Transport Prairie Has Already
Landed IT'S Marines.
TO Be SENT INTO INTERIOR
They VIII Protect the Interests OF
Any Foreigners Who Are Men
aced.

The United States is prepared tc
send marines and bluejackets to the
interior OF Cuba for the protection OF
American and foreign interests, where
no Cuban forces are available for that
purpose. even though President Gomez
should object to such course.
Just after this statement was made
at the STATE department came the news
from Cai,nanera, Cuba, that the Unit.
ed States naval transport Prairie ia
arrived there, bring ng rs men OF the
United STATES Marine Corps.
1t is emphaucally held at the state
deDartmeut that American marine ana
navy officers are expected to take such
measures .ase become necessary tc
protect foreign plantations as well as
American ones.
No foreign government has at We
communicated with the United States
on the subject of protecting its inter
ests, and it is understood this gov
eminent aims to make such action
unnecessary
NOW that President Taft has replied
to the message of protest sent by
President Gomez, this government is
confident that with a clearer under
standing of the purpose Of American
military forces in Cuban waters, there
will be no further objection to the dis
position of ships and men for the pro.
lection of all interests.
Cuba was officially notified as early
as last Friday that it was the pur
pose of the United States to cOncea.
trate a naval force in Cuban waters
It is now known that the demonstra.
ton was not an impulsive movemen-
but part Of a general aad carefully
prepared plan on the part Of the Uni
ed States to restore order in Cuoa
first by moral influence if possible, am
by intervention in a political sens
only as last resort.
To avoid taking the Cuban govern
ment by surprise, the state deFa-t
ment last Friday called in Senor Ca
rlllo de Albornoz, charge Of. the Cuban
legation. and it was explained to him
that while it was the purpose of this
government to send a naval force tc
Cuba, 1t was only intended to hay
such force in position to protec-
American lives and interests, ONLY i
it should become apparent that tie
Cuban government was unable to con

SHOULD DECLINE

Mr.. Carnegie's proposal of $25,
600 per year to x-Presidents of the
United States and the same to widows
of Presidents so long as they remain
unmarried, is a novel proposition.
His fortune is so large that he is
forced to devise all sorts of schemes
to dispose of it. This last move,
while no doubt made with good in
tentions, cannot and we are sure,
will not, be accepted by any self re-
speeding Ex-President. Mr.. Carnegie
amassed his great fortune through
special favoritism of the government,
through benefits accruing from n high
tariff, and it would be nothing short
of monstrous to make the Presidents
of the United States neiciaries of
special interests. The very sugges-
tion is reflection if not an insult to
present and future Presidents and no
doubt will be promptly declined with
thanks!

HIGHWAYS IN SOUTHWEST

The C'inch Valley News is in re-
ciept of the following letter from the
Board of Trade. Bristol, Tenn.
Editor Clinch Valley News,
TaZewell, Va.
Dear Sir For Sometime this Or
ganization has had in mind the matter
of attempting to organize a highway
association having for its purpose the
construction of links to form a con-
tinuous highway from Bristol to
Bluefield via Lebanon and TazeweiI.
Our Bristol to- Washington Highway
work has progressed TO such an extent
that Bristol is now. able to give its
attention to its long desire to have
direct connection with you, and we
are writing to know what you think
about issuing a call for a conference
of all interests between Bristol and
Bluefield along an imaginary route,
to be held in Bristol December goth.
when the plan may be discussed, and,
If deemed advisable, an organization
formed.
The time will come-ought to
come soon. when communication be
tween centers and rural communities
will be easy. Bristol is a growing
city-a gateway of the Southwest,
and should be linked to the itch
Clinch Valley region by great public
highway. We suggest. however, and
have SO indicated to the Board of
Trade of Bristol, that meeting be
held here instead of Bristol to discuss
the road matters. Let's have great
: ad meeting here som 1T me in Dc
ember' and have representative road
men here.

Right 10 the ONT

The mistletoe, with is many
pretty associations, has been found to
be wolf in sleeps clothing, VIII ole
forests having been poisoned by it.
War has therefore been declared upon
the venerated evergreen and it will
no longer take part in the osculatory
demonstrations at Yuletide.
1t is proper to do the small things
we'll, but if you allow them to take
all your energy you will be incapac ,
itated for attending to the larger
things.
kissing conveys deadly disease
germs. and still none of the girls
around this old town are dead ones.
Now, girls, how you account for that =?
A Tazewell girl has lost her pow err
of speech because of being Tilted by
her sweetheart. He'll probably want
to marry her now.
Labor is not always paid better her
than in Europe. The car gets $25,
600 a day FOR doing what President
Taft does for 1914.
While things are quiet with the
secret service a few of it's members
might be put on the scent OF some
congressional campaign pledges that
seem to have become lost, strayed or
stolen.
Some delivers in the mysteries of
the evolution OF man now claim that
the human race originally began life
in the form of trees. There are a
few "sticks" left to bear out the
theory.
If some of the papers are to be
believed. coroner's jury is what
they need down in Washington.
A woman is likely to think it too
sudden when the ballot says "vote
yes or no. -
The higher living gets the more we
want to live.
A mans political affiliations in
these trying days are often merely
question of salary.
Drinking wouldn't be quite so bad
if it didn't make man want to talk
so much.
It's lots easier to show enthusiasm
when there is no need for it than
when there is work 10 do.
A man naturally draws around him
friends adapted to his own code of
morals.
1t is better to be honest from force
of circumstances than not at all.
The only thing that keeps some
women from becoming gossips is 10
have husband to tell things to.
The man who gets the girl is just
as likely to be disappointed in love as
the man who loses out.

that the street should be paved with

sends off into the town branch a

it not be economy to pave with vitri-
