REBELS WIN IN PARAGUAY
In Control at Asuncion-Presi-
dent Reported Fled.

Buenos Ayres, March c2.-Telegrams
reaching here from the Paraguayan from
tier say that the revolutionaries are In
control at Asuncion. President Pedro Pena
and most Of the members of his govern
ment are reported to have taken refuge on
Brazilian and Argentine ships, while the
others have sought asylum In the various
legations.
A fierce battle between the revolution
aries and the government forces In Para
quay has been going on, II appears, for
some time.
Many changes occurred in the positions
OF the two forces, intrenched points being
taken and retaken several times. Some Of
the battaiions engaged were decimated, ac-
cordlng to the report
The failure OF the peace negotiations be-
tween the rebels and the Paraguayan gov
ernment was reported on March IS. when
the rebels occupied Villete and began ad-
vancing on Asunclon. The government
sent two columns Of men to meet them, and
during fight the rebels captured two
machine guns
The situation at Asunclon was said to
be very critical, as the rebels then laid
siege to the city, surrounding 1t on the land
side, while rebel gunboats patrolled the
river, preventing the arrival Of foodstuffs
from Argentina and causing great distress
among the Inhabitants.

lRSuTgent and Regular Republicans fraier-

Republicans in Congress held a eau

in the preceding session. AS a result
the leaders were enthusiastic over the
outlook for victory in the coming strug-
gle to wrest from the Democrats the
control of the House of Representa-
tives.
Senator Gallinger, of New Hamp-
shire, Regular" presided over the
deliberations, end Representative Frank
Z. Woods, of lows, a leading "Insur-
gent" was one of the first to hold out
the olive branch of peace. He intro
duced resolution extolling the work of
Representative William B. Mckinley,
of Illinois, as chairman of the commit
tee and urging that he be reelected to
that position.
Good, good" Immediately arose
from every corner of the house cham
Der. This was followed by general ap-
plsuse. Mr.. Mckinley has been recog-
nlzed as one OF the staunchest of the
odd guard" and is a close personal
friend and admirer of former Speaker
Cannon. The resolution was adopted
unanimously.
A meeting of the committee will be
called within few days, Mr.. Mckinley
announced, at which officers and an ex-
ecutive subcommittee will be named.
Among the members of the new Con-

Plan Of Annex to Martha Washington

The contract TO build the annex to
Martina Washington College was let last
week The exact figures of the bid
were not given out further than to say
that it was a fraction over 500. 900.
This new edifice is to be erected on the
west side of the present building. 1t
Is to be 80 feet long, 49 feet wide and
four stories high, constructed of brick.
The first floor will be the music depart
ment. On the second floor will be the
presidents office and dormtories for
the students. The infirmary snd dor
mitories Will occupy the third and fourth
floors. 1t is to be completed by Sep
tember 1. When completed the college
can accommodate about 800 students in
addition to the faculty.
Before this improvement was at
tempted it will be remembered that
Rev. J.. b. Ward was sent out as the
financial agent of the college to raise
S25, 600 by popular subscription, in which
event Mr. Carnegie was to donate Sl2.-
500 to the school. MIR. Ward has sue
ceeded in getting the required sum sub
scribed and nearly all OF it has been
collected. A good portion of it was
used in paying debts against the college
and the balance will be used in the erec-
tion of the building. When all OF this
$25, 900 has been collected and expended
then Mr.. Carnegie will come across
with his Sl2. 500.
When this project was first under,
taken many good Methcdists shool
their heads and said it could not be ac.
complished but Mr.. Ward and DR.. Long
thought it could and they have succeed
ed. The building will be monument
to their untiring efforts for their snc
cess was in the face of much opposi
ton.

