Patrons Complaint.

Editor Herald: Through the medium
Of your paper, | desire enlightenment
from the School Board of Farmvllle as
to their reasons for excluding the farm
ers children from the Public School.
The State makes a boast Of its free
schools, they may be free to the colored
population, but fail to see where the
freedom to the ax-payer comes in.
Five months schooling in a log cabin
may satisfy some people who never
aim higher than picking tobacco
worms, but when country patrons go
to considerable expense and trouble,
buy books and send their children
miles to be met with such reception
as they have just received at your pub
lie school | think the board ought to
explain their actions through the pub
lie press. Why was this new scheme
not aired on Monday morning instead
OF putting their names on the roll, buy
ing new books and thenrefusing them
admittance on Tuesday?
We farmers can't all move into
Farmville. Were the school rooms
crowded, there might he some excuse,
but there Is lenty Of room.
The farmers children can go there,
and pay fee, while other towns in
the State Of like size make no charge,
] understand, but they are debarred
from the public school which formerly
was free. II this is a new law, why
did the board not make the matter
public sooner? An explanation
through your paper will greatly oblige
some Of the farmer patrons.

AID NAUSEAM.

All this talk of the Presidents cabinet
campaigners and their henchmen
against what we formerly knew as
trusts is sickening.
The Devil denounces sin when he is
sick, and the Republicans talk when
they are seekers Of the spoils. Sam
Small got drunk while on temper
ance tour, but let us hope ii was an acct.
dent. bet when Republicans in office
persisteltly, consistently and incess-
emily foster combines, it is folly inten-
sifed to be denouncing them when
they are playing outs.
Such Inconsistency is violently in
decent. And will such insolence be
mistaken for argument again. With
millions enough to wash it down, yes,
but without such supporting, no.

The virginia Conference.

The Virginia Conference Of the Meth
odlst Episcopal church, South, will be
held this year in November, and prep
arations are now being made for tie
great gathering
Owing to the fact that the past year
with the churches Of the Virginia Con-
ference has been a most successful one
in all lines Of religious work, IL is the
expectation Of prominent men identi-
fled with the denomination that the
coming meeting will be one Of the best
Of the one hundred and twenty annual
meetings held yet.
Bishop w. w. Duncan, who grace.
fully and successfully presided oyer the
last two sessions Of the conference, will
be at the helm this year. This will
cause not little rejoicing among the
Methodist workers, because Bishop
Duncan is popular, and there is more
than ordinary confidence reposed in
him.
The terms Of four Of the presiding
elders in the conference will expire
with the conference year, and just that
many districts will have new heads
after the appointments are given out.
These are Rev. J. II. Amiss, Of the
Rappahannock district; Rev. Paul
Whitehead, Of the Lynchburg district;
Rev. w. G. Walden, Of the Portsmouth
district, and Rev. William E. Judkins,
Of the Norfolk aud Eastern shore dis
trict.
1t will be noted that Rev. w. V.
Tudor, ID. d., Of the West Richmond
district, are eligible to reappointment,
and it is likely that they Will be re
turned to their present posts by Bishop
Duncan.

STILL RUSHING.

No amount of automobile horrors
deters the next fellow from the break
neck speed. They rush over the same
speedway, along which predecessors
lose their lives, and only stop long
enough to view the blood spots, when
mad dash is still the word.
Mr.. Schwab stopped at the fateful
spot where the Fairs were dashed to
death against the tree only long
enough to catch breath, and then shot
on for gay Paris recklessly bent on get
ting there before the railroad train
which left Hayre at the same moment.

Tobacco Growers Take Nctlcel

farmers, In regard To the best method
of curing the crop of tobacco, OF 1902, In

the demands of the Farmville market.
we, the Tobacco Board Of Trade Of the
Farmvllle market, beg To say to our
farmer friends that with the best in
formation before Us, we think II would
be best for the farmers to cure all OF
their tobacco, suitable for Austrian and
Italian purposes and even the fine black
wrappers with smoke as usual, but we
are of the opinion that all tobacco Of
the shorter manufacturing types grown
In sections Of country that can be fiue-
cured or air.cured successfully will net
the farmers more money than II would
If fire or smOke-cured, Our market Is
now open for the sale Of smoked to
baccos and also fue and air-cured.
The American and Imperial Tobacco
Companies will have buyers here for
the fiue and air-cured tObaccOs, and
the farmers will get as good prices on
this market for these grades Of tobacco
as they can obtain on any ofthe South
ern markets. Independent manu-
facturers and exporters will also be
represented in our market for flue, air
cured and smoked tobacco. Our t0bac-
co board wish TO impress upon our
farmer friends, that our market will
be open for the sale Of all grades Of
tobacco, fue-cured, air-cured sun.cured
and smoked and will endeavor to COM
