WAR TAX REDUCTION
Ways and Means Committee Vote UnanI'
mousIy for 1t.

Washington, February 3.-The Ways
and Means Committee of the House by
unanimous vote today ordered favorable
report on the war tax reduction bill.
A surprise occurred when Representa-
tive Babcock, Republican member, offered
his bill largly reducing duties on the steel
schedule and placing some articles on the
free list, as an amendment to the tea re-
peal section. The amendment was defeat
ed 6 to 7, Messrs Babcock and Tawney
and all the Democrats voting in the af'
firmative. The Cuban reciprocity question
also came up Unexpectedly, Representa-
tive Seele, of Indiana, moving a % pei
cent concession on Cuban sugar. The mo-
ton was withdrawn, however, after brlel
exchange of comment.
The closeness of the vote on Mr.. Bab-
cocks amendment reducing the steel sched
ue caused much comment. Messrs. New
lands and Cooper, Democrats, and LoDf
and Hopkins, Republicans, were absent
1t was explained on behalf Of the absent
members that they were either out of the
city Or detained at important committee
meetings elsewhere, and that the BabcocE
motion was entirely unexpected.
The motion of Mr.. Steele for 70 pei
cent reduction on Cuban sugar was regard
as rather facetious and as rejoinder tt
the unexpected motion on the steel sched
ule. Representative Robertson, Of Louisla'
ma, who is opposed to reduction on Cub
an sugar, was among those who voted fo
the Babcock amen lment.
The bill was subsequently, reported Z
the House.

Vaccination Only Safeguard.

There ought to be a uniform, compulso'
ry vaccination law in Virginia. Smallpox
is getting to be such common disease in
this section of the State that PEOPLE are
growing very careless about taking the
necessary precautions to prevent the
spreading of the loathsome disease.
In nearly every county in Southwest
Virginia there are now a number of cases
of smallpox and in the coal fields the dis
ease is very prevalent. This condition has
resulted from lack of general vaccination,
for in nearly every instance the disease
has been conveyed to and received from
persons who have not been vaccinated.
The reason is partly from the fact that
some persons have not been supplied with
the means and the opportunities to secure
vaccination; but in most instances it has
been caused by the stubborn, persistent
refusal of men to have themselves and the
members of their families vaccinated.
In any town, city or community where
there has been anything like complete
general vaccination, smallpox has been re-
duced to a minimum. The city of Chica-
60 has for some years had strictly en-.
forced, compulsory vaccination ordinance,
and the result has shown the wisdom of
the law. Smallpox can take no hold in
Chicago. If a case comes into the city it
finds but few who are likely to suffer from
contagop. as all residents are protected
by thorough vaccination.
Every county in Southwest Virginia
ought to enforce the present laws that pro-
vide for compulsory vaccination, and if
the laws are not full enough to secure
proper enforcement the necessary legisla'
ton should be secured at the coming ses-
sion of the Legislature.
Thorough, compulsory vaccination will
be great economy. A large part Of the
revenues of 1azewell county, and other
counties in the Southwest, will have to be
paid out this year on account of the small
pox. Vaccination is not only protection
from the disease, but general vaccination
will save many thousands of dollars to the
taxpayers.

LOCAL ITEMS
WHAT HAS RECENTLY TRANSFERRED
IN THE COUNTIES OF THIS
SECTION.

The case of Charles Fay, the negro who
shot and killed Mr.. Dayton II. Miller,
treasurer of the Cranes Nest Coal Compa-
nv, on the 10Th of last December, was
heard in the county court of Wise county
last week. The trial resulted in hung
jury, eleven of the jury being for the death
penalty and one for life Imprisonment
This result of the trial was quite surprise
as the killing was a cold blooded murder,
and without one extenuatlng circumstance.
At the time OF the shooting there were
threats of lynching, but MIR. Miller appeal
ed to his friends to let no such course
be taken, but to let the law be administer
ed. When be made this appeal he knew
death was near at hand, bat showed hi'
splendid manhood and citizenship by
standing for law and order.
Mr.. R. W. Willis has rendered his
resignation as treasurer of the Virginia
Irou, Coal & Coke Company, to take effect
on the 10th of this month. This company
has its headquarters at Bristol, and its af'
fairs are in the hands Of receivers. MIR.
Willis will go to Nashville, Tenn, to en-
gage in business with ex-State Treasurer,
Craig, of Tennessee, who preceded Mr..
Willis as treasurer of the Va. l., q. &. Z.

Tragic Death

Daniel H. Harman, Jr., of Welch, w.
Va, was killed at that place on last Satur-
day morning at one o'clock, by DIR. s. A
Daniels. The two men had been engaged,
with others, in game of cards, and be-
gan to dispute about something. This ul'
timately led to collision, and the shoot
ing of Harman in the heart, causing in
slant death. The warmest friendly rea-
tions had heretofore existed between the
two men, and it is said that DR.. Daniels is
almost crazed with grief over the unfortu-
nate tragedy.
Mr.. Harman was about thirty-eight
years old, and the youngest son of ID. ID.
Harman, formerly citizen of this county,
but for number of years prominent cit
izen of Mcdowell. Geo. w. Harman, who
lives on Dry Fork in this county, is
brother of the deceased, and Mrs. D. q.

Harrison, of Abb's Valley, are his sisters.
He was a married man and is survived by
his wife, two daughters, twins about fit'
teen years old, and three sons, aged, re-
spectively, thirteen and eleven years.
DR.. Daniels is a native of Tazewell coun-
ty, and is postmaster at Welch. From
what we can learn he killed Harman in
selfdefense.
The body was brought to Tazewell anc

HOND0 MINE DISASTER.
EiQhty.Four Bodies Taken Out, Eighteen
Men Still Missing.

Eagle Pass, Tex. february 9.-Eighty'
four bodies and sixteen men barely alive
some of them horribly fhangled, have
been taken from the Hondo Mines. Tie
foul odor from the mines caused thesearch
for the bodies to be temporarily disconlin'
ued, but disinfectants arrived this after
noon and the work will be resumed.
The shaft had lis men enrolled, and
eighteen are still missing. Twenty-Five
head Of dead mules have been /; ken from
the shaft.
The damage to property is verv great.
The company obtained all the pnysi-
clans and nurses that can be secured from
all points, and is doing everything posi-
BILE to save any of the miners who may
still be alive.
The scene at the opening of the mine
was Horrible to contemplate. Wives,
mothers, and children of the dead and
mangled men who perished in the explo-
sion, were screaming and crying and they
refused to leave the scene.
Eagle Pass, Tex, Feb. 9.-Of those who
are known to have gone into the mine
there are as yet about forty to be account
ed for. These are not likely to be living,
for, if not killed outright, the deadly car
bonic oxide following the explosion will
unquestionably overpower the remaining
men.
A pathetic story is told of a little mule
teer who was brought up alive. His brain
was injured, and he continued running
around in a circle. dis brother recog-
nized and embraced him, exclaiming,
"My brotber!' On being released the
little fellow again began running around
and then dropped dead.
The direct cause of the explosion is not
yet known. The accepted theory is igni'
ton by naked light. The mine is about
twenty-five feet deeper than those adjacent
having depth of 375 feet, and is a dry
mine, consequently fine explosive coal dust
finds !odgment on the floor and is often an
unsupported danger. A combination of
gas and dust may account for the explo-
sion.
General Manager Johnson, of the Mexl'
can International Railroad, is also general
manager of these mines. He went to the
mine on special engine Saturday and is
still there. A dozen surgeons secured
from accessible points along the road and
from the frontier, are doing all that is
practicable for the living. The dead are
being buried.
