Virginia Politics.
Sandy Valley News.

Sandy Valley News.
Partnership bas become paramount
to patriotism in Virginia. The people
are led about by the politicians like
dumb driven cattle by the lash of the
drivers whip. No where in the United
States today will you find men who are
controlled as completely by the office
holders as they are in Virginia. Let
some little sap-headed politician, whose
brain is below his ears and his patriot
ism for his state is the food that goes
IN his belly, make a political speech and
cry niger" a few times and most
Virginians are ready to follow him to
the brink of the polite al hell into which
we are fast drifting. When Pennsvl-
vania became so corrupt under a one
sided Republican rule, the people rose
up like men and elected a man of a diff
ferent political persuasion. When Ohio
got to be owned body and soul by Boss
Cox, the people rebelled and elected
Harmon; but here in the home of Wash
lngton, Jefferson, Monroe and Lee and
hundreds of other true patriots the of
flee holders have formed such a corrupt
network of power that they completely
control majority of the votes on each
and every occasion; so much so that the
purest men in our State today, such as
Montague, Merideth, Glass, Lewis and
Cabell are ignored and ridiculed into OBJ
security, if they dare raise their voice
against the grating and corruption that
is going on in the State. If you are
blood of the old stock who controlled
the destiny of this nation in days gone
by, you will materially change in the
near future the affairs of the State as
they are now managed under the pres
ent regime. If you have degenerated
into the ours that outsiders would have
us believe we have, we will go on from
bad to worse as we have been doing for
the last two or three decades, until we
will be objects of scorn to the rest of
the nation.

WOman'S Christian Temperance Union

The following address was delivered
at the December meeting of the Taze-
we'll w. C. T. u, and by vote of the
members requested to be published.
while every phase of the temper.
ance question has a vitality and an i'm
portance that demands the most serious
thought, conscientious discussion and
uncessing effort, there is one phase
which goes to the heart of every God
fearing, country-loving man and wo-
man, and that is the drink habit among
American women.
There are society women who are Ia
dies in all that is pure, lofty, refined,
intellectual, charitable and philanthrop-
&c, at whose door no such charges could
be made-but there are others. All
that has been said concerning the drink
habit, whiskey teas, punch-bowl recep-
lions, afternoon poker games with
high balls, gin fizzes' and cocktail re-
freshments is true every word true
and as we go down the social ladder we
find that similar customs prevail, in
quantity if not in quality.
There is another class of women that
would not touch whiskey as a beverage.
but think there is no harm whatever in
using it to season with in their cooking.
They think that fruit cake, plum pud-
ding, mince pies and hot sauces cannot
be made fit to eat Gf may use the
expression) without this seasoning, but
this is decided mistake, as most of us
know that our most excellent cakes and
buildings are not seasoned in this way.
Some say they have to put whiskey in
fruit cake to keep it moist. If thew
would just try vinegar in the place of
whiskey they will find it will have the
same effect, and will taste equally as
good, If not better, and a half pint of
grape juice added to sauce for plum
pudding is far superior to any whisk ey
sauce that could ever be made, is INV
opinion.
1T is hard for some of US to under
stand how mother with boys or girls
in her home can even think about mt
ting that poison in their food. Some
mothers have said: / haven't any
boys In my home, and of course it will
never hurt my girls. But, oh, blind
mother, those girls will marry some
body's boy some day, and by her very
thoughtlessness tempt her own husband
and probably give her own sons an APP
petite for whiskey that will be their
ruination.

top drunkenness, begin at the cradle.

The Weekly Paper.

The first number of the Wise Virgin
ian, of Wise, has been received. Will,
small, it is chock full of interesting 10
cal news and matter, and it's editor ba
the right idea of the field of q local pa
per, as will be shown by the following
taken from his salutatory:
''But / do want to make a neat
little weekly newspaper which will
be readable and helpful to the com
munity-a sort of neighborhood d.
airy of the doings of folks we know
and are interested in. / want it to
be clean and wholesome and pure.
This paper will not assume the airs
of metropolitan daily snd start
features that it will finally have to
give up. We have several good
daily papers coming into this section
and town and arriving here only a
few hours after they leave the
press. They bring us the foreign
news and much of the news occur
ring just outside of our own imme-
date neighborhood. But these daily
newspapers, indispensable as they
are, do not and never will take the
place of the weekly paper for the
small town. The man who thinks
the day of the weekly paper is past
has another think coming to him.
What we need here in Wise-and
Wise is not different from other
small towns-is a medium through
which we can talk to one another
about our own personal and local
affairs and matters that concern us
as individuals and as community.
That is the province of the weekly
newspaper, and if / can translate
my idea into a reality, would not
trade my job as editor of the The
Virginian for any city editorship at
so much per"
Kept up along the lines thus outlined
nd the Virginian will be success.

