TAZEWELIA VA, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY l. 1900

1t begins to look W though the rival Or
ganizations will be at cross purposes In
their efforts to select Bryan delegation.
Close friends of Gormm say that he will
take charge personally Of the campaign
against the movement to send Bryan
delegation to the convention. 1t is also
suggested that Mr.. German will actively
enter the arena for the Presidential nomi'
nation. In view of the fact that the tree
silver followers did not even invite him to
the Bryan meeting, he ia now looked upon
by them as outside the "free silver" and
"Chicago platform" breastworks. Hence,
Germans participation in the anti'con'
vention campaign would be the signal for
a battle to the finish betw ween the gold
and free silver elements of the Democratic
party in the State.

EDITORIAL PARAGRAPHS.

Mr.. Bryan is talking himself to death in
the Eastern States, both politically and
physically.
At meeting Of the Maryland Editorial
Association held at Elkton, Nd, on the
23th ult., resolutions were adopted de-
claring that the best interests Of the pee
pie of the country demand the re n"n ina
ton and re- election Of President Mckinley.
Virginia Republicans now realize that
the success Of the so.called independent
Democrats means nothing, 20 far ~ honest
elections in the State are concerned. The
few independents who were elected to the
Legislature have displayed more anxiety to
get into the machine CAUCUS than to do
anything for the good of the people or for
honest elections. This should be valuable
lesson to Republicans.
The export of manufactured articles
from the United States during the year
1899 averaged more than million dollars
a dsy in value-the entire export trade CT
such articles for the year amounting 70
$3.50, ,O0O, ,0OO.. The free traders said that
the Dingley bill would destroy our export
trade in manufactured articles, hut there
has been an enormous increase in ita vol
ume instead Of reduction.
Judge Rhea was in Rich.nond one day
last week, and to reporter Of the News,
in speaking of the Waker-Rhes contest.
said 4: have clear case, and | believe
there are enough honest men Ia Congress
not to steal it away from me-" There
no danger of the honest men in Congress
stealing the seat for Walker. The danger
that Rhea apprehends is that the honest
men will restore to General Walker the
eeat of which he has dishonesty been
deprived.
There are some persons in our section
who seem to be sympathizing With the
Boers, and who are delighted when they
hear of British reyerses. The most Of our
people sympathize with the mother coun'
try--not only on account OF the blood re-
lationship of the two countries. bui be-
cause they know that in the Spanish.
American war it was England that pre-
vented Continental Europe from taking
up the cause Of Spain.
1t is thought that Mr.. Andrew Carnegie
will support MIR. Bryan for President at
the coming election. 1t will be rather
amusing to hear Democrats praising MI.
Carnegie, when it is remembered that In
1892 they abused him in the most un'
measured terms, and made his Home
stead strike" the leading issue Of the cam
paiQn. But the Democrats are always
ready and willing to recsnt and accept
the services OF those they have before de-
nounced. Witness Weaver, Mrs.
Lease, Altgeld, Tillman, and many others
that can be mentioned.

London, Jan. 29.~-No attempt to mini

the recent reverses of the British arms will
be made. This afternoon it ia acknow'
lodged that the most Ierious effort Of the
war has failed dismally, but there is no
sign or disposition among the leaders Of
public opinion to disguise these ugly facts
and there is every disposition to face the
full difficulties and discover the best way
out.
All hope of speedy relief Of Ladysmith
has been abandoned. The consensus oi
opinion among experts urges the immedi'
ate shifting Of the theatre Of war from the
Rocky Kopjes Of Natal to the open veld'
of the Free State; but one thing seems GER
tain, another long pause is inevitable, un'
less the Boert assume the Offensive, be-
cause even if Butler is to again attempt to
reach Ladysmi,h, the planning Of new
move will necessarily occupy time.

At this time, it is said, the clock IN
former Mayor Beatty's house, in VAST
ington, stopped. The hour of her vislon'
her friends say, was identical with that

Neither of the women mentioned has

three weeks. Neighbors and friends be-

HOW GEN. WALKER WAS DEFEATED
BRISTOL, VA,
Jan. 25, 1900.

