John H. WisdOm's Daring Ride.

John H. Wisdom, who died last week
at his home near Gadsden, Ala, won
fame in 1866 by daring all night ride
from Gadsden to Rome, Ga, distance
of 81 miles, which resulted in the capt
ure by the Confederate cavalry leader,
General N. B. Forrest, of General Abel
d. Straight, and the saving to the Con-
federates Of the foundries and stores at
Rome.
Wisdom started from the eastshore of
the Coosa river shortly after night-fall
on his perilous trip, covering the dis
tance in less than seven hours and using
on the trip seven horses. He arrived at
Rome six hours ahead of General
Straight and the city was prepared for
the latter's coming, General Straight
and many of his RAIDERS being taken
prisoners.
The city of Rome presented Wisdom
with costly silver service and S40O in
cash, besides giving a cash prize of $4OO
to the woman who furnished Wisdom
a horse for the last leg of his journey.

JUDGE MANN
LOOKS LIKE WINNER
Returns Coming 10 Slowly From Democratic
Primary Indicate Close Race For GuVer-
nOrship With Chances Slightly Favor
Ing The NotuWay.. Candidate.

Richmond, Va, Aug. 6.-Returns re-
ceived at state headquarters up to 80
this morning give Judge VIM. Hodges
Mann, of Nottoway, a majority in the
State of from 5000 to 5000 over Harry
St. George Tucker for the Democratic
gubernatorial nomination.
The full vote in Richmond is not
known, but nineteen out of twenty five
precincts give Tucker 2,13O; Mann, l.
234, showing Tucker in the lead by S56.
The returns from Clay Ward, which is
Clyde Sanders ward, are being held up.
Sanders is reported to have been de-
feated, and interest is at high pitch.
Lynchburg gave Mann 20 majority
Petersburg gives him 443; Dsnville, 118
and Norfolk, 1,481.
Alexandria gives Tucker 226 majority
Newport News, 80; Fredericksburg, 25
and Roanoke %, with Indicated major
ity in Staunton and Augusta county of
765.
1t is estimated that the Ninth district
gave Mann l, 500, Bristol city going for
him by majority of 234. He also car
ries Wise, Washington, Wythe, Giles,

Lee, Buchanan and Smyth to hear from
Tucker carried Pulaski county by $50
and at this time has small lead in Taze-
well but this may be wiped out by later
returns. Only very small vote was
cast in Tazewell county.
The indications are that Mann, Ely
son, Williams and Brown are the victo-
rious candidates.

EIGHTH-PoPULAR EDUCATION.

EIGHTH-POPULAR EDUCATION.
The Republican party of Virginia es-
tabEshed the free school system in 1869,
and We point with pardonable pride to
the honest and sincere efforts the party
has made from that day to this to ad-
vance the great cause of public educa-
ton. We favor eliminating politics from
the management of the public schools,
and, if entrusted with power, would
place them upon strictly non-partisan
basis. We favor raising the standard
of efficiency of teachers and increasing
their pay. We favor careful super
vision of textbooks, whereby they may
be purchased at the lowest possible
price. We favor lengthening the school
term in rural districts, so that the child
rem there may enjoy better opportunity
for education.
NINTH-HONEST ELECTIONS.
We condemn the Democratic party
for its unfair methods in elections. We
believe that every qualified voter should
have the right to cast one vote and have
that vote counted as cast. To this end
we favor a fair, honest, non-partisan
election law which will give minority
representation on every electoral board
in the State, and which will guarantee
the selection of minority judges and
clerks of election upon the recommen-
dation of the minority party's local or
ganization. The Democratic party has
enacted such laws as give to it exclu-
sive control of the appointment of of
ficers of elections, thus placing in the
hands of that party absolute control of
all elections. We do not believe any
election law is fair or was ever intended
to be fair that makes it possible for the
electoral board, judges of elections,
clerks of elections, and ballot boxes, in
fact all the machinery which should be
intended to give a free people opportu-
nifty to express their will, to be ex-
clusively in the hands of the dominant
political party. That is the case in Vir-
ginia today.
TENTH-IMPRoVEMENT OF PUBLIC
ROADS.
We favor improving the public high
ways of the State. For this purpose we
favor the employment of convict labor
on the public roads. And, furthermore,
we favor cooperation by the State and
national governments for survey Of a
general system of highways throughout
the State, with liberal appropriations by
the State for the improvement of the
same,
ELEVENTH-BANK EXAMINATIONS.
The existing system of State banks
does not afford sufficient protection to
the depositors from the careIessness,
bad judgment or fraud of officials of
State banks. We demand an adequate
system of bank examinations. Although
the system created by the Federal gov
ernment and those systems in force in
numerous States of the Union have long
provided model, the Democratic party,
in control of the State legislature, has

FIFTEENTH-oYSTERS.

The legislation of the Democratic
party on the subject of the oyster beds
of the State has been destructive of the
best interests of this important indus
try of our people. We protest against
this legislation and declare in favor of
maintaining the Baylor survey intact
and strict enforcement of the law
against illegal encroachments upon the
public beds, with appropriation of
enough of the money collected from
licenses and fines to keep the natural
oyster rocks in a condition whereby
they may yield a reasonable return to
the people engaged in this industry
sIXTEENTH-PURE FOOD LEGISLATION.
We favor the enactment of such State
laws as will conform to the pure food
laws of the United States in protecting
the people from impure foods, drugs
and drinks.
SEvENTEENTH-THE DEMOCRATIC GER
RYMANDER.
We denounce as unjust and illegal the
gerrymandering tactics of the Demo-
cratic party whereby the county of
Floyd was taken from the Fifth Con-
gressional district and added to the
Sixth Congressional district, and charge
that the same was done for avowed par
tisan ends and in violation of the plain
provisions of the Constitution and the
wishes of the people. We congratulate
and commend the Hon. John M. Parsons
upon his gallant fight made in the Fifth
Congressional district in 1908, and be-
lieve that an honest count of the vote
cast will show his election and, there.
fore, that he ought to - seated.

impose on the people of this State by
charging exorhitant rates for insurance,
such rates being greater than those
charged to nearby states; and we prom
ise the people, if entrusted with power,
to correct this evil.

Taking the Initiative in a field that
has never been touched heretofore by
other plsywrignts, Joseph N. Weber's
comedy drama, ''Tne Climax" by Ed

that the play in depth of conception
originality, intensity, and wholesome
humor, 90 as far beyond anything
produced By other playwrights. THE
