The State Ticket.

A dispatch from Richmond says:
There is lot of gossiping and proph-
esying about the final outcome of the
race for gubernatorial honors in the
coming campaign, but there has not
been even murmur concerning some
of the other fat places to be filed.
While 1t is believed that Judge Will
liams, of Wythe county, will again OPP
pose General Anderson for the attorney
generalship, the judge has not come
forward as yet with fiat statement to
that effect. 1t will be remembered that
during the last two campaigns Judge
Williams has made futile stabs at the
scalp of the general, but they saw fit to
send General Anderson back to his job.
Hon. James r. Cation, of Alexandria,
will be candidate for lieutenant-gov-
ernor, now held by J. Taylor Ellyson.
While Mr.. Ellyson has made no pub
lie statement to the effect that he would
be candidate to succeed himself, it is
believed that he will.
1t is believed that the following cleo
tive officers will stand to succeed them
selves: d. Q. Eggleston, secretary OF
the commonwealth; A. w. Hartman,
Jr., treasurer; J. ID. Eggleston, Jr., SUI
perintendent of public instruction, and
George w. Koiner, commissioner OF
agriculture.

Hicks July Weather Forecast.

A reactiOnary storm period is central
on the 4th, 5th and 9th. Storm period
central on June 18th will last into the
1st and I'd of July. On and touching
the 4th, 9Th and 9Th look for reaction
to falling barometer and change to
much warmer. CloudineSs, rain and
thunder storms will visit many locali-
ties on and next to the 9Th, as low
barometric area pass eastwardly over
the country. Were the moon either in
conjunction or opposition earthquakes
would be certainty on and about the
9th.
A regular storm period reaches from
the 9th to the 18th, embracing the full
moon of greatest south declination on
the 18th. By the 10th decided fall of
the barometer will be noted in western
sections, attended by warm wave OF
marked intensity. From about the
10th and 18th, coming to a crisis on and
touching the 18th, look for black Storm
clouds, with rain, thunder and high
wind. Taking period of five to six
days, with July 18th as the center,
lightning disturbances are more than
probable in many parts of the globe.
Brief change to somewhat cooler will
be natural from about the 18th to 10th.
A reactionary storm period is central
on the 10Th and 18th, when look for
change to much warmer, with falling
barometer and return to clOudineSs and
light rain.
A regular storm period is central
coincident with the center of the Mer-
curry period, the regular storm period
extending from the 18th to 24th and
Mercury period from 18th to 28th. Dur
ing the 21st to 24th threatening storm
cloudsand severe buster will be ma
tural. A change to cooler and more
pleasant conditions may be expected
from about 24th to 9th.
A reactiOnary storm period is central
on 9th, 18th and 29th. The moon is
at extreme north defamation on the
Goth, in apogee on the 18th and in con
junction with earth and sun, or at new
moon, ON the 18th. 1t is possible thai
change to cooler may not appear gen
orally from the 25th to 9th following
the previous period, in which event thu
temperature will continue to increase
eliminating in one of the most intens'
shot waves" of the summer, counting
three days before and after Tuesday
the 18th. Thunder storms of grea
strength and buster will be due OF
and near the 18th. A seismic periOt
of five to seven days is also central Oh
the 18th. indications are that heat
ed term will be broken, letting in
respite of some days of more pleasan
weather as we pass from July into Al
gust.

There is to be big fourth OF July
celebration in Greenville. They always
could beat our town when it comes to
getting up enjoyment and recreation.
Some young agents" from Staunton
visited our town one night week before
last and the way they drove those poor
livery horses was sin, and they were
not arrested either. They abused sew
eral citizens who demonstrated them.
Some of our automobile friends must
remember there is law governing their
running on the roads. They shall get
to the side of the road, stop and help
by with scared horses. Now so many
dash by at full speed and don't seem TO
care how much your horse tries 10
break up things. Some go through
here running 70 or % miles an hour'
never checking al all. This is very
dangerous, as children are often in the
street. A few Sundays ago couple OF
negroes were fined for fast driving.
Now autos are more dangerous than
buggies, and we want to warn all that
they had better consider the rights OF
others, and if reckless running and fail
ure to stop when horses are frightened
is not put a stop to and the law obeyed,
there will be another Mt Crawford for
some one. The people here are tired OF
it. If tn law must be enforced against
people for fast driving it will be
against fast auto driving as well. There
was strange car through here last
week running at least 30 miles an hour,
irving to show off. Next time youI
correspondent is going to take theil
number. Let the thing be broken VI
before some one is crippled or killed
There is no sense in such fast, reckless
running.

The Tree Fakir.

Our old friend, the tree fakir, has TAX
en- the road again. He is working in
towns and cities. He usually pretends
to be employed by the United States
government or the State Experiment
Station. He looks at trees, notifies the
owners that borers or scales are at
them, and that the law compels treat
ment. Then he offers to do it for them
with some new remedy at SIS or more
per gallon. These rascals find plenty
of victims-some of them lawyers or
others who are good at catching other
swindlers. No government officer is
permitted to charge for examining
trees, and not one Of them is permitted
to sell materials for spraying. When
any man pretends to do either, and also
claims to be a government expert ne
proves himself swindler. Drive him
right off the place and do not buy any
of his stuff.-Wincheste Star.
