GENERAL JAMES A. WALKER.

AT one time General James A. Walker
was most highly esteemed by the DEM
ocrats of Virginia, and of the Ninth
District particularly. He was honored
as the last commander of the immortal
"Stonewall Brigade" and as the hero
of the "bloody angle" at Spootsylvania
C. H. But as soon as he had become a
Republican, from honest conviction, the
Democrats villified and DETAINED him;
assaulted his moral and personal charac-
ter, aided and supported the corrupt
gang of ballot thieves who twice stole
from him the seat in Congress to which
he was fairly elected; and gloated over
the infamous effort to assassinate him
at Bristol.
The same gang that managed the
Democratic party then is managing it
now in the Ninth District. They are
the fellows who are appealing to Repub-
licans to vote for their candidate be-
cause he and they are the representa-
tives of pure politics and morality.

can be expected by Republicans from
the Roanoke Times, the Lynchburg
News and the other partisan sheets
that condone or defend the many
immoral practices of the, Virginia
Democracy. They villifed and SANDER
ed General Walker? they villified and
slandered Roosevelt and Slemp two
years ago, they villified and slandered
Judge Lewis last year and they are
now merely repeating their former
unrighteous acts.
II, there should ever be any moral is
sue in the politics of the Ninth District,
it is earnestly to be hoped that neither
Republicans nor honest Democrats will
look for guidance to those journalistic
sources that have made themselves no
torious and popular by slandering Re-
publican candidates.

Tazewell Republican. [volume] (Tazewell, Va.) 1892-1919, 1906-10-04

The Republicans of the Ninth District
well remember that the hypocritical
Democrats have personally assailed
every Republican who has been elected
to Congress from this district. They
treated Hon. Henry Bowen that way;
they told all manner of lies on General
James A. Walker;!and they are now
using the same methods on Colonel
Slemp. 1t is surprising that party
with such black record as attaches
to the Democracy of the Ninth Dis
trict will have the holiness to say
anything about the personal and moral
life of any Republican. But brass and
dishonesty have long been the chief
weapons of the Ninth District Democ-
racy and they seem to have no inclina-
ton to change their weapons or their
managers.
Tazewell Republican. [volume] (Tazewell, Va.) 1892-1919, 1906-10-04
THEY HAVE DEPARTED.

The Richmond Times-Dispatch says:
''The glory and strength of the Demo
cratic party lie in the perennial appeal
of its principles to the hearts of men. ="
But the trouble is that this glory and
strength have departed. How long has
it been since the Times-Dispatch declar-
ed that the Democratic party was a
disorganized mass of humanity, repre-
senting all the isms known in the
American field of politics :?
If the Democratic party, as a Nation
al organization, has any strength now,
it is not due to its advocacy of pure
principles that appeal to the hearts of
men, but to it's unworthy appeals to the
prejudices and passions of men. Mr..
Bryan in his speech at Chicago on the
4th of September said:
"The honesty of a party's purpose
is shown not merely by its platform or
the speech of its candidates but by the
character of the men who are entrusted
with its management. )"
If this be true, and we believe the
Nebraskan spoke a truth when he
uttered the words, then, are not the
honesty and strength of a party's prin-
ciples as truly to be measured by the
character of the men who formulate,
promulgate and win men to the prin-
ciples?
We would like for the Times-Dispatch
to tell US what men, what leaders are
now shaping and proclaiming the prin-
ciples of the Democratic party. Are
not the two Willies, William Jennings
Bryan and William Randolph Hearst,
the men who are doing this?
According to the declarations of the
Times-Dispatch, Messrs. Bryan and
Hearst are nothing more than danger
Gus political agitators who are arousing
the passions and prejudices of the popu-
lace against organized and orderly gov
eminent. So, then, if Mr.. Bryan is the
recognized formulation of the principles
of the National Democracy, those prin-
ciples are not of such character as to
appeal to the better part of men, the
heart, but do appeal to the baser part,
their prejudices and passions.
This applies with more force to the
Virginia Democracy even than it does
to the National Democracy. The DEM
ocratic party in this State has held
power for the past twenty-five years by
constant appeals to the prejudices of
the white voters; and the Democratic
press has contributed its full share to
this narrow policy.
Tazewell Republican. [volume] (Tazewell, Va.) 1892-1919, 1906-10-04

The Clinch Valley News is now
preaching each week sermon on mo-
rality, directing its teachings to the
Republicans of Tazewell county in an
