I'm Favor of Statewide Prohibi-
tion

The Baptist General Association, at
its state meeting, held in Roanoke,
last week, unanimously endorsed
statewide prohibition, and passed res
olutions asking Congress to pass a
law prohibiting the shipment of liq-
uor into dry territory. The statement
was made by one speaker that the
Baptists hold the balance of power in
Virginia. If this be true, the Baptist
brethren can vote ont the traffic the
next chance they get, and if they
don't, should be held responsible for
| its continuance.

Thinks Stuart Was Elected

Certainly Henry C. Stuart is
elected to Congress from the Ninth
Virginia district, and there is not the
least doubt in my mind about it,"
said Chas. w. Bondurant, of st.
Charles, Lee county, Va, a we'll
known coal operator, to a Herald
Courier reporter last Thursday after
noon. Certainly" Mr.. Bondurant
said, al don't see but one thing for
the canvassing board to do and that
is to give him the certificate of cleo
tion for if there ever was plain, open,
bold fraud committed along with ir-
regularities in an election it certainly
was evident in the Ninth district at
the recent election. Mr.. Bonhudu-
rant thinks that the Board should
throw out Smyth county and precincts
here and there over the district. He
alleges that at Stonsga, in Wise
county, a we'll known Republican,
who was neither a judge or clerk of
the election, was allowed to enter
the voting booths and mark ballots
for negroes and foreigners. He claims
that at one particular precinct in lie,
county, where he lives, there were
eleven more men voted than were
registered and he understands tina
the same thing was done at Eas
Stone Gap, and at other place
throughout the district. The lie,
county man is Of the opinion that i
Mr.. Stuart gets what is coming t
him, justly and fairly, he will b
given the certificate of election. =

BIG SPEAKERS FOR
THE CORN SHOW
Experts From V. p. 1. Will
Lecture at Corn Show Here
on December 18th.

The corn show, set for December
18th, promises now to be an occasion
of more than ordinary interest. There
should and will be, fine exhibit of
Tazewell's splendid crop - an eye
opener. The exhibit will be held in
the Court House, beginning promptly
at 10 o'clock. Professor Hutchinson,
and Prof. Lawson, of the V. P. L.,
have agreed to be present, and Judge
the corn and make addresses. The la
dies will be present. The farmers
wives and daughters, as we'll as the
ladies of the town will attend.
The Court House will be made
comfortable, and a pleasant and pro-
fitable day will be spent. Besides the
addresses of the gentlemen named,
short addresses will made by far
mers present, giving their experience
how they did it, etc. The farmers
of the county should make this a pro-
fitable meeting. AS they are the ones
most directly concerned and for whose
benefit the show is held, they are ex-
pected to do all they can to make it a
big success.
THE CASH PRIZES.
Mr.. w. G.. O'Brien, editor OF the
Republican, has charge of the prize
fund, and will raise as large a fund
as possible to be proportionately di-
vided among the winners. He ought
to have a nice sum. In other towns
businesss people, have shown an in
terest in such exhibits by offering
prizes-cash, brides, knives. plows,
wagons, buggies, clothing, hats, etc.
Tazewell merchants should give their
heartiest encouragement to this i'm
portant show.

New Advertisements

Several new advertisements are
appearing, some of them for the first
time, in this paper. One is the Heinz
Cigar Company, of Roanoke. The ed
itor knows these people, and has been
in this splendid store. They have GER
tainly one of the finest cigar stores in
Virginia. and are doing fine busi-
ness. They have the patronage of
Roanoke's best trade.
II. w. Buckbee, the scotsman, Of
Rockford, H., commences his cam
paign for next springs trade. We
have bought seeds, fertilizer, ETC.,
from this house for two years, and
have never failed to get good stuff at
a reasonable price. Buckbee is all
right.
Hawkins Pharmacy, in this town,
is well known. Jim" is making
good, and his business is growing,
but he is ambitious to make it go
faster, and is taking the right steps
to accomplish this end.
The Stieff Piano people, of Lynch
burg, renew their contract. This old,
we'll known firm, has an established
reputation all over the country. The
cheapest piano is not the best, but
the best is always the cheapest, and
the Stieff Piano is certainly one of
the very best made, as all well in
formed people know.
There are other ads and announce
ments appearing for the first time,
perhaps, and all of them should be
read. Buyers will find, as a rule, the
leading merchants advertisements in
this paper.

Taft's Address to Teachers

In his address before the Virginia
Educational Conference on Wednes-
day, President Taft said:
Richmond is city that reflects
In every way the wonderful material
growth of the South and at the same
time awakens in the mind of the visi-
tor at every street corner and in
every public square an interest by its
historical associations. At every turn
there comes the local association with
Washington, Jefferson, Patrick Hen
ry, Marshall and Madison, and other
great participants in the natal strug-
gle of the republic, as well AS of
Jefferson Davis. Robert f.. Lee,
Stonewall jackson, and the other
great leaders of the Southern confed-
eracy.
CLOSELY following this thought
comes the feeling of gratitude TO God
that we are now a united nation with
the bitter prejudices of the past dis
PEELED, and able, all OF us, to accord
the proper need Of praise to the
American heroes of the past, whether
their deeds were performed and their
services needed in those early days.
when all Americans were Soined i'm a
single cause, or whether they loomed
large as leaders on either side i'm
those sad four years when brothers
were engaged against bothers i'm an
internecine strife.
l am always glad to meet men and
women who have made their profes-
sions that of teaching. In the first
place the fact that they have adopted
as their life's work the profession of
teaching is the highest proof of the
fact that they do not eXalt wealth
and material comfort above spiritual
and mental progress. They must be
content, and they must have made up
their minds TO be conented with a life
of comparative privation and an alb
sence of luxurious comfort They
have reconciled themselves To 'feasts
of reason and a flow of soul, or they
would not be teachers. They must
have determined TO find their sole
reward in watching the minds Of the
youth develop intelligence and their
souls grow in moral strength and
character under the influence of their
teachers.
In the menace TO the community,
which many have seen in the accumu-
lation of great fortunes in the hands
of few men we must be Just and
pluck from the nettled danger the
flower Of generosity and responsible
ity To the public and the recognition
of trust imposed by such great for
tunes which the last decade has made
manifest. The millions that have
been given by private donors Co the
cause of education, and especially To
education in the South, is full of en-
couragement. The donation by Mr..
Carnegie of n fund Of SIP, 900, 600 or
$14, 600, 900 with which 10 pension
meritous professors in our colleges is
doing untold good. And i sincerely
hope that by the success of this
foundation, other pension systems,
either OF State or private donation,
may be encouraged and carried into
execution in order to make comforta-
BILE the old age of those who have
given the best years of their life to
teaching and find their powers wan
ing and their earning capacity gone
with nothing to maintain them in
their old age"
