bied, and this was another matter In
which the corporations took no part.
Perhaps the strongest and most per-
sistent lobby. which like the poor. was
always with the Legislature, was that
seeking an extension of the charter rights
OF the South and Western Railroad Com
rany, out in the coal fields OF Southwest
Virginia. They finally got all they asked
and there is no one TO say their cause
WAS not just.
The men who composed the .1'hird
House" this session were among the
abiest lawyers in the State. and they
conducted their battles at all times on
a high and honorable plane.
There WAS good deal of lobbying for

Many resolutions were offered on this
subject. one having been vigorous in its
language. This went so far as to refer

known as "ldbbysts'' among the class

stricken from the resolution. but the

A Danyille Tragedy.
Edward Manning. Found Dead and
Arthur Rogers and Joseph Labree
under Arrest Many CircumStan-
ceS Point to Murder.

Rum was the cause of another tragedy
when the dead body of Edward Man
ming was found on Joseph Labree's farm
last Thursday morning. and the trial at
the December term of the Caledonia Co.
court will determine whether or not
Labree and Arthur Rogers were impli-
Gated in the deed. Both the latter are
silent as to the circumstances that led up
to the death of Manning, but from what
follows it is not difficult to believe that
they know more about it than they have
yet divulged.
The public first heard of the death of
Manning when Joseph Labree reported
to the selectmen that he had found on
Thursday morning his body in the pas
ture. Labree lives alone in a house
about two miles from Danville Green on
the road that leads from the Cole place,
the latter being on the main road to
West Danville. Manning came around
Saturday and sometime the next day
Rogers appeared. The latter had re-
Gently had scrap with another party
and had black eye when he arrived at
Labree's. They sent off for some liquor
and Monday night received two quarts
of alcohol and bottle of gin. Through
out the night they proceeded to dispose
of this, with the natural result that by
Tuesday morning they were well intox-
icated. About the time that the liquor
arrived two young men appeared to
spend the night, Arthur LaBreck and
"Mel" Labree, son of Joseph Labree.
Their testimony at the inquest brought
out the fact that early Tuesday morning
Rogers and Manning had scrap and
that Labree, senior, had advised Rogers
to leave the place as there might be
trouble. Rogers claimed that Manning
left the place Tuesday afternoon and
Labree says he himself Went to Walden
the same day and did not return until
Thursday morning. Both say they never
saw Manning alive again.
The body of Manning was found face
dOWnWarQS, Cne nedu covered Wltn d
hat that was not his own, and by his
side pipeful of dry tobacco and an unlit
match The face was bloody and the
mans clothes were dry. The night be-
fore it rained quite hard, which would
seemingly dispose of the story that the
body lay outdoors over night. The
selectmen took the body to the town
hall and sent word to St, Johnsbury that
they wanted the officers. Deputy
Sheriff Worthen drove at once to Dan
vile taking with him J. Rolf Searles,
who represented the state in the absence

Cleveland, will marry the Countess
De Castellane as soon as she gets di-
vorce from Count Boni.
