the losing side in game of politics
played in Rockingham. However,
there are five Swanson clubs in the
county.
Judge Mann's speech made a fine
impression today. 1t was devoted
largely to discussion of the Mann
bill. The fact that the law closed
mp only one saloon in the county
prevents it being much of an issue.
Mr.. Willard said, regarding the
Mann bill, that in so far as it sought
to regulate and control the liquor
traffic he approved it; in SO far as il
sought to prohibit the sale of liquor
he opposed it. He thoughtit should

CANDIDATES IN HARRIsoNBUsa

The big county of Rockingham on
Monday had a field day IN politics.
The game in that great Valley
county is worth fighting for and ali
the candidates know it. Senator
Martin sod Messrs Willard and
Mann each spoke az hopr apiece in
the order named. Mr.. Swanson Will
visit Rockingham later on. The
Times-Dispatch correspondent says:
The friends of Senator Martin
claim with confidence the county
Will give him a pronounced majority.
Supporters of Mr.. Swanson for
the gosernorship predict he will
carry the county by o large majority.

Friday, May 10, 1905.

In THIS section, the more the pity,
likes and dislikes of candidates have
been determined by local conditions
and factionsl lines. So it is pretty
apt to be true here that those who
are for Montague are also for Will
lard, and those for Martin are pretty
apt to be for Swanson. We do not
say that this is altogether true, for
there are lots of good, conscientious
citizens who stand for Montague
and Swanson, or for Martin and
Willard. In Lancaster, partic-
ulsrly, the majority of Democrats
have been for Martin and Swanson
for number of years, aud can see
no reason now to change. Certainly
they must be given credit for consis-
tency. Those who have been for
Montague for four years, and have
seen no new light, are also to be
credited with being consistent in re-
naming steadfast. The other priu-
cipal candidates (Willard and Mann)
have no such claims upon our people.
This is their first venture for leading
State positions.
. The principal argument of the
Montague-Willard people is that we
should have an ''orator" in the Senate.
While the present campaign, yet in
its infancy, has demonstrated how I'M
wise, not to say unfair, an ''orator" can
be, and that their "orator" is not the
only "it," for the sake of argument
let us grant their claim that ora
tory is the prime requisite. In
applying it to the staid and
prosaic United States Senate do
not forget to also apply it to posit-
ion which requires ten times the dow
of speeeh-the goyernorship. Mr..
Montague has devoted a third of the
year to "orating," and he says it was
for the good of the State, and Mon
tague sis an honorable man." What
are you going to do about ''orating"
should Mr.. Willard get to the guber-
material chairs Will you make a
clerk, letter-writer or a department
runner out Of himy How about it
when the whole world and the
mighty orators of States and nations
come to the "Jimtown" Exposition
two years hence, and the Governor
of Virginia must welcome them in
towering language? Mr.. Willard
admits that he is no orator, not even
s fair-to-middling speaker. So draw
your yard-stick, Mr.. Montague-man,
and by the same token you will have
to support Mr.. Swanson for govern
or. If oratory is to be the prime
requisite you must apply it to the
position your idol now is diguified
by, and you must. to be consistent.

Is acknowledged to be the only ora.
