John Gibson, 40, mail carrier nc

miles south of Barboursville, is be-
lievcd To have been the victim Of
toul play. aud two strange negroes

Gibson had been carrvino tho

spending much OF his time fishing
in the Guyan river near his home.
Friday evening he went home as
usual, and left shortly afterwards,

ward the point where his boat was
tied about three hundred wards
above the house. Two strange ne
groes were seen going up the track
shortly afterward anl upon Gibson

ed the murder theory. The last
seen of him by any one was as he
was walking south along the line of
the Guyan Valley railroad. His
boat was found at .Barboursville
Saturday morning.
When Gibson left the house Fri
day evening he had between S75
and 800 IN his pockets and it is
this fact, coupled with the presence

created the murder theory.

EDITOR ADVANCE:
In looking over the columns of
the Wayne News | noticed an article
signed cd" He says that he can't
hear anything talked about by his
republican friends but the county
court. Why shouldn't it be talked
about? Look at the financial sta's-
ment as published in the Wayne
News and then wonder. While
men have been trying to kill the
present road system, they certainly
have slain themselves. We, as we'll
as the school children, know that the
county court didn't make the laws
governing the roads or the forest
fires. But while this be true, oh.
how badly they have been abused.
Mr.. cd" also says the Republican
party has been in power for fifty
years and wants TO know what 1t has
done. Now, Mr.. "D," that Is easy
In the first place it has made out of
the United States of America the
best nation in the world In the
second place, it has better laws GOV.
erning this nation than has any 9TH
er country in the world.
My Uncle ''D" also has the negro
to throw up to the Republican par
ty. Gosh! he doesn't know the war
is over. lie certainly has forgotten
the southern states, where the Dem
ocratic party gets most Of its votes.
There are not as many white vot.
ers in the south as the Democratic
party gets over the Republican par
ty there, let alone the number of
negro votes it has to have to equal
the vote cast by the Republican par-
ty. Then he says negro to the re-
publicans. Gee whiz.
lie also says that every time you
voted for a republican president you
voted the negro nearer your door.
Now, every honest thinking man
knows that statement is unjust, un-
fair and untrue. If my Uncle "T"
will only call to remembrance the
fact that the Republican party is
the one that fought 10 get the negro
not only from his door but also out
of bis house, while the other party
fought to keep him in his house, on
his farm and at his door. Also, i'll
my Uncle "Y Y D'' will remember
the fact that when that great army
Of negroes was disfranchised in
North Carolina, the Democratic
party lost over halt Of its ma
jority in that state and so would
be the case III all the other southern
states if the negroes we're dislran-
chised.
1t IS true that the negroes in the
north mostly vote the Republican
ticket; bat then there are compare
lively few negroes in the north when
you think Of the millions in the
south, where they vote democratic.
Uncle sd" sometimes gets in an
awful way and calls the negro
baboon; also a monkey. Now, / |
want to ask him which is the most
honorable, TO be a baboon-or a !
said TO be man--that makes
monkey or baboon out of himself? |
But, pshaw! "bug juice" will make |
a man go wild sometimes because !

ROOSEVELT'S
POLITICAL CREED
Comes Out in West and
Lines Up With the Pro-
qreSSiVeS.


Osawatomie, Kan, Aug. 3l.-In
clear and emphatic fashion Theo-
dore Roosevelt announced his po-
litical creed here today. 1t was a
creed of progressive republicanism.
1t aligned him definitely with the
progressive movement within the
party as whole. 1t placed HIM on
record as an advocate of some poll
cies which find favor with the in
surgents, and as an opponent of ev-
cry especial interest,"" which he
believes exercises sinister infiu.
ence upon the affairs of the people.
Colonel Roosevelt declared him
self in favor of wide increase in
the power Of the national govern
ment, so that it might assume great
er activity in control of corporations
and working out the policies which
he believes should be adopted. He
declared'for the .'new nat;onalism. "
as he termed such an increase in
governmental power.
Colonel Roosevelt characterized
the issue of today as the "struggle
Of free men to gain and hold the
right of self-government as against
the special interests, who twist the
methods Of free government into
machinery for defeating the popu-
lar will"

Flag to Flag Contest.

Growing in Importance and proportions
every day the international hag-to-Hag
contests between the United states and
Mexico are attracting widespread and
merited attention from manufacturers,
dealers. private owners and clubs
throughout the country. Wldened in
scope. variety and attractiveness. this
banner series OF events Will prove a po-
tent factor In the west and in the rich
republic OF Mexico. The combined con-
tests will be held In connection with the
centennial celebration OF Mexico in 1910.
The flag-to-flag contest was originally
conceived by G. a, Wahlgreen OF Denver:
who planned an endurance and reliability
run from Denver TO the City OF Mexico
for handsome trophy of his own offer

Dlaz In person received Mr. Wahlgreen
and the pathfinderss. who bore letters OF
greeting and good feeling TO the ruler of
Mexico from Governor Shafroth of Colo
RADIO and Governor Curry of New Mexico.
Then the thousands Of motoring en-
thuslasts OF the great state Of Texas
urged upon the management OF the con-
test 10 change the route through ANA
rillo, San Antonio and 10 cross the bor-
der at Eagle GaSS. Inc Amarillo ana
San Antonio clubs undertook the work OF
making a pathnnding trip from the boz
der through these towns Into Mexico
where the original route was later
joined The International club of San
Antonio, of which the most prominent
citizens OF both republics are members
was especially active.
Closely following the resurveying OF
the route came the announcement OF the
centennial celebra ton In Mexico in 1910
1t was then considered advantageous to
postpone the 1ag-to- flag competition In
order to make il part OF the Mexican
festivities. and so TO promote further the
era OF good feeling between the two
countries.
With this plan for holding over the
contest. the American manufacturers
who had contemplated entering. were
most heartily in accord. They felt that
they would scarcely be able to supply
the home demand for cars just now
while In another season they might be
able to consider the Mexican market
