain control of the
State.

Thanksgiving,

His EXcellency the President
directed us to stul our stom-
achs with turkey and trimmings
in testimony that we are having II
better time than we have any reas-
on to expect, and we have taken
his prescription. There may bc
those among us who made "mcntaI
reservations" and refuse to see
things in the rosy light Of the
Presidents proclamation, but the
large majority of the people are
pleaSed--pleased that the war
terminated gloriously for Our
arms--pleased that the country is
fairly prosperous, and that they
individually have neither tooth
ache nor collie. Locally, we are in
"a fairly good position to return
thanks. The Lord has been good
to us. We have had fine crops, a
beautiful season of autumn wealth

winter quarters, and we are de,
livered from the immemorial can.

None but those Of us who re-
member how the late l'ayette
McMullin lay threatening and I'M
digested OH the stomach OF the
district can properly appreciate
this blessing. Let us continue to
give thanks.

Pay as You Go.

fyou owe money, pay it if posi-
BILE, by all means. The man you
owe owes somebody else and can't
pay unless you pay him, and SO on,
indefinitely The habit some bust
MSS men have fallen into of putting
Of paying their bills is II seriou i.
hindrance to business progress.
Probably 40 community in the
country is suffering as much from
the credit system us Tazewell.
There are times and conditions,
perhaps, when it is impossible to
meet your bills, but in most cases it
is because some one has failed to pay
you rs he promised, and it often
happens that parties can pay and
won't until the last moment, and
then snow an ugly temper whe II
compelled to pay. Probably there is
less crediting, and buying on credit
in tazewell now than ever before,
but there is too much of it yet by Il
long way. We can conceive of no
change in our business customs that
would do greater good all around
than for everybody to resolve that
with the beginning of 1899 they will
buy nor sell nothing whatsoever
on credit except in pressing cmer-
gencies. We will all get along bet
ter, feel better, sleep better and save
moro money for harder times, should
they ever come.

In Nineteen Hundred.

No one seems to know what
issue the campaign of 1900 will he
fought on, though many smart par
agraphcrs are willing to hazard
gucSScs No one seems to know
who the Democrats will nominate,
though gucsscs are plentiful and
cheap. One man just recently
said that German would be the
Democratic nominee; and another,
who is shrcwder than his fellows,
suggests Dewey, with Joe Wheeler
as Il running mate, while thous-
andS cling to the stirring trad-
tions Of '9G and the slogan of
Bryan and Free Silver. No man
knows exactly where next years
birds nests will be built, and very
few can even fOretell the weather
week hence. Many things may
happen in two years, as many
things have happened in a few
months. If it were not that talk
is cheap pleasure, we could find
i'll our heart to say, "await the
stirring developments of the next
few years. but let speculation and
conjecture proceed and in the
meantime the whirligig of time is
bringing about such changes as
will set at naught the wisdom OF
the routine politicians, and change
not only the politics, but the ge.
ography of the world. It's no use
working over time on the politics
of nineteen hundred.

MADRID, Nov. 23.-The proposals Of
the United States peace commissioners
have been received mere without any
public sensation. The general feeling
is in favor of speedy ending of the
negotiations.
The newspapers lament the "un-
generosity" of the United States in
Offering "such small indemnity"
They think that Japan or some of the
European powers would have paid q
higher price.
There are those who contend iC would
be better to decline indemnity alto
gother, be, ause the government could
then decire responsibility for the Phil
ippine debt.
PARIS, NOV. 23.-There is a differ
ence of opinion among unofficial people
ntar the commissions, but the predic-
ton is made that Spain will decline
the American offer of money; that she
will refuse to cede the Philippines, and
will say to the United States:
You may take the archipelago, be-
cause you have the power to do so. AS
you advance, we will retirc, protesting
against greedy aggression. We will
faithfully carry out our protocol pledges
aud leave Cuba and Porto Rico in your
hands. You came here to engage in a
discussion under the terms of the pro-
tocol, but you evidently meant, when
drawing up that document, to provide
q conference in which, though we diff
fer, man to man, you proposed to an
nounce, at the proper time, what you
will do, whether we agree 10 it or OBJ
ject.
"Such an attitude robs the confer
ence of negotiative character, and sets
up the United States as a dominant
power whose first purpose is to listen,
but whose ultimate determination is to
do its own will"
AS matter of fact Senor Montero
Rios is reported to have used virtually
such language and arguments as the
| foregoing.
He said more even, indicating a high
degree of eXasperation at the American
offer of $4,000, 900. His manner, no
less than his words, betrayed his repug-
| nance.

"WaS YOUR command fuzzy supplied
with food and ammunition? asked
General Wilson.
"The ammunition supply was excel
lent The food was insufficient There
was plenty of food back at Siboney j
suppose it was lack of transportation
facilities that kept us without food un.
I'll July "a. | organized transporta.
tion CORPS with the officers horses and
went to Siboney and got food for the
men. Then later got into Santiago
and bought rice and milk. IL we had
had the mule trains that we were forced
to leave behind at Tampa there would
have been no lack Uf supplies"
Replying to questions, Colonel Roose-
welt said other regiment at the front
suffered from lack of supplies. The
rough riders had enough to eat, but 1t
was the result of individual effort and
individual expenditure. There was n
great scarcity of all medical supplies at
the front, except quinine and calomel,
and a great lack of surgeons and hos
pital stewards.
With reference to Camp Wikoff, Colo.
mel Roosevelt said there was great con-
fusion for the first few days after tho
ARRIVAL of the troops. He further said
iu part:
"During these days / do not think
our men were treated as well as they
should have been so near home, but
after that there was nothing that /
could find fault with. l thought our
brigade was admirably treated and our
sick admirably cared for" He said he
spoke only for hls own regiment.
"Why was there a scarcity Of medical
supplies in Cuba? ?" asked DR.. Conner.
II don't know. | heard there were
plenty on the ships. There was la
mentable need of ambulances. | think
we could have done better with fewer
men and more transportation"
"Were the privatlons greater than
you expected"
II did not expect anything l went
to take things as they came. l think
that nearly all the privations there
might have been avoided If the trans.
portation facilities had been better ar
ranged"
"have you anything you can suggest
| to us for the futureY" asked General
| Wilson.
al believe all the difficulties we met
with would be obviated in the future if
| the national guard were trained as are
| the armies of foreign countries. Give
them long marches. Let them mass at
San Antonio and move to Galveston OF
some other place. March them to a port
and embark them. No matter if it does
cost money. Let them be trained. Each
year let the army in peace be put
thu ough the experience it must meet in
time of war"
"Then, " said Ex-Governor Woodbury.
"you think that to the ineXperence OF
the officers were due most of the dis
| comforts suffered"
Il think the trouble was due to the
system even more than to any indlvid
ual experience. The lack OF adequate
transportation was the greatest trou
