MIR. 10. WINNER has purchased n
corn shredder and husker, which, if
IL works up to the guarantee, is n

The machine shucks the corn, Gu. 8
up the fodder, and carries it away.
The advantages of this method of
saving fodder are many to the farm
er, as can readily be seen. These
machines are in general use in the
west, and we see no reason why
their use should not become general
here. We hope Mr.. WINNER will
give us report of the behavior of
this machine.

The Candidacy.

MIR. Smythe's withdrawal from the
race for the Legislature takes from
the campaign what little hope, or
fear, may have been entertained, of
O contest, and leaves the field clear
for MIR. Moss, He is, generally
speaking, acceptable to both politi-
cal parties, not because of his pro
nounced or avowed political princi-
pies, but because Of his qualifications
otherwise, to represent the county
in the legislature fairly and wisely.
The question of United States
Senator has overshadowed all the
.uestions from the very incipiency
of the campaign. But there are
Pther serious questions to come be-
fore the next Legislature. The
Questions of constitutional CON
ention, bill to prevent votebuying,
neans to increase the revenues of
State so as to meet the increased
crest on the State debt, which
.--s into effect in .Tnlv 1901, are
some of the questions which will
come before the next General As
sembly. So the coming session
promises to be one of Importance 20
to Virginia. Besides these many
questions of local interest and needs
will be brought up. Tazowell and
many other counties need some leg
islation on the roadquestion, to which
1t is hoped MIR. Moss will give his
best attention.

The Growing Pension List.

There are still many thousands OF
unadjudicated pension claims on Tile
in the Pension Bareau, claims that
are based on services of sufferiDgs in
the Union, cause during the war be-
tween the States, which terminated
neatly thirty.five ye,rs ago. The
number of pensi 5Eers is not far from
the million mark 1t is probabIe
that more than enough of the pend
ing claims will be allowed to pass
that mark, necessitating an increase
in the annual appropriation for pen
slons, which Is now more than u
hundred and forty million dollars.
In view OF these facts it is sad to
contemplate the coming Of O new
crop of pensioners. Commissioner
Evans states that there are already
on file in his Office claims for pen
sions resulting from the Spanish
war numbering twenty thousand.
There were only about forty thous.
and soldiers engaged in that was, so
the pensioners already amount to
half of tho whole number engaged
and more are yet to come. Then
there is the Philippine war. BY the
middle Of December, the American
soldiers aud sailors in Luzon will
amount to seventy thousand. If hall
OF these become pensioners, in adj
dltion to the twenty thousand of the
Spanish war, the pension roll will be
heightened by the addition Of forty
five thousand names. We would not
be understood as opposing the pay
ment of pensions to the men who
fought and suffered in foreign war.
Their claim is, to say the least, as
good as the claim OF the Union
veterans in the war between the
States. But the magnitude of the
burden imposed upon the country
ought to check the e1trSvagance Of
Congress in prodigally pouring out
the peoples money and ought to in
duce the greatest rare OH the part OF
pension officials TO exclude from the
roll all unworthy applicants. War liz
at best costly business, and it ap.
pears from the above figures that the
cost does not close witt. tho actual
duration OF the coutlict. Coming
generations will have to bear part
OF the burden Of the present war as
well as of the war that ended at APP
