Death Of the Oldest Citizen.

On Monday at about noon Robert Max
well, aged ninety EIGHT years, died at the
home of his son, james Maxwell, at Max
well, six miles west of Tazewell. He was
the oldest citizen in the county and for a
number of years had been historic fig
ure. His ancestors were among the first
settlers in the county and were noted as
Indian fighters, They participated in the
fight in which the Indians were defeated
after they had rnasacred the Roark family,
which massacre gave the name of Roark e
Gap to the gap which leads from Baptist
Valley to Dry Fork. A few years ago the
skull of one If the Indians who was killed
in the battle was dug up at the grave yard
near Gap Store. The skull was nearly as
big as half busbel, which verified tradl,
ton as to the immense statue of some OF
the Indians who used to make their bloody
raids into this section.
Up to short time ago Mr., Maxwell re-
manned in excellent mental condition, and
having been associated while child and
boy with many of the original settlers
could give many interesting details of the
early history of Tazewell. he is survived
by one son, james Maxwell, and three
daughters, Mrs. James Yost and VIM.
Cecil, of Tazewell county, and Mrs Mollie
Mcneil, Of Colorado. He leaves number
of grandchildren and t.grandchildren.

Judging from present indications, there
will be very large crowds in attendance
each day Of the Fair. Our people will
avail themselves of this excellent oppor-
tunity to meet and greet each other and
at the same time be well entertained. The
exhibit Of live stock promises to be by far
the best that has ever been held at Taze-

DEMOCRATS SHOW DESIRE TO TRADE
Candidates for Congress, Thinking Park
sr Fight Hopeless, Deserted by
Financial Backers, Offer
Votes for Roosevelt.

Washington, Aug. 28 Reports Of a char,
acter likely to occasion considerable
anxiety to Chairman Babcock, Of the Re-
publican Congressional Committee, and
incidentally, 10 Sheehan, Belmont, Nc
Caren 4 Company are reaching Washing
ton daily and are likely 10 demand atten-
ton from the leaders If both parties in the
immediate future.
That democratic candidates for the
House are hoping to trade votes for Rouse.
welt is the burdent Of the complaint thar
has reached Washington trom various
sources '''.'' ."'.'-.''
Going into details 1t appears that Demo.
cratic candidates for Congress practically
abandoned 10 their own resources by the
Democratic Congress Committee, are
anxious TO avail themselves of the wide
popularity of President Roosevelt, of the
generally admitted futllity Of attempting
to elect Parker and of local differences, to
trade votes for Roosevelt and Fairbanks
for votes for the local candidate for Con-
gress.
1t is hardly believed that Chairman
Cowherd, of the Democratic Congress Cam
paign Committee, would sanction this
system Of trading, desperate as is the sit
uation which confronts him and his asso-
cates on the committee, but some of his
associates declare that no one can blame
either the Congress Committee or the can
dldates if fsuch system is being planned,
in view of the senseless treatment accord
ed the Congress Committee by Sheehan,
Belmont, McCarren and Company. In
connection with this it is noteworthy that
Chairman Taggart is being gradually alb
solved from blame for the extraordinary
position In which the Congress Committee
is placed. on the ground that he is only
fgurehead, and in no way responsible for
the conduct of the campaign.

JAPAN NOTIFIES POWERS.
VIII take Steps 10 Project Her Interests
Unless Russia Disarms Ships
at Shanghai.

Wa, a,hington, August 27.-Japan has ad-
dressed note to The powers informing
them that unless Russia forthwith disarms
her warships in Shanghai, Japan will be
forced t5 take whatever steps che deems
necessary to protect her interests.
Mr.. Takahira, the Japanese Minister,
called at the State Department today and
left with Mr.. Adee, the acting Secretary
of State, the communication of the Toxic
government.
To correspondent oil The Associated
Press, Mr.. Takaehira said tonight:
"While Japan sincerely hopes that the
reported intention Of Russia to disafm the
Askold and Grozovoi at Shanghai viii
probably be executed, my government
has felt that it was advisable to inform the
powers what must necessarily be its atti-
tude in the event that the disarInment Of
the Russian ships is delayed. The condi-
tions at Shanghai are peculiar because of
the many international interests there, and
my Government is desirous Of giving these
interests every consideration.
"Will it be necessary to send a japanese
squadron into Shanghai and take away the
Russian ships as was done with the Ryes-
hitelni at Chez FooPv the Minister was
asked.
"My Government has not indicated in
its note to the powers" the Minister re-
piled, 'just what steps will be necessary if
the Russian ships are not Immediately dis-
armed. But it should be remembered that
the Ryeshitelni was not completely disarm-
edIwhen seized by the Japanese, aud un.
der the circumstances her presence in Che
Foo was exceedingly disadvantageons to
the Japaneee for military reasons"
1t is understood that asImIlar note to that
presence by Mr.. Takahira today was also
delivered at the various foreign Offices by
Japan's diplomatic representatives.

