WOULD YOU HAVE THOUGHT
1T?

There are families i'm Tazewell coun
ty and i'm this town who haven't a
Bible in the house. and never had one.
There are men and women i'm this
county who never saw n street ear or
railroad train.
There are families in this county
without book Of any description in
the house, except, perhaps an almanac.
There are heads of families in thi.
county who never took IA newspaper Of
any description or name.
These statements are absolutely
true, rs the writer knows from obser-
walton. The writer met man i'm this
county not long ago who had never
heard OF the Clinch Valley News or its
editor the former has been running
here for more than go years. and the
latter living here nearly 20 years, and
the same of the other paper and its

Tazewell is a highly cultivated and a
wealthy county. The same is true OF
other counties. Talk about sending
missionaries TO the heather! We have

MR.. BRYAN NOT DEAD

The wave Of Bryan sentiment now
s,eeping over the country must be
very interestin readin' to the
editors of certain newspapers in this
country, who announced enthusiast
cally few years, that Bryan was dead
politically, and would be heard OF no
more. Recent events in this country
have brought to light an almost I'M
iversal sentiment for the Great Com.
moner for the Presidency two years
hence. And this is no new sentiment
generated by 'recent events" but only
the expression OF positive convictions
that have existed all the time. but
were dormant. Recent events have
have strongly indicated him in posi-
tons held and doctrines advocated
since his first appearance before the
people ten years ago.

MR.. LINDSAY ON THE REPUB-
I.ICAN PARTY.

Mr.. Lindsay is out in another article
scoring the Slemps and the pie
brigade, as he calls them. 1t is no
fight of ours, but when he takes up
the cudgel against corruption in poll
tics. We join hands with him in his
fight, and wish him the greatest
success, for it is the same fight and
objection We have urged To that party
so often in these columns and asked
law abiding people TO join hands and
wipe out this growing evil, which is
dragging the body polite into degreda-
ton and ruin.
Here is an extract from Mr. Lind
says last letter which we hope all
will read and ponder:
Harmonious" but keep the wings
Of opposition" clipped as they said of
myself as l had grown too popular and
must be defeated. | am against the
policy that destroys one Republican TO

fraud and infamy that dishOnors our
manhood by making them dependent
on graft and a corruption fund. i am
against a system that encourages "A
violation of the Virginia pure election
law of March "a. 1903: that provides.
that no person shall eXpend. pay.

non grata when il comes to asking
honor from the public. The only ques-
ton Is: lean he OF his friends pay the
price? Can the Doodle be forthcoming =?
Mr.. Lindsay has always been n Re
publican. but he sees where the cor
rupt practice in violating the laws is
leading 10, and bravely calls IA halt.
Will his party, which has So long
clamored for pure politics take the
heed, OF will they wait until brought
before a legal tribunal and there meet
the exposure that such parties who
violate the law should meet?
The Barksdale law, if it means any
thing, means that no money shall be
expended TO influence votes, and saws
what the expenses shall be. The pay
ment Of poll taxes is a violation. in

for the political party that pays them
Is this action for influence or for pure

Ing them know it is a violation be.
cause they try to evade the law by
tlking promlsory note.
We say TO Mr.. Lindsay, 60 on with
your good work. You have been on the
inside and know what is going on
You will be defeated at Marion, but YOU
have started such a flame i'm this
article for pure elections i'm Vour own
party, that sooner or later will eradi
cate every evil that now exists from
lee to Craig.
The day is at hand when corruption
