Enforce AN the Laws.


Yes. enforce the laWs,-the enforcement
of any law shows its necessity, and il II
is proved the law is bad, it should be re-
pealed, and promptly so. Let the game
that is now going be well umpired and
squareiy played. The railways do not
ask nor seek any vantage ground upon
foul ball, but only ask to be accorded a
square deal. Let confidence be restored
trust each other-seek not to gain ad
vantage other than along the narrow
pathway in the obedience of all laws.
Now, let US appeal to the people to
purge themselves of the prejudice their
political fellows are endeavoring to in
ject into their lives. They should stop
and think whether they can afford by
their voice. vote and unreasonable laws.

at whose home he was a guest while in
Bristol recently.
One of Col. Mosby's most daring COM
rades during his memorable struggles in
Virginia was the late Capt. Joseph W.
Owen. OF this city, a brother-in-law of
Col. King. Col. Mosby described the late
Capt. Owen. Fount Beattie. of Alexan-
dria, and Col. Sam Chapman and Col.
William Chapman as among the most
distinguished of his comrades in point Of
service. and 1t is believed that he would
style them as his big four were he
called upon to designate the men who
probably were Of the greatest value to
his movements.
Captured 5000 Federals.
1t has been published that Col Mosby
claims to have captured about 5000 Fed
erals during his military operations. To
this statement as to claims" Col 'Mosby
responds by saying: Il claim nothing.
but state as a fact that l hold receipts
for even 6,0O4 Federals captured by my
self and my men during the civil war"
And in addition to this il may be said
that Col. Mosby and his men captured
many millions OF dollars worth Of COM
missary supplies and quartermaster' s
stores, most OF which was used to aid
the Confederate forces and the starving
families in the valley, who otherwise
might have perished. owing to the strin-
gent rules that were made to apply to
that region by the Federal government.
1t was because of this wonderful record
that Col. Mosby's scalp was much sought
by the Fedt rails in the closing days Of
the war, and It might be said that but
for the friendship OF Gen. Grant. who
admired the prowess and daring OF Mos
by, the latter would never have lived to
see the dawn of a new century and 70
have visited the scenes OF his ante-bel-
lum career.
And Gen. Grant afterward. as President
OF the United States sent Col Mosby
as Minister to Hongkong. China. where
he served with distinction for seven
years
Conspicuous among the men who served
in Mosby's battalion was Barren Mas
SOW. now in the military service OF the
German Empire. Massow was shot in
one Of Mosby's encounters and painfully
wounded. Col. Mosby himself, many
time In the midst OF showers of bull
let's was never seriously wounded except
on one occasion. He lay helpless with
bullet in his body when a party OF Fed
erals came upon him. and would have
killed him, no doubt. but for the fact
that he was mistaken for a private. He
had stripped his shoulders of the straps
designating his rank. and this saved him.
The Federals carried away his hat. and
afterward finding his name on the sweat
band. returned to kill or take Mosby a
prisoner, but he had been carried to a
point OF safety.
Col. Mosby Is undoubtedly one Of the
most unique figures of the civil war. and
when finally the impartial history of
that world-renowned struggle Is written.
this man will stand out as one of the
most distinguished men of the times-to
the civil war what Francis Marion was
to the Revolution.

american Christians

Uneasiness IL felt throughout America

institutions.
The present war Is a religious one and
behind 1t are desires to grab territory.
As everybody knows. the Turks are
