TAZfMELL AND WYSOR-

Keep In mind, We Democrats, that
the result OF the election on Nov. Sth
depends largely on Tazewell. Slemps
majority, two years ago, in the district
was 21S only; in Tazewell this majority
was 400. The total vote cast was about
1900. Quite number Of voters have
been disfranohised since 1902, but Just
In what proportion is not known. The
same all over the District. or course,
no one expects Slemp to carry the coun-
ty by 400 majority this time unless the
voters disfranchlsed were Democrats,
neither will he have to do 80 In order
to be elected. The vote this year will
be reduced all over the District, and II
Slemp gets the same percentage OF
votes this as at the last election, other
things being equal, he will be elected
In 1902 Slemp carried the district by a
majority Of about per cent. His una
jority In Tazewell amounted to about
10 per cent.
The same number OF votes will not
be cast this year, perhaps, but II the
same percentages stand, then, Slemp
will be elected. This is as we can see
it. II this reasoning and these figures
are correct 1t will be readily seen that
in order TO carry the District for wysor
Slemp must get smaller percentage
OF the total vote cast 10 Tazewell
Slemp's majority In Tazewell will, In
all probability, decide the election on
the Sth OF next month.
Now, will the Democrats get busy?

Home Missions.
Mrs. George Perry

We would be glad II any person see
ing the need Of home mission work IN
the town or community would report
to US. We are in earnest about this
matter, and hope 70 have the coopera-
ton OF those who are now seemingly
Indifferent.
A young man in Dallas, Texas, sacri-
feed trip to the Worlds Fair that
he might help to establish Settlement
Home In that city. Have we young
man In cur town who would do as
much for the help Of his fellow man2
The Kansas city Mission Board is
dealing with the italian problem as are
eur workers in Florida This Board
has two schools among them, number
ing about los in all. Bishop Hendrix
daughter has charge OF one OF the
clubs for girls.
Mr.. Shiramuya, a Japanese christian
OF our Alameda school, Is now In the
Sue Bennett school His expenses are
paid by a generous home mission
woman who has given 800 for the ex-
penses OF a student in this institution
DR.. Bird in writing OF Mr. Shiramuya
says: "He Is at present interpreter;
speaks good English and was a student
at our Guansei Gaquln University at
Kobe. Japan. but did not unite with
the church until he came to America.
He Is now an earnest christian worker
and wishes to prepare himself for mis-
sion work In Japan"
Mr.. Marnaku, OF our San Francisco
school, has entered Central College at
Fayette, Mo. He was converted
through the influence Of our schools
and is preparing to go back to his
country as missionary.
Is it not pleasant thought that II
we are faithful as Home Mission work
ers, we can have a part in evangeliz-
ing the whole world? Is it true that
we love our neighbors ACROSS the ocean
better than our neighbor OF the same
sort across the street?

Democratic Prospects.

While the pessimists are poo-hooing
the prospect OF Democratic victory in
the presidential election November 9Th
many well informed and conservative
Democrats who have travelled suffi-
GENTLY TO be better informed as to the
situation and the feeling of various
States, are very hopeful OF Parker's
election. That then hopes OF Parker
victory are not merely an iridescent
dream, they offer figures TO show their
faith.
National elections are controlled by
what may be called the floating vote
the independent element. This element
Ia bound to no party save as caprice
may temporarily bind them. On which
side OF the political dividing fence they
will land no one can foresee with GER
tainty. Still there is room for shrewd
conjecture and opportunity for cfrec-
tive campaign work.
Now. for few figures to show that
Parker's election is not torlorn hope;
To start with. the Democrats have q
nucleus Of l59 electoral votes. They
must get eighty more 10y carrying other
States. Where will the other eighty
votes be gotten?
Democrats generally believe that
New York will furnish 80, Or practical
ly half the number needed. The
party's prospects In that state are con
sidered brighter than ever since the
nomination Of Herrick for Governor
and the issue Of Parker's letter OF ac-
ceptance. 1t Is usually the case that
as New York goes, SO will New Jersey
and Connecticut. These two states
will furnish u and votes, respectively.
These, with New York, will make 2l7
votes, leaving % more to be secured
West Virginia will furnish Z, if the
Democrats carry It, a. it is believed
they will, this will leave but Is votes
10 be secured.
Granted that the Democrats carry
the t,tates above enumerated. they
have an excellent chance Of getting the
necessary fifteen votes from these
States: Colorado. 5; Nevada, 3: Mon
tana. 3; Utah, 3; Idaho, 3; South Da-
kota, 4; Delaware, 3; Indiana, Is. To-
tai. 80. 1t is not generally believed
that the Democratic prospects OF car
rying Indiana are bright, and 80, elimi-
mating this from the calculation, there
are left States with "a votes from
which TO get the necessary 10 Colo
RADIO and Nevada are now regarded az
Democratic States, and deducting
their eight votes from the 10 needed,
seven more must be secured TO win.
Utah Is almost surely Democratic, and,
placing 1t in the Parker column, four
more votes are necessary. Montana,
Idaho and Delaware. with three votes
each each, and South Dakota, with
FOUR, total for the four States of thir
teen, are left from which 10 draw the
necessary four electoral votes. Mon
tana and Idaho alone would make the
result assured. Delaware has usually
gone Democratic In presidential elect
ions, save in 1896 and 1900, when ex
traordinary conditions existed. Those
conditions no longer exist

