Bestowed by Gods Grace

The speech delivered in Berlin
by Emperor William of Germany,
before the provincial banquet at
Koenigsberg. in which he reiterated
and emphasized his belief in the
divine mandate by which he rules,
referred to the Prussian crown as
bestowed by God, gr9ce, and not by
parliament's or peoples assemblies,
and laid lance against the present
movement for women's suffrage, is
the political sensation Of the hour.
The leading organs OF the German
press devote EXTENDED comment to
it, generally criticising the en-
peror's utteranoes.

New Rockbridge Electric Plant In
Operation

The Buena Vista Times o, last
week contained the following article
on the starting up OF the electric
plant by the Rockridge Power Com
pany.
Some time ago party Of public
spirited men, and they are not all
citizens of Buena Vista either, pur-
chased what is known as the old
Goose Neck Dam which is located
about five miles below the city and
when it was reported that they in
tended to build an electric light
plant and furnish lights and power
to the city the pessimistic ones and
those who always knock a new en-
terprise said that they couldn't
make the plant a success. But it is
success. The new concern has
enlarged the dam and built hand
some power house out Of concrete.
has installed two large dynamos
and two large sets OF wheels and
altogether. has spent about fifty
thousand dollars.
The result of their labors was
realized on Tuesday evening when
the current was turned on. The
first man to use the current was B.
F. Wagner in his barber shop and
restaurant and any one who could
have seen the lights on Tuesday
evening would know it was sue
cess. They are in position to fur
nish about seven hundred horse
power and it has nearly all been
subscribed for.
The foresight on the part OF the
company providing two SETS of
wheels and two dynamos so that
when one breaks down the cOnsum-
ers will not suffer is q very COM
mendable one.

Dixie" in Duluth

The Duluth Herald, commenting
upon the recent Hepburn incident
in connection with Dixie" says:
And 'Dixie' The man who can
hear it's rollicking strains without
a thrill, who can listen to it's dash
ing Tilt without wanting to yell. is a
man in whose veins circulates water
and not blood. Though it became
the war song Of the embattled South,
it is too inspiring tune to be the
South's exclusive possession. Let
he North hear it and cheer it, as it
hears and cheers The Star-Spangled
Banner Let it be a token of a re-
united brotherhood, OF people too
big and broad and free and gener-
GUS to hold petty grudges. Let the
bands play Dixie as often as they
may. and if churlish statesmen OBJ
ject, let them emigrate with their
musicless souls to some distant isle
where they can console each other
for the annoyance caused them by
the mutual affection of reunited
people,"

He happily lived to serve it with

definitely known that Washington
was himself to give it a fixed en-
dowment in money, and the far
greater endowment OF his immortal
name. Then, as il nothing were
lacking to complete the work OF

and IN the last year of the dying
century be was laid to rest in old

Washington AMI Lee keenly recog-
nizes the rich Significance OF this
ceremony. 1 bring to you from the
child OF Graham best years mes
sage OF pride and faith and good
will at this hour. This child is
fast approaching the statue Of full
and ripe manhood. There is the
ever p resent danger that we shall
forget the service rendered to that
institution by the Scotch-Iris h
fathers. There is the ever-pres-
ent danger that we shall put
too little emphasis upon the SER
vice of the men who founded aud
nurtured the college. and brought it
through the years of its infancy, oil
it's weakness, and OF it's obscurity
and handed il over. with all it's high
memories and traditions OF service,
to us OF this more favored genera
ton. There is the ever-present
danger that we shall forget the
days of Graham aud Baxter, of Ruff
ner and Junkin, and of scores OF
other great and good men, who
fought the good light" and saved
the institution from the fate Of hun
dreds of other institutions whose
transient careers are now known
only to history.
For myself, let me say (and, meas.
uring my words, l say iD that ]
accept the institution, founded by
William Graham, in its entire, un
broken history, from the very be
ginning TO the present time. 1t is
only IN loyalty TO the old that W,
can rightly serve the new. 1t is
only in understanding the past tina
we can correctly interpret the
present. l therefore accept the
history Of Washington and Lee il
the entire circumference, and not ir
any mere segment, of that history
accept it in its long and gracious
service under Graham and Baxter
and under Ruffner and Junkin.
accept it in its expanding power
under the Lees, father and son, anc
under William L. Wilson, of recent
memory; and, in accepting it, l put
the name of William Graham side by
side with that of Robert K. Lee.
That institution, thanks to Ora
ham, the founder, and to Washing
ton. the benefactor, and to Lee, the
rebuilder, is sufficiently great and
sufficiently strong in character, in
achievement, and in high purpose
to honor all the great names and al
the great eras that have marked and
crowned it's life.

BEN SMITH PRESTON
Young Virginian Who Upset Graft
Down In Georgia


Down In Georgia
There comes from the columns OF
q Georgia newspaper a story OF the
struggles and death of a young
Virginia writer-a student of Wash
ington and Lee University and a
member of one of the Old Domi nion S
foremost families. who had gone to
work on the staff Of the Atlanta
Georgian, and who unearthed aud
followed down one of the greatest
newspaper sensations ever pulled
off in the far South, says the Lynch
burg Advance.
The boys name was Benjamin
Smith Preston. He was grand
son OF DR.. B. NJ. Smith, for years
professor at the Union Theological
Seminary, and 4 son OF the Rev.
DR.. John A, Preston, who lived for
years in Charlotte, n. c.
After studying at the Washing
ton and Lee University, be secured
a position on the staff Of the ''Geor-
gian" and began steadily to climb
into the good graces OF his chief
He was assigned to cover the State
Capitol, and while there one day he
read a paragraph in Governor
Smith S message to the Legislature
which applied to misconduct OF war
dens who were said to be receiving
fees from the State and the lessees
thought of this sentence by many,
but young Preston, with the born
newspaper mans instinct for a
story, scented the possibilities be-
meath the words. He told the city
editor OF his idea, aud was told to
dig it out. Thrilling with the trsil
OF the great story which he knew he
was to uneal tn, the earnest youth
struck into the heart of the thing.
He got facts; he discovered evil
dence OF things which shouldn't be
allowed; in fact, the story grew un-
til Preston himself was awed by the
magnitude OF it. The Georgian saw
the possibilities and threw its great
power behind the fight. 1t demand
ed an investigation. Mems lives be-
came endangered in tie bitterness
OF the struggle, and great political
writer's flung their pens into the in
quiry. The legislative committee
found facts which made the people
OF the State shudder with repulsion
at the graft and greed which had
been sapping the capital, and the
horror OF the convict system caused
a widespread Indignation which re-
suited in final SCATTERING explo-
sion of wrath, scattering the obso-
lete and brutal custom into shreds.
Preston, mean while, flushed with
the citation of the conqueror, patient
ly and tirelessly dug into the mass
OF details surrounding the story.
But one day his heart beat too fast,
his cheeks became too flushed
within a week he was down with
typhoid. For weeks he Law at the
door OF death, and then just as his
story was bearing fruit, just as the
State was ringing with praise of the
fearless young writer who had ex-
posed gigantic system OF graft,
young Preston passed away. He
did not live to claim the laurels OF
victory in the great fight which had
been waged around his death bed
for he had succumbed to another
and more powerful enemy than a
system of graft and greed.
