September II, 1909.
Mr.. Joha T. Barns, Chairman,
Dear Sir-Replying to yours Of even
date, Mr.. Bysrs will be glad to have q
joint discussion here with Mr.. SIemp on
October Srd, and suggest that 2:3O in
the afternoon would be the most con-
venient hour for the public. Please sd-
wise me II this 10 satisfactory. The
place to be arranged on Srd.
Yours very truly,
Henry Roberts, Sec'y.
Tazewell, Va, Sept. II, 1903.
Mr.. Henry Roberts, Secretary,
Dear Sir-Your second communica-
ton OF this date is received, and the
propositions therein contained for a
joint debate at this place on October Srd
between Hon. C. B. Slemp and Hon. j.
Cloyd Byars at 2:30 p. m. is accepted.
Respectfully,
Jno. T. Barns,
County Chairman.
1t will be seen from the above corre-
spondence that the two candidates will
engage in debate at Tazewell on the
Srd Of October.
Mr.. Slemp holds a position of dual
responsibility. He is not only the
Republican candidate for Congress
in the Ninth District but he is also
State Chairman of the Republican
party. 1t is evident that the Democrats
are trying to use Mr.. Byars ~ a stool
pigeon to divert Mr.. Slsmp from the
important work which devolves upon
him as State Chairman. It is the cul-
mination Of the threat Of the Demo
Gratis that they would so engage the at
tention Of Slemp in the Ninth that he
would have no time to devote to other
sections of the State.
After the debate at Tazewell. Mr..
Slemp should waste no more Of his
time with Mr.. Byars. The Ninth Dis
trict will give an overwhelming major
ity for Slemp, even if he should leave
1T In the hands Of his friends for the
balance Of the campaign.

PAST AND FUTURE FINANCES
Nations Panic Partly Due to Extrava.
gance, Says Financier.

Extravaganza on the part of the
whole nation and failure to punish or
remove from their places of trust the
men who have been shown to be Of
tenders against the laws are two of
the causes for the recent financial
panic given ny Stuyvesant Fish in the
annual financial review published the
other dag by the New York Post,
which also gives interesting predic-
tons by men of great prominence In
business and nnanclal matters as to
the outlook for 1908. Mr.. Fish says:
when our 100000 people do econ
omize and really save something daily
the figures will roll up with amazing
rapidity, for, if each OF them should
save on an average so small sum as
8 cents day it will aggregate $1,55l,.
80, 900 in a year."
Tracing the causes of the panic. Mr.
Fish says that whenever state or fed
eral inquiries have been made In in
surance, railroads or local traction
matters corruption has been unearthed
and five or six we'll known names have
always cropped up. He adds:
The guilty parties show no signs OF
repentance. much less of making resti-
tuition. Nor have the chief offenders
resigned or been removed from the
positions of trust and confidence which
they have so greatly and frequently
abused to their own profit and to the
loss Of their stockholders. In the light
of these and similar facts, it is strange
that the large deposits in our own
savings banks and in the national
banks in the west and the vast amount
of money actually held by the people
especially the foreigners among US
are not seeking investment in cor
| porate securities despite the excessive
| ly low prices now prevailing"
Continuing. Mr.. Fish says regarding
| the future:
AT the risk of seeming pessimistic
cannot help thinking that as the prime
cause of our present troubles has not
| been removed we must undergo pc
| riod of depression and curtailment In
business and again learn in the hard
school of adversely the lesson of econ
! omy. Nor in the absence of a restora
ton of confidence in corporate manage
ment is it possible to say when s
change for the better will come about.
Let us hope we are nearing i pc
riod when time and an awakened pub
| lie conscience will remove from powe
some of those who have been tn,
chief sinners, and economy will re
store the losses created by the waste
the extravaganza and the wickednes
Of the last few years."

ADAM AND EVE CLUB. ID
Bankers Scheme to Combine Joys Of
Husband and Wife.

An adam and Eve club" an organ
questions of club life and unite hus-
band and wife and children under one
roof in the pursuit of their social pleas
ures. is the venture upon which John
aire. and his wife are now working.
says Chicago correspondent of the
st. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Mr.. Farson is seeking an available
site on Club row" on Michigan ave
nue., and when this is procured the
latest idea of one of Chicago's leading
eccentrics will be brought to fruition.
Mr. and Mrs Farson left for New
York the other night The Parsons ex-
pect to create considerable interest in
the project in. the east.
The Adam and Eve club would be
counterpart of all well constructed
and properly organized mems and wo-
| mems clubs, with some important ex-
ceptionS. There would be no billiard
| room. no bar and no card rooms. The
entire family may adjourn to the new
| club after the theater to meet friends,
| enjoy an after theater supper or lounge
about. IL they desire they may spend
| the night there, for suits will be pro-
vided for such contingencies.
| In discussing his idea Mr.. Farson
called attention to the fact that the
business of the husband often inter
feres with the pleasures of himself
and wife. In the Adam and Eve
club both >can enjoy pastimes with
| their friends. 1t is his plan to inter
est 500 or more families in the prof
! ect.
/ 'The central idea," declared Mr.. Far
son, sis to form a new manner of clut
life where the pleasures shall be al
Itways those in which whole families
may mingle as against one sex amuse
ments, which have tended recently t.
divide families. such as the whist play
