ART IN sRoILINe CHICKENS.
Too Hot Fire Usually Responsible for
Non-Success.

To broil chicken so that 1t is cooked
through, yet not burnt, is an art few
cooks seem to possess. The reason
IS usually that the fire is too hot and
the chicken too close to It.
The perfection of broiling requires
a clear bed of Goals and the broiler
FAR enough away for its contents To
cook slowly. This latter requirement
Is met by having several bricks. on
which the broiler can be set to raise
1t above the fame, instead OF ALLOWING
1t to rest directly en- the surface of
the range, as is the usual way.
Should the fire be too hot. insert an
other layer OF bricks for z short time.

OF wearing it, even if it were the only

The trouble is that shawls are out

camel through the eye of a needle

That is out Of fashion. When wom-

01e On the News Leader.
Norfolk Landmark.

Norfolk Landmark.
Il isn't often that anybody gets the
Richmond News Leader where it hest
tates about expressing a definite opin-
mon one way or the other. That contem-
porary has remarkable facility of ex-
preston and usually displays great will
ingness and enjoyment in the exercise
thereof. There is hardly any dragon
that 1t isn't glad to meet half way, if
not more than half way. But Mr..
Howard c. Miller, of Norton, Va,
seems to have stumped the News Leader
with a very simple question, which we
are really surprised to see our intrepid
contemporary avoid. The News Leader
has been making great fuss about its
activity in behalf of the Democratic
campaign fund-so much, indeed. that
we almost looked for it to rattle a gan
der, like the Charleston News and
Courier; and yet the Richmond champion
allows Mr.. Miller to exhibit it in this
blushing condition: "Mr. Howard C.
Miller, of Norton, Va, obviously is fas-
cinated with the happy hallucination
that he has an idea. He is so much de-
lighted with it that he insists on display
ing it and asking public attention to it
as eagerly as an eight-year-old boy with
his first pair of red-tops or a girl with a
diamond engagement ring. Mr.. Miller's
supposed idea is to ask the editor-in-
chief of the News Leader whether. in
case he had the power to decide who
shall be the next President of the United
States, he would choose Mr.. Taft or
Mr.. Bryan. We confess that the oues-
ton impressed us as nonsense, but Mr..
Miller seems so pleased with it that for
his qualification an answer may be de-
sirable.
Therefore, we answer to Mr.. Miller
that we don't know what the News
Leader would do in the impossible con-
ditions he suggests. No such respon-
sibility has ever been or ever can be put
on any human being.
Inc Landmark is not fool Bryan
mite, and has had a few rounds with
the saucy Columbia State on that ac-
count. We are not in so bad fix as
the News Leader, though. We are able
to say with absolute sincerity that if we
had the choice of the matter we should
elect the Democratic ticket instead of
the Republican, in spite of the fact that
we have a good deal of liking for candi-
date Taft. While admitting that Mr..
rats administrative ability probably
exceeds Mr.. Bryan's by a good MANY
degrees, and while admitting that we
admire Mr.. Taft's personally more than
Mr.. Bryan's, we are convinced that
Taft is great deal better than his party
and that it would be bad for the country
II the Republicans should remain unre-
buked in power.
Yes, the Landmark would decide for
Bryan victory this time if it had the
conclusive vote, and would do so con-
scientiously on broad grounds. Let the
News Leader profit by our example. and
1t can then snap its fingers at Mr.. Mil
Ter. That gentleman is hardly to blame
Tor being fascinated with an idea when
1t makes the bold News Leader wriggle
so.

