Rev. Mr.. Carson, after pleasant
stay of a week here with his son,
Prof. w. w. Carson, left for other
parts of the state looking up his old
friends and relatives whom he has
not seen for years. He has relatives
alsO in Tennessee, and he will call on
them before returning TO his home at
Fulton, Mo. Mr.. Carson is remember
eel by the older residents as having
had charge of churches i'm this coun-
" and in Russell, and his visit was
greatly enjoyed by his old parishion-
ers.
Mr.. Thomas w. Cecil, of Indian
apOlis, Ind, has been in the county
for several weeks, visiting his numer-
Gus friends here and attending 10
some business matters in connection
with large boundry of timber and
coal land, which he owns in Buch-
anan county. Mr.. Cecil recently had
the misfortune TO break his right
arm, and was confined TO his bed for
several months. As soon as his arm
healed so that he could get about, he
broke 1t again and was laid up for
some time. Mr.. Cecil will be in the
city for several days.
Swords Creek was visited by a
disasterous fire last Saturday. The
Odd Fellows Hall and store build
ing were destroyed, entailing a prob
able loss of s., 600, partially covered
by insurance. The depot and West.
ern Union Office were endangered, but
were not damaged. The origin of the
| fire Is not known.
All the crops are good except corn,
which is away behind what il usual

THE CORPORATION COMMITS
SION AND MR.. STUART.

As time wears on the importance
and responsibility of the Corporation
Commission work becomes more
and more apparent. Certainly true
ii is, that no officials of the state
hold more responsible position.
Hon. Henry Stuart, President of the
Commission, is prominently spoken
of for Governor of the state TO succeed
Mr.. Swanson. Beyond all question
Mr.. Stuart should be kept in his
present position, if possible. He can
do the state vastly more good in the
Commission than he could rs Cover
nor of the state. For one more
term at least, he should retain his
present position if such thing is
possible. He can be Governor after
he has put things in better shape,
and we all would like to see him
Governor, and we will, if he lives,
but just now he should be retained
in the great office which he holds.

honest debts, and he gets good ages,
and during orange packing season
lots of them get $3.50 day. Ten
hours he tolls down here and seems
happy and content, and is treated
alright by his white brother, when
he walks the chalk, and conducts
himself rs he should. The Niggers
are all polite. You never meet or see
a sassy impudent one, for he isn't
tolerated for moment. Some
cracker soon learns him how TO
be polite when white folks are round.
The women here are not one bitafraid
of them. There has never been an
assault, or an insult offered a white
woman by IA Niger in this county,
in fact there's practically but few
state. We have law that would
work for good i'm Virginia, or any
state, requiring any person who car
ries a repeating rifle or shot gun TO
give bond. The bond accepted by the
county Commissioners with two good
men on ii, is all 1t costs. It's pur-
pose was To keep fire arms out of the
nigroes hands and il did all it was
intended for. No MICRO can get a
bond accepted. But few ever try, and
its 500 fine and months in Jail for
IA pistol toter. But few niggers ever
have one or razor, for its Is months
on the chain gang on a turpentine
farm, where they put the lash TO him
and if Niger does do any
meanness he never gets away and
the sheriff and his deputies don't fail
10 pull them. No running up and
shaking hands with niggers here AT
election time, (like they do in Taze-
well county,. There's no "darkies'
or "colOred folks here.
Pretty warm down here and a few
"skeeters' mixed with il, but near
ly always a good breeze off theAtlan-
tic, which keeps one alive, and in
fact we suffer but little from heat.
Yours truly,
Chas. II. Tarter.

RAISING" AND REARING >

There is, said good man in
our hearing recently, "a vast differ
ence between raising children and
rearing children. We raise pigs,
calves and colts, but we should rear
children. And he was right. In too
manycases childrenare treated as little
animals-fed and cared for, and left
to themselves beyond this. TO rear"
children requires more than food,
clothes and shelter, if they are to
grow up into useful men and wo'
men. somsthing more Is necessary

Badly Mixed Up.

Abraham Brown, OF Winterton, N.
4 D., had very remarkable experience;
he says: Doctors got badly mixed up
over me; one said heart disease; two
called 1t kidney trouble; the fourth
blood poison, and the fifth stomach
and liver trouble; but none Of them
helped me; SO my wife advised trying
Electric Bitters, which are restoring
me to perfect health. One bottle did
me more good than all the five doctors
prescribed" Guaranteed to cure blood
poison, weakness and all stomcch,

TAZEWELL'S FUTURE

The future development and
growth OF this town and country is.
or ought To be. matter special con-
ceru To every citizen, particularly TO
those who are permanently situated,
and who expect 10, and all probabili-
" will, spend the remainder of
their lives here. and turn all over To
their children when they take their
final leave.
As to the future:
The establishing of factories and
industries here for the manufacture
of goods of any kind, seems TO be un-
likely. The people OF this communi-
~ have had the matter brought to
their attention many Il time, and in
many ways given the opportunity TO
invest their money i'm various enter
prise>, but are not inclined To do 80.
The probability is they will not
change their minds. Two things can
be done and should bc done. which.
To limited extent, is being done now.
One is, the improvement and further
development of the stock of the coun-
". Tazcwell county can Ice easily
made one of the finest stock markets
in The country. Mr.. r.. NJ. Lawson
suggested shi> i'm recent article in
This paper. The county has every
facility for breeding and growing
fine, distinct types of cattle and
horses. No county or community
any where can raise cattle aS cheap
rs can Tazewell county. Every body
knows this.
Mr. Bowman, the we'll known
stockman, according to the papesr.
recently paid over sd, 900 for two
Jersey stock calves. Now, Mr. Bow
man would have come To Tazewell
for these calves if he could have got
ten them here, and they could have
been raised here just rs well and rs
cheaply as elsewhere.
Burke's Garden farmers sometimes
get, il is said, rs much as $3.50 for Il
short horn calf. They could get $500
just rs easily. Right along this line
lies the salvation of Tazewell. If
our rich stockmen, having hun
dreds and thousands of acres of the
finest blueSgraSS in the world would
turn their attention To breeding the
finest and highest strains of cattle
and hOrSeS-Strains that would stand
al the top in any show market in
the country the future of the county
would be assured.
AS 10 the town:
Some body says, the town is
hnIshed-we are at the top and
we are, unless the people of the town
see their opportunity. 1t lies in max
ing arrangements TO accommodate
summer visitors. In all respects TaZe-
well has equal facilities with WVthe-
Vile, and in several important re-
spects surpasses this popular resort,
rs an ideal home for the summer Wis
ltors. But, there are no facilities
here. y nice, rOomy hotel well locat-
ed, and little judicious advertis-
ing, and the town would be filled
every summer with visitorsApeopIe
VINO have money and who spend it
freely.
This suggestion has been made and
urged many Il time through this pa
per heretofore. 1t is made again
with the absolute assurance of its
reasonableness and plausibility. Taze-
well should wake up to the truth,
and do something to put little life
into things, and what else can we do?
What else are we\ so well prepared
10 do than here suggested?
