The End of Summer.

The End of Summer.

perfumed face
Toward Fall and waits, heart heavy

Her trouble and alarm.
1t is the close of summer. In the skv
The sunset lit fire of drift and sat
Watching the last Day, robed in En-
pire, die
Upon the burning Chat.
The first leaf crimsons and the last
rose falls,
And night goes stalking on, her
cloak rain
Dripping, and followed through her
haunted halls
By all Deaths phantom train.
The sorrow of all the earth and all
that dies
And all that suffers, in her breast
she bears;
Outside the house of life she stops
and cries
The burden of her cares
Then on the window knocks with hap-
gard hands
Her tree-like arms to Heaven did
ly hurled;
Loves hear her crying, "Who then
understands?
Has God forgot the world?"

WILSON.
An Appreciation.

We have, raised up out here on the
edge of the world-on the rim of his
tory, man at last who is the domi-
nant figure Of the earth.
Our country has produced other
great mcn-notably great soldiers and
sailors, inventors, constructors, ora
tors, poets and historians. We have
had great Presidents who were states
men, and great statesmen who were
not Presidents, but they have all been
more or less restricted by the envi-
ronmcnt of circumstance lin
itations Of arena and epoch. Their
aspirations have been bounded by ia
miliar horizons, and their influence
regional.
1t has been reserved for their great
successor to assume without osten-
tation, and sustain with that modesty
which is the basic element of gran
deur, a place on the worlds forum
to stand serene and unabashed in the
spotlight of all history that has been
written, and to inscribe on the gene
sis of the new, Peace on Earth, Good
Will towards man.
The President has undoubtedly ac-
quircd the wisdom of the books, but
none of them hold formulas for sue.
cessful government. He could learn
neither from Seneca nor from Ma
cauley a panacea for demaeogues,
nor an anesthetic for agitators, yet
through some mysterious power he
has governed" through the aid of
the one, and the shamed silence of the
other.
He knows better than all the books
when to speak and what to say; he
tempers the diplomacy of Machia-
velli with the gospel of justice-thc
wisdom of Tallyrand with the code of
humanity, and when this present
wreck of matter and crush of worlds
shall have subsidized into the murmur
of the chancelleries, will it not be his
guiding hand to write across the rec
ord of rapes and precedents, called
international Law, new code, to be
known through all time as Interna.
tional Jus tice.? II NJ. S.

THE NEXT EVENT.

The statewide election and the big
Sunday School rally and picnic are
over and past now, and the next big
event is the County Rally at the Fair
grounds next week, of the farmers
and school people. Like all the rest
this will be a great success, too, if
weather is favorable. Tazewell peo-
pie have gotten in the habit lately of
booming everything that comes up,
and they will not fail this time. They
will come in crowds.

PETER WINSTON.
What is Needed.

Then, while the men were voting,
there were thousands of good women
in the churches praying. That was
another irresistible force in the pres
ence of which many man might pause
to consider lest haply he be found
fighting even against God.
What lies before us now is compar-
atively easy. Virginia is determined
upon the total destruction of the sa-
loon, and she knows how to do it,
The necessity may arise to elect to
public Office men who are in smpa-
thy with this righteous cause. Pro-
hibition has been embarrassed in some
States by executives who were oppos-
ed to it. Such contingency must not
arise here.-Bcn C. Moomaw, in the
Richmond Virginian.

memorable one in history, il

women and children, and for those in

THE SPLENDID FIGHT MADE BY
THE VIRGINIAN.

Now that it is all over, we wish to
express the appreciation of the good
people of this section for the splendid
work done during the campaign by
the Richmond Virginian for state
wide prohibition.
II fought good fight, which means
brave, open, fair fight, and won out
with flying colors in the face of OBJ
stinate and well equipped forces. The
people of the State should show their
appreciation and give this clean, fine
paper such boom as it has never
mad. Show your appreciation by sub
scribing and paying for it in advance.

BIG CORN.

Tazewell believes in and grows big
corn. The west end of this county
Judging from samples shown here
has broken the record this year The
exhibit of corn at the Fair next week
promises to be the best yet. 1t should
be borne in mind, however, that the
largest corn is not always the best.
The best corn is that variety which
shells the largest number of pounds
to the bushel of ears. This means
deep grains, small cob. No use to
waste time and money growing cobs.

The lesson should be needed. 1t is
being burned and shot into us now

Civilization of the highest and best we
know of does not spell freedom from

does not inherently include regenera-
ton, without which collapse is inev-
liable sooner or later. This is his
tory from the beginning and will be
