THEIR DAYS ARE DONE

The Georgia Democrats have start
ed the ball rolling in the South, and
other states will likely keep it going
as opportunity is afforded. Two con-
gressmen were recently defeated for
reelection, one OF whom had seI\ ed
his state many years in Washington.
They were turned down because of
their vote on the tariff schedule.
These gentlemen were elected on a
Democratic platform which declared
for free lumber, hides, etc, and Their,
afterw ards voted with Uncle Joe
Cannon, Aldr!ch and Co., for lust
the opposite thing, and the boys re-
membered ii a! home. And there are
a few in Virginia who should be re-
membered also. Mr.. Slemp, of the
Ninth District, is in the same pew,
and will hear sonnet hing drop abou,

THE ROANOKE TIMES WRONG

In an editorial sometime ago, the
Roanoke Times, in discussing the
four amendments To the Constitu-
tion TO be voted on this fall, says in
part: 1.-The next amendment pro-
poses 10 take the appointment OF
commissioners OF the revenue from
the circuit Judges aud give ii TO the
people. This should be voted down,
also" Comm issionerS OF the revenue
are now elected by the people. They
will be so elected next year. The
question is not, whether they shall
be elected or.appointed, but whether,
in either case they may succeed
themselves in Office or not. II this
proposed amendment carries the fell
lows elected next year may succeed
themselves Indefinitely in Office. II
