NOTABLE LIFE
OF COL. MARTIN
Something About the Gallant Soldier
Who Was Elected Commander Of
Pickett Buchanan Camp.

This gentleman, who was elected COM
mander of the Prkett-Buchanan Camp
OF Confederate Veterans last night, has
IN his extended life of seventy-four
years had a noted career, both civic and
military. He is an alumnus of the
University of Virginia, from the late
history of which and published bio
graphies, we make compendium.
He was captain of the light artillery
company from Norfolk county. the
place of his birth; afterwards Geuten-
ant-colonel and commander of the Thir-
ty-eighth Virginia Regiment, Pickett's s
Division. He defended Lynchburg un-
der General Cohlson; was with the
President at Charlotte, and received a
Henry rifle from him, which is now in
the museum at Richmond, as a testi-
monial. He was with the President at
Washington, Ca, at the dissolution of
the Government, and surrendered in
Augusta the day before his capture.
He represented Norfolk citv in the
Senate and Norfolk county twice in the
House of Delegates, and while there
had the bill taxing saloons for the bene-
mt of the free schools of his county
passed, which has added more than
800, 200 to their support.
He was railroad commissioner of the
State, and afterwards police commits
sioner of this city.
He has written many literary produc-
tions, and now has ready for publica-
ton two important historical sketches.
entitled, respectively, "The Birth of
the Confederacy" and ''The Demise of
the Confederacy," both of which will
develop new facts clothed in a new
dress.
He refused the position of comman-
der in another camp which was tender
ed him to give place to those he prefer
red to himself, but when no one was
offered he gladly consented to serve
those he had esteemed as fellow sold
iers. Norfolk Ledger-Dispatch, Jan.
18th, 1908.
The above, taken from the Norfolk
Ledger-Dispatch, refers to Col. Geo. A.
Martin, who is we'll known to many peo-
pie in Tazewell. He is the father of
Mr.. G. A. Martin, Jr., who lives two
miles east of Tazewell; and he for a
brief time lived in our town and prac-
ticed law here.
Colonel Martin was not only gallant
soldier and intrepid leader, but he is a
cultured and courtly gentleman of the
old school, very few of whom are now
left in Virginia. Editor.

Policy Of Cancellation.

London, February 12.-The Times this
morning publishes a long Lisbon dis
patch reviewing recent events in Portu-
gal. 1t says that the situation is i'm
proving daily and that the government
adheres to its policy of conciliating pub
lie opinion, but that it would be a mis-
take to consider all danger.
One of the most widely read newspa-
pers, continues the Times correspond

King has pacifed, but not disarmed
public opinion, and urges the widest

of mercy as the mainstay of the Throne
The correspondent hears that the idea

constitution, finds many supporters in
the cabinet and council of State.

Ohio for Taft.

Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 1.-THE net
result of the Republican primaries held
throughout Ohio today was for William
II. Taft. Four delegates at large and
twenty-five district delegates to the
National Convention in Chicago and a
list Of delegates to the State conven-
ton to be held March 8, which will be
unanimously in his favor. Hardin coun-
ty held no primaries,
No opposition worth mentioning de-
veloped during the day. The Supreme
Court destroyed all chances of success
by the Foraker element in Cuyohaea
county by declaring that the Taft coun-
ty committee was the only valid organi-
zation of its kind in that county and the
selection of delegates there went by
default, no ticket being placed in the
field against the Taft candidates.
In Knox county the opposition to Taft
had brought an independent" ticket
into the field, the independents. how
ever, beng all Foraker men. The Taft
candidates won easily, the vote being
about four to one in their favor. Actual
voting for delegates to the State con-
vention was carried on in but thirty-five
out of the total of lightweight coun-
ties in the State, the Taft delegates in
ffty-two counties having no Opposition
their names We're simply certified as
having been elected.

SOUTH MAY GET TEN MILLIONS.
Bill to Pay War Claims Unanimously Re-
ported by the House Committee.

Washington, Feb. 11.-About $1O,-
o0o, 900 may be secured from the gov
ernment by the people of the South If a
bill reported unanimously by the house
committee on war claims becomes q
law. The bill gives to the court of claims
jurisdiction of the claims for captured
and abandoned property which was sold
during the civil war and the proceeds
turned into the United States treasury.
During that war the government auth
orized the seizure of abandoned proper
ty, to be sold and the net proceeds plac-
ed in the United States treasury. There
was a provision that If any one should
bring suit within two years after the
close of the war and prove that the
property sold belonged to him the mon
ey received for it should be paid over,
but to do this the citizens bringing suit
had to prove loyalty to the Union. This
disqualified most Southerners until the
amnesty proclamation was declared in
1866, which came too late to take the
claims to court, the two years grace
having expired. The object Of this bill
is to enable the original owners of the
confscated property to get the money
1t brought when sold.

ASSESSMENTS ARE wATeREO.
FOXES Calls on Legislature to Squeeze
Buchanan County Land Books
Stop Speculation.

