STUART PRAISED
BY S|MMERMAN
Wythe County Chairman Says
Campaign Has Been One
of Education.

What has impressed me more espe-
cially about the Ninth District cam
paign.. said Colonel S. S. zimmerman,
of Wythe county, at Murphy's Hotel
last night. is It's great educational
value. Isbel:eve the mechanics and the
laborers }of the district are better In
formed than ever befor rgarding the
problems OF government.
'Thts.is due in part to the political
rallies which have been held In large
numbers and the many able addresses
and others. But the real interest OF
the worker has been aroused because OF
ECONOMIC necessity that he do some
thing. Take the men employed In In.
wages are no higher than heretofore.
and because OF the continued low price
of iron, there Is but little work for
them to do. Yet practically every
thing they buy has risen tremendo asly
In, price. They have been asking them
selves why it is that the necessities OF
NE cost them SO much while the price
of iron remains so low"
Is County Chairman.
Solonel slmmerman. who is a mem
city with Mrs. Simmerman to attend a
social AFFAIR at the Executive Mansion.
He is chairman of the Democratic
party In his county and a former
Hstipeit u tue rouse OF EDeleSatesE
L have known Mr.. Stuart for many
years. said Colonel Simmerman. We
were In college together. I have al.
ways admired him and think he will
make a splendid representative III
Congress. That Is where the Ninth
District is going to put him.
AS to my county, we are going to
cut the normal large Republican ma
jority down to very small figures.
While It would seem unreasonable to
say. that Stuart will carry the county,
such result Is not an impossibility."
