ACT OF COURT QUESTIONED

Arguments were begun in the Alex
andria Corporation court Wednesday
afternoon on a rule issued recently to
show cause why certain deposltors IN
the Lovingston branch of the Virginia
Safe Deposit and Trust Corporation
should not be adjudged in contempt for
failure to return funds alleged to have
been withdrawn after the manager OF
the branch bank knew that the concern
had been declared insolvent. Judge Bar
lev was confronted with the contention
by counsel that he had acted without
authority in placing the trust corpora
ton in the hands OF receivers. IL Is con-
tended that r. Lee Camden, the mana
ger of the Livingston branch. allowed

his wife, Mrs. +. II. Kidd, amounting
to 81, 1888

burg. appeared for Kidd ard his wife;
Attorney A. X. Long. Of Nelson county,
for Camden; Commonwealth Attorney
S. G. Brent for the State. and former
Judge j. K. M. Norton for the receivers.
Mr.. Coleman, in an argument lasting
several hours, declared that court OF
equity could not wind up the affairs Of
a corporation unless one-fourth OF the
stockholders asked for its dissolution. In
the case of the Virginia Safe Deposit
and Trust Corporation. he said, receiv-
ers had been appointed by Judge Bar
lev at the instance of the directors, who
held only one-sixteenth Of the stock.
Judge Barley took the matter under
consideration.

A DREAM OF MY MOTHER
1t is midnight and the household
Is wrapt in slumber deep,
While | alone in my room
Lie silently and weep

II is midnight and the household
Is wrapt in slumber deep,
While alone in my room
Lie silently and weep
over Joys which have forever flown
And loved ones gone before,
Whose faces oft think ! see;
But their voices never more
viii cheer my sad and lonely heart
As in the days Of ten years ego.
Last night my darling mothers voice
whispered words of cheer.
Babe me to tell her children to battle
bravely on.
Not to let one thought of fear enter
her children's trusting hearts,
Or cause one fallen tear.
Her voice like sweetest music
Sank deeply in my heart;
tried in vain TO sleep,
But far beyond control
Did that tender voice of mother,
My dreamless thoughts unfold.
The hours passed so lonely
When all around are sleep,
| can hear her foot steps,
Her face | cannot see.
A. last a dreamy sleep is mine
A happy home ! see.
While mother is encircled
RIn the arms of her two children, NJ.
and +.
All are here around US,
Our cherished ones 80 dear,
No aching hearts, no sorrow,
All is happiness and cheer.
Alas. have only dreamed,
Wishing the waking hours could prove
Our dear home what il seemed to be.
Then over me steals a memory,
My poor heart is so sad.
To think she has gone from US.
And we cannot get her back again.
By her daughter,

the battlefield at Bull Run he will travel
over the same old turnpike that thous-

Much Of the ride will be over the road
used by Gen. McDowel's soldiers. when

and they fled back toward Washington.

southwest Of Washington, and the
President will be able to make the

The Senate Democrats declined
last week to be used as a cat 's-paw
by the Insurgents and with the eX-
ception of three of their number
Messrs. Bailey, Thornton and Sim
mons, voted solidly against the Cum
Minis amendment to the reciprocity
bill. allowing free meats to come IN
from Canada. 1t is well understood
that the Democratic party is in favor
of as large a measure of free trade
as the revenues of the country will
admit of, but the country also un-
derstands that Senator Cummns and
his insurgent allies are intent on kill
ing the Canadian trade pact and
that his amendment was not offered
in good faith, but simply for the
purpose of killing the reciprocity
bill. Had the Democrats been SIM
pie enough to fall into this trap and
voted to amend the bill Canada
would have promptly rejected the
measure in its new shape and the
country would have secured neither
reciprocity or free meats.

THE CITIZEN AND POLITICS

Few men have had larger polltlca'
experience than Champ Clark. Speak
or of the House Of Representatives.
and therefore few are better quail
fed to discuss political conditions IN
the United States than he is. Speak
ing at a tremendous mass meeting
on the Million Dollar Pier at Allan
tic City Sunday night, Mr.. Clark
made an earnest appeal for the more
active participation of the better
class of citizens in American pollt-
cal life. The speaker in the course
of his address made the following
striking statement:
"There is no room in the United
States for a pessimist or an ldler, ne
declared at the outset. ANY man who
misses two general elections should oe
disfranchised. Our forbears did not
fight so We could sit at home. lheS
wanted MS to have our own say al eiec-
tons. That's what the scrap was
about. Ii had one prayer that was
sure TO be answered. it would lie that
every citizen should acquire SUFFICIENT
education TO read his own ballot ana
cast il as an American citizen should.
"Hoodlums run nine tenths OF our
elections. and the hOOdlum who goes
out and votes is a better man than the
citizen who fails to east his ballot. III
is the duty Of every Christian citizen 10
take hand in politics. These lsir'
faced citizens who say they are 100
busy to enter politics are bad citizens.
Coming as the above does from
one of the leading public men Of this
country, it should produce a pro-
found impression and should cause
the average man to stop and ask
himself whether he is doing his duty
as a citizen. Here in Virginia there
has been a sad lack of interest for
many years in national affairs and
numbers Of our voting population
have failed to inform themselves on
governmental questions of great
public interest. Many of them have
failed to go to the polls and have
been content to remain passive spec
tators of public affairs, State and
national. 1t is from this lethargy
that Mr.. Clark seeks to awaken the
better citizen and in his efforts he
has our sincere wishes for his sue
cess.
