Revenue From WhIskey Shops.

Despite the manifold exactions of the
Byrd liquor law and the fact that ma
jority of the hundred counties in the
state have altogether forbidden the sale
of ardent spirits, the commonwealth
will suffer comparatively smaller loss
of revenues this year than had been an
ticipated, because of the fact that IL
censes have been raised from SITS to
$3.50. Richmond will fare worse than
other restrictive ordinance cutting down
the number of saloons to one hundred
and fifty. The jump in the cost of
licenses helped considerably to meet the
vast deficit which would otherwise have
been caused by the changed conditions.
The commonwealth this year will lose q
total of $40,0 The above result is
shown by the compilation Of figures in
the Office of the auditor for the fiscal
year.

TroIiY Line for Coal District

A communication to the Manufact-
urer's Record from Northfork, w. Va.
says:
'Mr. L. G. Toney, of Northfork, and
other prominent local capitalists have
raised the money to build a trolly line
from Northfork, w. Va, to Elkhorn.
W. Va, and if franchise can be gotten
from Mcdowell county court work will
be begun at once.
Several companies have been organ
lied in late years to build this and other
lines through the coal fields; numbers OF
surveys have been made and franchises
granted, but for one reason or another
nothing has been done, but this company
has the money, and it all depends on Nc
Dowell county court granting the fran.
chise.
This road will be but one of the links
of continuous line from Bluefield tc
Welch, and is in the very heart of the
celebrated Pocahontas Flat-Top Goa
field and at the most densely settled
point,

Lawyer Fined Fer Coutempt.

Richmond, Va, Sept. q. Judge Ed
mund Waddill. of the United States
district court, today imposed a fine Of
$3.50 on Henry c. Rely, a young lawyer,
for contempt of court. The case had
its origin in connection with the East
Coast Lumber Company's failure some
time ago. Rely was named as one of
the receivers in the case, but he declined
to serve, the judge declined to allow
him to retire and Rely is said to have
given use to language which was con-
structed to reflect on Judge Waddill.
Judge Waddill accepted Reily's plea
that the language he had employed was
not in the least intended to be a refiec-
ton on him but that it was used to ex-
press his sentiments as to service as g
receiver In view Of what he had learned
of the reported action Of the other
lawyer named as a receiver in the
court. The judge has taken under ad-
visement the question of reducing the
amount of the fine. Rely is a son of
the late Judge John W. Reilly of the
supreme court of appeals, and is law
yer Of much prominence,

IN GRASP OF the BOOK TRUST
Democratic P.rtY, Asserts Speaker, Has
Turned Virginia Over 10 School
Book Monopoly.

Norfolk, Va, Sept. 19.-In a speech
last night before the Norfolk Taft
Sherman-Groner club, J. L. Gleaves,
of Wytheville, Va, said that the dem
ocratic orators of the country are
raising the cry of trusts, but that that
party would fare badly in Virginia
but for the oficeholders trust, and
charged that the State is in the grasp
Of the book trust through democ-
racy. when you sent your child
to school the other day you found
that you had been delivered over to the
school book trust, by the democratic
oftiicehelders of the state" he went on
to say. "And the books you bought
last year were not good enough for this
years session. Democratic orators do
not say anything about the book trust
in Virginia which you and have to feed
IN order to give our children an educa-
ton. The democratic party is not,
never has and never will be the friends
of popular education for the masses.
Why? Because as soon as you learn you
will cease to be democrats.
The other speakers were Alvah h.
Martin and R. T. Thorpe, both of whom
attacked democracy and urged the cleo
tion of Taft, Sherman and Groner, as
congressman as for the best business
interests Of the country.

HEARST TURNS
HASKELL DOWN.
Refuses to Let Board Of Editors Pass Oh
Guilt or Innocence Of Governor.
RED-HOT RETORT FROM The EDITOR
Likens Haskell To The Burglar Who Was
Caught With The Goods Then Tried
To Arbiirste With The Judge.

New York, Sept. 21.-William R..
Hearst, who has been campaigning for
the national ticket of the Independence
League in the south and middle west re-
turned to this city tonight and after
wards issued statement concerning
the challenge of Gov. C. N. Haskell, of
Oklahoma. In his recent speeches Mr..
Hearst had charged that Haskell, who
is now treasurer of the Democratic ma
tionsl committee had sought in 1899 to
influence Attorney General Frank S.
Monnett, of Ohio, to dismiss certain suits
then pending against the Standard Oil
Company. In telegram to Mr.. Hearst,
which he made public last night, Gov.
Haskell invited Mr.. Hearst to publicly
prove his charges before committee of
editors.
MIR. Hearst refuses to accept the sug-
gestion of an editorial board of arbitra-
tion in the following.
''To the Associated Press:-I address
this communication to you, as l cannot
have the slightest correspondence or
controversy with a man of Mr.. HaskelPs
character.
"Mr. Haskell's proposition reminds
me of the well-known story of the burg
lar who was caught in the act by the
police. When the police burst in upon
him, they found him in front of q safe
which had been blown open, with his
tools In his pocket, dark lantern in one
hand and his other hand on the valua-
bles in the safe.
The police dragged the burglar to the
court room and the judge said to the
culprit:
" Well, what have you to say for
yourself?'
THE burglar said: Look-a-here,
judge, let's arbitrate this case
The court records, the complaint of
ex-Attorney General Ohio, the affidavit
OF the present assistant of the present
attorney general of Ohio, Mr.. Burnett,
the court records of the state of Okla
homa in the Prairie Oil and Gas Com
pany case, accuse Mr.. Haskell and not 1.
Mr. Haskell has had many years in
which to sue Mr.. Monnett if that gen
tleman committed libel in naming C.
n. Haskell as one of the men who at
tempted to bribe him in the Standard
Oil case.
''Haskell's proposition to arbitrate
the matter now shows that he has q
sense OF humor, even If he has not a
sense of honor.

WILL HENRY ALOERSON.

The death of VIII Henry Anderson.

as great shock to his many friends
and relatives. The deceased was a son

young man of brilliant intellect and

gard OF every one who knew him. His
department throughout his business re-
iations with others was always marked

In the death Of this warm-hearted
and honorable young man, the commun-
lty in which he lived has sustained a
real loss, and the general appreciation
OF this fact is evidenced by the sinceri-
ty with which he is lamented by a large
circle of friends and relatives.
In addition to his other accomplish.
ments, he was musician of unusual
talent and skill, being an accomplish
ed violinist. He loved the beautiful.
and moved others by sweet music on his
violin. The floral tributes were among
the most beautiful ever seen here.
The deceased was thirty-two years of
age, and is survived by his father and
mother and one sister, Mrs. V. L. Sex
ton, of Graham, Va. and one brother,
Mr.. Chapman Anderson, of New York
City.

home of his parents Tuesday afternoon.

On last Friday the news reached Taze-
well that A. P. Kelly had died at about

sister, Mrs. Preston. These services

ers, DR.. James Kelly and Messrs. Mar

noble traits of his sainted mother

College and the University of Virginia.
Teaching was his chosen profession.
With the exception of three years spent
IN the practice of law in the city of
Chattanooga, Tenn, his life was given

he was elected principal of the Mountain
View High School. AS a teacher he

bine in the making of a genuine in
stFuctor, always winning his way into
the hearts and life of his pupils. In the
school room he constantly held before
their minds the ideal life, and by pre-
cept as we'll as example, sought to de-
velop the best in every life.
Can there be a greater mission thar
that Of the Christian teacher? With
possibly one exception, it stands pre-.
eminently at the head of all W TX. Will
not God our Father, in H infinite
mercy and love, remember az reward
