TESTIFY AGAINST MAYOR

The third day Of the trial Of Mayor
Cutchin, of Roanoke, for malfeasance
in office was favorable to the prosecu-
ton.
Maggie Ferguson, a negro woman,
recently convicted and given eight
years in the penitentiary for harborlng
a white girl, was one Of them. Her
accusations against the Mayor were
gross.
The evidence given by Wei lsom was
not so startling as anticipated. The
woman, a notorious character, is the
zone which gave the Mayor furniture
and rugs and who paid for a diamond
ring he purchased. The woman admit
ted having done this, saying they were
for attorneys fees.
An ex-policeman testified that he saw
Mayor Cutchin at the house of the
woman late one night dancing a two
step.

CONGRESSMAN JONES
SPEAKS At FARMvlLLE

Congressman Jones at. Farmville
Thursday in his speech declared that
nobody knows better than Judge
Keith of the attempts made by the
machine politicians to control the
election OF judges. He said that at
the last election Of all of the judges
of the Supreme Court of Appeals an
effort was made to give Judge
Keith, the president, a short term
and another member of the court
the long term, and Judge heith,
becoming cognizant OF this iact' go.
his friends to defeat the effort. ii
Judge Keith. he said. entertains now
any better opinion of the poliilcal
machine. which dominates the AFFAIR
of Virginia, than he expressed wheh
this plot was Matched to give him q
short term. he is either OF very
forgiving disposition or his memory
is short
The above expression came follow
ing the repetition of the charge re-
Gently made in Richmond that those
desiring positions. either appointlv'
by the Governor, or elective by the
Legislature. felt it necessary to ap-
ply either in person or through
their friends for Senator Martin
Endorsement. He denied that he hac
made an attack on the members oil
the Virginia judiciary. many Of
whom are among his Oldest and best
friends, but declared that it is the
political system which he has at
tackled. a system~which seeks to de
grade the judiciary, and would de
stroy It's independence. which is
disgrace to any civilized community
and which to me is absolutely in
tolerable.
A large crowd heard Congressman
Jones.
He defended himself against th
charge that he had neglected hi
public duties in making his canvass
for the Senate. and denied that h'
had missed a vote on a single i'm
portant measure. His address GOV
cred the points made by him in hi
speeches elsewhere i'm the state.

CONGRESSMAN JONES
AND FREDERICKSBURG
To The Free Lance

To The Free Lance:
Without intending 10 detract enc JOt
or one little from the deserts OF any
body, the winter. for one. desires 10 eX-
press his grateful appreciation Of what
Congressman Jones has done for thu
city and our river.
Mr.. Jones can be credited. II Is es-
timated. with $4,000 Tor the BOule-
ward. S60, 900 for our pOstOihce building
and $50, 600 for the Mercer monument,
making the grand total Of 500, 0OJ foI
Fredericksburg alone.
Also by Mr. Jones efforts our fivei
appropriation has been Increased IRON
SIS. O0 appropriated 10y each succeed
ing Congress to more than $3.50. 100 an
nually. which Is continuous for every
succeeding year. and this has been go
| ing on for Nears, which would carry the
total of these appropriations up in the
millions
Mr.. Jones has also been, - everyone
knows, an active, fearless and consist
ent Democrat. Never falterlng he has
been the man put forward 10 meet the
Republicans and he has been called on
TO make charges, supported by facts,
which weaker and timld Democrats
would not dare do.
Mr.. Jones had the courage to vote
! for a measure that meant millions Of
dollars in business for Virginia. Refer
ence is made to his vote tor i measure
relating to our Merchant Marine. the
effect Of which, had it carried, would
have been to give Virginians the ad-
vantage Of the means Of shipping eX-
port freight and taking passage abroad
at Norfolk, as this measure required
all foreign going steamers carrying
United States mail to stop at certain
seaports, Norfolk being one. There
was no subsidy in this bill. though ms
enemies try to make it that.
The success Of Mr.. Jones in his fight
for Senate would mean that the First
district would have United States
Senator and a Congressman to its credit
in our National Congress-.
Our gratitude for fayors done. our
district pride in having tie man Tor
this high place and the chance to put
him there, and our duty 10 our district
and this section of Virginia, should
make every loyal and true son Of the
First Congressional district vote for
Honorable William A. Jones.
After twenty years in Congress Mr..
Jones stands out in bold relief as
clean man. an upright and loyal patriot,
a statesman whose record is as good as
pure citizenship, consistency and right
conduct can make a record.
Now is the chance for the First dis
trict. We should all rally to its favor
tie son, William A. Jones.
Loyal Son of the First District.
