This giving to nation new states,
the turning of virgin soil, was SER

No people, in manner SO unassum-

Member From Buchanan and
Tazewell- Incensed Over Ac-

(From the Richmond Times Dispatch
of March 81

lfrom the Richmond Times Dispatch
of March 81
Delegate E. H. Witten, of Buchan-
an county, and Archer Williams,
brother of former Attorney General
Samuel w. Williams, of Wytheville,
after an alteration over a bill offer
ed by Mr.. Witten, which, if passed,
would make Pocahontas dry after
May l, engaged in fist fight late
last night in the lobby of Murphy's
hotel. The trouble between the men
arose from the contest over the bill.
Dc.eGa,e Witten acted as the attack
ing force, and succeeded in leaving
several marks OF his assault on the
face of Mr.. Williams before friends
separated them.
The fight occurred shortly after
the adjournment of several commit
tees, and the lobby of the hotel was
crowded with legislators and citizens
Delegate Witten saw Mr.. Williams in
the lobby, and at once went toward
him. AS he approached him he voiced
his sentiments concerning men who
would do what Mr.. Williams had done
toward defeating his bill. Mr.. Will
liams at once replied and without
more words the men went for one
another.
Seated near the rail of the mezza-
nine floor which overlooks the lobby
of the hotel, was Mrs. Witten. She
witnessed the meeting between her
husband and Mr.. Williams and sat as
though spell-bound until the men had
been separated. Then excitement got
the better of her and it was with diff
| ficulty that she was prevented from
going into Mysteries.
Charges Williams With Defeating His
Bill.
1t is alleged that Mr.. Williams was
the cause of Delegate Witten's bill
losing its place on the Senate calen-
dar, fact which may prevent its
enactment during the present session
of the Legislature. According to the
story told after the fist fight between
the men last night, vote was about
to be taken on this bill in the Sen
ate.
At that time, Senator j. p. Buch-
anan, of Marion, was prevented from
being present on account of illness
Mr.. Williams is alleged TO have has
tened to the bedside of Senator Buch-
anan and secured his consent as pat
ron to allow the matter to go over
The bill lost its place OH the calendar
and its chances of passing at the
present session.
Delegate Witten is said to have be-
come thoroughly aroused when he
learned the circumstances and to have
awaited an opportunity for meeting
Mr.. Williams. He did not mince words
when he came upon him last night
and Mr.. Williams retaliation was
pointed and sharp. In the passage OF
blows which followed, Mr.. Williams
was struck at least twice in the face
One blow cut the inner skin of his
upper lip, while the other raised Il
pronounced swelling on his forehead.
Delegate j. II. Crockett, of Wrthc-
vile, was one of the first TO ster
between the combatants and he was
followed closely by dozen other leg
islators. The men were separated
neithing caring to press the affair
further, and each was unwilling tc
take the matter to court. Delegate
Witten went at once to his wife, while
Mr.. Williams sought the assistance
of physician.

ANOTHER FORM OF ADvERTIs.
ING

Mrs. John w. Baughman bought a
box of Strawberries from the Riggle
grocery the other day, and while
dumping the contents of the same
she happened to see lady's name on
the bottom of the box. She turned
the box over to John and the same
is now on display in the Griffith &
Baughman office window. The name
inscribed thereon is Velma Wilson,
Alma, Arkansas; black hair; May
10, 1916, and is undoubtedly the
name of the lady who packed that
particular box of berries. John sus-
poets that the lady in question is
matrimonially inclined, and being Of
a helpful nature, he is willing to ad-
vertise her to the extent of keeping
her name where the love-lorn lads of
Liberal can gaze upon it. This lit
tie ad. isn'a costing the lady cent,
but if anything comes of it we would
enjoy the pleasure of shaking a foot
at the "nooptials."
