aders have come out in the open at last
But it will do you no good. Ms the re-
suits at the election in November will
disclose. Your party will still be mi
nority party in the Ninth, and it will be
disclosed that thousands of white men
have been shut off from the ballot box
oy the suffrage laws which you boast
fully claim MIR. Stuart helped make.
But our ecstatic contemporary cannot
now see the truth while giving its Stu
art seance. Through its blurred and
non-penetrating mental telescope it thus
reads the disposition of our people:
'The mountain people will flock to
him as loyalty and lovingly as ever
Scotch Highlanders did to Stuart name
and banner. They love him and are
ready to follow him and this Stuart
loves them because he is one of them.
Together they will make fight such as
the district never has known"
We have no doubt but that the Demo-
cratic Highlanders and the Democratic
Highbinders of the Ninth district will
flock loyalty and lovingly to the Stuart
name and banner; but the trouble is
that there are not enough of these to
overcome the Republican host that will
loyalty and lovingly flock to the Repub
lican standard borne by the hands Of
Campbell Bascom Slemp.
The Scotch Highlanders fiocked loyal-
ly and lovingly to the Stuart name and
banner on the 10th of April, 1746. at
CullOden; but there were not enough of
them, and the Stuart name and the
Stuart banner, with Charles Stuart the
Pretender, on that memorable day re-
ceived a crushing defeat. Thus ended
the Stuart cause in Scotland and En-
gland. On the sth day of November.
1910, the Stuart name and banner will
meet with another Culloden. And as at
CullOden in Scotland, SO at this Cullo-
den, the mountain district of Virginia
green mounds and monumental cairns
will be erected to mark the spots where
the battle was fiercest and where your
Stuart and his loyal. loving supporters
will lie buried. The Times says:
"Stuart's coming home, men. He's
on the sea- And Stuart's going to win,
men. And now all together.
Yes, Stuart's coming home, Republi-
cans. He's on the sea of trouble. COM
ing home to meet his political death.
And now all together, Republicans, and
we'll give another Culloden to the Stu
art name and banner.

SLEMP IS ALL RIGHT,

So the people of the Ninth Virginia
district may well begin to ask them
selves what possible good Mr.. Slemp.
their present representative, could do
for them, or anybody else, in Demo-
cratic house. He doesn't do much in a
Republican house. He is heard of rare
ly. He is an alien from the other South
ern members and outside the circle of
the Northern men. In a Democratic
house he would be less than nothing. He
couldn't have a rural free delivery route
DETECTED half a mile. Roanoke Times
BY such illogical and inconsistent ar
guments as these the Roanoke Times is
trying 10 secure the election of a Demo-
crat from district that is Republican
to the core. 1t is demagogic and false
appeal to our people to do themselves
an injury. If the reasoning of the
Times In this instance is sound, why has
it and its brilliant editor heretofore
plead with the people of the Ninth to
send Democrat to the House of Rem
resentatives when that House was
strongly Republican and there was
Republican President, with the Senate
also strongly Republican?
And we would like to have the Times
tell us what the nine Democratic Con-
gressmen from Virginia have done and
are now doing. Many of them have
been members for years, and the only
thing they have done in the present
Congress that was of peculiar interest
and benefit to the people of Virginia
was when they united with Mr.. Slemp
to prevent the placing of certain raw
materials on the free list and clamored
for protection for various Virginia pro-
ducts and enterprises. Make a show
down, Mr.. Times, of the record of your
own Congressman before you so unfair
ly assail the record of the only Republi-
can Congressman from Virginia.
1t may be true that Mr.lSlemp is an
alien from the other Southern members.
but that is nothing to his discredit, as
the hide-bound Bourbon Democracy of
the South would ALLEVIATE itself from
anyone who is Republican from the
South. 1t is not true, however, that
Mr.. Slemp is outside the circle of North
srn men. No man in the House is more
respected and esteemed by the Repub-
lean members from the North than
Mr.. Slemp. He is an active, energetic
md efficient member, and has done
What he promised his constituents to
10. Have your Democratic Congress-
men done the same? We remember
hat they were elected upon a platform :
hat declared against protective tariff :
md that put lumber on the free list.
Yet, most of these members and the two I
Democratic Senators repudiated that !.

