tion and contrast the treatment Mr..

kiud. Every American is fully aware
of the fact of what would have become
of the head os the Confederacy and his
generals had they lived in any other
country but the United States. We
are entirely too tolerant and foIgiving
and when the men who left the Senate

their flag, not only pictured themseve es
and suffered self.inficted disfranchise-
ment, the men of the north only too
eagerly rushed to their rescue and by
new laws cast off the bars and admitted
them to citizenship again, and now to
crown it all the Republican party gives
back the flags captured in battle. Is
there anything else our misguided
of the South desire. The Davis fsmity
have every reason to be happy in the
fact that the head of the family was
not hangea, and thus have to cary this
load of shame. His treatment whvtso-
ever it was, was mild iu commensura-
tion OF what it should have been. For
the good of the country in its every
part let the war and its memories die
out, and then, and not until then, will
we become unit.

SOUTH s WESTERN GRANTED APPEAL
Virginia & Southeastern is Still restrained
from Work on Clinchport Line.

The complexion of the situation in
the South & Western and the Virginia
a. Southeastern railway controversy
was somewhat latered Wednesday
when the supreme court of appeals,
now sitting at Richmond. granted an
appeal from the decision re ndered
by Judge A. w. Skeen, of the Scott
county circuit court, in the case of the
injunction restrining the Virginia &
Southeastern from condemning prop
erty between Clinchport and st. Paul
that had already been recognized as
the route of the South & Western line.
The attorneys for the South & Western
were instrumental, in December last,
in securing the temporary injunction
which restrained the rival road from
proceeding with its survey between
Clinchport and st. Paul, which is in
Wise county. On the eighth of Febru-
ary the case was argued before Judge
Skeen and he decided to dissolve the
injunction granted by him in Decem-
Der, but gave the South & Western un-
til the eighth of March, amonth's time
In which to secure an appeal from his
decree to the court of appeals. The
petition was filed with Judge Buchan-
an, of the supreme court, and it was
granted on Wednesday, March 8th.
The granting Of the petition will
have the effect of leaving the situation
completely tied up, as far as actual
work is concerned, until the Supreme
court hears the appeal. The counter
iniuuctsons granted by Judge Skeen
on the 26th and 2Sth days of last De-
cember, in which the South & Western
and the Virginia & Southeastern are
alike prohibited from proceeding with
the work of constructing the Toms
Greek line, will be heard at the April
term of the Wise comfy court which
meets on the third of April. Bristol
