Now that President Taft has
come and gone it is fitting that ex-
preston of appreciation be extend
ed to Senator Kenyon, Mayor Spar
Doe and Secretary Weston for secur-
ing the presence OF the president in
Webster City. These three gentle
men had more than anybody else to
do with getting a date for this city.
The Des Moines Capital has not
as yet issued that proclamation put
ting $40 per acre back upon the
value of Iowa land which 1t so
ruthlessly took of month or so
ago. Come, come, Mr.. Capital, fess
UP that you were only prevaricat-
Ing. You know, as you have had

People who disagree with Senator
Cummins in some things must give
him credit for forcing his amend
ment into the rate bill In the senate
couple of years ago. That amend
ment was worth millions to the peo-
pie Of the United States and but
for the mastery leadership OF SEN
ator Cummins it would not have
prevailed. When 1t comes to vital
questions between the dollar and
the man Cummins Is always on the
side Of the man and he is there for
keeps. What II he does not agree
with you upon every question? His
general course is right and his rec
ord as a whole is one Of accomplish
ments for the general welfare. And
this is. really the true test.

The Primary Results.
Wise News (Dem.)

Wise News (Dem.)
The senatorial primary is over and
the result was no other than generally
anticipated. The selection of Senator'S
Martin and Swanson as their own sue
cessors was foregone conclusion. but
the extreme lightness of the vote by
which they were nominated shows that
the people of the State have no great
love for them, and have far less conf
dence than love. The contest lust
closed is but the beginning of fight
which will end only when the Virginia
Democrats clean their own house. or
when the Republicans sweep it for
them, as they have done in Missouri.
Kentucky and Tennessee. However.
there is a scant possibility that Mr..
Swanson will read the handwriting on
the wall and face about, but it is as
hoping against hope that Mr.. Martin
will break away from his lifetime idols
and cease to serve the capitalistic in
terests. There is an old adage and true
that you can't teach an old dog new
tricks, and the saying fits the political
career of Mr.. Martin to perfection.

Two gather lilies and wade in the sweet
clover,
Shouting glad songs IN their morning
of May;
Gold are their dreams and the clouds
that float over,
And golden the future far stretching
away.
Two launch their boat for a VOYAGE of
sailing,
The bright ripples play, and the wind
is off shore;
While the red light of morning is fail
ing,
Steady and strong sails the bark-dips
the oar.
Two, hand in hand, climb over the
mountains,
Footsore and weary from tempest and
toll,
With only moment to drink from the
fountains,
Renewing their strength for tomor-
rows turmoil
Two, when the Autumn has nut on it's
glory,
Sit by the shore of the beautiful past
whose solemn waves break with a won
derful story,
OF fsnciful ships which went down in
the blast.
Two, in the chill of the snowy Decem-
Der,
Talk of the Winter that leads to thu
Spring,
Two sit and dream over faggot and
ember,
OF castles in air, and of birds on the
wing.
Two lie at rest under blossoming roses
Winter sits over them gently the
snow,
Sunlight of Summer above them re-
poses,
Their places are filled-and the wears
come and go.

The virihty and moral stamina of the
population of large cities is kept up
through the stream that flows steadily
from the country to the city of strong,
healthy young men and women, who
carry with them their Drawn, moral
power and mental robustness. But for
this constant renewal of forces the
strenuous and often artificial and vitiat-
ing character of city life would ulti-
mately result in an utter deterioration
of urban population.

AS TO "HEDEtMlNS" yIssINIA,

But if Mr.. Glass or any==
other person has any doubt as to
what might be expected of the Re-
publican party in Virginia, should it
come into power in the State, ne
might learn something by investi-
eating the situation in the adjoining
State of West Virginia, where the
Republicans are in control. "-Bris-
toll Herald Courier.
Yes, they could learn a great deal
They would learn that taxes are lower.
and that they are trying to reduce them
still more instead of trying to create 8
Tax Commission that will be an add
tional expense and for the purpose of
trying to find means of raising the tax
es, so that more offices might be Gre
ated and more money squandered. They
would also learn how a State is develop-
ing its resources instead of retardinp
them.
The State government of our sister
State may not be an ideal one, but it
shines when compared with the machine
misgovernment of our own State, let it
be said in sorrow.
They might also learn, not only from
West Virginia but from Tennessee,
what Mr.. Glass so earnestly expressed a
wish, how to rise above mere partisan
consideration in order to rebuke and
punish corruption in high places"
Will Mr.. Glass and his friends do this
and show that his campaign utterances
were not mere idle vaporings? His
answer to the appeal of the Republican
for genuine reform in. Virginia will
show if he was sincere.
What will your answer be, Mr.. Glass?

