C0nfEDERATES on
PENSION ROLLS TO
Be SALOON TARGET

The Local Self Government league
has had a large force Of clerks at
work in the State library on Saturday
and yesterday. engaged In copying
lists OF the names of all the Confeder-
ate soldiers whose names could be
secured from the rolls kept in the
Library building. The purpose of this
work 10 understood TO be great ef-
fort nthe part of the liquor people
to swing the old Confederate vote TO
their interest.
The pension rolls of the State were
the documents on which the liquor

tanned from the officials OF the library
the work was being pushed with as
great speed and secrecy as possible.
There arc one or two. lines of oper-
alton that It 10 thought will be fol-
lowed in this connection. The liquor
people have all along harped on what
they claim In the danger threatening
the state from the loss Of saloon rev.
enue.
This unwarranted argument has
been amply refuted by the showing
Of actual figures of cost Of the sa-
loon TO- tho State whereby two dol
lars OF saloon expense Is entailed for
every dollar of saloon revenue. 1t
Is on this score that a probable APP
peal to the Confederate vote will be
made In q vain erdeavor to take up
a score that the pensions Of Con-
federates may suffer from the saloon

GIRL ASSAULTED
BY NEGRO; JAILED

The negro brute, who late yester-
day afternoon criminally assaulted
pretty little Miss Wright. an eight
year-old girl. in the home Of her
parents, on the outskirts Of Dos
well, Va. while her parents were at
tending ball game. and who left his
victim In a semi-conscious condition,
Is under arrest In Ashland, Va, where
he was caught by railroad detectives.
according to a report which reached
Richmond at an early hour this morn
ing.
The crime is one Of the most re-
voting which has ever taken place
In Hanover county. and citizens are
aroused to a high pitch Of excitement.
That extreme measures might be
taken was probably the reason wh1
the negro was last night taken to
Ashland following his arrest between
that point and boswell instead Of
taking him back to boswell.
According to information which
reached Richmond the parents OF the
all attending a ball game yesterday
afternoon In boswell. Just before
the game was ended, 1t seems that
the little girl was sent home on an
.errand. She was given the key to
the house and told to stay there I'M
til the arrival of the parents.
From what could be gathered from
the information that reached Rich
mond. the young girl told that she
had hardly reached the home before
the negro approached her with the re-
quest for drink Of water. He was
given this. In the conversation which
ensued between the little girl and
her brutal assailant. the negro learn
ed that she was alone in the home.
When the girl entered the house, she
was followed by the negro.
Following her into bedroom OF the
house. the negro forced the little girl
to do his bidding. shortly after ac-
complishing his purpose, the negro es-
capped into the woods making his way
towards Ashland.
When the parents rearhed their home
they found their sight-year-old daugh-

ters every day. and more speakers In
the field than In any great movement
that has been before the State In
years, the work OF education and agi-
tation in behalf Of the passage of the
enabling act goes steadily and sue
cossfully on.
The league Is sending out this week
over n quarter million copies OF the
last number of the Virginia issue. the
paper in which are found complete an :
swers to the falsehoods OF the liquor
traffic concerning taxation. its mis-
representations as to prohibition in

Two hundred thousand copies Of

In this month were sent out yesterday
and other pieces OF literature are be-
ing circulated as largely and as freely
as are these.
The strategy of the AntiSaloon
league In drawing out the full strength
Of the opposition in the early stages
OF the campaign has enabled 1t to con-
centrate it's work on the really vital
points, both OF argument and locality.
The State Is interested in every move

many years Is predicted by all those
who have given any study to the ques-
ton with practically general consent

calmly confident. but are working with
unexampled energy and enthusiasm.
