A TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.

Editor Clinch Valley News:
l. cannot pass by longer my de-
sire to pay q just tribute to my
friend Hon. Joseph Gillespie. who
has gone on his Last Long Journey
to I believe happier Land. 1 had
not had the fact of his death brought
so close to me until l visited the
Court House last Saturday. Always
before, with smiling countenance
and warm hand shake have been
met in the thirty years l have been
residence of this county.
To those who knew him intimate
ly he had remarkable traits Of char
acter. There was an open generous
side of his nature possessed by very
few men of this generation. He did
not want any act of his in charity or
in the other many activities of his
life to be paraded.
He was ready at all times to help
forward any good work. His politi-
cal associates will miss him for he
was wise in council and quick in ex-
ecutien. TO his people and relatives
he was always Kind and thoughtful.
He had said to his wife: will soon
be through with the cattle men and
then tomorrow we will visit Jeff, his
nephew. How are the plans of men
set at naught by a higher power.
Nephew and uncle passed into
Shadow Land almost side by side. To
those who knew them both as this
writer did in the unrestrained in
timacy of friendship. We believe if
there be heaven that 10. Gillespie
and Jeff Hoge are today enjoying
sweet converse about those of their
loved ones they have left behind.

The White House, Oct. 8

"My Fellow Countrymen:
"The issues of the present
campaign are of such tremen-
dous Importance and of such
far reaching Significance for
the influence of the country and
the development of its future
relations, and l have necessari-
ly had so much to do with their
development. that / am sure
you will think it natural and
proper that l should address to
you few words concerning
them. Everyone who sincerely
believes in government by the
people must rejoice at the turn
affairs have taken in regard TO
this campaign. This election is
to be genuine national refer
endum. The determination of
great policy upon which the in
huence and authority of the
United States in the world
must depend is not to he left
to groups of politicians of
either party, but Is to be rcferr-
ed to the people themselves for
n sovereign mandate to their
representatives. They are to in
struct their own government
what they wish done.
''The chief question that is
put to you is, of course this:
Do you want your country's
honor vindicated and the treaty
of Versailles ratified. Do you In
particular approve the League
of Nations as organized and
empowered in that treaty? And
do you wish to see the United
States play it's responsible part
in 1t. You have been grossly
misled with regard to the trea-
ty, and particularly with re-
gard to the proposed character
of the League Of Nations by
those who have assumed the
serious responsibility of oppos-
ing it. They have gone so far
that those who have spent their
lives, as l have spent my life,

the great expectations which
they created by entering the
war ani enabling the other
great nations of the world TO

clusion. to the confusion of

Article Ten of the covenant of

false. There is nothing In the
covenant which In the least in
terferes with or impairs the
right Of Congress to declare or
not declare war according 10 its

SIN AUTO ACCIDENTS NEAR

Pocahontas, Oct. 2.-Six automo-
bile accidents have occurred here

chimes have overturned, two of them
going down an embankment into the
river; one exploded, and the other
was struck by freight train. There
were no fatalities.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. G.. Mulholland
and children were badly shaken up
in an automobile accident which
landed them in Bluestone river at
Bramwell and wrecked his Dodge
car, after turning over a few times
going down the bank. Mr.. Mulhol-
land and family were out in the car
when a big car came up behind,
driven by E. F. Brown, of Worth, w.
Va, at rapid rate. Mr.. Brown
blew and Mr.. Mulholland halted on
the side next to the river and as near
to the edge as he could go with safe
ty, but the big car struck him from
the rear and also from the side,
turning the Dodge car over the bank.
Mrs. Mulhollend was badly bruised
but none was seriously injured. Mr..
Brown came to Pocahontas next day
and offered to make good the dam
age to the car.
T. M. Arlington, of Boisseyain,
turned his car over Monday and Sc
verely injured hiWself.

getting gasoline from a car with the
aid of carbide lamp caused explo-
sion which burned his face and de-
stroyed the car. Franklin will re-
cover from his burns.

named Sam Tabor went over into
the creek with his car near the. steel
tipple in R6cahontas, causing con-
siderable damage to the machine.
Chas. w. Green, of McComas,
came to Pocahontas for q cook.
While crossing the railroad at Sim
mons on the return trip the car was
struck by freight train. The oc-
cupants saved themselves by jump
ing but the woman cook was injur-
ed.
Frank Watson's car went over the
bank in Laurel Creek Monday morn
| ing, turning over about four times
with him, he escaped serious injury.
COL James S. Browning and Henry
C. Galloway addressed the voters of
