The TaZewell National Bank. and
the First National Bank, Pocahontas
have statements i'm this issue of the
News second page. These banks are
growing all the time.
The News was little i'm error last
issue in stating that a partnership had
been formed by Mcssrs Grcever x
Gillespie and Bell q Litz for the prac-
tice of law in Welch, Buchanan and
Tazewell. The partnership practice
has reference only to Buchanan com-
ty, and not to either Tazewel or
Welch.
The announcement is made that b.
j. Wysor. the well known Swords
Creek merchant, is opening a whole
sale Grocery store at Northfork, w,
Va. If the NoIthfork people could
dig down a few of the big hills around
about, the little city would come TO
the front rapidly. Her citizens say she
is coming anyway.

patrons OF rural routes are compelled
to purchase boxes from one of the 200
listed manufacturers, who have put on
the market 800 different styles OF
boxes, approved by the department cost

rural routes win be permitted to con-
struct their own boxes, provided that in
doing so they conform to the require
ments OF the department as to size,
durability, safety and protection from
the inclemencies OF the weather. In
order to maintain the government pro-

the patrons must secure the approval Of

SoCKLESS SWIMMERS.

Alas! poor woman! She cannot es-
cape the demands of fashion even at
the bathing beaches. No matter to what
least common multiple she has reduced
her bathing suit, she is still open to the
cynosure and structures of the prudes in
chairs and on the observation stands.
As she finds her way to the surf among
the mass of tanned arms and legs that
bestrew the beach and appertain to her
brothers, her cousins and their male as
sociates, the summer girl has long been
impressed with the superior wisdom of
the male variety Of bather in giving his
legs the same freedom as his arms. He
wears no long stockings soaked full Of the
sea, to impede his swimming and hang
as dead weight from his body; there
fore, why should she? So, a few days
ago, the summer girl at Ocean Park, in
a moment of high resolve and low hose
appeared on the sands in socks The
shock nearly killed sister, but the inno-
walton is likely to remain, it is SAID
until the sister recovers and then,-well.
then the summer girl is expected to
shed even the socks, and sister will de-
part early to the mountains, with q
chaperone and her smelling salts.

EFFECTS ARE APPARENT.

Having put her hand to the plough m
the matter Of thorough inspection OF ex-
port foods, Chicago evidently does not
mean to turn back. A neS- ordinance has
been passed there and the 5000 restaur-
ants Of the city have been placed under
strict supervision, as to the quality OF
food supplied to guests, the manner of
its preparation, the personal tidiness OF
the walters, in dress and habits, the
proper ventilation of kitchens, and other
details necessary to proper sanitation.
Certainly the sight Of an untidy waiter
and the mingled odor OF all sorts CT
yiands in preparation too often waftei
from the kitchen are not appetizing'
The estaurateurs are obliged to take
out licenses, revocable for cause. The
fees from these licenses, estimated to
amount to 100000 year, will be ap-
piled to the payment of the inspection
This ought to insure proper and cleanly
service, since the revocation of license
will put the offenders out Of business.

Almost daily do we hear or read OF
cases of connnbial infelicity and SO
serious has the divorce menace become,
that sometimes we are led to wonder
why some man of wisdom has not pro-
mulgated law, whereby people who
contemplate committing matrimony
shall stop and seriously consider what
they are about. Too frequently they
rush into the yoke in haste, only to re-
pent having done so when it is too late
to remedy the trouble without working
a great hard ship upon innocent per-
sons. .......

BOOZE, NON EST

Nebraska Democrats have just suffered
a great disappointment, according to the
Lincoln estate Journal" Forty years
ago, according to the story which has a
revival every few years, a steamboat
loaded with whisky was sunk in the Mis-
souri, river, near the Nebraska shore.
Recently, by change in the current,
the skeleton was revealed, near Yank-
ton. Great excitement prevailed in
Omaha, says the Estate Journal" an ex-
pedition was organized to rescue the well
mellowed Booze" and strenuous efforts
were made to change the meeting of the
democratic convention from Lincoln to
Yankton. Right at this juncture in steps
the "oldest settler" and says the boat
was loaded with flour, not whisky, and
most of it was saved at the time. The
convention will now probably be held in
Lincoln.

Let us all bear this fact in mind: All
subsidies, petty or great. are paid out
of the revenue collected by taxation
from the pockets of the people. The idea
that this government is rich is a false
idea. 1t has nothing but what it takes
from the poor mans pocket. The rich
pay federal taxes only in the proportion
of the number of the rich to the num-
Der of the poor and that is an insight
cant proportion; and even that proper
tion is offset by the special protection"
or advantage, which the tariff gives
the rich over the poor.

An exchange says: "The kickers on
the farm are not as hard to get along
with as the kickers in the towns. On
the farm there is the kicking COW and
our long-eared friend, the mule while
in the town there is the old moss-back,
who wants all the privileges Of munich
pal living without paying for them and
blocks so far as he can, every municipal
improvement. The COW may be sold for
beef and the mule traded for shot
gun, but nothing but funeral will get
rid of the town kicker"

A bill providing uniform method OF
naturalization throughout the country

The seventh section provides that "no
person who disbelieves in or who is op-
posed to organized government" shall be

The law goes into effect ninety days

WARRIOR ON WAR.

What silly asses we are to keep it up"
General Otis has done his part at the
game in the past, but he's fighting now

the hands of men entirely great, as edi.
tor Of the Los Angeles "Times." Simply
changed his methods. But who wants 20
