successful and pleasant session. The

equinoxtial storm blew over and We'd
nesday and Thursday were clear and
cool with just enough rain to lay the
dust and render everything pleasant
and agreeable.
The attendance. not so large on the
first day increased, and the last two
days the grounds were caowded.
There Were a number Of side attrac.
tions in the way of shows etc, which
materially increased the attendance
and added to the interest OF the occa-

Accommodations were ample although
only one hotel was available. MANY
homes i'm the town were thrown open.
and visitors had little or no trouble I'm
finding entertainments.
Excursion trains from both direc-

Yesterday, the Fair, was the best.
The crowd was very large and the day

Letter to
FELIX LAKE.
Tazewell Va


Dear Sir: If you could get the ex-
elusive sale of a sweeter sugar for five
miles round-12lb as sweet as pound
OF usual sugar, and cost no more
you'd jump at it, wouldn't you?
There wouldn't be 100 Id of any
other sugar sold in a year in your
town; you'd gobble the trade: and it
wouldn't hurt your whole business.
Devoe is like that among paints; it
is twice as sweet as some; it is sweeter
than any; not one exception; one gall
lon Is twon or one-and-a-half or one
and-three- quarters.
Better than that; paint has to be
painted; that costs 50 to 81 a. gallon.
A gallon saved is 80 to 81 saved in
labor, besides the paint.
Even that isn't ALL A gallon Devoe
put-on wears as long as two gallons
put-on at cost of 81 to S4 a gallon
and two gallons more put-on at 50 to
81 a gallon. Count all that. The paint
thai. wears double costs less by 3 gal
Ions of paint and 8 gallons of painting;
that's about S15 gallon foi those
superfiuous gallons.
That's as good as a doubIe-sweet
sugar, isn't il?

There Is no doubt in the minds OF

relief can be secured from the osteo-
pathic treatment than any other.

won't yield to any treatment, but in

years standing yielding to three

THE SHIP SUBSIDY.

Whatever one may think OF the
principle involved in the substituting
Of our merchant marine, even the
casual reader must admit that Sec
rotary OF State Elihu Root has enun-
ciated the most powerful argument
yet advanced in favor of the Idea 10
his speech at Kansas City. Mr.. Root
comes fresh from an Investigation of
affairs in South America, fllej with
enthusiasm for the prospects of the
development OF that continent, and
like all patriotic Americans, ne was
chagrined to see only one star span
gled banner floating from the mast
head of a ship in South American
port. Then occurred to him the
question why, and he finds the solu-
ton In the ship subsidy bill. The ne
e{}ity for a rapid building UP of
oiif merchant marine seems to have
impressed itself most forcefully on
the mind of the statesman in con-
nection with the South American
trade, because that continent Is in
the process OF development. afford
ing unusual opportunities for pio-
neer endeavor and the investment of
capital. On a merchant marine SER
vice and regular mails between New
York and the principal ports. Mr..
Root seems to rest all hope of per-
manent American predominance in
South American affairs. ,t.
Mr.. Root accounts for the decay
of the United States merchant ma
rine by the higher wages paid Amer
lean workmen, and seamen, thereby
increasing the cost OF constructing
and maintaining the ships and SER
vice, conditions he thinks no one
would wish to change; and the fact
that European nations pay in subsi-
dies about s2S .OO0,O 900 annually. en-
abling them TO underbid American
owners for American freight.
He presents as the remedy the
senate bill, suhsidizing the mer-
chant marine and creating of II ma
val reserve. He justifies II by point
ing to the subsidy for the Pacific
railroad lines, and the expenditure OF
money in developing internal water
ways.

THIS is DIR FIELD.

