REPLIES MADE TO THE
ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE
Senatorial Candidates on Liquor
Issue

So far as the attitude of the four
candidates for the United States SEN
ate relating to national temperance
matters is concerned. there seems
to be little choice between them from
the standpoint of the A1ti-Saloon
League voter. The headquarters
committee of the Anti-Saloon League
of Virginia has propounded queries
to the aspirants and has received re-
replies, which indicate that thsreis
no practical difference in the position
taken by them.
Carrying out the instructions of the
last convention of the Anti-Saloon
League OF Virginia. Senators Martin
and Swanson and Representatives
Jones and Glass are asked il they
favor aud will work for the passage
of the Miller-Curtis bill, or an equiv
alent subject of legislation, designed
to give the several States police
powers over the interstate ship
ment Of intoxicating liquors. The
enactment of this measure would
give to the States the right to pre-
vent the shipment of liquors from
other States to dry" comm unities
within their own borders.
In addition, the headquarters COM
mittee has added query IS to the
position of the candidates regarding
what is known as the Barthold bill,
which has f >r its purpose the res
toration Of the army canteen.
On both of these propositions all
four candidates have written out
their opinions in form which
should. apparently. be satisfactory
10 the Anti-Saloon League. The two
Senators and two Representative
say that they will vote for and sup
port the Miller-Curtis bill, and that
they will oppose the enactment OF
the Barthold bill.

Mr.. Bryan as a Dictator

Editors aud others so ready to ac-
cuse Mr.. Bryan of an effort to die
tate should be able to answer the
following questions: How can a
man be a political dictator who holds
no public Office, who holds no party
craftsmanship. who belongs to no
inside clique, who has no big bust
ness affiliations, who cannot pull
single secret wire in politics, whose
only political power is the confid-
ence which vast majority OF the
masses Of his party repose in his
fidelity? Mr.. Bryan S political pow
er has no other source nor support
than that well-earned confidence.
He hasn't any longer even the dub
ious power Of possible candidate
for the Presidency. for he has dis
tinctly declared his intentions on
that score.
In the dispute between Bryan
and Underwood on the wool tariff
question we believe both were
right-all depending on the point Of
view. Mr.. Bryan stood for consis.
tency believing that the revenue
needed from raw wool could be got
ten from other sources far less bur
densome to the poor. Mr.. Under
wood stood for the 20 per cent wool
tariff as a revenue tax.

ago OF official misconduct and order

He also directed the attention Of
the chief to the fact that the Sunday

SOUTHERN CHIEFTAIN
WAS KINDLY RECEIVED
Courtesy to President Davis After
Release from Prison

But it really seemed as il the deep
feeling OF the community had pos
sessed the United States officials.
The desire TO be polite and gracious
manifested itself in every one OF
them. After we were all in the
court room awaiting the arrival OF
the Judge and the prisoner. Gene
raj Burton came in dressed in full
Uniform and followed by Mr.. Davis.
The marshal conducted them to the
prisoners dock, coming Immediate
ly TO me to invite me to sit by Mr..
Davis, that he might feel he had a
friend with him, and lose the dis
agreeable conscious ness OF the pres
ence of constables and turkeys.
AS / pushed nv way through the
crowd, l thanked the marshal heart
lily, and sitting down beside the
prisoner, felt that L was enthroned
with king.
In very few moments, the cour-
tesy was extended by asking us to
remove from the seat OF the accused
to Join Mr.. O'Conor and Mr.. Reed
within the bar. There stood be-
hind Mr.. Davis during the whole of
the proceedings, and when it was
all over, was the first to congratulate
him.
Observation Of this kindness on
the part OF the officials had Inspired
in anxious friends more hope in the
Judge, but there was still such a
dread in everybody's eyes when
Underwood was about to speak
such perfect stiffness in the hall
as l shall rarely see again in law
yer's life OF anxiety in court rooms.
And when the oracle came-"The
case is undoubtedly bailable, and as
the government is not ready to pro-
coed with the trial, and the prison
err is and for long time has been
ready and demanding trial-it seems
eminently proper that bail should
be allowed'-such Joy and relief as
came upon all faces
When it was done and the pris-
oHer discharged" Mr.. Davis asked
me to convey him as rapidly as pos
sible from the court to his rooms al
the Spotswood, and 1 did SO in
triumph.
Our carriage was beset with a
crowd frantic with enthusiasm. cheer
ing. calling down Gods blessings,
rushing forward to catch him by

The Cost of Bad Roads

Here is what an author says about
the expense of bad roads:
1T cost the French peasants an
average OF IL cents mile per ton to
haul his produce to market. Itcosts
the American farmer an average of
% cents mile per ton, or 100 per
cent more than the Frenchman .
During the year 19O5-19O6 hauling OF
farm produce to shipping points
amounted to between 40, 600. 900 and
As, 600. 000 tons weight. The average
haul was ga miles. II the farmers
could have done their hauling over
French roads, instead of their own
inferior ones, they would have net
ted $Ds. 900. 900 more on their crops. y

timers of Lexington can point out to
this day in one Of the walls of the
main dormitory one of David Hun
ter's shells with which he sought
to reduce this property, when he
felt it was occupied by enemies, and
before he applied the torch. Near

however, have been absorbed in the
larger and greater life OF the school.
which is growing steadily, not only
in the favor of our own people, but
in the estimation as well OF the coun-

This is proved by the increasing
number of young men Vho are sent

ceive the best training in military
tactics and in the useful pursuits Of
peace.
General Wood was very much i'm
