HONDON'S STATUE OF WASH
INGTON.

Boissevane. Va, Sept 81.
Dear Mr. Editor:
When you are in Richmond if you
will step into the rotunda of the cap
itol you can see Houdon's statue of
Washington. 1t is wonderful piece
of work, well worth seeing.
In 1888 Houdon spent many weeks
at Mount Vernon until he caught
Washington in the right pose and
with the right expression, then he
gave us the statue we now have.
The face is strong, lean, lined, of
great power and charm. Look at it
long and the whole statue seems to
be vital, as if it could raise an arm,
give n command. deliver an Grafton,
step down from it's pedestal. Moth
ing better than this-everyone should
see it.
Forty years ago had you climbed
the steps from the rotunda into the
library you would have seen two n;c-
lures of Washington placed near to-
gether on the wall One of them very
much resembled Houdons statue. The
other was a great fat. full-moon.

thing is in the same boat. To place
an untruth forever before the eyes
OF innocent children is a crime be-

THE COURT HOUSE MEETING.

The Republican meeting at the
Court House OH last Saturday after
noon, was addressed by one Major
Morris, of Kentucky, and by Col. Jas.
S. Browning, of Kentucky. There was
a large crowd, including quite num-
Der of ladies. Jas. w. Hartman, Ex-
Commonwealth Attorney, presided,
and introduced the speakers.
The address of Mr.. Morris, and
the meeting generally, created but
little enthusiasm in this town. Many
of the leading Republicans did not
take the time and trouble to attend
the meeting.
The speaker, report says. spoke
against the League of Nations, and
told his audience that if they wanted
n league of nations, to vote for Cox,
if they did not want league, vote
for Harding. This was frank, cam

THEY ARE GOING HOME"

The Progressives in the Republi-
can party are joining the Democra-
tic party. The reactionaries in the
Democratic party are joining the Re-
publican party. "The boys are going
home," as one man expresses it.
The Republican platform is reac-
tionary throughout. Senator Hard
ing, the Republican nominee, stands
on the Neutrality-suspicious. Hanna, Wall
Street platform. The big corpora
tions are for Harding. What does this
mean for the great army of work
ing people in this country. Does it
mean a square deal by the capitalists
land big corporations? A few years
ago high tariff Republican admins
trations, piled up millions at the ex-
pense of the laborer. For the PAST
eight years, during Democrayic adj
ministration, laboring men for the
first time in their lives, have had
money to buy~homes and live decent
ly. Listen. A Baltimore manufacture
er said few days ago, that, altho
ne WAS Democrat he will vote for
Harding, because che (Harding) will
keep labor in its place" keep labor
in its place" This same "Boss" said
that Wilson is too favorable to labor.
President Wilson's attitude towards
labor has, in more than one instance
saved the country from serious
troubles. The capitalist and the la
boring man are each entitled to a
fair, square deal. The exodus of Re-
dictionary Democrats from the party,
and the coming of progressive Repub-
licans into the Democratic party, is
most significant. At any rate it is
well. Birds of feather will flock to-
gether. And why shouldn't they?

LISTEN TO THE FRONT PORCH
CLIMBER.

"The one great failure to make
the most of Americas leadership in
the world was due to the fact that
one man attempted to speak, not
only for America, but for the re-
mainder of the world as well. |
should not do that. 1 am perfectly
frank to say to you that l am with
out single program constructive in
character about an associations Of
nations. do know this one thing
definitely, however, the Democratic
nominee says he is favor of going
into the League as it was fashioned
at Versailles. I'm not in favor of
going into that league. When Pm
elected President the first thing I'll
try to do is to find plan for an
association behind which all Amer
lea will stand."- Senator Harding at
Baltimore.
There are two statements in the
above extract, one of them sensible
and reassuring, which is, that, Sena-
tor Harding will not attempt to
speak for America and the world as
did President Wilson. OF course not.
He would look and appear grand in
such n place, wouldn't he? This
statement shows that, at least Hard
ing realizes his own limitations.
The other statement that he is not
in favor of going into the league
and that he will try to decide on
something after he is elected, is not
SO reassuring.

COLORED WOMEN REGISTER

According to dispatches the COL
ored women of the state are showing
commendable activity to qualify
themselves to vote in November.
The papers state that the colored
women are more intelligent than the
men, and have less difficulty in re-
gistering. The white women of the
state must look to their laurels, else
their colored sisters will beat them
to it. Every white woman and every
colored woman as well, owe it to the
country and to themselves, to excr-
else the right of Suffrage. Bear in