Some have said that clergymen and

class of men. However true this NAV

regards society and its practices. They
can be less worldly and more spiritual.
They can put the seal of condemnation
upon society's drinking customs. They
can exclude strong drink from functions
in which they are concerned. They can
keep IL out OF their cooking. They can
teach little children the danger that

ROOSEVELT WILL NOT RUNAWAY
FROM The NOMINATION.

The following press dispatch sent out
from Topeka, Kansas, under date of
January 9Th, bears the ear-marks of be-
ing somewhat near the truth:
Rpeka, Jan. 8.-One thing in regard
to ks&naiticsl situation may be get
down as definite and certain. Roose-
welt will take the Republican nomina-
ton if it is pushed on him. He will not
go after it. He will not even admit
that he is q receptive candidate. But
he will take the nomination if it is hand
ed to him on a platter. And he will
make no public utterance meanwhile
which can be construed as refusal to
answer the call of duty" The writer
talked this week with a man who had
seen Roosevelt within the past twenty
days. He is politician of prominence,
and has always been very friendly with
the colonel He would not, of course,
allow himself to be quoted. But his
tacit permission to print approximately
what Roosevelt said to him was gained.
81 put the question to him squarely,"
the p. p. told the writer, land this, in
effect, was his reply" 81 am not
Candidate" Mr.. Roosevelt said: Il
will not be a candidate. But if the
American people cali upon me to per-
form any definite or certain task. 1
shall not shirk the responsibility. The
Kansas politicians who now are skulk-
ing in the brush waiting for the rabbit
to be chased out can take it as authori- |
tative that Roosevelt will take it if he |
can get it without fight.

THURSDAY. JANUARY 1s. 1912.
REFORM az

On last Friday the Virginia Legisla
ture elected C. Lee Moore as auditor O
accounts for the State. AS to who an,
what Mr.. Moore is we will let Speake
Byrd, of the House of Delegates, say
The following, taken from the Rich
nond letter to the Lynchburg News
gives his views:
"Quite bit of bitterness devel-
oped In the caucus last night over
the authorship matter. Speaker
Byrd led the attack on Mr.. Moore.
He said in part:
The man who does not under
stand that new era has dawned in
Virginia Is blind to the signs of the
times The time has come when
the public will exact efficiency in its
public officials. The time for pea
nut politics has gone. 1 am oppos-
ing the nomination of Mr.. Moore
because l feel that he has not given
an efficient administration of the
duties conhded to his care. The au-
ditor's office has been fifty years
behind the times. 1t has been more
lnefficiently conducted than any 9TH
er public institution with which I
am acquainted Committees of this
assembly have sought information
there and have received misinforma-
ton, during the years when the bus
iness was under the direction of Mr..
Moore because of the age and ill
ness of Colonel Marye. The legis
lature was misled in 1908 to the ex-
tent of $500, 600 by information re-
ceIved from the office, and the ap-
preparation bill had to be recalled
from the printer and made over.
The Governor has called for infor-
nation and been misled to the ex-
tent of $4,000. The Governor did
not appoint Mr.. Moore when the
vacancy was caused by the death of
Colonel Marye.
Il resent the attempted dictation
by local treasurers of the election
of an auditor. 1 carry my sover-
eighty under my own hat, and pro-
pose to vote for the man who be-
heve will clean out that office.
beg of you not to continue the old
regime"
When they get too rank for Speake
Byrd to stand for them and merit sucI
a scathing attack as he made agains
Mr.. Moore, it is time for the citizens O.
this old Commonwealth to consider tn,
means of Kidding the State of the incu
bus of machine rule. There is only on,
way to do this, and that is, as we hav,
frequently pointed out: for the bette
element of the Democratic party t.
unite with the Republicans and IRE
deem Virginia"

Every citizen can do his share towards
putting his town upon the map or in
putting it upon the shelf. That so
many towns are negotiating or dead is
because so many of their people talked
them down or refused to help when op-
Portunities offered. If every citizen
would but consider himself an advertis-
ing agent to boom this town and in every
way advance its interests the growth
would be rapid and healthy.

What a way dead politicians have Of
coming to lifesagain. Every,now and
then we are assured that so-and.so is
politically dead and buried. But the
singular thingiis that he won't stay
buried but persists in rising again to
smile benignantly upon the men who
have buried him. In truth, whether in
politics or anything ,,else, if a man is
dead he has probably killed himself.
