WILSON'S INGRATITUDE.

Governor Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey. has struck q snag in his pr s. idential aspirations Condemnations is being heaped upon him by Demo- crats throughout the country for his action in demanding the wit drawol of the support of Harper's Weekly and especially when it's editor, Colonel George Harvey, is responsible for his successful boom and has been hls most loyal supporter and admirer- Even Colonel Henry Watterson. of tho Courier-Journal, who was present ai the Manhattan Club when Wilson told Colonel Harvey that he thought Har- vey's paper was doing him no good in having his name at the top of it's editorial column, was surprised and shocked" And now Colonel Waiter son, who has been equally as active in Wilson's behalf, has soured on the New Jersey chief executive and says that he Is not the man he thought him to be, in advocating his cause.
 Wilson is being generally denounc- ed by Democrats all over the country for his dis1oyalty His political boom was on the decline even before this incident The elections in New Jer-

Wickersham, prompted by desire to be humane, recommended his release Morse Is not a criminal at heart and has never been. He was a victim of unfortun- ate circumstances and financial en- harrassments and his conviction, Wnil. to a larg degree merited, will have the desired effect, spite the action of President Taft after he had served only two years of his long prison sen- tence.

sey some months ago set at rest ali
 speculation as t0 Wilson s success in
 his efforts TO land f.ae Democratic
 nomination for president. Governor
 Harmon is without 3 doubt t3e most
 logical mac for The presidency at this time Former Governor Folk, If Missouri Spealsr Champ Clark, Gf Missouri; Congressman Underwood, Of Alabama, and all the others who are being mentioned from time to time in connection with the adersh:p of the party are out of the rum ng so far as the nomination is concern cd,
 Harnlon's success in Ohio stamps dhlm the sort of statesman that ea,.
 lead the Democrats on 10 victory His accomplishments in the recent primaries iu he Buckeye States were Wilson in Nv Jersey. Harmon Is t strong man pol tically and intellect ually. He is anything but disloyal 10 his friends and his party and his determination n build up the govern ment on a suond basis makes him an ideal man for the presidents chair.
 Cover rnor Wilson is q disappointme nt. He might be good governor, but it is far from stamping him presidf ntiai timber It is fortunate that the par E leaders found Governor Wilson out in time. His true nature has fs- sertsd itself i, an incident that nigh. seem trivial at this time. but tha. means much for the future.
 Editor H iskell, of the Little Rock Gazette, says that Colonel Harvey asked Governor Wilson plain ques- tion and got plain answer Yes, t ntirely too plain, considering the loy- alty and well meaning efforts of Col onel Harvey. Such ingratitude can not help but make Colonel Harvey look upon Governor Wilson as an in- grate and man of entirely 100 little judgment and appreciation 10 fill tae chief executives position al the nat ions capital The Gazette does not believe that Wilson will suffer from such inconsistency and ungrateful conduct in the national gathering of party leaders. It would be a,tal step to nominate Wilson uoMi Ii would mean defeat for Democracy on the eve of it's brightest opportun- ity.

At Abingdon October 2.

The Holston conference Of the Meth
odist Episcopal church. South, which
meets in Abingdon 2, it is believed will
select Bristol as its meeting place for
1913. It IS expected that Bristol will
invite the conference to that city fcr its
next annual meeting, and in such event
it is thought the conference will ac-
cept.
The conference this year will be pre-
sided over by Bishop John c. Kilgo, of
North Carolina, the college of bishops
having adopted policy having the
bishops hold two conferences in success
sion, the idea being that they will be
better acquainted with conditions by
this method. Bishop KiIgo held the
conference lest year.
HoistOn conference embraces the ter
ritory of East Tennessee .ast of Chat
tanooga; Southwest Virginia and south
ern West Virginia, and the conference
IS attended by ssversl hundred minis
ters, laymen and visitors.

Revival Meeting in High SchaoI Chapel.

