Foreign immigration
(Communicated)
ClintwoOd, Va.

ClintwOod, Va, April Is.
There seems TO be very decided
tendency TO induce foreign immigra-
ton into Virginia, and perhaps into
other states of this union, also, but
this move concerns us at home-in
Virginia, locally considered, most
All have heard of "the undesirable
citizen, by which term the writer
would characterize most OF the would
be foreign immigrants. OF course, il
must be admitted that some of the
foreigners who would immigrate To
this starte, are all that could be de-
sired in the way of good citizens, but
by far the great majority of them are
of an element that We do not want.
Chief among these are the japanese.
That We even have too great am
element of foreigners amongst ms, is
apparent TO all thi 2king people. Our
own customs and traditions, dear as
they are To us, are becoming gradu-
ally undermined and destroyed 10y
the influx OF this foreign element.
Many of these people are vicious, UNI
learned, and have no respect for our
institutions or social seystems.
Our eveT-increaSing population does
not warrant our State authorities i'm
holding out inducements to foreigners
to come among us, for many sections
OF Virginia are already overcrowded
with our native population.
These foreigners compete with our
laborers, and are able to live upon
what we cannot; they are destroying
the regulations of our labor system.
Within half century, if this immi-
grafton be allowed To continue, our
country will, in great measure, be
confronted by the same conditions
that now confront some of the old
countries To day. The path of de-
struction TO all our social systems
Will be marked by reing of terror
and anarchiStic tendencies.
Let this foreign immigration ten
dency be prohibited, or at least be
discountenanced, if we would pre-
serve our American systems intact,
rs they were intended by our patri-
otic founders, who i'm the dark hours
OF the republic pledged their lives,
their fortunes and their sacred honors
TO the maintenance of their princi-
pies.

There are lot of people talking
about yellow journalism and the
"unbridled press and all that sort of
thing who really do not know what
they are talking about. If the news
papers were TO print one half of the
things they know about prominent
citizens and their families and one
quarter of the things that anonymous
writer's send in to them and which
are often found to be true when in
vestigated, there are many reputa-
tions that would be shriveled up and
lots of families that would be broken
up. The newspapers suppress fan
more than they print. For every
scandal that finds its way into a
newspaper n dozen are suppressed out
of consideration for the families con-
cerned. The average newspaper sup
presses a good deal more news of an
unsavory kind than it prints. The
true editor always tries TO make his
newspaper superior to the ideals OF
his clientele. - Patterson y. j.

Slipped a Cog
Ed. y EWS :
Norton, Va. Ap

Norton, Va, April ID.
Ed. NEWS:
That was quite lengthy comment
you made editorially in recent is
sue ON the Rhea question. 1t was
sensible, which is splendid charac-
teristic of the Clinch Valley News.
For one | always look for the best.
things in your editorial columns.
The reading public is improving year
10y year in this respect-learning To-
appreciate the editorial department,
of the press. 1t is the multum in
parvo department. In fact fine.
education for those who read.
1t Was not my intention to write
an editorial on the value of editor
ialS, but il is II good subject never
theless. What | wanted To say is
this. think you slipped a cog just
little in that comment by saying
that the time To speak out was be
fore the appointment of Judge Rhea,
while his appointment was rumored
and talked about, and not wait until
after the Governor made the appoint
ment. That's exactly what was
done, and that is one of the points
provoking Il goodly number of Demo-
Gratis and citizens. Governor Swanson
was written TO, appealed to, warned
that he perhaps was not doing the
popular thing. He paid no attention
To the opposition, but did not only
| N hp ha
Rhea, but cooked his own political
goose by the appointment, that is, if
il had not been cooked before. Was
not the correspondence or evidence
that Governor Swanson had received
| from the people opposing the ap-
pointment of Judge Rhea asked for
during the investigation. Did il
ever appear? The Governor did not.
! display these letters so far as this.
writer knows. If he did then we are.
ready to ask pardon. The real OPP
position TO Judge Rhea, so far as the.
people was concerned, very little has.
been said. The truth is, the stand the
Judge took in the temperance fight.
over in Bristol last year, his home.
town was the prime cause of the peo-
pies opposition. In the plain lam.
guage of Grover Cleveland, this is
the truth. If the Bristol people quot
ed Judge Rhea correctly the day be-
for that election was held there was
room, and just cause of opposition.
and the Herald Courier quoted him
IN big barn door letters too. Judge
Rhea, however, is appointed and no
doubt will make an active represen-
tavtive commissioned. It's up to
him, and its no small undertaking to-
step into Henry Stuart's shoes.
Yours truly,
E,x- Rhea

Says We" Misrepresented Him.

SundaJ afternoon a News man
called al the jail TO see James Price.
ST., who Is sentenced TO hang ON the
10th day OF June 1905 for the murder
of Sam :. Rhoads. Mr.. Price was
misrepresented by "A Lebanon cores
pondent i'm the Clinch Valley News
and asked us To make correction for
him through this paper. The cores
pondent stated that "he was uncon-
cerned about his future state and
gave but little encouragement To the
ministers who visit him i'm his
cell, and this is where he says the
correspondent misreprcsented him.
We are glad TO say that the condemn
ed man is reading his Bible and
seems much concerned about the
hereafter. Attorney &. G. Burns, of
Lebanon, one among the very best
lawyers i'm the Southwest, has taken
hold of his case and will carry it up
To the supreme court. If new trial
is denied then the Governor will be
asked to commute the sentence TO
life mprisOnment, and i'm case both
is denied then Mr.. Price will have to
die, and we feel sure that he will
have made the necessary prepare
tions TO meet his God in peace.
Three other prisoners occupy cells
in the Lebanon jail namely, Fred
Dye and Tom Cross, awaiting trial
i'm the Russell court for the murder
of John Mutter and George Call ut
Swords Creek few weeks ago. The
other prisoner is Nealy Martin, color
| ed, who is serving twelve months
sentence in Jail for shooting at Bob
Summers several months ago.
Mr.. l.. Gibson has been taller
for four years past and court officers
and people in II position To know give
him credit for being one of the best
keepers in the State. During his four
years ut the Jail many prisoners. have
been in his keeping and not one has
| charged him with a single act of un-
kindness. Lebanon News.
