At Sixty

A majority of men at sixty years
of age are dependent on their daily
earnings or their children for sup
port.
At sixty years, and often sooner,
"a mans earning capacity is reduced
to the minimum, for no one wants
the 'old man" and he is crowded to
the rear by the younger men and he
can secure only the hardest, most
disagreeable work and at the small
est pay.
You can be Independent at sixty If
you open your bank account today.
You can start with one dollar.
Don't put it off-get the savings
habit; it pays, and you will get lots
of pleasure out of watching the nick
els and dimes grow into dollars and
the dollars into hundreds of dollars.

Stuart Hands on

There is significance and in
terest in a conversation between
Henry G.. Stuart, who will be
governor of Virginia if he lives
to Inauguration day, and a citizen
of Roanoke, as published in the
Roanoke Times and reproduced
elsewhere. Mr.. Stuart seems to
be determined to declare clearly
that he will take no part in fact
ional or local politics in the
State, as among Democrats, and
that he will not use the influence
and powers of the governors
office, nor his personal influence,
to advance or retard the interest
of any individuals or element of
the party. Regarding himself as
the representative of the entire
and united party. he will keep
hands off any dissensions or con-
tests that may develop inside the
ranks. He will refuse to linden
tify himself with either the So
called machine" or "anti-
machine 1actlOn, ana IN max
ing appointments will consider
fitness and not political alliances.
This is wise position, and
will be appro yed heartily by the
masses of the people of the
State. The announcement of it
should end or check the activities
| of the dilipent fpht nronOrate
and speculative geniuses of the
press here and in Washington.
Probably it will not. Political
reporters and correspondence
must dream dreams, as is theil
nature, to fill space with some
thing and try to give an excite
ment craving public something
to please its appetite; but Mr.
Stuart's declaration of purposes
seems clear and convincing. -

For every satisfied and APPROX

follow the same, broad, sensible

ments that he has in all his

Is There a Reason

There is some sinister sugges-
tiveness in the sudden and
general attack being made on
Mr.. Bryan by the European
newspapers, especially those of
France and Germany. These are
pouring out torrents of ridicule
and sneers, some of them coarse
ly virulent, directed against the
secretary of satte because of his
lectures on the Chautauqua
circuit. 1t is not easy to under
stand how this matter concerns
these newspapers, what business
1T is of theirs or why they take
so much interest in it. Mr..
Bryan is not injuring them or
offending their dignity. Yet
they describe him as a vaudeville
performer, appearing on stages
along with acrobats, yodel sing
ers and others of the cheaper
kind of theatrical people. They
speak of his lectures as his
turns" and seem to be exhaust
ing all their resources of humor
in the effort to belittle him. The
French newspaper, VIGOROUSLY,
are subject to purchase of their
editorial opinion and positions.
1t has been demonstrated quite
conclusively that they were
bribed freely to uphold the con-
duct of Huerta in Mexico. Many
of the Grman newspapers OBJ
viously are under the orders of
the imperial government. There
fore it looks, from this distance,
as if there is some hidden cause,
some curious significance behind
this unity among tthe journals of
the two countries which agree
hardly ever on anything else.
AS we say in this country. there
is cause for suspecting "a bug
under the chip" and maybe it
will come forth after a while. =

THE TOWN SEWERAGE.

The town sewerage question
is ever with us, and will be a
source of worry and wranple
until settled, as it must be and
will be, sooner or later. 1t occurs
to this scribe that the question
is easy OF solution. The town is
highly favored in having a
sewer ditch, already dug, and a
good stream of water in it. The
branch, down Tazewell avenue,
is an ideal sewer, or in shape to
be made one easily. The ditch is
practically straight line, bar
ring only one bend, the entire
length to Clinch River. All that
is necessary is to lay a sewer
pipe of the proper size, cover it
up and you have it. Every
citizen in the town would be able
to connect his bathroom with the
sewer. The water supply would
be ample. In addition to the
branch water, all the water of
the town, from the reservoir
would go into this sewer. of
course, and give a good and
sufficient supply. And then.
every citizen living along the
branch would be benefited.
Objections is continually heard
to emptying sewerage into the
branch, as is the custom now
and a covered sewer would
obviarite all this. Any town, II
would seem, would consider it,
self fortunate in having q sewer
dug and flushed already, want
only a little extra work to put in
condition.
The question of bathroom and
water closets is an important
and urgent one in all towns. and
none the less so in Tazewell.
The yearly and futile order of
the town council to clear up and
clean out priyies has cotton to

1t is indefensible folly to build
good roads for narrow tires tc
cut. All narrow tires should be
taxed and a rebate allowed fol
wide ones. The Progressive
Farmer.
The above is so near a ver-
batim statement formerly made
in the Clinch Valley News as tc
make it appear almost a quota
ton. This paper has contended
all along that narrow tires should
be forbidden on the public roads.
No road has yet been con.
structed that narrow tires will
not cut to pieces and ruin in the
course of time, and that not a
long time, either. The change
from narrow tires can be grad
ually made, and no harm done,
and a special inducement offered
of exemption from taxation of
broad tired vehicles. The change
will come, and we expect to live
to see it.

States positively that he will

good reasons therefor. One, that

enough business of his own to
occupy all his time and atten-

MAJOR CowANs EXHIBIT.

Major Jno. T. Cowan, of Mont

the judges and spectators that
these cattle were the finest speci-
men ever shown here. The
splendid animals attracted much
attention, and favorable COM

Major Cowan is we'll known to
the leading stockmen all over
the country, and his visit to the
Tazewell Fair, bringing these
fine cattle, was event of the Fair

1t is understood that Major
Cowan is projecting a large
