WOODROW WILSON nEu1-KEn

Colonel w. III. Stewart OF Portsmouth.

men who followed Lee. He is loyal TO
the just cause for which he fought, and
proud of tho record mado by his com

week, he administered a sharp rebulse
TO woodrow Wilson for his perversloo

says, speaking OF one OF the greatest
naval engagements OF the war: "On
the ninth of March these two novel
craft (thc Monitor and the Virginia)
made trial of each other and the Vir-
Einia was worstcd." This was the oc-
casion of Colonel Stewards protest. ana
what he said is worth repeating, thus:

saw inc Monitor retreat to Shallow
water, and would never moro give the
virginia an opportunity to fight her.
even when she had another ironclad TO
assist her.

The Enterprise published in It's last
issue an account of the augmentation
OF the coal dumping service at the
Sewell Point pier of the Virginian
Railway. in which 1t has been found
necessary to put on a night service, SO
that vessels coming into Hampton
Roads for coaling can now be served
at either day or night. The monthly
average has increased in one year frorn
$4,000 tons to $4,000. 1t is said that
the estimate of coal dumped into YES
sells In the year from January, 1910, to
January, 1911, amounted to 140O0,O00
tons. Think of that! These millions
of tons OF coal mean millions upon mil

The railroad In the exercise of its
