BROOMSEDGE IN TAZEWELL

Some Of the fine pasture lands of
this county are rapidly becoming in
tested with broomsedge and if is
spreading from year to year, and
within a few years will spread all
over the county. 1t is practically
worthless for grazing. Cattle and
sheep will eat the young growth
very early in the spring, but it is
not to be considered at all in anv
other light than positive nuisance.
To get rid of it is not easy, from the
TACT that it propagates from the
roots, which live in the ground per-
petually, and also from the seed.
Destruction of the roots and preven-
ton of seeding are both necessary
l" rid land of the pest. Burning il
on in the spring will not help mat
ters further than perhaps to destroy
some of the seed. Cultivation of the
land In some crop requiring frequent
blowing, for few years, is the only
way 10 get rid of 1t. And this must
be done by every farmer VINO has il
ON his land, as the light seed are
easily blown from one place TO an
other.
AS rule, so the best authorities
say.the existence OF broomsedge gen.
orally indicates some deficiency i'm
the supply of plant food in tie land
where it grows, as it hourishes
most on the poorer lands, but we all
have seen 1t growing on good blue
grass lands in this section. Some
steps ought TO be taken to check its
spread In this county, as we'll as
everywhere.

Outlook:
The years have wrought their mira

The dream OF Lee and Lincoln, out

their shining task is done.
Our dead are not forgotten; we keep
vigil Ger their dust,
We sing their deeds i'm deathIess song
and hold their fame trust
Till Time, :he final Judge. shall
write a judgment that is Just.
But America, our mother Of SORROW

And To her fields of battle where the

Where wrong and right a.e MARSHAL

We follow where Americas out

And marching TO the staI-sown flag
this song of war we sing;
The sword of Lee To battIe for
America we bring,
And Jackson ) Tankers answer where
her far-blown bugles ring.
And when upon the battlefield the
victory is thine,
When high above the death OF wrong
the blazoned stars shall shine,
Look thou for us America, along the
foremost line"

Showing Up Our Bad Men"

Richmond Journal: Judge Aiken,

Monday in which the court spoke
with exceptional frankness and cour-
age on the subject OF the concealed
weapon habit.
lie said:
n daily habit of many people
i'm carrying concealed weapons is
one OF the greatest menaces To hu-
man life. With but few exceptions
Il is the practice OF towards and as
sassins, who look for an advantage.

is no necessity for it, and if il hap

Every community has its men
who habitually carry a gum" in
dividuals who are pointed out as
bad men, Of the fighting kind,
and whom il would bc best 10 leave
alone.
As matter OF cold fact, demon
strateu in thousands OF trials for
homicide, the pistol toter usually is
not lighting man in the true sense.
lie Is not man OF courage, willing
TO fairly test his mettle with an ad-
versary. On the contrary he is afraid
OF combat, for MORALLY apprehensive
OF his hide that he carries a weapon
rs blind to conceal his lack of ma
tive pluck and 10 use unfairly and
preclpitately when he is faced by n
brave man who means business.
In the language of the Danville
judge the pistol carrying habit with
lew exceptions, is the practice of
towards and assassins, who look for
an advantage, give no notice and
Kill when there is no necessity for il.

THE CHARGE CHANGED

In the beginning OF this present
campaign, and in fact i'm number
OF previous campaigns, the Republi-
can newspapers have charged that
the great sin OF the Democratic party
was the diSfrancisement OF large
numbers OF voters in the state, and
particularly OF large number of
white men in the Ninth District.
This string was harped upon until it
snapped. Some Republican enthu-
siast talked too much. and showed
that the whole charge was imagina-
~. Among other things he said that
these DISTINGUISHED men were very
mad, and proposed 10 resent such
treatment at the polls i'm Novem Der.
When asked how DISTINGUISHED vo-
tiers, who OF course had no vote.
could resent anything lat the polls
in November the righteousness Of
the charge came out. Then others
stated that through the activity Of
the workers of both parties, that
nearly every voter had been register
cd. So, again il was shown that the
charge that so many had been dis
franchised was untrue, for they wee
all, practically registered and pre-
pared 10 vote in November SO there
ii went again. Now. the slogan mas
been changed. The disfranchisinp
cry has been dropped like hot po-
tato and another substituted. 1t is
now said that the only thing against
MIR. Stuart is that the Promised to
submit the new constitution To the
people, and then voted 10 proclaim
ii, and for this doubtful act should
not be elected 10 congress this fall.
This equally llimSy and insincere
charge will likewise fail 10 the
ground. 1t is a fact, that Mr.. Stuart
went 10 RuSscll and on day when
there was large number OF peoT le
in town, called II general mass meet
ing OF all class without regard 10 no.
litical or other differences and asked
for instructions rs To their wishes.
and after laying the matter squarely
before the voters OF his county, with
out dissenting voice so far as known
Democrats and Republicans alike
declared in favor Of proclamation.
lie returned 10 Richmond and vot-
ed as his people directed. Did he do
right or not? We believe that all
fair minded people will say that
that he did, but this cry must be re-
talned and kept to the front, for.
when this goes there will be nothing
left to holler.
