The sheep raisers of Tazewell county
are already selling their lambs for 1907.
They are contracting them at from
So to 81 cents. The gentlemen who are
contracting for the lambs are evidently
convinced that the Democratic doctrine
of free wool is not likely to ever become
popular again, and that sheep husband

the country.

Don't fail to come to Tazewell
next Saturday to hear the Hon.
Geo. Dobson speak.

We reckon Judge Williams will now
realize what a wicked pitfall the poll
tax qualification for voting is. His
party constructed the trap to catch illit-
crate Republicans; but some of the big
Democratic game is now in the pit,
caught in their own trap. They deserve
no sympathy. 1t is just retribution.

From a telegram published in another
column it will be seen that the election
Officials who made false returns at the
Democratic primary in Richmond last
Spring have been acquitted by jury OF
that city. If Democratic judges Of
election are always acquitted after
cheating Democratic candidates, we may
confidently expect that such judges will
be rewarded when they steal from Re-
publicans. That has been the rule
heretofore and it will continue with the
great moral party in Virginia.

We have learned that Ellyson's agents
are going over the country and making
personal appeals to Democrats to make
contributions. One of his agents was at
Tazewell last week.
We also learn that some of the DEM
ocrats are boasting that they will be
able to buy enough votes to elect Bruce
1t looks like this is their hope, for there
is no other reason for raising the large
fund which they are gathering. 3d.
the party of such great professions OF
morality, with their candidate of such
wonderful moral worth and purity OF In
tentions is deliberately preparing to try
to corrupt election officials and debauch
the voters on election day.
Forewarned, let Republicans be fore
armed; and keep Taylor Ellyson from
again carrying the district by the use OF
his endless schemes of fraud. EDITOR.

Republicans get to work. Let's make
this the greatest victory we ever won
in the Ninth District. Instead of per-
mitting Taylor Ellyson to break the
backbone of our party, let us make its
backbone as solid as steel and as endur-
ing as our everlasting hills.

The mean and slanderous assaults
which the Democratic press continued
to make until recently on Colonel Slemp
did that gentleman no harm, but has
damaged Mr.. Bruce. These assaults
have thoroughly aroused the indigna-
ton of the Republicans of the Ninth
District, and they have rallied to the
support of their standard bearer with a
zeal and a resolution that will insure
crushing victory over Democracy on the
9Th of November.

Everybody at work who wants to work
and everybody with plenty of money who
does work. These are the conditions
we are now having everywhere in South

throughout the United States. Yet the
Democrats are asking the. people to
overthrow the policy under which these
conditions have been brought about.

We hear that Judge Samuel w. Will
Jams and his son failed to pay their poll
taxes for 1905, and, consequently, cannot
vote at the coming election. Judge
Williams has frequently declared, as
have other Democratic speakers, that a
man who fails to pay his poll taxes is
unworthy of citizenship. We wonder
how the Judge feels by being placed IN
the list of the unworthy? Last year ne
was a candidate for Attorney General,
and at the Democratic primary Taze-
well Democrats gave him large major
ity over Major VIM. A. Anderson. If
Judge Williams was candidate for
Congress this year and if he were elect
ed he could not serve, because he is dis
franchised. This is striking example
of ones chickens coming home to roost.

HAWKS EAT CHICKENS.
Indignant Citizens Petition for Right
to Stay Birds of Prey.


WASHINGTON, D. c., July A.
In the capital of a country of S0,000,-
craftsmanship, diplomacy and high
politics, its citizens write not and has
ty letters 10 the powers that be, pro-
testing that hawks devour their Pekin
ducks and that rabbits come after their
corn. They argue gravely the consti-
nationality of their right of defense
against the depredations. Constitution
ality is a grave word in Washington,
full of meat and meaning. The fire.
quenters of debates are full of wise
saws and "bromides''
A man named Babcock has written to
the district authorities about the dan
gers of wild life in great city. 'Haksc,'
he declares, come after my chickens,
and have actually killed and devoured,
within two weeks, at least one Pekin
duck, nearly full grown, besides some
chickens l believe rabbits come after
my turnips, crows after my corn, Eng
lish sparrows to drive away my singing
birds. To say that one on his own
land may not shoot such depredators
is simply monstrous tyranny.
Now, 1 like wildness. The many
rambles we have taken together should
sufficiently show you that, but patches
of thicket near the roads ought to be
reduced in area or they become dam
gerous. The tract for example, imme-
diately opposite my house and just
across the Ridge road, has been the
scene of one horrible crime, and turns
out no end Of four footed and feather
ed depredators. Now, am I to be told
that I am to submit to their depreda-
tons or be fined? That is abominable.
ITO take a mild instance. In the
autumn of 1904 sowed rye and clover
on the hill before my house, near the
road, chiefly to improve the looks of
things. Before these seeds could
sprout over came a covey of cartridges
in the early morning again and again,
and ate it up almost clean over one
third of the area, making that place
uglier than ever for the next spring
Before they had eaten all we discovered
what was going on, and cit being in
season) shot several of them on my
front lawn, so getting even.
LAS to hawks, there were three
huge ones over my barnyard on the 22d,
when l stayed at home. What possible
harm could l have done anyone by
shooting up at them? l didn't because
my gun was not at hand
