would Judge Morrison wisb 81
dollar expended for his cause
AS profound as was his affec-
sion for Morrison, Gen. Ayers
stated he would rather see him
defeated than the beneficiarv
OF corrupt methods, and that
) Judge Morrison earnestly shared
ms view. We do not know
that General Ayers recalls this
incident, busy man of large af
lalrs as he was and is-but we
dot came into the audience
room of our memory very clear
and fresh and distinct, as we
read Gen. Ayers appeal to the
voters of the Ninth to Danish
irregular methods of spending
money in Ninth District politics
and bravely Offering to sacri-
nee his chances for election, If
need be, as leader of the so
splendid crusade. The matter
is mentioned here, simply be
cause we believe it ought to be
mentioned. 1t shows that way
back there in the days of negro
suffrage, when vote buying had
not been outlawed by public
opinion, the man who is now
holding aloft the banner of pure
elections in the Ninth was prac-
tlclng as private citizen what
he Is now preaching as Demo.
cracy's candidate-that then as
now he was alert to tie perils
OF commerce in suffrage, and
expressing holtility to the prac-
t'ce. It's merely single cir.
cumstahce to be sure; merely
an incident of trifling impor-
lance if taken by itself. But
when considered in connection
with Ayers Marion speech and
the sort Of clean campaign
standards that he there defined
and warmly advocated, and
the inspiring call that he there
sounded in behalf of honest
election methods, the statement
OF the occurrence seems decided
ly revelant and quite we'll worth
whilc.-Lyuchburg News.

Attorneys and Operators
Back from Atlantic City,

Il. t. Irvine, j. f. Bullitt, A.
III. Reeder, G. L. Nash, Otis
Mouser and DR.. j. w. Kelly
returned last week from Attain
tic City where they spent last
week before the Interstate Com
merce Commission u opposi-
lion to new schedule of rates
on coal and coke filed by the
Louisville and Nashville rail
road.
The proposed rates seek to
advance tho present rates about
30 cents per ton on coal and
coke from the Black Mountain
and Appalachia fields TO points
north of the Ohio river. Com
petition in this region with
other coal and coke producing
districts is very keen, and the
Virginia mines have difficulty
holding their own unde. tho
present rates. If the advance
is allowed by the commission,
those interested believe it will
exclude virginia coal and coke
from the Western and North
western markets. and will seri-
ously cripple their operations.
Mr.. Bullitt, one of tho attor-
neys for operators, said that
the evidence ia about concluded
aud that the case would be ar.
gued in November and proba-
bly, decided before the first of
the year. The operators n n d
their attorneys arc feeling good
over the results thus far, and
believe that the Louisville and
Nashville railroad has not made
out it's case.

State Auditor Moore After
Merchants.

Richmond, Va, Sept. c.
Auditor @. Lee Moore in after
the merchants of the State for
the taxes which they should
have paid in the way of pur.
chnses they make. The mini
mum fee is So, and it is surpris-
ing to see just how many of
these there are in the State.
That much of the money due
the State because of alleged in
correct reports can be recover
ed is the belief of Mr.. Moore.
In order that the Common
wealth's attorneys in the State
may have chance to force the
collection of these taxes, Mr..
Moore is having a list of the
merchants compiled and will
furnish the same to the courts
that proceedings may be had
against these men. 1t is posi-.
bic that some of the commits
sioners of the revenue may be
lacked up" on account of the
lax way in which they have
been making the assessments.

Found Pot Of Gold.

On last Wednesday, an old
farmer whose name we were
unable to learn, found a pot of
gold, containing $500, under
the hearth in a house near Hill
Top, in the extreme outer edge
of this county.
The treasure is supposed to
have been hidden by William
Wilson over a hundred years
ago, who purchased the place
from Indians in 1906, and the
land has been in the possession
of the Wilson heirs ever since.
There are five heirs who will
sue for the money.-Princeto N
CIV. Va.,) Messenger.

Light And Power.

A siding is being graded mid
way between Appalachia and
Big Stone Gap, and in the Gap
proper, preliminary to the build
ing there of an electric light
and power plant which will
supply both towns, and others.
This is movement most au-
spicious for Appalachia which
he's felt the need of such o plant
for years. The light service
has been poor and Inadequate,
and arrangement will result,
doubtless in a condemnation of
the franchise to the present
company.
One thing we hope the COM
pany will bear in mind, the ne
cessity of building and equip
ping a plant for both day and
night service commensurate to
the needs Of n large community.
In twenty years the towns viii
be much more populous and
very much closer together. The
beautiful pike has aIread v made
il easy for men to do buainess
in one town aud live in the
other, and then 1mboden and
Plnman will be suburbs of both
and in close touch with both.

The fiattering allusion by our
neighbor of the Post to the pos
