GORE SPEAKS FOR SAUNDERS.
The campaign OF Congressman
Saunders was launched yesterday in
an eloquent and comprehensive speech
by United States Senator Thomas P.
Gore, Of Oklahoma, to one OF the
most enthusiastic audiences that ever
filled Pittsylvania county Courthouse.
The Payne ldrich tariff bill was
taken up and shown to be in direct
opposition to the foundation princi-
pies OF the government, and if such
opposition was persisted in as it had
been by the republicans in the pas
it would result in disruption. The
farmer, who is the very backbone OF
tie country, was in no way benefited
by the high tariff, as he had 10 sell
his produce in the open market, but
in purchasing had to pay higher prices,
which was due to the tariff alone,
The tariff, he declared, was a burden
to the masses, but special privilege
for the classes, fostering trusts and mo-
nopolies, to which the housewife OF the
farmer paid tribute daily.
He said that every panic and every
stringency in finance had occurred un
der republican presidents with republic
can tariffs.
His tribute to Congressman Saund
ers was most complimentary, declaring
his defeat would not only be a loss tt
his district and the commonwealth
but 10 the nation.
The republicans were addressed or

Parsons, Col. ]. S. Browning and s. Il

MISSIONARY BACK FROM
THE WILDS OF CHINA
Minister Declares Iu Tribe
Loves Fighting

Among the passengers who arrived
yesterday on the liner Manchuria was
Rev. r. F. Edwards. Presbyterian
missionary from Ohio. who is returning
on account of i'll health from his sta
tion at Lienchow in the northern part
of the province of Kwangsi. This Is
one of the widest parts OF China and
on the borderland of the country in
habited by the Ius, one of the uncon-
quered tribes of China.
The Ius are big men who love fight
ing and will not permit any foreigner
to live in their mountainous country.
Edwards says that they resemble the
finest types of North American Indian
and are constantly engaged in tribal
wars. Some of the Iu children at
tended the mission school, but provec
Indifferent scholars, for the reason that
they took their education in homeo-
pathic doses and at wide intervals.
After week at school the Iu young
ster skips out to his mountain home,
and 1t may be month before the mis-
sion school sees him again
The Chinese among whom Edwards
worked were very much afraid of the
Ius. but while Edwards was there the
wild tribesmen did nothing to justify
the fear.