ED. OF THE TAzEwELL REPUBLICAN
Was General James A. Walker elected
to Congress from the Ninth Virginia Dis
trct in 1898, if so, why was he deprived OF
the certificate; or was he defeated, if so,
how? He was elected in 1894 by nearly
600 majority, reelected i'll 1896 by an
Increased majority and in 1898 his aggre-
gate vote was greater than ever before
With few prominent exceptions he had
an united party at his back. Naturally,
some abnormal conditions must have ex
listed. What were they? The election
was the most corrupt ever held or capable
of being held in the district. Walker e
success had been phenomenal. There was
danger ahead. The decree was Issued
"Walker must and shall be crushed
"Walkerism," the synonym of aggressive
Repubcanism, must be defeated, or else
the Ninth District will be permanently
lost to Democracy. The election law, the
electoral boards, the judges of election
the methods and practices so peculiar ano
vel; known were resorted to; nothing nee
essary TO success was left unemployed
The ingenuity of man was taxed in ques
of instruments of fraud and force.
General Walker was defeated " a''C
counted out in the manner following, to
wit
1st. By resort to inducing two Negro
candidates to announce themselves II
order to defect part of the colored vote.
End. By resort to the "blue pencil a

BULLET NEAR
GOEBEL'S HEART.
TRAGIC Climax to The Kentucky Guber-
material Contest.
WHOLESALE LYNCHING PREDICTED.
Intense Excitement Prevails Throughout
The State and Terrible Times Are Pre-
dicted for the Old Commonwealth
-TaylOrjtes aud GOebel SYM
pathizerS Arriving by the
Thousands.

Frankfort, KY, Jan. 80. The guberna'
torial contest IN Kentucky between Will
liam Goebel, Democrat, and W.S. Taylor,
Republican, which has turned the State
into pandemonium, reached a tragic Gil
max this morning, when Senator Goebel
was shot from ambush as he entered the
capitol grounds. He is not yet dead, but
cannot live.
The bullet was fred from side window
on the third floor OF the executive build
ing. The people of Frankfort, especially
the Democrats, are worked up to frenzy
of excitement, and it is no exaggeratlon to
saw that state of anarchy exists. The
entire State militia has been ordered out
and Governor Taylor has stationed thirty
five guards at the executive office. The
least show of hostility on the part Jt either
faction may cost dozens of lives.
Senator Goebel was carried to the capi'
tol building in an apparently dying condl'
tion. Five shots were fired, but only one
took effect, lodging in the left breast near
the heart. The physicians have practically
no hope of Senator Goebel's recovery.
The shooting is attributed to deeply
laid plot, in which several lives were aimed
at. Troops are continually arriving by
special trains, and special trains, bearing
thousands of Goebel and Taylor advocates,
are also arriving, and their occupants are
separating into small armies. Terrible
times are predicted for the old common
wealth.
Many Goebel partisans, as soon as tht
firing ceased, rushed toward the end OF the
executive building which was occupied by
Governor Taylor A body of men, armed
with Winchesters, met them at the en-
trance.
"We want to search this building for thu
mm derer," cried the Democrats.
"You cant enter here" answered thu
Taylor men.
Pistols and guns were levelled; but sol
diers app ,ared upon the scene and march
ed between the two factions, and contilc
was averted for the time.
The widest excitement is said to pre-
vail at Covington, which is the home o
Senator Goebel, and 1t is predicted ther
that if Goebel dies wholesale lynchings a
Frankfort will follow.

several years ago.
She fell i'll three weeks ago. Dr. b. d.
B. Seght, of Lincoln Park, attended
her. Her aunt, Mrs. Van Ness, tells the
oorv of the vision convincingly, for she
is herself convinced.
She was sitting with the girl last Mon
day afternoon, she says. They prayed
together. She feared that her niece
inight die at any moment.
For long time the girl lay STILL hef
ewes fixed upon the ceiling, as II she
looked through and beyond it. Then she
turned to Mrs. Van Ness and said she hao

Her voice was calm. She seemed to be
of normal mind.
"What have you seen ?" Mrs. Van Ness
asked.
"My father and mother" the girl re-
piled. "They spoke to me. Mother tolc
me TO be a good girl. Father said, come
to me-
Mrs. Van Ness and the girl sang
HYMN together. A little later the CIR
died. Mrs. Van Ness is confident tina
her niece was rational and that she saw
that of which she spoke.
The other case is that of Mrs. Georg'
w. Beatty, of No. 81 Sussex avenue. Sh'
is sixty.two years old. She was attacked
by paralysis about four months ago. Jus
