GEN. ROssER, who some time ago lei
the democratic party and became re-
pnblican. and who has been a constant
applicant for Office and an incessan'
"kicker" because of his failure to secure
one, in an interview published in the
Charlottesville Progress yesterday at-
tacks the republican organization in the
State and says;
The localized politics in Virginia has given
the republican field to weak and non-repre
sentative men, many Of them obscure ana un
savorv. who make politics profession, ans
whose zeal is only measured by the amount oi
pelf the federal patronage yields TO them
President Roosevelt is not IN sympathy witt
the present manipulatOrs Of republican poll
ties in the south, and he wants the plans and
purposes of his great party laid before The
people and a contest made i'm open discus
Sion for the supremacy of party belet, 50 tha
the people may choose the rlght ana follow
lines of national character rather than local
and short range limits, without development
AN opportunity to grow. President RooSe'
welt is honest, frank, brave, and true; he rs
also a statesman and patriot, and whlle
these republican manipulators of the south
are allowed by the national committee TO oc.
cupy and hold the field he cannot put himself
i'm touch with the southern people, and fCr
that reason he wants the people of the south
10 align themselves anew. While this IS the
Presidents wish. the republican political MA
chine is doing all in its power to prevent the
accomplishment of his purpose, for 50 lar AZ
they are concerned, the party is quite big
enough to hold all the federal offices, ana
that is all that is sought or hoped for by them.
The present unhealthy situation is preferred
by them to one of sound political sanitation,
for they well know that if the house is put in
order more decent tenants than themselves
will move in and they will be ousted
From this it would appear that Gen.
Rosser would like to become the repub-
lican leader in the State, run things to
suit himself and the President, and then
get an office; but he is again doomed to
disappointment.

STATE CHAIRMAN BUSY.

State Chairman J. Taylor Ellyson
says of the campaign: "For the past two
weeks have been very busy comforting
and corresponding with the State Central
committee, and theexecutive committee,
and with the chairmen of the county
and city democratic committees, prepare
tory to the campaign. The actual
active stump canvass has not been
begun yet, and cannot be until
the intentions of the republicans
in the matter of making nomina-
tons are known. 1t now seems posi-
BILE that they will have one or more can
didates in the field, but until they de-
eide in what districts they will nominate
the campaign can not be made.
81 consider the registration of every
available democratic vote the most i'm
portant thing that can be done yet, and
am looking at that, with the co-opera-
ton of the State committees and the
local committee chairman. Unless the
democratic vote can be registered it will
be useless to make a campaign. That is
the matter of most pressing importance
ut this time, in my opinion. Registration
has been begun in few places, but will
not begin generally and actively until Sep
tember The Commuters and the local party
organization will spare no effort TO get the
full party strength registered.
"a meeting Of the State Central Committee
will be called soon, but at what date has not
vet been decided upon. As soon as the re-
publcans have determined what they propose
TO do the campaign in the contested districts
will be inaugunted and pressed until the day

THURSDAY EVENING. AUG. %, 100

THE Postoffice Department, as state
in Yesterdays Gazette, has sent out Il
letter which applies to all the employees
of that department, including individual
postmasters, which says: "You shoul'
not serve as chairman Of aState or coun
ty committee, nor take active part III
conducting a political convention, nor
make yourself unduly prominent in loca'
nnblic matters" 1t is stated that
the letter is in effect a concise abstract
Of the Presidents views and wishes, and
other employees. like those of the Treas
ury Department, will be expected I
oride their conduct by the spirit OF thu
letter and that it is by no means un'
likely that Secretary Shaw will, beiorN
many days, send a general letter to all
the employees of his great department
written along the above lines. Now MI
Agnew. of this city, is the collector OF IN
ternal revenue for the district and Is also
chairman of the republican State com
mittee. while Mr.. Crupper, Postmaste
at Alexandra, is chairman of the CIT
committee and member of the State com
mittee. Under the provisions of the new
order. both will either have to resign thel:
lucrative federal offices, or retire from
their respective political committees
which nav them nothing, and it Is no.
hard to guess which they will do. Bu
only a week ago the President sald th'
federal officeholders in the South mus
..qet out and hustle for their jobs, " 81
again they are 'twixt the devil and the
deep sea. Should the gentlemen referred
to retire from politics their opponent
would feel relief, for their successors
could hardly give the democrats more
trouble during election times. MI
Roosevelt is an cratic man and does no'
practice what he breaches. lie tells his
subordinates that they must not make
themselves prominent in local political
matters. while at the very time he, tn"
President of the country, is on polltlca:
tour through the eastern States, making
several speeches daily and using his ut
most endeavors to secure his own re
election two years hence. Consistency

BRAIN-FOOD NONSENSE.

Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent authori-
ties. They have dispelled the silly
notion that one kind of food is needed
for brain, another for muscles, and
still another for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish particular part of
the body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet, however good your food may
be, its nutrimentis destroyed by indi-
gestiOn or dyspepsia. Ycu must prepare
for their appearance Or prevent their
coming by taking regular doses of Green's
August Flower, the favorite medicine Of
the healthy millions. A few doses aids
digestion, stimulates the liver to healthy
action, purilies the blood, and makes you
feel buoyant and vigorous. You can get