A resolution offered by Senator
Folkes, attacks the assessment of lands
IN Buchanan county as fraudulent and
calls on the committee on Courts of JUS
tlce to take such action as may be neces-
sary to protect unsuspecting land pur-
chasers from the fraudulent misrepre-
sentations made to them by pretended
owners of land, when, in fact, no such
ownership exists.
The resolution recites that there is
assessed upon the land books of Buch-
anan county 2,949, O5s acres, whereas. it
IS fact known by every one that no
such acreage exists, and it is a matter
Oh common report that syndicates and
corporations outside of Virginia pre-
tended to own land in Buchanan county.
and have had the same entered upon
the land books for the purpose of decep-
ton, and use such entries in their fraud
ulent sales of land in that county.
DEFENDS COUNTY.
Senator Chase, who represents this
county, said that he was heartily in IA
vor OF anything that would correct the
assessment of land in this county. He
vigorously defended the good name of
the people of this mountain county. and
said that they could not prevent people
from other places placing deeds on rec
ord to land claimed to be located in
their county. He said that some of the
claimants to the land in that county had
paid taxes on these claims to the amount
of some $50, 900, out of which the State
had received some SIS, 900, and that
these taxes had been paid by these par
ties after investigation by lawyers of
ability, and that there was now a suit
pending in the United States Court for
the Western District of Virginia involv-
ing some 200, 900 acres of this land: that
he wanted to assure the Senator from
Richmond he was willing to remedy
these duplicate assessments, if any eff
fective plan could be devised to do so.-

TURKEY MAY HAVE TO
FIGHT THE RUSSIANS.
Flying Squadron of 10000 Troops Sent
to Frontier With Assent of Duma to
0Verawe the "Sick Man
Of Europe

St. Petersburg, Feb. 8.-The Russo
Turkish relations have entered upon a
menacing phase. Alarmed at the un-
checked Turkish penetration of Persia
and the mobilization in Armenia. the
Russian government has decided to exc
cute formidable military demonstra-
ton in reply on the Turko-P Persian
frontier, despatching there a compact
expedition of $4,000 select troops from
central Russia with full war equipment.
and it is acting with uncommon rapid
lty with a view to overawing the Turks
by decisive exhibition of force.
The war Office has drawn up plans of
the expedition and submitted them hur-
rledly for legislative enactment to the
Duma Friday. The Committee on Ma
tional Defense assembled in virtually
closed session. A representative of the
war office briefly and impressively out
lined the Turkish preparation, on which
Russia is fully informed, and asked for
an open credit for the maintenance of
an army of 10000. He met the possible
argument of economy by saying that
Russia had expended blood and treasure
In Manchuria in vain, owing to the init
iai backwardness in armament. The
empires prestige in the middle east, he
said, IS now also in the balance, and
Russia must be prepared TO defend it.
M. Guchkoff, of the Octoberist party.
in speech said that the majority in the
Duma were Russian patriots and willing
to part with their last shirt" to defend
the Fatherland. The committee, in
high pitch Of patriotism, passed the ap-
preparation unanimously.
At the same session the war Office OBJ
tanned sanction for a further item of
$40, 200, 900 to create floating batteries
along the Baltic coast, which, owing to
the weakness of the navy, is at the
mercy of Germany.

NO LONGER ENGAGED.
All Is of Between Senator Davis and
Miss Ashford.

Washington, Feb. 11.-Miss Maud
Ashford, of this city, today announced
that she was no longer engaged to for.
mer United States Senator Henry G.
Davis, the Democratic candidate for
vice president in the last campaign.
Miss Ashford stated that she broke the
engagement last night. She said she
and the former Senator had then dis
cussed the matter and Miss Ashford re-
ferred to the publicity which had been
given the subject and to the determined
opposition Of some of the members of
Mr.. Davis family to the proposed mar
rage. She said that she had no desire
to enstrange the Senator, at his age,
from his family. For these reasons she
did not care to have the engagement
continue.
Mr.. Davis declined to be interviewed
saying that he had no purpose of max
ing any newspaper statements on the
subject.

MANY ROBINS KILLED.
Hunters In Louisiana Have Shot About
One Million.

New Orleans, Feb. 1.-An announce
ment that about one million robins had
been killed by hunters this winter in
Louisiana, which is a winter home for
these birds, was made today by Frank
M. Miller, president of the Louisiana
Audubon Society. Following this an
nouncement, George Howell, a Govern
ment expert here to investigatate the
habits of robins, said the Government
may prove that the eastward movement
of the boil weevil had been facilitated by
the reckless destruction of the robins.
The birds are killed for food.

NO DECISION WAS REACHED.
The Absence Of Mr.. Isnuey Caused the
Committee Not to Take Action.

Richmond, Feb. 11.-While hundreds
of eager and anxious friends of Judge
William F. Rhea, of Bristol. awaited
their verdict the House and Senate
Joint Committee on Combinations to-
night debated for three hours and a
half among themselves over the evil
dence IN the investigation, purporting
to show cause why the Bristol Judge
should not be seated as member of the
State Corporation Commission. At the
conclusion of the committee hearing, no
report was Forthcoming, but it was said
by the chairman, Capt. Thos. S. West.
of Bedford, that the only reason why a
verdict had not yet been reached. was
on account of the absence of Tyson Jan
ney, of King William, member of the
committee.
