Ashamed Of the President.

The Baltimore American and the
Washington Star. both Republican
journals, have become severe
critics of the President. The Star
has repeatedly charged him with
bad faith and bad manners, limiting
even at corrupt practices. in the

BrutTey, of Luray, Sergeant Rica-
more met the $50 traiu last We'd
nesday morning and placed under
temporary restraint Miss Bessie
Brutfey, stcp-daughter of the man
who sent the telegram.
Miss Brutrey was held until the
evening train arrived, when she
was turned over to her Step-father.
While awaiting the arrival of the
southbound train that night, Bruf-
fey was waited on by a number of
young men whose sympathies we're
with the step-daughtcr, and he was
bound and muilied, with the proba-
intention (on the part of the aptors)
of taking him out in the woods
somewhere and losing" him. but
the outcry which he raised during
the struggle was sufficient 10 enlist
the attention of Councilman and
Mrs. II. w. Baker, who sent for
the police.
Brutfey was very badly scared,
and insisted that our doughty Town
Sergeant should remain with him
until the train arrived and he could
safely make his exit from the con-
fines of our town.

Improvements at Depot

The Norfolk & Western is i'm
proving the condition of the track
and station here, and is placing a
new platform on the side next to
the track.
While the improvement comes
in time of need, the thing which
should have been given the town
is new depot.
The miserable little h0vel which
the company maintains here under
the name of a depot is not worth
the dignity of that name, especi-
ally when we consider the fact that
the Company's receipts here each
year are anywhere from $4,000

Captain Cullen Indicted.

Mr.. ID. III. Snyder returned last
week from Harrisonburg, where
he served on the grand jury of the
United States District Court.
One of the most important in
dictments returned by that jury
was the presentment made against
Capt. Orlan Clyde Cullen, inventor
of the ball-bearing rife.
Cullen, who has been charged
through the newspapers with being
guilty of a wide range of illegal
acts. Is now indicted for securing
goods under falce pretenses. He
is charged in the first count with
securing a 5O-pound tub Of butter
from Lloyd l. Seaman, of New
York; the second with securing six
cases of Strength Fude" from the
Strength Food Company, of New
York; and the third with getting
two dozen Beer-stein lamps from
A. J. Hall Company, of Connecti-
cut.
The indictment, which embraces
eight typewriter pages, charges
that Cullen secured the above arti-
cles by representing himself to be
a man of prominence and means;
the head of a corporation with
S5O0,0O0 capital, organized for the
manufacture of the Cullen ball
bearing rifle. The letters to the
firms named in the indictments are
in practically the same wording
and were written from Waterlick.

The Niger in the WOOdpile

We have been very much anus
ed at the newspaper reports of the
great strength Of Mr.. Bryan, and
the further positive statements
from certain sources that Mr..
Bryan would undoubtedly be the
Democratic nominee for President
in 1908, and that he would sweep
the country.
One of the most laughable pub
lications along that line was the re-
cent editorial by "Marse Henry"
Watterson, Of the Louisville COu-
rier-Journal, who assisted greatly
in the former defeat of Mr.. Bryan.
As we say, these things have
amused Us, for, while we believe
Mr.. Bryan is as great as he ever
was, and have the greatest venera-
ton for him as a man and a politi-
clan, we think there IS about as
much chance of his being elected
President as there Is of "Marse
Henry" foregoing the joys and
pleasures of the mint-julep and
joining the white-ribboners.
The real simon-pure reason for
all of this Bryan hullabaloo appears
in cold print in the leading edito-
rial of the Washington Post yester-
day. As the first editor in the
State TO take an active interest in
the ideas and candidacy of Hon.
William r. Hearst, of New York,
we can, readily understand the
matter now.
Read this from the Post:
1t is not at all difficult to trace
the source of this sudden and almost
deafening uproar over Mr.. Bryan.
We do not say that it is insincere
so far As concerns the multitudes
who are making the noise. On the
contrary, our fixed opinion is that
Mr.. Bryan Is stronger with the
Democratic masses throughout the
country than he was eight wears
ago. What we allude to IS the
source. the inspiration of this tenn
pestuous hullabaloo, and there we
are at no loss whatever. The hon
est millions now shouting in ecstasy
for their twice defeated but still
beloved and trusted captain will
perhaps not believe US when we
say that they are merely playing
chorus TO 4 keynote sounded by
certain gentlemen in the East who
have no use for Mr.. Bryan save As
a club wherewith to knock out the
prospects and ambitions of Mr..
VIM. r. Hearst. Nevertheless. we
are telling the simple truth: stating
fact which in this neighborhood
Is pathetically notorious. The pro-
gramme is to beat Hearst with
Bryan. and then, should the latter
actually get the nomination in 1905.
to help some one, any one, to beat
Bryan at the polls.
