Senator rs. Martin Favors Rate
Legislation

Il wish you would state as
strongly as you can that l am
unequivocally an advocate of rate
legislation. l not only advocate
giving to the Interstate. Com
merce Commission the rate.mak.
ing power, but also the power to
see that fair and reasonable
raiiroad service lie given the people.
fail to see why certain people
and papers persist in decla ring /
am opposed to regulation of rail-
way charges by the government.
After my repeated declarations on
this subJect, no one but my enemy
would continue to circulate such a
statement"
TWAS with these emphatic words
that Senator Martin defined anew
his position on the all absorbing
topic of governmental regulation
ot transportation rates. Few men
IN public life use the press so rare
y for the purpose of getting state
nents before the people, but the
senator was nettled by repeated
publications to the effect that he
would cprose bill for the regula-
lon OF railway charges. He re
elved a newspaper last week
which asserted that he would Cd.
'ose such a measure.
Senator Martin gave OUT an in
erview last spring in which he
nequivOcally declared his advo- {
acy of such legislation, and dur
lg the recent primary campaign ,
! Virginia he repeatedly declared 6
! favor of law that would lodge /
ne rate-making power in the
ands of commission.

FUNDS FOR THE JACKSON
HOSPITAL

A meeting of the executive CON-
mittee of Stonewall jackson Me-
mortal Association of Richmond
was held in that city on Saturday,
December 9th, to take steps to close
up the affairs of the association.
This association was formed sever
al years ago for the purpose of ac-
curing the house at Guinea Sta
ton, Va, in which Stonewall
jackson died, and maintaining it
as a memorial of General Jackson.
Failing to secure the requisite a.
mount of money to purchase the
property, the committee decided
to disband the association and APP
propriate the funds on hand to the
Jackson Memorial Hospital Asso- |
citation of Lexington. Following is |
the resolution adopted:
Therefore, 1t is unanimously re-
solved that in view of the fact
that the jackson Memorial Hospi-
tai, of Lexington, Va, is a memo
rial identified with the life of Gen
eral Stonewall jackson, and cal
culated to be useful to his surviv.
ing comrades, and moreover, has
behind it, and at hand to lock |
after 1T, tie ever faithful Confed-
crate womec of Lexington and
Rcckbridge, that the funds now 10
hand be turned over by The :
treasurer of this association to the /,
treasurer of the Jackson Memorial tt
Hospital, at Lexington, Va.

Gazette Co'veSboHdence
Dec. 12th.-The store of Mr., J. H
Overton at Greenlee was broken into
one night recently and some articles OF
jewelry, notions and shoes stolen. Several
pairs OF shoes were found the following
morning on the railroad just above the
store. Entrance to the store was
made through the side light to the
door. There is no clue to the thief.
The kilns Of the Natural Bridge
Lime Company at this place are practi-
cally closed on account of the shutdown
of the Covington Paper Mills for Ie.
pairs.
The management of the kilns here
expect soon TO test the use Of coal as
fuel instead of wood, to see if it is not
cheaper.
The poles for the phone line between
Gilmore's Mill and Natural Bridge
station, under construction by Capt.
w. II. Chiles of Gilmore's Mil. have
nearly all been placed in position and
the line is expected soon to be In opera

RUssIA,s DOOM SIGHT

The Russian revolution has be-
come anarchism in Its worst form
Riot and bloodshed are seen on
every hand, and the torch is doing
the work that other weapons can
not reach. The fight between the
classes is heightened by the strong
racial hatred, as is evidenced by
the general slaughter of the Jews.
Great discomfort prevails among
the common people. Concession
after concession has been made to
them, but with every newly. grant
ed right the people seem to want
yet greater concession.
1t is said that universal suffrage,
for which the classes have been
contending strenuously, will not
be granted. In its stead the right
to vote will be restricted to small |
rent payers, merchants and the
educated classes. This will not
satisfy the people. They want
universal suffrage and will not
accept less. Many of them, most
of them, are not prepared for the
ballot, but they demand the right
to have voice in the government.

Judge L. L. Lewis, the defeated
candidate on the Republican ticket
for Governor of Virginia, has been
re-appointed United States At
torneY for the Eastern District of
Virginia. His candidacy for
gubernatorial honors was never
taken seriously by the leaders of
his party, but in order to make q
show of fight before the rank and
file Of the party, and also to i'm
press the President that "some.
thing was doing" in Virginia
politics, Judge Lewis allowed his
name to be used as a candidate
for the highest honor within the
gift of Yirginisns. Everybody
knew that Judge Lewis would be
taken care of by President Roose
velt, but some thought he would
get better plum than the one he
resigned. The Roanoke World
says: Ellis election from
Washington is more easy of accom-
plishment than in Virginia."