torate of this district has been de-
oauched by its candidate. an insult that
is devoid of truth; and given to men he
Is now trying to win TO his support. If
Mr.. Byars had been very smart man
he would never have INDUCED in the ut
terSnce of such sentiments as these.
Then, what right has an adherent of
VIM F. Rhea to talk about repudiating
eorruptionists and to demand that others
come with clean hands. Mr.. Byars has
been IN position to know that VIM. F.
Rhea was the embodiment Of a political
corruptionist; and, yet, he was one of
those who journeyed to Richmond.
along with those who perpetrated crimes
against the electorate in the interest
Rhea, to testify to the purity and high
standing of VIM. F. Rhea in the Ninth
District. As long as Mr.. Byars is a
disciple of Rheaism he should cease to
proclaim himself the upholder of high
ideals in public life and one who who
will scorn the corruptionist of ones
countrymen. Let him set his own
house in order before he undertakes" to
preach political morality to others.
That Mr.. Byars is insincere in his
professions Of love for the laboring
man is further proved by the fact that
in his speech at Jonesville he sneered at
those who have been d:sfranchised bv
the poll tax qualification for voting, and
expressed his earnest approval of the
Ubiquitous suffrage and election laws
put in force by the new constitution.
These laws have turned thousands of
honest white men away from the ballot
box. The laboring men in the Ninth
and throughout Virginia have been the
chief sufferers from these evil laws. 1t
Is brazen impertinence for Mr.. Byars
to appeal now to the laboring man to
vote for him. The honest, intelligent
laborer will turn his back upon him.
Mr.. Byars cannot justly claim to be
the friend of purity in elections SO long
as he favors che dishonest, partisan
suffrage and election laws now in force.

HONEST AND INTELLIGENT.

In his speech at Pulaski on the 25th
ult., Mr.. Byars said there were plenty
of honest Republicans in the district
and plenty of intelligent Republicans.
but when they got to be both honest
and intelligent they became Demo-
Gratis
Perhaps Mr.. Byars intended this for
witty remark, or, perhaps, it was
meant to iatter Republicans. But
whatever his intention the remark was
excessively stupid.
AT the coming election Mr.. Byars
will find that there are about fifteen
thousand Republicans in the Ninth Dis
trict who will be too honest and intelli-
gent to ever become such Democrats as
Mr.. Byars has proven himself, a pro-
tege of Bill Rhea.

Haskell and Bryan.

1t is more than probable that the man.
ayers of the Democratic campaign will
find some way of dumping C. N. Has,
kell. Bryan wants to investigate; Kern
Is impatient for immediate action: Dis
may Is manifest at Democratic head
quarters, and everything indicates that
the Democrats will not oblige the Re-
publicans by trying to carry Haskell in
position of honor and trust though the
remainder of the campaign.
Haskell is not Bryan, but he is a sam
pie of the kind of man Mr.. Bryan's
uninstructed judgment approves. Has
ken, according to his record, was first a
promoter and exploiter of railroads
bankrupt at their birth. He drifted to
Indian Territory, there to become the
chief drafter of the radical Oklahoma
Constitution and the friend and pro-
tector of one of the affiliated branches
of the Standard Oil Company. He is
charged by former Attorney General
of Ohio with having attempted to bride
him to stop suits aginst the Standard
Oil Company in the State. He is
charged by the Attorney General of his
own State of Oklahoma with using his
official authority to block the Attorney
General and enable the Standard OILS
subsidiary company to do an illegal act
In that State. The trail of Standard
Oil and the mark of a lawless and un-
principled adventureer is all over Has
kell. President Roosevelt's Indictment
of him is feebly answered by Haskell's
response. Is this the sort of man the
Democratic party wants to be sponsor
for?
he danger point is that this man won
the admiration and confidence of a man
who is candidate for President of the
United States. Is Haskell the kind of
man Bryan would place in position of
responsibility and trust? APPARENTLY SC.
No man was so close to Mr.. Bryan i'm
mediately before and since his nomina-
ton as c. N. Haskell. He was chairman
of the Committee on Resolutions, put
Bryan in nomination and was made
treasurer of the Democratic committee.
and has been one Of the chief directors
Of the Democratic campaign. He is a
man whom Bryan's Judgment and taste
