BY PURCHASE AND CONQUEST.

The suggestion of the New York
Herald to sell our White Elephant to
the Filipinos themselves is novel and
interesting, whatever else may be said
about it. But are the Islands ours to
sell? How did they become so? By
conquest? Or through the twenty mil
lions paid to Spain? Is our proprietor-
ship political or commercial? Can a
free Republic purchase people, and, if
so, what is the condition of the people
purchased except that of slavery?-
Norfolk Virginian-P Pilot.
What about the Louisiana purchase?
That was made by Thomas Jefferson,
the Great High Priest of Democracy,
and is considered by all intelligent
American citizens and patriots the
GROWING glory of his official and politi-
cal life. Within the Louisiana purchase
was situated the proud city of New
Orleans, then considerable community,
with French and Spanish population
that was very hostile to becoming even
citizens much less slaves of the United
States,
What about that magnificent terri
tory we got from Mexico by conquest,
and which is composed of the great
States of California, Nevada, Utah, the
larger part of Colorado and part of
Oklahoma, and the Territories of Ari-
coma and New Mexico? These were
acquired by conquest under Demo-
caatic administration.
What about the purchase of Alaska,
now considered the most valuable pos
session of the United States?
Thomas Jefferson and James K. Polk,
did not think it wrong in morals for a
free Republic to make these purchases
and conquests. 1t is true that Mr..
Jefferson did not think we had the right
under the Constitution to acquire Louis
lana by purchase, hut ne announced
his purpose to the Great Consul Napo-
icon to take that territory by force of
arms if he did not sell it to our Govern
ment. After the purchase was made,
it was ratified by Congress, Democrats
and Federalists alike proclaiming that
Mr.. Jefferson was wrong in his con-
of the Constitution.
We would like for our esteemed
Norfolk contemporary to point out to
US any possession the United States
now holds that has not been acquired
by conquest or purchase. We know of
none, unless it be the Hawiian Islands.

HAY AND CRAZY.

Our esteemed contemporary the Nor
folk Virginian-Pilot has recently given
us pretty keen thrust for venturing
to interpret the meaning of one of its
figurative paragraphs. With this ex-
perience confronting us we cannot for
bear an effort to interpret and enlarge
upon the language of our Norfolk con-
temporary set forth in the columns of
the Virginian-Pilot as follows:
According to the Cleveland Plain
dealer politics in this country are peril
ously near the demnition bowwows. 1t
says both the great parties are getting
lazy in regard to public issues involving
principle. Worse than that. 1t is a
case of hazy on the one side and crazy
on the other"
Will our contemporary again twit US
with: Your quickness of comprehen-
sion, Brother, is equalled by our clear
ness of expression" if we venture to
interpret the above figure of speech
ut is a case of hazy on the one side
and crazy on the other?''
We interpret this to mean that the
Virginian-Pilot thinks that the Repub-
lican party is hazy and the Democratic
party crazy on the issues involving
principle now before the public. We
do no violence to truth, and do not
mean to be discourteous, when we agree
with the Virginian-Pilot that it is a case
of crazy on the Democratic side of poll
tics. Have not the safe and sane
Democrats" repeatedly pronounced
Organism a form of lunacy? And is
not Organism now the dominant princi-
pie of the Democracy?
But to enlarge upon the charge made
by our Norfolk contemporary, that it is
a case Of crazy on the part of the De-
mocracy, we venture to say that it is
also case of hazy. Not only is it a
case of hay as to what is a Demo-
crat?' but it is equally as hay as to
what the modern Democracy stands
for. In 1896 it was for free silver-a
lunacy. In 1900 it was for anti-Imper-
ialism-a myth. In 1904 it was for
nothing And now it is again
for Organism, with that ism an unde-
fined principleor indeterminate quantity
1t looks like Democracy has been and is
still little hazy as well as very crazy.
Granting that we have correctly in
terpreted the language of our Norfolk
contemporary as to its own party, we
must take issue with it as to our party
the Republican party. There is moth
ing hazy in its case. In 1896 it stood
for sound money and protective tariff
and for what was afterwards called
McKinleyism. In this good year il
stands for sound money, a protective
tariff and Rooseveltism. Anything hay
about that?

pesfnes. Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion Of the ear. There il
only one way to cure deafness, and that IL
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an nhsmed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eus,achian Tube.
When this tube is inhamed you have a
rumbllng sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an intamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

VERY MUCH INTERESTED.

Some of the Democrats of the Legis-
lative District composed of the counties
of Tazewell and Buchanan are showing
great interest in whom these two coun-
ties will elect as their representative in
the next House of Delegates. Well,
that is already settled. The represen-
tative will be a Republican, and his
name is Deskins Green. Of course the
Democrats are exhibiting their great
interest in the welfare of the people of
these two counties for the purpose, if
possible, of having some Democrat
elected from the two counties. For
this reason they are showing great con-
Germ about the public roads and the pub
lie schools.
The Democrats have been in absolute
control of all branches of the State
Government for the past twenty-five
years. Now, what have they done::for
giving good roads and good schools to
the counties of Buchanan and Tazewell?
No trouble to answer this question.
Then, let us ask what the Democratic
party has done for the people of Taze-
well and Buchanan in these recent
years? 1t has given them one repre-
captofix-a n, +bo uo,,so 90 nalocotas
though they have, combined, thirty
two thousand white people and three
thousand colored people. 1t has given
to Appomattox county, with less than
SIX thousand white population and
about five thousand negro population,
equal representation to that given
Tazewel and Buchanan, combined. If
Tazewen and Buchanan counties had
been treated as generously as was APP
pomattox and other counties in East
ern Virginia, our two counties would
have three representatives instead of
one in the House of Delegates.
The Democratic party by constitu-
tional enactment has also deprived
nearly all the negro voters in Tazewell
county of the right to vote, and has de-
prived two thousand white men in the
two counties of that right.
A Democratic Legislature has also
taken away from the counties of Buch-
anan and Tazewell the right to elect
their own Commissioners of the Reve-
nue..
That is not all When Buchanan
county elected 10 Hibbitts to the House
of Representatives, didn't Democrat
ic House steal his seat from him and
give it to Democrat that had been de-
feated at the election?
Now, ought not the people of Taze-
well and Buchanan to elect Democrat
to the House and one to the Senate
that they may continue to help confer
such blessings upon them?
Deskins Green and Roland E. Chas,
are opposed to giving the people sucl
blessings as these. When a Democra
comes around and asks you TO vote TO
him for the House or the Senate, jus
remind him of the great things hi
party has been doing for this people
and how he has voted for the men VIII
did these acts.
Did any of the Democratic papers o
candidates who are now so anxious t
have Buchanan and Tazewell repre-
scented by Democrat in the interest o
the roads and the schools raise thei
voices against the legislative appor
tionment and other iniquitous legisla
ton we have above referred to? No
much. 1t was welcomed as a grea
thing for their party, so let the peopl
be damned, was their cry.
