SAY, that | am in hearty accord
and sincere sympathy, | am not
in favor of plunging this country
in war with Mexico unless it be-

course, would be in favor of war.
| deplore even the thought Of
war, not only because the United

because of the great sacrifice of
human lives required to carry on
such a war. as we might expect
from the hands of such a class of
people as inhabit Mexico. And
SO long as there is any way to
avoid such war and thus save
the lives of our young men in
this country, would oppose it.
but when our national honor is
assailed and we can no longer
avoid the struggle, let it come.
In conclusion, | will say that

C. W. BRANDON
Writes Open Letter to the Voters Of Sec
end Congressional District.

Virginia:
Having decided to ask the next
Democratic nominating congress
sional convention to give me the
nomination for congress, to sue
coed the present incumbent,
Honorable William G. Brown, |
am inclined to believe, that the
party in this district, is entitled
to know my position with refer
ence to at least few of the
great problems confronting the
present administration, and in
this connection will say:
First, that | am in hearty ac-
cord with the revision of the tar
iff, downward, because Icertain-
ly believe that the American peo-
pie were in favor of such revis-
ion, not only at the hands OF the
Democratic party, but at the
hands of any other party in pow
er, and so expressed themselves
at the polls time and again, and
that it was right to give our peo-
pie just what they desired in the
way of tariff revision, down
ward, ard having done SO the
present administration has GER
tainly kept faith with the people.
Second, | am in perfect har-
mony also with the currency bill,
as | fully believe that such a
measure, when in perfect opera
ton, will be of untold benefit to
the great middle class of people
in this country. However, | can
not say that / am in perfect ac-
cord with the location of the re-
serve banks, as recently an
nounced by the members of the
reserve bank organization COM
mittee.
Third, will say that | am in
perfect sympathy with the re-
peal of the law providing for the
free passage through the Panama
canal of vessels Of the United
States engaged in coastwise traf-
fc, not because however, it was
advocated by President Wilson,
nor because it seems by some to
have been in violation of our
treaty with Great Britain, but
because, believe it will be right
to the ninety odd millions of peo-
pie in the United States, with
whose money this canal was
built, as against the possible few
thousand persons engaged in this
coastwise traffic; and also, be-
cause | am a Democrat, and the
great Democratic party has al
ways been opposed to subsidy in
any form. President Taft, who
signed this bill, defended it upon
the ground that it was subsidy,
and | believe his defense for
signing the bill was a proper de-
Tense, from a Republican stand
point. Colonel Goethals, who
built the canal, recently explain
ed to congress that every dollar
of tolls exemption means dol
lar drawn from the United States
treasury, without any cores
ponding benefits to anyone ex-
cept the privileged shipowners,
SO / am inclined to believe that
to be in favor Of or vote for the
retention Of such q measure, is
not in keeping with the policy Of

A preacher came to news
paper man in this way, says an
exchange: You editors do not
tell the truth. If you did you
could not live; your newspapers
would be a failure. The editor
replied: You are right and the
minister who will at all times
and under all circumstances tell
the whole truth about his mem
bers, alive or dead, will not oc-
cupy his pulpit more than one
Sunday, and then he will find it
necessary to leave town in hur-
ny. The press and the pulpit go
hand in hand with whitewash
brushes and pleasant words, mag
fnifying little virtues into big
ones. The pulpit, the pen and
the grave stone are the great
saint-making triumvirate. And
the great minister went his way
looking very thoughtful while
the editor turned to his work,
and told Of the unsurpassing
beauty Of the bride, while in
fact she was as homely as a mud
fence.

The designation of Richmond
as federal bank reserve city for
all of West Virginia except the
four counties Of Hancock, Brooke,
Ohio and Marshall, which are
placed in the Cleveland district,
does not seem to have proved
very satisfactory to any part Of
the State. Many other localities
in various parts of the United
States are dissatisfied with the
arrangement and appeals will be
made to the full board when it
is appointed, asking for some
changes in the reserve cities. It
will be several weeks before the
remaining members Of the board
are appointed.