WysOr Speaks
At Richards

Hon. Joseph c. Wysor. Democratic
candidate for Congress from the Ninth
Virginia District, spoke to large and
enthusiastic audience at Richlands last
Friday afternoon. The speaker was
introduced by T. A. Repass, ST., OF

COL. SLEMP.

Slemp and some OF his dirty bench
men are indelicate enough to i1slnuate
that j. q. Wysor is ardent devotee to
Bacchus. They will not gain any votes
for Slemp by such a course. Mr..
Wysor's appearance among the peo-
pie will amply refute the false accusa-
ton. He would not for a moment
deny that he had at intervals visited
the mystic shrine, but we know that as
a rule he practices total abstinence.
rtgidly and sets most worthy exam
pie.
On the other hand, we are reliably
informed that Slemp is almost con-
stantly Intoxicated, generally on mean
corn whiskey. He has given unmis-
taxable evidences OF this fact at num-
erous appointments, namely: Wythe-
vile, Marion, Bristol, Tazewell and
other places. Yet, we are told that he
was indiscreet enough to say In a
speech in Abingdon that he had never
been drunk ia his life, when the great
bulk OF his audience, no doubt, were
aware that his allegation was not true
or one thing the people of the Ninth
District may be sure, and that hs he
will never find J. c. Wysor lying about
anything.
But Col. Slemp's addiction to drink
IS not his chief detraction. During the
war he was courtmartialed and cash
Tered ut Bristol. Va. Is TO say
his commission as Colonel was taken
from him and he was removed from
that position. Col. Slcmp knows for
what reason, and there are many other
soldiers IN the district who are fully
posted on the subject.
On the 14th day OF Nav, 1895. he
was indicted in the United States
Court at Abingdon for unlawfully de-
manding, receiving and retaining from
Rebecca Pierson, the widow OF Union
soldier, $3.50. 13 OF her pension money
against the peace and dignity OF the
United States. The facts were that
he aided her in obtaining a pension Of
81 900, which included many years OF
arrearages, and he had her TO pay him
out of this sum $3.50. 10, when the
highest charge allowed by law was
$4,000. 1t seems that his contract was
for half of the pension. 1t is true he
was tried and acquitted. To cover up
his tracks it seems he conveyed the
widow a little piece OF mountain land
in Harland county, KY, without any
value, it is said, and by this subterfuge
escaped punishment
In 1S79-'S0. when he was member
OF the Virginia Legislature. he voted
for George Cook, a negro, who now
lives in Norfolk, against Arthur Sulli-
van, OF Christiansburg. a reputable one
legged Confederate soldier, for door
keeper Of the House OF Delegates of
Virginia.
The foregoing are not campaign sto.
ries, but facts, and they are not made
just on the eve of election, but in ample
time for Col. Slemp to answer and ex-
plain them. if they prove to be erro-
neous. There are many other chap
tiers in Col. SIemp's career. which
might be written, but we forbear for the
present.-Washington County Journal,
Oct. Z, 1904.
