Aliens and the Law,

d. A. L. Worrell. forty years resident
Of Carroll county, in Southwest Times:
Ex-Governor Tyler's letter of Thurs
day refreshed my memory for thirty or
more years ago in regard to Incidents
that have happened in that county, a
few of which wish to speak.
But the clause which attracted my at
tention from Mr.. Tyler's letter and put
me to thinking is the following
'Of one thing we are confident, and
that is that these men have lacked in
religious training" This may be true.
and at the same time there are men in
Hillsville who have never attended Sun
day school, but would never have such
a crime as recently took place there
charged to them.
Carroll has reaped the harvest from
seed sown in that county which dates
back about thirty-fve years.
This outrage against law and order is
the result of political teaching and train
ing more than from the lack of religious
teaching.
Why do l say this? Well do l re-
member, when l was boy, how all the
political speakers, even the congress

Estil Groseclose, son of Mr.. Thomas
Groseclose, of this place, was found be-
side the railroad track, about one mile
west of Tiptop, on yesterday morning
with his left leg badly mangled by hav-
ing been run over by a freight train.
He was taken to Tiptop where DR.. Py-
OFT gave him the necessary first aid.
Later he was brought to the Sanatorium
here where his foot was amputated Just
above the ankle.
The injured youth was unable to give
an exact account of how the accident
occurred. 1t appears, however, that
along with a number of other boys from
here he attended the closing exercises
of the Wittens Mills high school Tues
day evening and remained there over
night. Early yesterday morning he de-
cided to go to Bluefield, and either
caught train of shanty cars at Wit
tens Mills and fell off. or had started to
walk and tried to catch the trains at
the place of the accident and fell under
the cars. He is reported to be doing as
well as could be expected, considering
his injuries.

represented as it should be. Hon. Henry
Z. Stuart will be there to represent the
farmers and graziers, but the vast min

man in that district. would vilIifv and
oenounce IN strongest language at their
commandthe internal Internal revenue
laws" These revenue laws were unpo-
pular in that country among all citizens
from the best to the humble, and when
the candidate for congress would come
around, to whoop the boys up the most
pleasing thing he could say would be q
complete denunciation of the internal
internal revenue laws with their guag-
ers, thieves, spies and informers and
bung-suckers.
mus the law was not only denounced.
but the officials, and that, too. by the
leading citizens sll over the country
and the candidate for congress was the
bravest leader to denounce the law and
the officials.
ms was not many years after the
civil war when those Aliens were bows

speech from man who was looked uo
TO more than any other man we had vet
had the pleasure to look upon: for the
most OF US in that country TWENTY-FIVE
TO thlrty-hve years ago never saw many
as great as a congressman. And to
hear a man make a speech, who had
been in the capitol of our nation. was
considered a pleasure and honor con-
terred upon US backwoods people to be
thus recognized.
To hear such one villify the internal
revenue laws with its officials. and said
denunciation endorsed, and cherished
by all best citizens, is in any wonder
tnat many men of limited means and
without Sunday school training violated
these laws which were so unpopular?
When these men of limited means and
and limited education knew and saw
that they had the friendship and endorse
ment of the highest intelligence in the
land in opposing those laws is it anv
wonder many openly violated them?

UNDERWOOD MEN AT WASHINGTON AND LEE
Twenty-Seven Alabama Boys Attend ing the School Have Formed an
 Underwood Club

The Alabama boys who are attend ing Washington and Lee university at Lexington, Va. and due to the in fiuence of Dr. George H. Denny, now president of the University of Alabama, this state is sending many of it's sons to the "Old Dominion" for education, have formed an Underwood club.
 Notification to that effect was sent to oscar c. Turner, president of the Underwood Marching club of Alabama yesterday.
 Tn the university" said the letter of notification. there are 27 Alabama boys. Each is a member of the club. We are doing work for Underwood here, and as he was educated at the University of Virginia it is with little effort that we are winning enthusias tic support. We believe that 75 per cent of the students of Washington and Lee are Underwood men,"

Railway, Light and Power company in the matter of rates, without any terms or conditions as to the duration of rates.
 "Finally and most of all, it means that the people of this city are strongly averse to making any sort of concession to the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company which even looks like an ex- tension or enlargement of that company's franchises or any additional lease of pow CT. had no conception of the intensity and extent of the popular prejudice against that company.
 While only about 50 per cent of the qualified voters voted at all, and less than one-third of the total number of quail fled voters voted against the contract, even the fact that so many remained away from the polls is a circumstance to show that the people did not care enough about the offered benefits of the contract to take the trouble to vote for l. If even all the light consumers whose rates were to be reduced by the contract, and who are qualified to vote, had voted for 1t, it would have been adopted. The fact that they did not vote themselves the proposed reduction, Is significant of the public sentiments towards the con- pnay."