Mr.. Slemp is all right. He has faith q

id vote of confidence and approval at :

ADOPTION OF ENGLISH CUSTOM

WOULD DISPLACE CANNON

Although everything seems extremely
peaceful just now. there is big trouble
ahead in the House of Representatives.
The row isn't over yet by long shot.
The pot is still on the fire and the fire
is still red hot.
Just at present there is infinite posi-
bihty of mischief In the fact that those
insurgents who combined with the demo-
Gratis and forced the enlargement Of the
committee on rules. but who later voted
against the Burleson resolution to depose
Speaker Cannon. are hearing from their
home districts in most uncomplimentary
terms. They realize that they must do
something to offset this pro-Cannon senti-
ment with which they are charged, de-
spite their activity in securing a revision
of the rules SO they are trying to renew
the combination OF insurgents and demo-
Gratis. If they do succeed in putting
through their tentative plan Uncle Joe
Cannon will be removed from office and
Asher Kinds, parliamentarian of the
House, will he elected Speaker.
1t doesn't seem to be matter of gen
eral knowIedge-although true by the
book, just the Same-that the Speaker OF
the House of Representatives need not
be a member of that body. With this one
big fact before them the fnsurgent re-
publicans-including the nine who voted
to depOse the Speaker, and all the rest
who didn't, but who now wish they had
are urging that the House divorce itself
from the idea that the Speaker must be
a member of the dominant party. They
suggest the adoption of the English prop
osition of a presiding officer who Is an
expert parliamentarian and nothing else,
and who has no power to advance or re-
tard legislation.

NO DAM IN BOX CANYON.
Abandonment Of Project Opens Way
for Railway Extension.

GLOBE, Ariz.. March 26.-Word came
from Washington today that the Interior
Department had held to be impracticable
the construction Of a reclamation dam
in the Box canyon OF the Gila river be-
low San Carlos.
This ruling by Secretary Balli"rer is
Of Importance. It virtually assn g the
grant Of permission to the Ariz nj east
ern railroad to extend its projected line
through this canyon.
Application for right of way, made to
the Interior Department, was opposed by
a reservoir company, which sought to
constrct the dam.
1t was stated at the Interior Depart
ment last night that no decision had yet
been rendered in connection with the
proposition to construct a reclamation
dam in the Box canyon of the ella river.
The matter it was said, was still under
consideration.
The department has received applica-
tions for two rights Of way in the Gila
river, one relating to a reservoir and the
other to a railroad. Both applications
were under consideration, 1t was said,
and no decision had yet been reached.

Woman Has Disappeared.

When Albert was held in 5000 bail,
charged with abduction. and the case put
over for a further hearing. Mrs. Wolter
had asked the girl if she was going back
TO the apartment Albert had vacated for
her belongings
mo, no. she says the girl replied.
I'm never going back there again. It's
too CHASTITY"
In the meantime the woman has dis
appeared, entirely. When her compan-
ion was arrested the police had no sns-
picion of a murder and did not feel they
had sufficient evidence to hold her as an
accomplice in what was then supposed a
simple abduction.
After three hours of cross-examination
a detective said tonight that Wolter had
made no confession. The examination
was Immediately continued with stem
ographer in attendance.
He does not know yet, said the de-
tective, that Ruth Wheeler's body has
been found and identified. We are hold
ing that fact for more effective use
later.
The police do not believe that the
woman whom they know Kate Miller
and who lived with Wolter helped to
commit the murder. SO far as is now
known she was at work on Thursday In
the laundry where she was employed.

Partisan Not Required.

There is no reason at all" said Rep
resentative Poindexter of Washington,
why the Speaker of the House of Rep
resentatives should be political
partisan and a member Of the dominant
party. We should achieve a great for
ward step in obtaining representative
government for the American people IT
we got away from this idea. 1 have
heard a great deal of discussion of late
as to the advisability of deposing
Speaker Cannon and eiecting Asher
Kinds. the parliamentarian of the
House. in his place. l think this would
be a splendid course of action, and
am highly favorable to it.
This initial reform which We have
accomplished must be followed by
others The whole trouble in which the
House finds itself is caused by the join
ing of the power of the Speaker with
that of the leader Of the majority.
The English plan of having an expert
parIiamentarian instead of a politician
as a presiding officer is the only cor
rect one. AS long as We select a party
leader as Speaker, just so long Will we
have partisan and unfair rulings from
the chair

resolution the other day 1T was a vote
