Fair TO Mr.. Stuart

Tbs Bristol News, which IS the
only Republican daily newspaper In
the Ninth District. and which nat
urally is advocating the reelection
of Congressman Slemp. expresses a
very iair and accurate opinion con-
cerniug the unfortunate experience
of MIR. Henry G.. Stuart with the
customs officers mt the port of New
York. Under the caption, "An I'm
fortunate Occurrence. il says edi-
torially:
1.-The trouble about the payment
OF import dnties on Mrs. Stuart s
baggage, which arose few uays
ago at the New York custom house,
were out of misunderstanding of
the law, and the Government ofIi-
cialS were duly convinced that there
had been no effort on the part of
Mr.. and Mrs. Staurt to have the
baggage entered without paving
every cent that was legally due on
1t. Ii seems that there has been a
change in the law and the reguIa-
tions OF which Mr.. Stuart had not
been notified, although he had
made inquiries at the American con-
sula;e i'm Paris or course no
body in this part OF the country be-
lieved that Mr.. Stuart had attempt
ed 10 defraud the Government out
of any OF its dues. "
Ii is n genuine tribute TO the Dem
ocratIc nominee in The Ninth when
the newspaper champion of the Re
publican nominee gracefully testifies
TO the high personal character OF the
man that the paper is opposing po-

THE COMET AND LOCUSTS IN

not only on account Of the visit of

Gusts are swarming, and the woods
and fields are filled with them and
their plaintive Pharaoh" fills the

due to their ravages. The old folks
say that there is trouble brewing.
The locusts have the letter CIV" dis
tinctly marked on each wing. On a
short visit to Botetourt last week the

A Fortune In Alfalfa

Alfalfa is king with Captain J. f..
Jack, of King George county. 1t is
estimated that his crop, gathered
from 400 acres of land, some of il on
~ one and two years growth, will
bring him in not less than S44, 600 in
1910, says the Richmond Times
Dispatch.
Almost unbelievable as this show
ing is, ii is pointed out by the De
partment o: Agriculture that it is
only a sample OF what can be done
ON thousands of other Virginia
farms. a little capital and little
intelligence are all that is necessary.
Captain Jack estimates that POO
acres OF the tract, which has now
borne alfalfa for three years, will
count six tons 10 the acre. The re-
mainder OF 250, most OF which is
bearing the crop for the first time.
will, it is thought, yield not less
than four tons 10 the acre.
Captain Jack has already sold n
large part OF the output ut $50 "A ton.
and expects TO average not penny
less than this sum- vita n good
chance OF getting more for n portion.

tai OF S44, coo.

and in Utah.
He finds the Virginia soil fully as
we'll adapted n that of the Pacific
SLOPE while the low initial price OF
land, with other advantages, make
ii far better Investment.
Captain Jack first sowed the land
with corn the blowing DESTROYING
the weeds. Next he planted Crimson
clover, which he plowed under,
again choking the weed growth. Al
ter putting in ton of lime To the
acre, he inoculated the ground with
alfalfa. During the first year cIess

To The market. The cress entirely
disappears with the second moving.
After the first year more lime is
added, and then the land is left TO

growth of the grass is small, but if

1t is the purpose of the department
to shortly issue a bulletin on the cul-

POLITICAL NEWS
OF WASHINGTON

~ kAhhkt ~ W
Not merely the average employee
of the government, but the highes [
officials, are afraid To give newspaper
men information as 10 what is going
on. Employees are being made tn
feel that they owe no fidelity TO
the public, but that they are mere
personal servants of the coterie of
men now in charge OF the govern
ment.
AS a result of the discharge of
Pinchot, CLAWS, Kerby and other
interior department employees, the
average government worker today
feels that ii is worth his position To
discuss even matters of public record
with newspaper man

tic as this in the way of press CEN
sorship has ever been attempted be-

Republicans appear reluctant To

eminent expenditures in relation TO
the cost Of living.
But one thing is certain. Govern
ment does not pick up these hun
dreds of millions OF dollars i'm the
street. This money comes out OF
somebody's pocket. Unlike city and
state governments, the national gov
renment has but one way OF raising
revenue to meet expenses, aud that
is by taxing things eaten, worn or
used by the people. Hence it is that
increased cost OF living is marching
hand in hand with increased Repub-
iican eXtIavaganceS.

This question brought forth a gen

man in the meeting expressed his
opinion. Practically the unanimous
opionion was that the temperance ques-
tion is a local question for each coun-
ty to handle and determine for itself.
This. it was pointed out, is in line with
republican doctrine on the question.
1t is a question they said, with which
the state candidates have nothing to
do. It does not enter into their case at
all. It a question for each county to

question when it votes on it's legisla-

It is believed that this analysis OF
the situation will apepal to the peo

would undoubtedly resent any attempt
on the part of the state candidates tc
