life, even had his intellectual ability
been equal to the occasion, was a
strong argument against his being put
forward for position where strength
of body and mind counts so much.
Mr.. Linisay's letter emphasizes the
truth of these claims. He gives about
ten reasons why Col. Slemp should not
be renominated, chief OF which are.
that his course in Congress has clearly
demonstrated hi, inability and inefii-
cheney.
In this question alone is the public
chiefly concerned. Concerning the
charges OF duplicity, deception and
failure to keep promises, the public
may take note OF or not as it pleases,
but whether or not this district Is well
represented in Congress Is q
question which can be ignored or tam
pered with only at great cost to the
public. Democrat or Republican, we
ought to have a strong man i'm Con-
gress. and everybody knew that Col.
Slemp was not such n man before Mr..
Lindsay's letter.
Let the Democrats nominate strong
man for representative this fall, and
elect him. The Republicans them
selves cannot afford to elect Slemp,
and it is thought that they will not
make any great effort to do so.

ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY.

Every turn OF the commercial wheel
in Tazewell emphasizes the truth of
we need, and can secure a larger pOpu-
lation in this town.
Last week there was completed the
organization Of another large fire in
surance company. Still another ,om-
pany, though not composed of our
home people, it is said, will be located
here in the near future. The Union
Vehicle Repair Company and the Light
and Power Company, all new ones re-
Gently added TO the list. Now. all
these new enterprises are all right, and
will be encouraged, and no doubt, will
prosper, but do not every one of them
demand n larger population-more
people? How are these new insurance
people To prosper in a community al
ready shingled deeply with insurance?
How can new and more expensive
car line prosper without people TO
transport? The more people we have
to ride, the more houses TO insure. the
i..1n 20.
pie to buy goods from our large stores,
the more lights needed-more every
thing in the line Of growth. And how
in the world are ali these to prosper
without people? Are We not already
Insured? Are our houses not already
lighted? Can we hope to buy more
goods? Hardly. We can only prosper
by living upon the resources of each
other eating up each other We need
more people. We must have them or
cease to grow. We repeat, not one Of
our business enterprises established
here will attract population except,
perhaps, TO very limited extent. No
one is coming here specially to rile on
our new cars. No houses will be
moved here TO be insured or lighted.
We must have payroll attractior-
something to give employment to our
people, and it is not a question
whether we will but we must or cease
to grow. The steps we have taken i'm
peratively demand that we go further.

THE TOWN SUED.

We understand that Mr.. Thomas
Hankins has brought suit, through his
attorney, for $4,000 tor an injury sus-
tained some time ago in falling over an
embankment from dilapidated and
dangerous sidewalk. Mr.. Hankins was
on his way home from his store or n
dark night, and when near the Re
publican Office walked over a high
embankment, sustaining injuries Of a
painful nature.
There is food FOR thought" here for
those of our citizens who are opposed
to street improvement. Had We not
better tax ourselves To build good safe
sidewalks than to have 10 pay for the
broken bones of our citizens? In this
case II Is question of economy.

Mr.. LINDSAY'S LETTER

Mr.. Lindsay has issued circular
letter to the Republicans OF the Ninth
District giving the reason for his resig-
nation as chairman of the party in the
district, in which he arraigns Colonel
Slemp for duplicity and bad faith, and
that he Lindsay was slaughtered by
deception, etc. and also of using
what little influence he had in putting
members OF his own family in office. TO
the exclusion of his friends and
pledges outside, etc. Mr.. Lindsay's
letter is clear, straightforward and
full and gives the honest men OF all
parties something to think of and pom
der.
The Democrats need take little in
terest in the purely personal question
as. between Mr.. Lindsay and Mr.. Slemp.
They can settle the affairs which con-
Germ them only, between themselves.
However, Mr.. Lindsay's letter con-
tains certain stateme nts in which the
people Of this great district are all deep
