DOCTORS MIST4KES

Are said often to be buried six feet under
ground. But many times women call ON
their family physicians, suffering, as they
imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from
heart disease, another from liver or kid

tration, another with pain here and there,
and in this way they present alike to
themselves and their easy-going or over
busy doctor, separate diseases, for which
he, assuming them to be such. prescribes
his pills and potiOns. In reality, they are

general line that if has been for the
past two years The President has not
made any further announcement of his
position. Every politician who com e.
into Washington, however, has some
thing to say on the subject. and there

FOR STENOGRAPHERS.

The following have been laid down
as important rules for stenographers
by a teacher in Chicago:
mo masticatiOn of the cracking
chicle during office hours. Gum chew
ing during a slump in the stock market
is to captain of industry like red
flag to bull.
mo adornment of the Marcel ripples
with bows of ribbon. The master of
men, who makes out the salary list,
has no sympathy with the ingenue
pose
mo giggling within earshot of the
employer, or of any of his slaves. 1t
gives an air of gaiety to the solemn
business OF knitting the competitor.
N. b The cue to laugh is when the
boss makes bis famous Joke about the

A LAME EXCUSE.

The Richmond Times Dispatch comes
limping in with a new excuse for OPP
posing Bryan in 1896, and alligning
itself with the stool Pigeons,
'Renegades, "Deserters," and ''Ju-
das Iscariots'' of that memorable pc
riOd, about which we have heard so
much. That journal says: lit was
not Bryan but the platform of 1896

Dispatch opposed" This is indeed re.
freshing Now, as for most Democrats
they oppose Republican because he
is Republican. If DegrO were run.
ming for presiden he might stand on
the most delightful platform ever writ
ten and in such case pOssibJy the
Times-Dispatch would shy. An an
archist like Herr Most might stand on
both the Old and New Testaments and
yet we think We would see the Times
Dispatch take to it's heels. We are
not prepared to believe that the
Times Dispatch ever consulted the
platform to determine its course when
Grover Cleveland was the candidate,
nor do we believe it would have failed
to support Parker had the platform OF
1896 been rewritten when he was NOM
mated. But the Times Dispatch has
arranged matters so as never to be
cornered. When it jumps the fence it
can do so because it does not like the
man in one case, and i'll the other be-
cause it does not like the platform.
Since the Times Dispatch, it seems TO
US, does not take sides with any party
nor advocate or oppose any question
until it has weighed it with reference
to the effect on it's excheq uer. that
paper being entirely out for business
possibly the public ought to look char
itabiy on its seeming Inconsistencies
and pardon It's vagueries. Yet why
not admit that 1t does not like Bryan
personally, that gold bug and sill
yer bug do not feed on the same food,
and that the Candidate for president is
everything, the platform nothing but
hot air, for these are ali facts.

A SLIGHT Of HAND PERFORMANCE.

Secretary Taft is going to try to per.

will make him great indeed. He is
going to try to prove to the Japanese
on his present journey that an exclu-

Americans to go to Japan, but denies
the entry of Japanese to America, is
not racial dislike of Japanese. has no
tendency to humiliate them, is not
done because we dislike Japaneses,b but
on the other hand, is because We love
them SO we'll that we do not want them

RICHARD 8. KER.
A POINTER FOR UUR LEGISLATURE.

1t look as if the lordly Pennsylvania
Railway will be compelled to yield to
the 2-cent rate. 1t has only been few
years since this railroad owned the
State of Pennsylvania. What it said
and not what the Legislature said
went. But now, even this great corpo.
ration must bow to the inevitable, the
will of the people. 1t seems that in
framing the 2-cent rate the Pennsylva-
mia Legislature put a penalty on the
road that sold tickets at over cents
per mile. The penalty was, or is heavy.
it is 81 900 fine; and it is this fine
which they will be compelled to pay
unless they can gain the cases now
pending before the courts of that State,
declaring the laws unconstitutional.
This the railroad does not feel alto
gether certain it can do, hence they
are, it seems going to submit to the law
and 60 Oh with the litigation, so as to
avoid these fines if they lose. In this
Pennsylvania legislation Is a lesson to
be learned by Virginia. Our Legisla
ture will meet in January. There is
nothing to stop it's hand with reference
to rates. 1t should take hold of them
and do SO vigorously, it should take
hold of the Express and Telegraph
companies as we'll as the railroads,
they all need legislative attention, in
deed have been spelling for 1t for long
time, and should not be forgotten
when the Legislature meets.
In the case of the railways the Leg
islature should pass a two.cent fiat
rate at once, putting therein a penalty
of $500 or 81, 900 for every violation. 1t
is claimed that this body has no such
power, but that should make it more
active. The question should at once
be settled as to whether the Leglsla-
ture can create being and at the same
time lose all power to control it. 1t
should not lose day in the prepara-
ton of such laws as are necessary, nor
day in passing them. The Legisla
tnre should also 90 into the question of
freight rates. There is where much of
the iniquity is practiced. indeed the
change of classification or the advance
OF rate by the fraction of cent, often
makes vast difference in the cost of
that article. 1t is an outrage that a
car load of coal brought to Staunton
should cost in freight about twice as
much as the coal is worth-that is a
car load of coal worth $95 say, pays $50
in fir eight. Our Legislature will be
guilty of great negligence il 1t does not
60 into these matters at once.

THE SPEAxERSHlP AND THE RING.

The Hon. John w. Churchman of
this county, who will be elected to the
Legislature this fall, is candidate for
Speaker of the House. The Ring in
the Democratic party is not for him.
When we say ring, We mean the cor.
porate interests of Virginia, and loyal
to these interests are some prominent
office holders. Among these promi-
nent Office holders are the Hon. Thomas
3. Martin, and more or less, some of
us think, the Hon. Hal. d. Flood; the
former one of the Senators from this
State, the latter the Congressman from
this Congressional District.
These are said to favor for the Speak
ership the Hon. Richard Byrd of
Winchester. Of course no one can find
fault with Mr.. Martin on this score
since he is at least consistent. being
for corporations first. last and all the
time, and we ought not, We suppose,
to find fault with Mr.. Flood on this
score, since Mr.. Byrd is bis brother
in law. But we hope some day Mr..
Flood may find opportunity to favor
some of the people of Che 10th district
in preference to those of other dis.
tricts for some of the positions to
which they aspire. The people of this
district have been sorely perplexed and
at times aggrieved over this neglect
as well as ever his preference for others
instead of them. Those of Augusts
would have been pleased to see hin
keep out of the Speakership fight, bur
possibly this would have been asking
too much when we remember tina
/ blood is thicker than water. Yet ",
, feel sure that in case of Mr.. Church
mans defeat it will be less easy 70
