MIR. J. w. CHAPMAN AND Dir. T.
LEE TRINKLE.

There is every probability now-;n
fact n foregone conclusion, that NJ.
j. w. Chapman will be nominated ms
candidate for the Senate by the
Democratic convention, which meets
NJ Hohaker mex, week.
Should Mr.. Chapman be nominated
and elected he will make fine repre-
sentative of the district in the Sen
ate of Virginia. Mr.. +. Lee Trinkle
in the other Senatorial district adj
joining will be Il worthy colleague,
and Southwest Virginia will he rep
resented by Senators in accord with
the party in the State-men of in
huence and power. Mr.. Chapman's
nomination should be heartily and en-
thusiastic and unanimous, and no
doubt will be if made at all, and must
be so made else he will not accept.
The impression seems to be wide
spread that if nominated he will give
Senator Royal, the nominee of the
Republican party, a close, hard race.
Both candidates are popular in the
county and district, and each will poll
votes from both parties.

him go down in American history as
the arch corruptionist of the noblest
nation that was ever given aglo rious
opportunity on the footstool of the
universe.
Now the wi'it,r of this apocalypse

FARM AGENT Il HUSTLER.

About the best institution that Mcr-
Ger county can boast at present is the
county farm agent. Mr.. Worthington
knows his business and is enthusiastic
in his work. and the enthusiasm is
spreading and the whole county is
being benefited. He works at the
job all the time. Unlike most Office
holders who usually perform lust
enough to keep on the pay roll, he
puts in every minute of his time
actually hunts for work to do-and
as Il result, he is making the position
great success. Mercer countyt has
many acres of the best of land adapted
for all kinds of crops and with the
new roads Il market can be found al
most mt the gate of every farm. From
the samples of fruit recently shown
1T is apparent that this is Il good APP
pie producing county, for some of the
more progressive farmers have excel
lent crops of the very finest varieties.
And when this fruit growing level
opcd Mercer need no longer depend on
coal digging for its wealth.

BUCHANAN COUNTY POLITICS.

There seems to be smal-sizcd
racket" in political circles in Buch-
anan county. One man, Il Mr.. Daugh-
srty, who, we believe, is chairman of
the Republican county committee, is
evidently stand patter of the old
typo. According to statement made
IN recent article in the Sandy Val
ley News, Mr.. Daugherty is some
thing Of Il political boss" He urges
every Republican to adhere strictly
and vote for no man, even for n county
office, who does not speak the language
OF the tribe. One Mr.. ii. A. COMPTON.
who' we guess, is Il Democrat, urges
u non-partisan vote in county affairs,
somewhat along the same lines as urp-
ed by the Clinch Valley News. If we
understand it correctly, the two polit-
zeal parties in Buchanan have here
totorc dlvlded-thc Republicans vot-
ing the Democratic ticket for county
oihces, and the Democrats giving sup
port to the Republican State caudi-
iih SttlllS 10 nave been inc
custom in that rising young county.
The county offices seem to be held bv
Democrats, whereas the Republicans
candidates carry the county i'm State
and federal elections. Mr. Compton
says eloquently that "The people of
tins county are going to vote for
whomsoever they please. The day of
bull-dozing is over" May it be so
The vote cast in the county for outside
Offices leads some folks to question
whether or not Mr.. Compton is not
mistaken.
The chief difficulty we see in the
buchanan county program is, that
where they need Democrats least they
put them in office; where thew need
Democrats most and seriously they do
not put them in. Wouldn't it nav tc
reverse the order?
The time ought to come, when ir
county affairs the lines drawn should
be non-political.

FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE
BROKEN OUT AGAIN

Dispatches state that the dreaded
loot and mouth disease has broken ont
afresh in Illinois, and some of the best
nerds in the State have been attacked.
This time the disease started from
infected hog cholera serum sold bv Il
Chicago firm, which serum escaped
the notice of State and Federal in
spectors last winter. The disease
spread, it is said, where ever the SER
UNI was sold. 1t was further spread
by farmers picnic parties and other
social gatherings. Two valuable
herds-one Brown Swiss, valued at
100000; another a Guernsey herd
valued at $4,000, found to be infected
were destroyed. The State of Iowa
Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and
west Virginia have quarantined
against the entrance of cattle from
the infected district. From accounts
the live stock interests in Illinois will
be almost wiped out by this return OF
lhis dreaded disease, from which tbe
state suffered an immense loss in the
former outbreak of the disease.