This will be great community meet
ing in which the purpose to edify saints
and convert sinners will be pursued and
emphasized, instead of the building up
of the membership of any denomina-
ton. Sometimes we have meetings
held by pastors and evangelists for the
purpose of strengthening a particular
denomination. While such meetings
are helpful, the fact that large num-
Der of the congregation are only guests
imposes the guest relation, and there
fore limits that freedom and interest in
the meeting and relieves from that sense
of responsibility that every preacher
and Christian worker ought to assume.
and it is hoped all will attend this meet
ing as joint proprietors and not as
guests, and that each will feel that it is
OUR meeting.
Miss Roth, the chorus leader. has
been here this week training large
choir. Mrs. Yuell arrived yesterday.
to organize the women for work in the
meeting. DR.. Yuell will reach here
Saturday, and will begin the meeting at
IL O'Clock Sunday morning in the High
School chapel. He has the reputation
of being one Of the best evangelists in
the country.

The first view is looking east on Main
street from opposite the courthouse as
1t was twenty years ago. On the left
hand side, the corner of the Masonic
Temple, then just completed, may be
seen; and next, the vacant lot whereon
now stands the building occupied by At
torneys A. S. Higginbotham, T. c. and
Bowen and Greever & Gillespie. The
next building is of considerable historic
importance-beiDg the birthplace of
Tazewells gifted son, pr. George Ben
Johnston, now of Richmond, and built
by his father, the late Hon. John w.
Johnston. At the time this picture was
taken the west end of the building was
used by A. J. and S. d. May, attorneys.
and the east end by the Bank of Taze-
well. At present, the lower floor of the
building is used by Attorneys S. d.
May and R. o. Crockett and the upper
part by K. c. Burks as residence, the
building having been remodeled several
years ago for this purpose. The build
ing next, now known as the Hankins
building and occupied by NJ. j. Hankins
and the Tazewell Millinery Company,
stands on the site then used by H. W.
Pobst as a store, while his father lived
upstairs The upper floor is now the
office Of John R. Gildersleeve, civil en-

building will be easily recognized by old
timers as the Central Hotel, then run by
Geo. Il. Surface and the late Jesse

Thomas Ryan is BugabOO in Dark Corners.

Thomas Fortune Ryan owns the eyes
in the ubderbrush that frighten the
united democracy. Bryan's efforts to
overturn the Murphy forces
might have amounted to a good deal
less IL ho had not dangled the Ryan
BsInont bugaboo before the delegates
at every cbence. And that bugaboo
would hot have looked so completely
fearful If Thomas Fortune himself had
not been in town as a member of the
Virginia delegation. Hived in a quiet
mansion, where neither reporter nor
delegate could get near enough the
Wall street magnste to sink q load of
bird shot in him, Ryan wss supposed by
the Bryan men to be plotting the over
throw of the party and scheming to de-
feat the will of the common people. In
which, so far as the chairmanship prop
osition was concerned, he was eminent
ly successful.

PROGRESSIVE TAZEWELL.
Kip Van Wnkle Came to Town Many Changes Would Greet
The Wanderr Of Twenty YearS-A Steady And Sub
Stantia Growth of Our Little City,

The citizens of our little city are too
pessimistic, and too many with a crouch
are saying: Nothing ever happens in
Tazewell; it's a slow old town." and
many other similar remarks, until a
stranger hearing them would think it
to be town with only a far distant
past and no future. These grunbIers
fail to realize the steady and gradual
improvements that have been made
here year after year.
Not counting the puny efforts of the
early nineties, .Tazewell has never had
what Is usually termed q "boom," hut
the improvements in our business blocks.
dwellings, sanitary living and in civic
oetterment have kept pace with the de-
mands of the times, and it is today one
OF the incest residential towns in the
United States.
Because the growth of our little citv
has been so gradual our citizens do not
appreciate it, and to show it by contrast
with conditions of twenty years ato,
the Republican this week presents its
readers with views of Main street that
the towns growth may be understood
and appreciated.

Not only do 1t property books Of
Russell county show less than half the

the constitutional amendment allowing

question which Mr.. Moore would not
