NOT SATISFIED WITH THE
REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE.

1t is clear according to a state
ment made by Mr.. E. H. Witten.
in another part of this paper,
that the people of Buchanan
County generally, are not salts
fed with the nomination of Mr..
Looney as their representative in
the Legislature of Virginia, I'M
less that gentleman is mistaken
as to the sentiment of his coun-
ty, and he is inca position to
know.
Mr.. Looney was recommended
to the Richards Convention we
are Informed, by only about s
Republicans of Buchanan county.
and does not and cannot possibly
be a representative of the entire
county. AS to Tazewell, he IS
absolutely unknown except to a
very few Republicans. He is an
old time stand-pat Republican,
Objectionable to the progressive
element of the district, which
10 quile large ana Slf0ng.
The Progressives of Buchanan
County did not go into either
the Buchanan or the Richards
meetings, and are standing
pat" A good, progressive
intelligent man. Democrat or
Progressive Republican = one
who would be worthy and
strong representative, from
either, could be easily elected
over Mr.. Looney. The two great
counties, Tazewell and Buchanan
deserve, need and should have n
man in the Legislature who
knows the needs of these coun.
ties, and capable intellectually
and from experience, of filling
the bill. This would seem to be
an opportunity for the election
of a good man.
Mr.. Looney is perhaps as
weak a man as the Republicans
could have found, and a man
should be found to beat him.
Where is the man?

a Christian Party, no doubt
gambling would have taken place
as to the chances of Mesdames
Steele, Harris, and Hunter, also
the REV" and Or" getting
through the small opening in
rocks through which entrance
is made, however, all palpitation
of heart was stopped and every
one was calmed-a after much fun
when the aforenamed were land
ed safely down a steep slide
aided by rope into the depths of
"Inferno"-or rather if you have
had the "Chute the chute" ex-
perience, you can imagine ex-
actly what the sensation is of
"chuting" down about one third
of mile into dark, gloomy
cave. In order to push toward
our expedition. we had to
cross a chasm Grand Canon of
Colorado beaten to a fragile
two of the men, Messrs John
Gillespie and Bart Pruett formed
a human bridge across which
the party landed safely on the
level ground.
The Rev" had a narrow
escape for he missed the foot of
the young men, and fell from
grace" "Chuting the Chute"
he fell on to a ledge OF rock and
gained his footing once again,
and if it had not been there he
sure would have gone right
through to 1.-The Satanic King
DOM"
The Bell Room was found and
explored. Next the party went
into a large room about 20x3O
feet high in which were large
formations fluted and other
wise. some of them giving rich
clear torres when tapped. To de-
cribe the cave would be an ard
uos, nerve racking task, and
would no doubt, give some one a
touch of lunacy. Suffice it to say
however, we went about one
mile into the cave-a gradual
descent to a depth of about 500
feet, and were in there about
two hours. Great excitement
prevailed when the party were
endeavoring to reach daylight
which could be seen, but, like an
ideal, must be worked for in or
der to attain.
With the aid of strong rope
and plenty of hard work on call
tours" the party once again
reached the warm sunlight and
fresh air, more the worse for the
experince. but had added greatly
to their already acquired know
ledge and education by spending
the afternoon in this famous
cave.
On the return, several kodak
pictures were made, several
members of the party entered |
a boat on Clinch Valley River
and were going to go for a
"joyely row" while they laughed
at those on the shore, but alas!
4" H" who laughs last laughs
best, - for the boat was capsized
and the 10y riders were given
their annual summer bath" in
about three feet Of water. The
Boating party were: Mrs. Steele
and Misses Hurt, Bourne and
MarGie Harris.
Arriving al home at 6 p. M,
The party ate a hearty supper
and went TO the Land of Nod"
tired out.
The party included: Mrs. w.
B. Steele. w. B. Harris, C. M.
Hunter, Misses Lois Hurt, Mary,
3. Gillespie, Mabel Dorruc. Iva
Steele, Margie Harris, Messrs
John Gillespie, Bart Practt,
Will Reese Sparks, Rex Steele,