With somewhat vindictive walls the
Tezewell Republican uplifts its mourn
fui voice-somewhst cracked and dis
cordant from long lamentation-aqainst
the proposed changes of the congress
district to put Tazewell in the Sixth.
1t tells us the law requires that terri
tory constituting a congress district

oblong square or diamond shape. We

as 1t is contiguous and compact" The
proposed new Sixth is Contiguous" in
every sense of the word. It's territory
Is an unbroken line and one end of il is
within eight hours easy travel of the
other. In these days we measure con-
tlguity and compactness not " miles
nut by time and convenience. Taze-
well is closer to Roanoke or Lynchburg
than to Grundy in Buchanan county or
Jonesville in Lee county, now in the
same district with it. The Republican
should wake up aud realize that we es-
innate now by locomotive travel, not
by buggy speed.
The new district is distinctly beauti-
full. The undulations and curves. its
bulbous tendencies at some parts and
its concavities at others make it almost
as graceful and lovely as the body of
beautiful woman. And it is contiguous
and compact and convenient. It's peo-
pie have the same interests, are en-
gagged in the same pursuits and avoca-
tions, trade with and visit each other.

commercial intercourse. 1t is an ideal
congress district, charming to look at
on the map, sensible and just in ar
rangement. And all Of US hereabouts
love Tazewell. She is a great county
with fine people. We want them with
US, close to US, associated with US DO
litically as they are in so many other
ways. We will be proud of the associa-
ton and contact. We will make a hand

me by my highland father. A costlier
heritage could not be more highly priced
by anyone, and have hoped through
the years past that the grand old Ninth
would return to the Democratic fold.
but If we must give up these great
counties mere for the sake of party
gain, what is victory worth? What
glory would there be in a victory if we
could not boast that we had conquered
Tszewell? Where will the honor of
victory be if We are forced TO acknowI-
edge that we had to make an outcast of
OF Tszewell to gain it, and l for one do
not wish to see the proposed changes
made. l hope the question will be set

Thirty Years of Southern UpbuiIding. &"

Only by contrasting the South of to-
day with the South of thirty years ago
can one get viewpoint from which to
study the progress that has been made
and to forecast the future. Marvellous
things have been achieved. Still more
marvellous achievements will be made.
Much has been done, but there are Inn
itless resources to be developed: limit
less opportunities to be utilized.
The cumulative power of the work
for Southern upbuilding of the last third
of century is beginning to have its
full effect. The attention of the whole
world IS now being centered on the
South. AS never before, capitalists.
manufacturers, merchants, investors.
farmers and health-seekers are STUDY
ing the South.
Without fully understanding the work
of the past thirty years no one can cor
rectly measure the possibilities of the
future. One must know the proL ress
made and the resources in soil, climate.
minerals and water-powers awaiting
utilization, in order to rightly under
stand the situation. In order to meet
this need, the Manufacturers Record is
preparing to publish, il celebration Of
Its thirtieth birthday, Thirty Years of
Southern Upbuilding," under which
general title will be graphically pre-
sented the advance in the material up-
building Of this section. with broad
survey of its vast and varied resources
and advantages.
The publication will be epoch-making.
Into 1t will be gathered a more com
plete and comprehensive survey Of
what has been accomplished and of
what will be achieved than has ever be-
fore been presented to the public.
Every man interested in any wav
whatever in the South. whether living
IN this section or in the North. or the
West or abroad, will necessarily want
that publication. He will need it. 1t
Will contain facts which he can secure
nowhere else. 1t will be a treasure
house. For years to come it will be
consulted by managers of great indus
trial and investment interests seeking
to make their plans for the extension
of their operations along intelligent
lines. 1t will be studied by students of
economic history, by writer's and speak
ers, educators snd public men generally.
who will find it storehouse upon which
to draw.
Every man interested in the progress
of the South should have a bound copv
for his library, as well as a copy for his
office.
The price of this thirty-year anniver-
sary publication will be, in paper cover
so cents; in cloth, SIPS, and in Russia
leather, 50.
The South as viewed by people OF
other sections will prove an especially
valuable feature. This will be covered
by Important articles and letters b,
many of the foremost experts and lead
ers IN finance and industry outside Of
the South. They will tell how the Soutl
is regarded in scientific circles and !,
the financial and industrial conters o.
the country.