Millard, Va, Aug. 20, 1904.

Tazewell Republican:
AS 1 have not seen anything from this
section in your valuable paper l will dot
down few lines for you.
Our prospects for the election of Colonel
Slemp are very encouraging at this time.
There are too many people now living who
remember the past days Of free trade, free
tramps and free soup houses that prevailed
when the Democrats had control Of the
Government to forget those days. The
Democrats at this time have no issue upon
which they can win.
Laboring men have come to understand
chat reduction in the tariff means reduc-
ton 10 wages. Some of the shallow-brain-
ed voters Of the Democratic persuasion are
trying to follow their bosses and are
crying ..'negrol" There are few of the
little, dirty Democratic papers that are al
so whooping "negro." Having no issues
to rely on they aretrying to prejudice the
minds of the white men by this cry Of ne
gro. They have forgotten that their Lame
Lion," as they call him, embraced two ne
groes at one time.
Yours truly,

IMPORTANT CASE
is DECIDED
Judge Henson Passes Upon Petition Of
Certain Citizens Of Buchanan County
TO Hare Their Names Certified
as Proper Voters.
The PETITION IS DENIED
About Three Hundred Voters Of That County
Who Paid Their Poll Tax as Requlr
ed by the Constitution Will not be
Allowed to Vote at the Next
Elaeti0H.

On account of mistake made by the
treasurer of Buchanan county in certifying
the list of voters in that county who had
paid their poll tax in time to qualify them
as voters, nearly three hundred men Will
lose their votes for the approaching Presl-
dental election.
On the 9Th day of June 1904, the treas
urer of Buchanan county filed list OF
voters who had paid their poll tax. This
list was not sworn to at time Of filing, but
, was sworn to few days thereafter, and the
list included only the names OF persons
who had paid their poll tax for the three
years next preceding. The list was duly
certified and properly posted.
Sometime afterwards, being advised that
the list should contain the names OF all
voters who had paid their poll tax for l9OS'
be fled an amended list, which contained
the names ofsome three hundred men who
bad paid their poll tax for 1908. This last
named list was also Ger tilted and posted
The voters embraced in the amended list
and not in the first list, having been adj
vised that the amended list 7as not valid,
fled their petition before Judge w. j..
Henson, praying for an order for certifying
their names to the various election officers
of Buchanan county as proper voters. The
question was also suggested that the first
list was invalid on the ground that it VAS
not legally fled until it was sworn to, and
that it was sworn to a few days after the
time allowed by law Petitions we're filed
and notices given the treasurer more than
thirty days after the posting Of the list.
On this state of the record it was held
by Judge Henson that, admitting for the
sake of argument that the first
list was fled after the time prescribed by
law, still, it was a valid list, because it was
never contemplated by the trainers of the
Constitution to place it in the power of a
treasurer to disfranchise a whole people.
And, besides, if be had filed no list at all,
he would be compelled by mandamus to
file it; and when filed in obedience to the
mandamus it would have been good, al
though filed after the time required by
law. And it is well settled that any officer
may vaIidly perform any act which hewouid
be compelled by mandamus to perform. 1t
was further held that the amended list was
invalid. After once filing valid list be
was as to this duty functus ofhcio. The
Constitution prescribes that any errors IN
the lists shall be corrected by the courts.
If the treasurer can file one amended list
he can file amended lists ad minimum. The
petitioners in this case not having filed
their petition within the thirty days time
prescribed by law, the court holds that II
has no power to grant the relief prayed
for. They have lost their right 10 vote by
their own neglect or delay.
