From Progressive Farmer:
Farm trials were made at the New

from exposure to rains. Only the

Marse Robert is Asleep"
By Miss S. B. Valentine.

A Graycoat relates to his friend,
a Bluecoat, the following incident of
the late war: General Lee, sorely
fatigued by hard days march. sat
down to rest at the roadside, when he
soon. fell into deep sleep. His SOL
diers, who observed his as he slept,
whispered warnings to their nearest
comrades not to disturb him. The
whisper was then passed from man to
man along the line of march).
Had you heard the distant tramping
On that glow ing summer day
Had you seen our comrades running
To meet us on the way!
Oh the wondrous, sudden silence,
TIL unmilitary creep.
AS down the line that caution ran
Marse Robert is asleep!'
Give US your hand, old Bluecoat,
Let's talk of this awhile;
For the prettiest march of allsthe wal
Was this of rank and file
Was the passing of that army,
When twas hard, l ween, to keep
Those men from crying out, Hurrah
Marse Robert is asleep!'
There lay that knightly figure,
One hand upon his sowrd;
The other pressed above his heart.
A vow without word:
Two laurel leaves had fluttered down,
For flowers their vigils keep,
And crown'd him. though l think they
knew
Marse Robert was asleep!

Edith M. Weidenfeld, writing of
the spring hat in the March Woman's
Home Companion, says that the ar
rangement of the hair plays a more
important part in millinery than the
average woman admits. The average
woman, when selecting a hat, has
an idea that she ought to get the
newest in color, shape and trimming,
regardless of its relation to the shape
of her head, the contour of her face,
or the arrangement of her hair. She
wonders, then, why she does not like
her hat after she has worn it, and 1t
takes several long interviews with
her mirror before she realizes that
the hat which the saleswoman assured
her was the newest thing, and becom-
ing, is entirely inappropriate and I'M
related to her own particular style.
Miss Weidenfeld goes on to give the
news about spring hats. Following
are brief extracts:
Stiff, heavy straws are no longer
modish; they have been succeeded by
soft straw braids. and many of the
new models are covered with taffota,
either plain or in changeable effects.
trimmings are slipping around
toward the front, many being placed
at the direct front, and others at the
side very near that point. : For dress
hats, ostrich-plumes are fashionable
for trimming. They lie quite flat
against the hat, under or on the brim
or they stand up very straight and
stiff. A single ostrich-plume, or two
or three tips in Prince of Wales style
are more appropriate for spring wear
than cluster of four or five feathers
with heavy flues. Wings and orna-
ments made of fabrics, lace, and
straw braid are in good style, and SO
are bands of Irish, Venise or macrame
lace"

RUMBLINCS

Editor News IL have read the two
articles in your paper signed "Minor-
ity' and Majority" and am at a
loss to know why any Democrat
should object to Reorganization of
the party when there is so much dis
satisfaction with present conditions,
which can be remedied by a change.
With present management, we saw
the only nominee slaughtered i'm last
falls election, evidently from some
cause, and it must come from the
management or mismanagement, one.
The working Democrats are not salts
fled as things are going ana the pat
lent needs a physician to recussitate
conditions. Why should any Demo-
crat object to this change when it is
bound to be for the betterment of the
party? There was new committee
elected last July, when two Demo-
Gratis represe nted Maiden Spring Dis
tric'; four Democrats represented
Clear Fork District. and about TWEEN
ty-tive Democrats mostly from town,
represented Jacksonville District.
About thirty Democrats organizing
the party that cast 1907 Democratic
votes. Is this the people ruling? This
meeting was not called either "when
nominations were made for the House
Of Delegates. - for no nomination was
ever made and so far none contempla-
ted at that time. The nomination for
Senate was made two months after
this meeting. 1t is useless to go into
details of the July "ticket" meeting,
for they are we'll known. Suffice to
say. it was useless meeting, unless
determined fight was going to he
made for Senate and House of Dele
gates. | have not a word to say about
the personnel of the committee. Many
were put there without their know
ledge, but the committee is too much
congested, aud too many precincts
without representation, for party good.
If Majority will go back and
search the record he will find in 1908
the Democrats of Tazewell took this
matter up in mass meeting and elect
ed a new committee, and this yenr
too. when nominations were not
made for the House Of Delegates, &"
and perhaps Majority" was an adj
vocate of this plan then, why not
now?
AS to certain parties wanting to
"fX' committee for personal advan-
cement in ease Democ ats are sue
cessful ut the polls this year in elect
ing President to secure office. In
case this happy dizzy arrive the pat
rons of the Office will have to say as
to who they want more than any COM
mittee. as the very essence of Demo-
cracy is the people ruling.
The rules and regulations of the
party are. not so hide-bound that they
cannot be remedied nj any time for
its betterment. and no one is better
judge of this matter than the Demo-
Gratis of TaZewell themselves who
know local conditions. 1t has already
been done in Tazewell and elsewhere
where conditions demanded it and it
should be done again.
Let the Convention when it meets
to send delegates to the State Con-
vention take this matter. up In n
practical, business way, re-organize
for the benefit of the party as n
whole, discard personal disputes,
elect chairman away from the
Court House, then we will see n unit
ed party working together and up
building and not retarding. Will the
Dcmocrts of the county do this? 1t is
up to them.
