TR|NKLE OPENS CAMPAIGN
Is Well Received in Address to
Large Audience of Votrs in
Pulaski County.

Hon. E. Lee Trinkle opened his
campaign for Congress in Pulaski
Monday before an audience that pack
ed every available seat in the Opera
House, while hundreds more stood
outside the front entrance and tho
side doors. There would have been
several thousand to hear him had
there been an auditorium large
enough to accommodate them.
He was introduced in n pleasing
manner by Hon. James T. Trolinger,
q near kinsman, and formerly q mem
ber of the Virginia House of Dele
gates.
AS Mr.. Trinkle came forward he
was received with loud and long con-
tinued applause, which was repeated
Mt frequent intervals as he proceeded
eloquently with cogent arguments and
luminous exposition to point out the
various. admirable features in the
large amount of constructive legisla
tion that has been passed by n Dem
ocratic Congress under the wonder
full leadership of Woodrow Wilson.
He was also cheered to the echo
when he paid his respects to Slemp
and Hughes and excoriated them with
biting sarcasm and whitening ridicule.
When he concluded hundreds came
forward TO grasp his hand and pledge
him their support.
1t was indeed a "field day" for
Trinkle, and has started such a wave
of enthusiasm in his favor as bids
fair to overwhelm Slemp.

MUCH BOOZE DESTROYED
COnfiscated "John Barleycorn'
Running Down Cutters in
PocahOntas.

Reports reaching here from Poca-
hontas were to the effect that there
was weeping and gnashing of teeth
among certain of its citizens yester
day over the execution of the order
of the court that the large amount
of liquor and beer recently confiscat-
ed in that town be destroyed. Com
monwealth's Attorney, James w.
Harman and Judge Fulton Kegley,
Of the Tazewell- Circuit Court, re-
ceived the lions share of the con-
demnation over the part they took in
the enforcement of the dry laws in
Pocahontas, mention of which trials
has been made in this paper.
Deputy Sheriff George Rosenbaum
and policeman Dencn were charged
by the court to destroy the booze anil
proceeded to the place of execution"
yesterday morning followed by n
large crowd, estimated at 500 people.
When they reached the scene of ac-
tion, many Of the old topers are said
to have provided themselves with re-
ceptacles from teaspoons to milk
buckets and vainly endeavored to
catch q portion of the "life-saver" as
it trickled down the cutters of Poca-
nontas on its way to the Blucstone
River. On account of the terrific heat,
and the consequent evaporation of the
liquid, little of it could be saved, and
N their desperation the "boys" fell
upon their knees and gave up in des-
pair
Many Of the citizens of our neigh
bor town, who are sometimes wont to
forget things for q season." are
said to threaten charges against the
responsible authorities for this rock
less waste of such valuable merchan-
disc. On the other hand, Brother
Rickman, and the many other good
citizens of Pocahontas, who have been
foremost in supporting the officers in
the enforcement of the law, are said
to have stood out of whiting" dis
tance of this tragedy with that COM
pacent, self satisfied look that covers
the countenance of one who has
fought long and won a glorious and
honorable victory.

Exhibitors Urged to Prepare
Now Entries in Agricultural
and Other Departments
The Corn Show.

The Fair comes early this year, and
is now only two weeks oil. Ali ex-
hibitors should know by this time
what they will have to show i'm the
Agricultural Department. 1t has been
suggested that it will be too early to
show corn-this is not true. While
corn will not be mature, this has been
'akcn into account in preparing the
premium list, and all will be on the
same footing. The Fair Association
distributed seed corn last spring with
the understanding that every one re
ceivlng start of pure bred corr,
would bring the best 10 ears TO tn.
fnir, and | will expect to hear fror,
all of these us well rs those who were
supplied last year, even though the
corn is little past the roastinr-enr
stagc-but | feel sure that much of
1t Will be far better than this. Let
every frrmcr who has purc-brcd corn.
either white or yellow, show what he
has done with this corn this year.
Also do not overlook the fac, that
there is = nice premium on the COM
mon corn that we have been raisinr
here FOR years, and | want to see n
large exhibit in this class both of the
white and yellow varieties Bring
your corn and let us have Il mammoth
corn show.
or course, grains and grasses IN
the sheaf have already been prepared
for exhibition and from what / can
now see we are going to have the
best show i'll this line we have ever
had.
Your garden will be just rirht To
furnish good showing. Potatoes
have been finer than this year.
Let every one have his best and larg.
est ready and make the vegetable eX-
hibit the best we have ever had.
Some Of our small fruits have been
n failure this year, but with grapes
and apples we should have the larg-
est fruit exhibit we have ever had.
The outlook is good Take care in
selecting your apples and let us make
this II show of which we will be
proud. Mr.. Wall, the county demon
stratcr, will help any one in selecting
fruit or give instructions for pack
ing boxes of apples. Don't hesitate to
call OH him.
So far rs can now see we are go-
ing to have the most instructive agri-
cultural exhibit in the history of the
Fair. DO not fail to see it,
