NON-PARTIzANI8M.

Our old friend Frank Dorsey, of Bal.
timore, tells in the News of that city
who are being rewarded for having
proven loyal to the Rasin-G orman.
Hayes combine, which has made that
a Republican city. Of course these
loyal non-partisans have not worked
for nothing. He says:
If Mr.. Hayes is to be rewarded for
Olin Bryan's support of Gorman's
extra session by being placed in perma-
nent control OF the sewerage system.
will it be run on the same non partisan
basis as this city now is !? That is, mo
real Democrat, regular Republican or
Prohibitionist need apply" That
non partisan feature is the brightest
jewel in the new charter, and will
no doubt secure even better men for
the sewerage system than it has for
the city; for man who is neither a
Democrat nor Republican, but suffi-
GENTLY intelligent and Independent to
always vote for what will be to his
best PERSONAL interests. without re-
gard for principle, is now regarded as
the highest type of an American. And
as for the Prohibitionists, they would.
Of course, be regarded by the powers
that be and to be as a tough set, who
would waste lot of water for drink
ing purposes that could much better
be employed in flushing the sewers.

A Letter from Mr.. las. A. P0age.

There are doubtless many persons
yet living in Augusta county who lie.
member Mr.. James A. Poage, now OF
Roswell, New Mexico. He has one
sister still living in the comfy, Mrs.
Margaret Hanger, of Waynesboro,
widow of the late Peter Hanger, il.
The wife of Gen. Jas. A. Walker, of
Wytheville, is another sister. Mr..
Poage is son of the late Mai. William
Poage, of this county, and after pro.
curing license to practice law in this
city in 1913. removed to Texas in 1916,
having once visited Augusta in 1877.
He is now so years of age, but enjoys
good health, as he states in a letter to
the editor of this paper, dated March
II, which he says he wrote without
the use of glasses. In his letter, which
we are at liberty to refer to but which
was not written for publication because
of its personal nature, he recalls many
mutual friends and acquaintance, and
while most of the friends of his boy
hood have been gathered unto their
fathers, there are hundreds of his kin
dred still here who will be glad; we
know, to hear of his prolonged life and
good health. He informs us that one
of his best friends in Roswell is Archer
Il. Turk, branch of the old Augusta
stock of that name, who moved there
from northern Missouri, and who is
80 years of age, but hale and hearty.
He resides with son whose name is
Rudolph Turk, as he states one of the
most prominent and wealthy young
business men of that country. 1t is
always a pleasure to have letters from
those who are natives of Virginia,
and especially the Valley, for certainly
no man ever gazed on these mountains,
breathed this pure limpid air, or en-
joyed the hospitality that is dispensed
here without repeating:
''Breathes there man with soul SO dead
Who never to himself hath said
This is my own, my native land?''

We presume there never was greater
''rot'' issued to a gullible people than
that served up by the coal operators a
few years ago when tariff agitation
was rife. Nova Scotia coal was the
bugaboo. If coal was admitted free
our coal would be driven out of the
market by cheap Nova Scotia coal
and all our mines would close, so they
said. Anybody who knew enough to
come in out of the rain, knew it was
not true, but with money, printers ink
was made to flow, and orators were
hired to whoop and howl, the coal
miner was scared, and with other pro
tected industries rushing to their aid,
the operators succeeded in keeping
coal on the tariff schedule. Now New
River coal is being sold to Nova Scotia
dealers. They took 10000 tons last
week from the G. & O. Coal Company,
and this is just the beginning. We
suppose this ends that deceitful and
mendacious argument.
