CHARLES swINBURN

This years Nobel prize for poetry
it is understood, will be awarded to
the author of this:
The wind is as iron that rings,
The foam heads loosen and fee:
1t sweils and welters and swings,
The pulse of the tide of the sea.
And up on the yellow cliff
The long corn flickers and shakes:
Push, for the wind holds stiff,
And the gunwale dips and rakes.
Good hap to the fresh fierce weather.
The culver and beat of the seal
While three men. hold together
The Kingdoms are less by three.
And this:
Fate is a sea without a shore and the
soul is a rock that abides.
But her ears are vexed with the roar
and her face with the foam of
the tides.
And this:
Our wild steeds press on the night,
strain hard through pleasure and
peril,
Labor and listen and pant not or pause
for the peril that nears;
AND the sound of them trampling the
way cleaves night as an arrow
asunder,
And slow by the sandhill and swift
by the down with its glimpses
of grass,
sudden and steady the music, as eight
hoofs trample and thunder,
Rings in the ear of the low blind
wind of the night as we pass.

Lsug Litigation Over $3.50 Bill.

A civil suit was institutedin Justices
court Of Wise county sometime since,
which is attracting more attention than
is ordinarily given suits Of this nature.
The novelty of this legal process lies in
the almost unprecedented number of
hearings that have been given it, with
the same verdict at each hearing.
The gravamen Of this suit is the al
legged shortage of specified amount of
corn contracted for from Damron &
Larg, logging firm, by Buchanan &
Stanly, who are engaged in the trans
portation of lumber. The amount of
shortage claimed is four and one-half
bushels, which deficit the sellers refused
to make good. The claimants then sued

upon the fourth hearing, which will
probably be granted. The cost of this

entire Commonwealth our speakers
could not get joint discussion with
Democratic speakers or candidates, and
our Jonesville speaking had been adver-
tised for long time and the voters
were on hand therefor, yet we agreed
for a joint debate, Messrs. Byars and
Chamberlayne speaking on behalf of the
Democrats and Mr.. Muncey and myself
on behalf of the Republicans.
Two speakers representing each
party were advertised for Lebanon the
next day, and another joint debate was
expected to occur at that place. Ex-
Gov. J. Hoge Tyler failed to appear,
and so we notified the Democratic cam
pa;ign managers that if they would sup
ply his place, a similar Joint debate
would be given at that point. This the
Democratic campaign managers failed
to DO, and consequently there was no
joint discussion"
Mr.. Slemp added, 81 take it the
Democrats could hardly expect the
Republican campaign managers to see
to 1T that Democratic speakers keep
their engagements or arrange substi-
tutes when they fail to appear; it is do
ing enough when we furnish the
crowds.
Another fake has been perpetrated
by the Democrats in connection with
the campaign In this district. The
morning after the joint debate at Jones'
vile all the Democratic dailies in the
State published speech that they said
had been made by Mr.. Byars at Jones'
vile. That speech was given out be-
fore he went to Jonesville, or at least
before the joint discussion. 1t was
not the speech that Mr.. Byars made
in the joint debate; and its publication
was fraud that neither he nor the
Democratic papers have as yet acknowl-
edged and corrected. This shows what
a high standard of political ethics is
now held by the Democratic candidate
and the papers that are trying to boost
his weak cause.

VETERANS HAVE BIG REUNION.
Russell County Confederate Veterans
Hold Annual Reunion at Honaker.

On last Saturday, the 18th inst, the
Confederate Veterans of Russell had q
splendid reunion at Honaker. The peo-
pie OF that hospitable town threw their
homes open to the visitors and gave such
a welcome to the old Confeds that thew
chose Honaker for the next annual
meeting.
A committee on arrangements, made
up from citizens of the town, had a pro-
gramme arranged that made the coca,
sion very interesting. At IL O'Clock
the veterans assembled at the railway
station and were formed into line for
marching to the baseball grounds, where
the ceremonies were to take place. A
brass band, preceded by number of
young ladies, wearing the National flag
and the Confederate flag as sashes.
headed the line as it marched 70 the ap-
pointed place. According to an accur-
ate count there were 26s old soldiers in
the column. They seemed to greatly
enjoy the opportunity to once more
march together as band of brothers.

he handled his old comrades most skill.

When the parade arrived at tss
grounds they were formed into a holloE
square; and W. B. Greear, MAYOR of
Honaker, delivered a nice address of
welcome to the old soldiers and visitors.
1t was estimated that there were over
four thousand people in the crowd.
many of Russell's fairest daughters be-
ing present. After the address of vel
come was over a very bountiful repast
was spread for the veterans, and manv
visitors were invited to participate with
them in disposing of it.
At three o'clock a game of baseball
was begun between the Honaker team
and team made up from Richlands.
Raven and Swords Creek. Only seven
innings were played and the score stood
ii to in favor of the home team.
More than thousad persons witnessed
the game.
1t was very enjoyable occasion for
all who attended, and the editor of this
paper was among the number who en-