City men who take to farming usually
are not very successful. That is not
the fault of the land but of the man.
If the city man who goes to the coup-
try would only recognize that farming
Is one of the most scientific of yocations
and that he has much to learn and some
thing to unlean he would in all likeli-
hood succeed where he now fails. But
with rare exceptions the city man who
turns farmers thinks that farming is a
very simple matter and that what he
does not know about it (which is usually
very little) is not worth knowing. And
that is the man who after some woeful
experiences gives up in disgust and
says that farming does not pay.

as saying that the Democrats had bank
rupted Virginia. This is unfair and I'M
true We did not say it, because Vir-
ginia is rich in resources and taxable
values. We did say, however, that the
machine Democracy had so directed leg
lslation as to raid and bankrupt the
treasury. Perhaps it would not have
sounded as harsh if we had said dust
ed the treasury. The treasury
was busted when your present ma
chine Governor was inaugurated. for he
has said so; and machine Democrats
have quit lying since the new constitu-
ton went into force, according to the
contention of the Roanoke Times. Yes.
the treasury was busted" and Cover
nor Mann had to borrow money and
urge the railroads and other CORPORA
lions to pay their taxes ahead of time
last year to tide over the deficit that
his predecessor had created.
We take it for granted that the treas
ury is still hard up, if not busted" If
not, why hasn't the auditor returned to
the counties the one-third of all capita
ton taxes collected in 1910, as required
by Sec. 173 of the constitution? This
has not been done so far as Tazewell
county is concerned, and we suppose all
the other counties have been treated
the same way. That money ought to
have been returned months ago.
And why are not the counties re-
ceiving their share of the one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars appropriated
for good roads? Tazewell has not re-
ceived any this year, and she has been
building roads under State supervision.
And why are not the old Confederates
getting their pension money? Money
had to be borrowed last year to paw
them. Is the treasury busted again?
If not, why are these appropriations
withheld?

Patrick Henry.
The Republican, believing that Pat
rick Henry was right, has from time to
time quoted the editor of the Roanoke
Times to show the unfitness of the Dem
ocratic party to govern the State. We
have quoted the gifted editor in an edi-
torial published In the Richmond News
Leader in March, 1900, while he was
yet editor of the latter paper.
That the editor of the Times objects
to being quoted as to the action of his
party may be taken from the following
extract from an editorial in the issue of
the Times of one week ago today. in
which he says:
The Tazewell Republican should
have something injected into itself
and come to life and the present if
1t expects to make any fight for its
local offices this year The old dron-
ing and moaning and whining and
weary parrot repetitions of old cam
paign talk of twelve and twenty
years ago will not go with the liv-
ing and thinking people of today.
They are tired of all that. They
want to hear about the men and is
sues of now"
No doubt the eccentric editor of the
Times grows tired of his erratic utter
ances, when in an odd spell he told the
truth of the machine management of
his party, but the people do not, be-
cause they know tits true. Passing this.

tence of his editorial: '"They want to
hear about men and issues of now" let
US see what the leading Democratic or
gan IN Virginia, the Richmond Times
Dispatch, a clean and respectable paper.
thinks about the (Democratic) men and
issues of today.
In its leading editorial on the morning
of the Democratic primary, on Septem-
Der 7th, it said:
"FOR VIRGINIA
Virginia meets a fateful issue
today. That issue is not a much
heralded efficiency in Washington:
it is a much needed fidelity in Vir-
ginia. What Virginia should con-
slider today is not white supremacy
twenty years ago, but with truth
now; not brilliant extravaganza, but
spotless trustworthiness.
Senator Martin has been Judged
by his own letters and his own state
ments, and found unworthy. Sena-
tor Swanson has been judged by his
own actions, his own admissions and
his own claims, and found unfaith-
full.
For the honor of Virginia, SEN
ator Martin and Senator Swanson
should be defeated"
Not 80 frank and more polite than
what the editor of the Times has said
about his own party, but in substance
the same.
The representatives of this great
Commonwealth in the next Senate of
the United States are unworthy" and
'unfaithful. Could more be said to
convince thinking men of the necessity
