Mr.. Bryan'S Part In 1t

Bryan is going to figure as a big
factor in the Democratic councils next
year; and Democrats everywhere
might just as well make up their
minds to the inevitableness of the
condition. lie will not aspire to the
Democratic nomination. lie will not
be nominated. But no one man in the
nation will prove as powerful force
in shaping the action of the national
convention as will he. We venture
also to say that the active, earnest
cooperation of no one American
Democrat in behalf of the Democrat
ic ticket, will more certainly insure
it's election than that of Mr.. Bryan.
Even step further we 90, and avow
the belief that with Bryan sulker in
the fight, or with Bryan outside the
Democratic breastworks, the triumph
of Democracy at the polls will be

Scientific Road Work

In connection with the proposition
to secure government aid to road

day that he favored n provi so tina. no
State should be a rccipiet unless it
had regularly organized highway
department, presided over by men
who knew their business. Further, he
would have it in the law that no
county could secure any part of such
fund except under the direction of the
State department
The Governor believes that much
money is wasted through ignorance.
He has himself seen men dig bitches
which could not be reached by water
until it had first run up hill about a
foot. The trouble. he believes, in in
the want of employment of trained
men to supervise construction, so that
the details are not left to laborers.

RADICAL REFORMS

One of the finest and most practical
speeches yet made on the Good Roads
question, was made by ex-senator
Lassiter, of Petersburg, before the
recent National Good Roads Congress.
fiin7t,easaond.
Senator Lassiter said that the con-
victs should be made build the roads
of the state. He advocated the sale of
the penitentiary in Richmond, and
the establishment of ten state farms
and prisons-one in each congression-
al district, no renewal of the contract
with the shoe company, at the peni-
Tertiary, and said many other valuable
and instructive things.
AT first glance the plan proposed of
abolishing the penitentiary at Rich
mond, seems feasible and the thing to
do. Federal aid in road making was
endorsed by Mr.. Lassiter, as it was
also by the Road Congress before
which he spoke. The address should
be published in pamphlet form. and
given wide circulation.

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE

An exchange says that DIR. King,
Supt. of the Asylum, at Marion, ere
news his fight" begun sometime ago,
90 for the establishment of a separate
institution for the care of inebriates"
and drug fiends. He says that liquor
and drugs so paralyzes the will as to
render it almost impossible to help
this class of people sent to the asy-
lum. He adds that the spread of
tuberculosis and pelagra is spreading
to an alarming extent in the hospital
ut Marion. Suppose the State should
license the manufacture and sale of
tuberculosis and pelagra germs, what
would the world say? Every effort is
being made to stamp out, not only
these diseases, but the cause, root
and branch. Doesn't it look like n
foolish, unwise if not wicked, policy
to permit and encourage the manufac-
ture and sale of any commodity whose
use necessitates the building of great
institutions to counter act? What was
it Puck said about 1--WE mortals?"

IMPROVING THE COWS MILK

One of our subscribers says that
his cows give much richer milk when
fed on corn meal than when fed on
bran and ordinary chop. He thinks
so, but the old notion that the quality
of cows milk can be improved by
feeding has long ago been found to
be erroneous. An eminent authority
says, cit is impossible to feed fat
into the milk of COW in normal con-
dition. The quantity but not the
quality, can be influenced by feed
ing" We have frequently called
attention to this fact therefore,. 1t is
important to have the right breed or
kind of COW. It's in the blood not the
feed.

BEGINNING OF A NEW ERA

The visit and addresses of the two
distinguished women here on Tuesday
night, on the question of Woman
Suffrage, marks the beginning of an
epoch in the history of Tazewell and
Southwest Virginia. The questio n
must be met. 1t cannot be ignored
The fact that few people or many
people, as to that, turn the cold
shoulder, will make little difference.
The question cannot be dismissed with
a sneer born of prejudice or ignor-
ance.
Governor Mann predicts that women
will be voting in this state within
five years. Can anyone furnish sim
gle, good reason why the most up
right, intelligent and in some cases
the wealthiest citizens of the State
should not be given voice in the
affairs of their own government?
Let us have the reason in writing,
and it shall be published.

Children Injured
Ordinary Cathartics And Pills
And Harsh Physic Cause
Distressing Complaints

You cannot be over-careful in
the selection of medicine for child
rem. Only the very gentlest bow
ell medicine should ever be given,
except in emergency cases. Or
binary pills, cathartics and pur-
gatives are apt to do more ham
than good. They may cause gri-
ping, nausea and other distressing
after-effects that are frequently
alth-destroying.
We personally recommend and
guarantee Rexall Orderlies as the
safest and most dependable rem
edy, which we know, for consti-
patton and associate bowel disor-
ders. We have such absolute
faith i'll the virtues of this remedy
that we sell it on our guarantee
of money back in every instance
where it fails to give entire salts
faction, and We urge all in need
of such medicine 10 try it at our
risk.
ReXall Orderlies are eaten Just
like candy, are particularly pro-
mpt and agreeable in action, NAV
be taken at any time, day or
might; do not cause diarrhoea,
neausa, gripping, excessive loose
ness, OF other undesirable effects
They have a very mild but posi-
tive action upon the organs with
which they come in contact, APP
parently acting as regulative
tonic upon the relaxed muscular
coat of the bowel, thus over-com-
ing weakness, and aiding to re-
Store the bowels 10 moro vigorous
and healthy activity.
ReXall Orderlies commonly
completely relieve constipation,
except Of course when of a surgi-
cal character. They also tend to
overcome the necessity of con-
slantly taking laxalives to keep
the bowels in normal condition.
