BOOTLEGGERS AND CASK ETS

A considerable hallabaloo was rails

the officers of the law. They should
have known better than to even sus-

en- if suspected, should not have dar-
ed to open it, even in the discharge
of their duty, say these critics.
Well, who commenced it? Why
should coffin be suspected? Have
not the bootleggers violated every
law in their miserable business. If
memory serves these violators of the
law have used every device from imi-
tation Bibles to ceskcts, nd iniinitum
every other conceivable means. They
began it, and should be held respon-

MAY FIND TREASURES IN JERU.
SALEM.

Richmond, April 1O.-That General
Allenby should have DESTROYED Jeru-
salem and given excavators the op-
portunty of uncarthing the treasures
OF the ancient city, is the opinion OF
the Rev. Dr.. Camden Cobern, mis-
sionary and archaeoiogist, who is
preaching IN Richmond twice daily
TINS week. The minister commented
upon the riches discovered in other
parts of the Holy Land and in Egypt.
but stated that the Jewish capital is
almost as it was centuries before
Christ
1t is thought that if the streets of
the city could be eXcavated, there is
a probability Of finding the treasures
which are said to be buried under
Solomon's Temple and also beneath
other temples now used as mosques.
In the mind of Dr.. Cobern it is not
TOO much to expect that the Ark of
the Covenant is buried under Il mod
ern building or street, while the tombs
OF Solomon, David, Absalom and 9TH
ers of the ancicnts might be easily
found.
Easy to Prove Authenticity.
No difficulty would be experienced
according to the visitor, in proving the
sepulcErc authentic, because the in
scripti0n would be altogether deci-
phcrahlc. This would not he true of
buried manuscripts as is the case in
Egypt, ewing to the climate of Pal
ostIne, which is moist The only
treasure OF great value yet found is
the royal seal of Jeroboam which is
more beautiful than that of any mod
cln sovereign. So exquisite is its
Workmanship that The sultan of Tur-
key claimed IL as his personal prop
erty, ordering the Jewels sent to Con
stantinople.
There are crowns, sceptres and brace

hands of the British, according to DR..

THE HIGHLANDS CONVEN-
TION.

Tho platform adoptd by thtc Re-
publican Senatorial convention at
Richards last Saturday, is published
in another column, in this issue. In
reading the document one is reminded
of n plate of weak soup lacking badly
q dash or two Of pepper sauce or
something or other to give it taste and
strength. However, this much is as
sured. 1t is an easy platform, broad
enough for the candidate TO stand OH
and even walk around OH, quite sim
liar to many of its predecessors in this
regard.
The declaration in the first para
graph is weak and indefinite. There
is no out-nnd-out declaration favoring
q league of nations. 1.-THE hope" is
expressed that "the representatives of
th allied nations may be able TO reach
an agreement that will end this war;"
promote peace among tn nations, and
secure the early return of our SOL
der boys to their native land" All of
which is well enough so far as it
goes. But, as said before, the para
graph is insipid, lacks the force OF
positive, ringing declaration in IA
vor of Il clean cut league of nations
The declaration cannot be said to OPP
pose league of nations, only indulg-
es "the hope" That an agreement will
be reached, the war ended and our
boys returned, all of which is well.
innocent enough, but lacking out-and-
out expression Of purpose to support
or oven endorse the efforts of the
present peace conference. No member
Of the convention at Rchlands who
voted for this high-sounding, world
embracing resolution, would admit
for moment that he is not in favor
Of q League of Nations. Then why
not say SO? Why cover up the main
which perhaps the majority of the
members OF the convention did not
appreciate. We believe that the think
ing men of both parties in this dis
piCl are huuutciy DcHlHu MT. w ilSol
and Mr.. Taft and other distinguish
ed men favoring II strong league Of
nations, and would have been encour-
aged and pleased had the Republican
convention embodied clcar-cu;.
strong plan in their platform, plcdg-
Ing whatever influence and support
possible TO the body of great men now
wrestling day and night with the
worlds greatest problem.
This, and other declarations OF the
platform are of interest to all the
people of the country, and district,
and the Clinch Valley News claims
the right to approve or disapprovc
any policy OF the party whose repre-
sentative is to occupy seat in the
senate of Virginia, not MS partisan
but as n citizen of the community,
interested in its welfare.