South America, heretofore a pro-
Queer Of raw material for American
+, comic operas and romantic novels,
and an open market for the exploita-
ton of our worst national traits, has
been discovered by Elihu Root.
Unquestionably this country has
been careless about its foreign trade
and only our national commercial
genius has enabled our merchants to
enter the foreign field and success
fully compete with other countries
for the worlds commerce. We have
been a home people, interested only
In our home affairs Our congress has
passed laws, affecting our relations
with foreign nations, and only heard
the local side of II. Occasionally we
have developed statesmen, cabinet
officers for most part, who have evinc-
ed a wider vision, but they have been
"sat down upon" by a spirit of in
tolerance, which actually dominated
us a dozen years ago, but which now
seems to us preposterous. Perhaps,
our habit of changing administra-
tions every few years mas fostered
this intense local feeling. Then, too,
while we we're building up a protec-
tive wall TO foster our industries 6A r
bent of mind was Influenced by our
purpose.
We have established the principle
of protection. and we have builded
great industrially, and our eyes are
turning in search of a market place.
Had Theodore Roosevelt and his ad-
vissrs accomplished no other worthy
object. the reform inaugurated in
our consular service, the statesman
like handling of difficult foreign
questions, and the close study the
administration has made of our re-
lations with our dependencies and
sister republics, would mark an ep-
och. To John Hay belongs the honor
of the beginning. Elihu Root Is the
chief factor in carrying on the work,
and his consummate tact, skill in
reasoning and patriotic devotion, are
stamping him one of Americas
greatest men.
His visit 70 the Latin-American
republics has cleared the clouds Of
misunderstanding as to our attitude
cherished in South American capitals
under European tutorage. He comes
home ladened with a message from
that continent. written in words That

Rate viii BE Enforced In Ken
lucky By Commission.
Louisville Evening Post Says Order
I VIII BE Promulgated in Three
Months.
OHIO FIXED RATE BY A LAW
The Louisville Post says;

The Louisville Post says;
A PC a-mile-passenger rate
over all railroads in Kentucky will be
ordered by the Kentucky state rail-
road commission within the next
three months, and probably earlier.
While it is possible that some of
the railroads will resist the order in
the courts, 1t is certain that the or
der will be issued, and it is Believed
by the legal advisers of the railroad
commission that 1t will be made eff
fective shortly after the order is Is
sued.
All the members of the state rail-
road commission are now in Louis
villsS bntting the finishing touches
on a movement inaugurated some
months ago. to lower the prevailing
freight rates in this state. n VS.
1t will be remembered that the
railroad commission ordered that the
freight rates prevailing on the main
line Of the l.. & ~. running to Bow
ling Green and Nashville, be taken
as a basis. and that these rates be
cut % per cent. All roads in the
state we're then forbidden to make
any charge for freight higher than
25 per cent. less than the rate pre-
vaiiing on the main ste moi the l..
& n.
This order has not been put into
effect, for the railroads have taken
the matter to the United States
courts on the plea that the order
amounts to confiscation of proper
ty. The railroad commission is now
in session in Louisville to push the
case to a speedy decision and the
members believe that their order
will be declared legal and, Just.
1t is being shown in the pleadings
that freight rates from certain points
in Kentucky to Cincinnati are much
lower than to Louisville.
No matter how the freight case, Il
disposed Of the railroad commission
will Immediately after 1t is conclud-
ed take up the question OF passenger
rates, and it is certain that a 2-cent-
annie rate In place OF the present g.
Icent-a-mile rate will be ordered. This
order, will be promulgated the mo-
ment the freight rate question is de-
cided. .-,,f,
Its effect will be TO make travelling
on railroads in Kentucky much chea-
per, and while II will reduce the
charge for each passenger II is be-
lieved that It will not injure the
, railroads as it Will make more trav-
cling possible.
The order comes as result OF a
movement all over the country for a
2-cent-a-mile passenger rate. The
Pennsylvania road has already or
ldered a 2-cent-a-mile rate on all its
lines east of Pittsburg. The state OF
Ohio has passed a law requiring a
2-cent-a-mile rate.
Kentucky will be the first state
where the state railroad commission
has ordered a 2-cent rate. and an
interesting legal battle Will proba-
bly, follow.
The members of the Kentucky
commission are C. c. McChord, Nc
| ID. Ferguson and A. T. Siler.
While the order for the 2-cent
rate has not yet been drawn, and
may not be promulgated for some
weeks it is positively known that II
has been decided upon and will be
