revolution if the military autocracy
had not avcrted it by bringing on the
worst war known to history.
Naturally compulsory military SER
vice accompanies Mr.. Roosevlet's reg
ulated monopoly and German indus
trial efficiency. Experience in Europe
has shown that general military dis
ciplinc is necessary in order to educate
II populacc to such an order of things
1t would be doubly necessary in a
country where every one is taught to
believe that "thc Republic is oppor-
tunity."
1t might seem that cour,ry in
which labor works shorter hours at
larger wages than any where else,
and in which capital is more richly
rewarded than anywhere else, had no
special need for turning its back on
its back on its own traditions and
taking for a model the Prussian theo-
ny that citizens exist only for the
benefit of the State. The need does
not exist, but big business, like Mr..
Roosevelt, is never satisfied with what
it has. 1t wants more profits and
less competition. lie wants Office, so
he is ready to play Plutocracy's game
if plutocracy will play his game.
1t is an attractive combination, and
it is apparent from the Philadelphia
speech that the Gary dinner has al
ready brought fruit. Having found
out what Wall Street wants, Mr..
Roosevelt tenders n sample of his
goods with the assurance that he will
do whatever lies in his power to
Prussianize the Republic if Wall street
will again use its money and its in
lluence to put him back in the White
House.

lie, when reading such wall, will
reach one of two conclusions, either
that the people of Dickinson county
and the "others," in tho same cate
CORY outside, are an unapprcciativc,
sorry lot, or else the papers in qucs-
ton must be mighty poor affairs. We
know, only in a general way, of local
conditions, but we do know that this
old thrcadbarc custom and habit of
putting newspaper men on the charity
list without exception, almost, is Il
Islander and an injustice, and that
the editors themselves are responsible
for the false impression. If the above
pictures are drawn true TO life, which
we don't believe is the case, then we
should thank Providence that we don't
live in Dickinson county, nor in West
Virginia where Their ARE others in
the same boat"

To Prussianizc the Republic.

G'rom the New York Worldly
Mr.. Roosevelt in his PHILADELPHIA
speech frankly offers himself to Wall
Street as Il candidate for President
on the platform Prussianizing the
United States for the profit of big
business.
Unless the Republican Natinal con-
vcntion is blind to its financial oppor-
tunitics Mr.. Roosrvclt's programme,
with Mr.. Roosevelt as tic candidate,
ought OF yield campaign fund har-
vest not equallcd since Mark Hanna
rcsolutely set forth to uphold the "na-
tional honor"
MIR. Roosevelt intends to uphold the
national honor too, and by the simple
process of giving to the United States
a German Industrial and military sys-
to.l.
Under the existing order ofthings
tie United States has become the
richest country in the world, with the
most widely distributed prosperity.
Therefore we must stop solving Amer
lean problems in the American way
and go to solving them in the Ger
man way. We must have al large

efficient as Germany is efficient" and
the way to do this is to establish reg
ulated monopoly in place of cmpeti.

LET STUART HANDLE III.

Some discussion has arisen in the
Richmond papers over who should be
trusted with the enforcement of the
prohibition laws of the State. The
substance of the question raised is,
should we risk Governor Stuart, in
view of the stand he took in the pro-
hibition election, to enforce the laws
that are enacted?
Of course, such suggestions cmanat-
ed from the Governors enemies. No
right thinking man in the State would
think for Il moment that Governor
Stuart would not enforce to the ex-
IRENE any law put on the statute
books. Away with such insinuations.

Public Speaking at Emory & Henry.

Emory, Va, Jan. 22.-Emeory and
Henry College, has always maintain
ed an excellent standard Of public
speaking. This department has been
one of the principal feature; since the
foundation of the institution. There
are scarcely any of the alumni byt
who can relate some of their literary
society experiences and recall many
pleasant memories Of some speech
which they made while in school mt
Emory. The Hermesian and Gallo
pean literary societies have always
sent out men to the various sections
of the country who have been able to
more or less degree to lead their
respective communities in public
speaking.
1t is the desire of these societies
to promote the art of public sueaking
in all of the high schools throughout
this section of the country. In per-
suance of this resirc there will
held at Emory and Henry College on
February % on Inter-H High School
Defamation Contest under the aus
pieces of the Hcrmesian and Gallo
pean Literary Societies. Any regu-
lar student from an accredited high
school will be eligible to participate
in this contest. Letters have been
sent out to all the principals of the
higs schools inthis section of the coun-
try urging them to send representa-
tivcs to this contest. Already large
number of these high schools have re-
sponded and an excellent contest is
assured. A medal valued at
$500 will be given to the winner in
this contest Besides this the young
man who is SO fortunate as to win |
this trophy will have had the satisfac-
ton of competing with the represen-
tatlvcs of some of the strongest high |
schools in this section of the country.
1t is yet not too late for some of the
high schools who have not signified |
their desire to enter this contest to
send in the name of their representa- +,
tive if they take the matter up at
once. 1t is to be hoped that all of
the high schools in this section of
the country will cooperate in making
this contest one of the principal
events of the year and thus encour-
age the cause of public speaking by
creating an additional interest along
this line through the high school stu
dents.

a Knock Out.

If the people engaged in the liquor
business ask for compensation for any
pecuniary loss brought to them by the
prohibition, very complete answer
can be made to them. Do they give
back to the wife the value of the
husband drink has taken from her?
DO they give back to the children
the father drink has brutalzcd? Do
they give back to the mother the son
whom drink has ruined? Do they
recompensc society for the moral dis
ease which they spread? Do they
give back to the government the pu-
rity for which they have substitute
ed rottenness and corruption? Until
they make restitution to the family
and to the nation for the injury that
they have done and are doing, they
cannot ask from society compensa-
ton for any money that they may
lose because they have invested in
business which they knew to be con-
spiracy against the body, the mind
and the soul of their victims.-Wil-

THE NEWEST RErIEDY
FOR
Backache, rheumatism and DrOpsy.

Kidney, Bladder and Uric. Acid troubles
bring misery to many. When tho kidneys
are weak or diseased, these natural filters
do not cleanse tho blood sufficiently, and
the poisons are carried to all parts Of tho
body. There follow depression, aches
and pains, heaviness, drQwsiness, irrita-
bility, headaches, chilliness and rheu-
matsm. In some people there arc sharp
pains in tho back and loins, distressing
bladder disorders and sometimes obstln.
ate dropsy. The uric acid sometimes
forms into gravel or kidney stones. When
the uric acid affects tho muscles and
joints, 1t causes lMmbago, rheumatism,
"Anuric." W
During digestion uric acid Is absorbed
Into the sS stem from meat eaten, and
even IRON some vegetables. Tho moor
kidneys get tired and backache begins.
