While a great majority of the Richmond

Of the Wythe county jury which declared
Floyd Allen, the Carroll county outlaw
guilty of murder in the first degree and
therefore condemned him to death, a
more conservative element does not think
the prosecution clearly established its

This contingent insists that a conspir-

was not proved and that no matter how
many officials were killed, FLOYD Allen

cording to these d;ssenters. an eighteen

Stranger things have happened in the
world of politics. say those who discuss
the matter. And, moreover. it can but
be admitted that the Nebraskan still holds
the affections of the Virginia rural folk
to a remarka BILE extent
In the cities however, he has lost much
of his prestige. Added to this is the Sc
cret hostility of the party leaders. They
have pretended TO admire him at times
when they were far from enthusiastic.
a good deal of irritation was expressed
few months ago when Bryan opposed
Thomas S. Martin as democratic caucus
chairman of the Senate. And it Is not at
all likely that Martin has yet forgotten
the activities of the Nebraskan at that
time.
But after all has been said and the
pros and cons weighed, the fact remains
that the Virginia democrats would be
willing to do almost anything this fall to
insure the election of a democratic Presi-
dent. They are full of hope as to the
success of Their party and sincerely be-
lieve that they now have a fighting

covered with small red pimples which later
developed into large boile and my face was
in such condition that was ashamed to
go out Of the house. After using salves
recommended by the druggist I went to .
hospital for treatment. The head physician
at the hospital told me would have to
report for three or four months for treatment
before the bols would even start to disappear.
"A young physician while treating me
recommended Cuticure Soap and Ointment
and told me to treat my face every night
before retiring with both the Cuticura Soap
and Ointment. By following his advice l
did not have to 60 to the hospital for more
than e week and half. The results obtained
were far better even than the physician
expected and I was completely cured in a
short time by the use OF the Cuticura Soap
and Ointment. I also found that both nurses
and physicians at the hospital used the Cuti-
