Wentzes May Back Mr. Carter,

The Bristol Courier says: cit now
seems more probable that Mr.. George
L. Carter, of the South aud Western
railroad, may interest other capitalists
in the project of completing the road
from the Southwest Virginia coal fields
to the eastern seaboard. A rumor is
now current that DIR. Johu >. Wentz
and his son, Daniel Wentz, of Phia-
delphia, may become interested with
Mr., Carter in the construction Of this
road DIR. Wentz aud son were in
Bristol Sunday in conference with Mr..
Carter and his attorney, having re-
turned here from points in the coal
fields where they had been inspecting
the operations. Mr., Carter, it is I'M
derstood, was with them in the coal
fields.
"a gentleman, who is in position
to know, was asked about the rumor
yesterday, but he would not confirm
or deny it. He said it was fact that
Mr.. Wentz and his son had been here
to see Mr.. Carter, and they had been
together in the coal fields, but further
than this he stated he was not in po-
sition to say.
"It can readily be seen why the
Wentzes would be interested in the
construction of this line of railroad

President Will Declare New Deal

WASHINGTON, d. O., November 9l.--
Federal office-holders who have enjoy
ed two terms of service would better
do the graceful thing and announce
voluntary retirement, for the president
will declare a new deal all around after
March 4, He thinks if two terms is
enough for him it is enough for the
others. OF course, such a general rule
will have exceptions, as the efficiency
Of the public seruice must not be i'm
paired. It will be the rule, however,
that Office holders must give way after
two terms; in fact, few of the MeKin-
ley appointecs will be retained. The
"shake-up" will go through all the
revenue, customs and postal depart
ments, and will include even the con-
sular officers.
The president proposes to have O
Roosevelt administration. but there is
no feeling against any of the nominees
of his predecessor. 1t is simply his de-
sire to name his own men, and the con-
viction that two terms is enough.
Hints OF this administrative purpose
have come from the White House al
most every day since the election. It
is now reported upon such authority as
to make it unquestionable.

remark Justice of the Peace Reese this

The boys had little or no defence and
one witness swore that he had seen

TAKE DEFEAT VERY HARD
SOUTHERN DEMOCRATS SAY BREAK
LOOSE FROM THE PARTY
OF THE NORTH.
One Plans for Secession of the Southern
States

There has arisen since the over
whelming defeat of the Democratic
national ticket a decided disposition
on the part Of the Southern democrats
to cut off from the party of the North
and go IT alone In signed article in
the Huntsville, Ala, Mercury, Robert
I. Bentley, a well known man, says:
cit appearing that Theodore Roose-
welt, the head and front of the Repub-
lican party, which represents the dan
gerous policies of civilization, protec-
tive tariff, Imperialism and social
equality. has been elected president of
the United States by strictly electoral
vote, and has established an insur-
mouUtable barrier between the North
and South, ] feel constrained to ex-
press my humble opinion, as a true and
patriotic American citizen Of the South,
that if the republican party should con
tinue its dangerous policies for the
next four years and should triumph in
the next national election, that the
thirteen States which voted for Alton
B, Parker should secede from the union
and by force of arms resist an oppres-
sion which means the early fall of our
great Republic"

No More Suffering.

If you are troubled with Indigestion
get a bottle of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
and see how quickly it will cure YOU.
George A. Thomson, of Spencer, Ia. :
says "Have had dyspepsia for twenty
years. My case was almost hopeless.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure was recommend
ed and I used few bottles of it and it
is the only thing that has relieved me.
Would not be without it. Have doc
tored with local physicians and also at
Chicago, and even went to Norway with
hopes of getting some relief, but Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure is the only remedy
that has done me any good, and I
heartily recommend it. Every person
suffering with indigestion or dyspepsia
should use it. Sold by Ii. @. Miller,

when we consider the fact that the
Wentz coal and coke operations are
located wholly on the L. aud N, an
all their outpnt must be marketed over
this rout. When the South and West
ern is completed through along Cliach
River from CIinchport to st. Paul it
will then be within about 10 miles Of
the Wentz operations. BY the COM
pletion OF this connecting link along
Guest River from St. Paul it would
give them an outlet to the eastern

virginia & southeastern.

A few weeks ago the Virginia 4
Southeastern Railroad was incorpo-
rated with no very we'll defined object,
apparently, as no specific details were
forthcoming as to the location or
length of the line which it is proposed
to build. Among the incorporators,
however, were we'll known capitalists
identified with Virginia Iron, Coal 4
Coke and others interested as individ-
ual owners in Virginia and West Vir-
ginia coal lands. This fact indicated
for the incorporation a degree of i'm
portance which is sustained by infor-
nation gathered from people identified
with the project.
The larger plans Of the promoters,
which so far are only tentative, may
result, it is stated. in a new through
line from the lakes to tidewater. Fig
uring in such q system would be the
proposed new road, and the Virginia
& Southeastern which is owned by the
Virginia Iron, Coal & Coke Company.
The latter line is 1876 miles in length
and has trackage rights for short dis
tances on the Norfolk & Western and
Louisville & Nashville. To reach the
seaboard it is proposed that use shall
be made of the Tidewater Railroad sur
vey which received financial support
from certain Standard Oil interests
who, however, withdrew from the pro-
ject some months ago. Meanwhile
surveying continued and there are evil
dences that large interests are again
aiding the scheme.
Intentions in regard to the Virginia
Southeastern, Virginia Southwestern
and the Tidewater Railroad are more
or less clearly defined and cover the
scheme of new road extending from
the Ohio river to some point on the
Atlantic seaboard near Norfolk. In q
general way it is proposed that ulti-
mately these plans shall take the shape
of through line from the great lakes
to the seaboard, but at present it is not
stated what would constitute the north
ern end of the system though there are
intimations that the Detroit Southern
might be used in this way. The stocks
of this road have had large advance
in the past couple of weeks without any
very logical reason being assigned
therefor.
Present plans of the Virginia&South-
eastern, 30 far as they have taken def
mite shape at all, have only done 30 as
regards territory south of the Ohio
river and the project for through
route to the lakes is still quite intangi-

AN OLD CITIZENS VIEWS.

In an interview given out here Gen.
John W. A. Sanford, one of the oldest
and best known citizens of the State,
says that 'the South is practically os-
traqsed, There is one policy for the
SOrth to pursue that it may retain its
prestige, its honor and all it holds dear
in its social as well as political life.
Abjure national politics, participate in
no future national political conven-
tions. Allow the northern democrats
al d northern republicans to hold their
own conventions and vote their own
tickets Let the South select and
elect its own electoral ticket and vote
in the electoral college for that party
or candidate whose principles are more
in accord with our own policies, and
whose policies will promote in the
greatest degree the peace, power and
prosperity of the southern people.
And wien we become more populous
and more wealthy, the northerners will
court the Southerners, our interests
will be more respected and our views
Of government will receive greater con-
sideration from the political parties of
the northern States"
