in the spring of 1911, the faction led
by Senator Bailey, of Texas. put him
forward as n candidate for Democratic
leader. William ]. Bryan Interested
himself in the fight, urging that be-
cause of Mr. Martins tariff votes he

said, "give every dollar that is neces-

his family were summoned to his bed
side, but he rallied within day or two
and later received some visitors and
showed keen interest in public af-
fairs.
Thomas Staples Martin, who had the
almost unique distinction Of being
elected to the United States Senate
without ever having held any other
political office, was born at Scottsville,
Albemarle County, Virginia, July 20,
1847, the son of John Samuel and
Martha Ann (Staples) Martin, and was
tute and at the University of Virginia.
His attendance at the former insti-
tuition was much interrupted by service
| with it's battalion of cadets in the
Confederate army during the last years
| of the Civil War. He did not complete
the course at the university, spending
only two sessions there, when the death
Of his father summoned him home.
He then studied law privately while
managing his fathers business, and
was admitted to the bar in the fall of
1869. His purpose was to devote his
attention entirely to that profession,
in which he soon began to achieve en-
viable success. But he was irresisti-
bly, drawn into politics during the
"Readjuster" movement, when General
Malone and Mr.. Riddleberger disrupt
ed the Democratic party.
His friend John S. Barbour was
chairman of the state committee of
the party, and he made Mr.. Martin a
member of the committee. In that
capacity the young lawyer attained
statewide prominence by his opposi-
tion to the "Readjuster" movement
| lat H.
habiltation of the regular Democratic
party. He persistently declined, how
ever, to accept nomination to office,
his only public services being as a
member Of the board Of visitors to the
Miller Manual Labor School and to the
University Of Virginia. Meanwhile he
became prosperous corporation law
yer.
Elected to Senate in 1895
He was finally persuaded by his
| political and professional friends to
enter the contest for United States
Senator in December, 1893, for the
term beginning in March. 1896 His
competitor was General Fitzhugh Lee,
and when Mr.. Martin won there was a
storm of protests against the defeat Of
| Lee by newcomer in politics. But
shortly after he had taken his seat
Virginians were convinced they had
made no mistake in electing him. He
left snowy oratory to his senior col
league, Senator Daniels, and gave his
attention to the business Of legislation.
He was appointed to several important
committees, in all of which he was a
diligent and influential worker. In
| December, 1899, he was candidate for
reelection, his competitor in the Demo
cratic party being Governor j. Hoge
Tyler; Mr.. Martin~won in the Demo-
cratic caucus on the first ballot
by a vote of 103 to 27. In 1905 he
was again reelected for the term be-
ginning in March, 1907.
During his third term, in the tariff
| session Of 1907, he voted with the Re-
publicans no fewer than eighteen times

They Liked the Show.

The Uncle Sammy Minstrel show,
headed by Harry Baisden and John
Arnold, former well known members
of the 163rd Depot Brigade band,
played in Boone New Years. Says
the News-Republican
Although the audience both after
noon and evening was comparatively
small. Uncle Sammy's Ministries, pre-
scented at the Virginia theater New
Years. was lively and well received
by the people In the afternoon
things were not quite in running or
der, but the evening program was
splendid and went off without hitch.
The jokes were snappy and the songs
the latest, several of them having
been written by Harry Baisden and
John Arnold, members of the company
and formerly of this city. The quar-
tette, and the musical trio Of an ac-
Gordon and two saXaphones were en-
corcd several times.
A talk by Sgt. Daniel p. Mccartney,
20 years old, and recently returned
from France, where he took part in
the battles of Luneville, Chateau
Thierry and Lorraine, was an excel
lent feature of the program. Except
ing Sgt. Mccartney, the members of
the company were all members of the
163d Depot Brigade band, and have
unusual musical talent. Real soldier
pep w:is in evidence throughout the
minstrel.

this division on the front about a
month. There isn't anyone in here

We were ahead of everything the
last three days before the armistice
was signed.
There was about thirty of us slept
in an old stone cave the last week
and felt mighty good when we were
down in it.
We went up stairs one morning
and built fire to cook some break
fast and had been up about five min
utes when the Germans shot the
chimney off from our house. They
shot for about an hour at the house
with three inch guns. We went back
