GOOD LAWS FOR
NORTH TAZEWELL
dogs Must Not Run AT Large"
One of The New
Ordinances.

Mayor Beavers is having put into
new and permanent form the town
charter, bylaws, etc, OF the little
city over which he wieids the "Bip
stick. ~ y number of new rules and
regulations adopted by the council
are somew hat drastic, and IL is fear
Ell, viii be hard To enforce. One of
these rules forbids the running at
large of dogs. Owners OF property
In canine flesh will be compelled 10
keep sanc tied or confined. The
question arises, what good can a tied
dog do his community? A dog or
dogs, running loose i'm the streets.
aS we have here in Tazewell, are OF
great utility, and To coniine them
would be n business, rs well as a
social calamity. There would be the
absence, for one thing, of the fami
ilar and highly entertaining dog
light an attraction which never
iails To attract. The merchant who Is
often idle, the hotel porch crowd and
the loafers, leaners, squatters, and
whittlers on the street would be lone
some indeed but for the occasional
dog fight 10 break the monotony,
anu then, think of the fine opportu-
nifty the physicians would be depriv-
cd of in exhibition and demonstrate
ing OF skill in treating hydrophobia,
as other towns sometimes furnish.
lhink OF the surplus eggs, chickens,
sheep ct cetera ad inflnitum, which
would pile up ON our hands but for
dogs To relieve the giut i'm the mark
CT. Why, the magistrates and law
yers would be minus cases i'm court.
and the revenues would be reduced.
Then think, too, how much time
would bc lost In sleep at night IL the
moon-bayor was not allowed To bay!
And finally, think OF the fellow
whose dog "can whip any dog I'm
town In n Hash He viii be reduced
To the necessity OF either being sus-
picioned and assigned To n place i'm
the Ananias Club, or forced To use
less waste of time and energy by
slipping into some back alley nt
night To give "A demonstration. No
sir, Mayor Beavers and the town
council of North Tazewell may Kill
their town if they wish, but we
want no such IA reform and revolu-
ton started in this town. Give us
dogs-they are needed. We can't get
on without them.

Ladies' I'm Back Seats.

In DIR. Hawks church in Blueiild
The ladies are required To remove
their hats in church at both morning
and evening service. Al night they
go To church without their hats, il Is
said. This Is n good move. Every
man hopes the custom may become
general. The hats of this season are
oi such immense size that IL Is i'm
possible to see under, over, beneath
or around them, IL sitting In rear OF
them. III the ladies are unwilling TO
remove these ponderlferous lids they
should take n back seat I'm church,
and do 1.-The rubbering" among
themselves. For once, let the ladies
have n rear eat In church and theater
or else remove their head-gear. Ii Is
to be hoped that the Bluefield GUS
tom viii grow and spread around.

H0GE TYLER FOR
DELEGATE AT LARGE
Should be Sent From Virginia
to Democratic National Con-
yention at Denver
Editorial
Editorial

The Democrats OF the Southwest
will name one delegate-at-large TO
the Denver convention. Several men
of prominence have been suggested
as available but, without rejecting
upon any one else who may have
been mentioned i'm this connection,
we believe that eN-Gov. Hoge Tyler is
unquestionably the one who should
be selected.
The sentiment of the rank and file
of the State Democracy is undenia-
bly, overwhelmingly for Bryan and
Gov. Tyler is the most conspicuous
individual embodiment OF this senti-
ment. he is one OF the old guard
who has never faltered i'm his loyalty
To the great Commoner. He Is one OF
the undaunted optimists who did
not desert after the election Of 1900,
when Mr.. Bryan's political fortunes
seemed TO offer no hope for the vam-
pires Of politics. His record is ipdel-
IDLY written and no one questions his
present political status. lie is for
Bryan from the core out. No infiu-
ence, however great, could swerve
him from the course which he Is
known To favor, and which both ex-
pediency and patriotism have COM
bined to make the only wise course.
lie is n representative Virignian who
in any capacity would reflect honor
on the State. lie is Mr.. Brayn's per-
sonal friend perhaps his most i'm
Innate friend in Virginia. IL is OF
the utmost importance that the per-
sonel of the Denver delegation
should reflect the will of the people,
and let it not be forgotten that
rumors are rife that the anti-Bryan
crowd, which is composed I'm the
main of politicians, will make an
effort To prevent instructing for Mr..
Bryan. Let the trans-A lleghany
Democrats rally 10 the support OF
Hoge Tyler and make him their
leader in the certain effort To defeat
the manipulations of this gang.

DEMOCRATS WIN
IN BLUEFlELD
In Tuesdays Municipal Elec-
tion all Old Officers
are Defeated

The election in Bluefield last Tues
day for municipal officers, resulted
in a sweeping victory for the Demo-
cratic ticket. The new council will
be composed of the following named
citizens of the town:
Mayor, +. NJ. Peters.
Recorder, Jos. f.. Crockett.
Treasurer, A. III. Land.
Supervisor, S. f. Showers.
Councilman at large, j. +. Clark.
COUNCILMEN:
M. l.. Wingefild,
w. r. McArtor,
VIII. st. Clair,
X. III. Scow,
Jas. S. Kahle,
b. Crumpler,
Hoge Mason,
a. b. Thompson.
"A total Of =, $40 votes were cast.
IL is said that n large number Of
nergoes were voted illegally, but not a
sufficient number TO effect material
ly the gratifying results of the cleo
tion. IL is further stated, that many
of the leading Republicans voted and
worked for the success of the Demo-
cratic ticket, and no small number
of those who did not, are gratilied at
the result. The city government had
become decidedly unpopular, and un-
satisfactory among the majority of
Bluefield's best citizens, and n
change and general house-cleaning
was badly needed.

On Monday Mr.. +. A. Schubert,
travelling agent of the Agricultural
and Industrial Department of the
Norfolk and Western railway, Roam
oke, was here talking sugar beets.
He says that Mr.. Ward moved from
Rye Valley, Smythe County, Va. i,
to Lamar, Col, where he has made
a fortune on sugar beets. Mr.. Ward
has been in Southwest Virginia re-
Gently, with view TO moving back
and establishing beet sugar factory
at Pulaski. He was accompanied TO
Virginia by a Mr.. Dyre, Manufac-
ture of Beet Sugar Factory Machin-
cry, Cleveland, o. The n. and w.
railway company has become in
terested in the work, and are now,
at their own expense, canvassing the
territory from Bristol TO Hagerstown,
distributing seed and trying TO get
the people interested in sugar beet
culture, hence Mr.. Schuberts mission
among us. Agents will visit the beet
plants frequently during the season,
giving instruction and encourage
ment. If the sugar beet culture
proves a success in South Western
Virginia, the sugar factory will, in
all probability, be started in the very
near future. While our county may
be, to some extent, interested in
this, still, there is not much danger
OF sugar beets ever taking the place
OF export cattle in Tazewell.

SOME UNIONS IN ALABAMA FIELD
REFUSE TO ABANDON

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Sept. 2.-De
velopments in the mining fields today
caused a revolution of the order for
the removal of the troops on duty at

Gov. Conner took this action because
of the expressed determination of a
number of the local unions to con-
tinue the strike Independently of the
National organization. The Governor
issued a statement in which he said
that he regarded the strike as thing
of the past and any body of men now

garded as a mob and it's members as
Migrants, and that they would be
treated as such. While a certain
amount of confusion is expected in
getting matters adjusted after the
strike, it is not felt that there will be
