preventative Maynard was in Washing
ton to-day on business before the Navy
Department What we are most-tnter-
ested tn down in my section OF Virginia
is in the coming ter-centenary celebra-
ton at Jamestown have seen several
members Of the House Committee on In
dustriaI Arts and Expeditions to-day ana
feel greatly grathed at the interest
they seem to feel in the jamestown Elk
position scheme, and the disposition they
are displaying to stand by me when l
open up my fight for good, soma ap-
preparation for it from Congress. l nave
already assurances from a number or my
fellow committeeman that they are with
me and that 1 will have their votes
when the time comes.
ST have not quite made up my MIND
how much money I shall ask for, but
it will be as much as I think I can get.
OF course I do not intend to overreach
myself and lose a fair amount by try
ing to get too much, but hardly think
that when my bill goes In Will os nc
cused Of being modest"
Mr.. Maynard is another one OF the
Democrats who do not believe the recent
southern trip Of President Roosevelt 8
will have any material effect on the po-
ltical situation. People like to see the
President always. They flock to see MIN
lust as they flock to see q circus or
balloon ascension. Then In addition 10
their curiosity, there Is a feeling OF SEN
tinient throughout the country IN regard
to the President of the United States.
But If you try to go any deeper than that
for the effect produced by this renee
building tour through the South, think
you will experience difficulty In locating
any actual beneficial results to the Presl-
dent. Men will cheer him and throw their
hats up in the air when he comes by,
but when voting time comes they will
not be influenced by having seen him.
Mr. R. l. Barnes, of the r. L. Barnes
Safe and Lock Company Of Richmond,
has just established branch store in
Baltimore. He has not decided upon
location for his Baltimore offices yet,
but will do so shortly Mr.. F. H Coch-
mower will be his agent In Baltimore.
