AN EXPLANATION AND

The Clinch Valley News has been
living from hand to mouth for some
weeks so far az print paper is con-
cerned. We are able, and only at an
enormous price, to get but a weeks
supply or so at time, and do not
know just when it may be impossible
to get even this small supply. At the
same time the paper is crowded with
advertisements, as look at the
paper will show, leaving no room
scarcely TO rnews. We are afraid to
put in an extra sheet, which we would
do gladly, for fear the supply of
paper will give out. And so, it is
either leave out much we would like
to print and ought to print, or leave
out advertisements. If we leave out
the ads, we will soon have no money
to buy paper.
Subscription money, even if re-
ceived promptly, will not now buy
the necessary amount of paper. And
so, we make this explanation and
apology for the shortage in news
matter. Long articles must be cut
down, and space must be economical.
We hope and believe this state of
things will not last long. We beg in
diligence. Editors.

RAT TAILS.

Little has been said of the rat kill
ing campaign put on by The Civic
League week or so ago. 1t is known
that number of the rodents were
slain, but not all of them by any
means. A few days ago Prof. Archie
Thompson and his neighbor, Mrs. j.
A. Leslie each report number of
young chickens killed. Go on with
the rat KILN !"
And in this connection, the ladies
of the civic league complain of a lack
of cooperation on the part of the
town generally, in their drive for a
"Cleaner Town." Goodness knows
work is needed along this line. Take
look at some of the back streets
and vacant lots in this town and you
will see. Best let the cows loose.

PLATFORM IS UN
ANIMOUSLY CONDEMNED.

Montreal, June 12.-Organized la
Dor threw down the gauntlet to the
Republican party and now will appeal
to the Democrats for recognition Of
its platform demands:
This decision came when the Amer
lean Federation Federation of Labor,
in annual convention here, unanim-
ously condemned the Republican plat
form adopted in Chicago as n docu-
ment defiant in its defense of the
enemies of labor" and one that "pro-
poses an industrial enslavement and
an abrogation of rights as precious
as life itself"
Declaring that the Republican par
ty had "turned its back upon labor"
the convention instructed Samuel
Gompers and Matthew Woll l,president
and vice president of the Federation,
to submit in identical form" to the
Democratic party convention at San
Francisco the proposals of labor
which were presented by them to the
Republicans in Chicago.

THEY KEPT THEIR PROMISE.

Just about year ago, TO he exact,
June 18th, 1919, on Sunday afternoon
the new and splendid building of the
Tazcwell Motor Co., with its large
stock of cars, trucks and parts, was
totally destroyed by fire, as will be
recalled. AS there was small insur-
ance on the building, and no men,
Der of the company possessing great
wealth, the opinion was expressed by
number of business men of the
town that the rebuilding by the COM
pany would be hardly possible. On
Monday morning, the day after the
fire, while the timbers we're still
burning, the manager, Mr. l.. A.
Tynes boldly announced that it was
the purpose of the company, not on
ly to rebuild, but to build larger and
better than before. That promise wns
kept to the letter Who furnished the
money or where it came from is not
known to this writer, but it came all
right, and not from the insurance
company either. The new building
was soon rebuilt on the same site
and is a credit to the Ford Motor Co.
to the town and the entire communi.
ty.
Since the fire the company has con.

WHAT WILSON
SAID in FRANCE
Different View Taken of Presi'
dents Memorial Day Address
Than That Given Here Re-
Gently by Maj. Whitman.

President Wilson's Memorial Day
speech at Suresnes, France, May 30
1919.
The following paragraph is taken
from the Confederate Veteran for
June 1920:
an using the article on page 446
Of the Veteran for December, 1919,
giving quotation from the speech
made, by President Wilson on Memo
rial Day, 1919, at Suresnes, France,
it was hoped that correction would
be forthcoming. for it was hardly be-
lievable that the President would so
express himself as to wound the peo-
pie of the South who had so loyalty
stood for him; but it was only re-
Gently the Presidents Secretary wrote
that it has misquotation and gave
an excerpt from the speech, as fol-
lows:
"I look for the time when every
man who now puts his counsel against
the united service OF mankind under
the League of Nations will be just
as ashamed of it as if he now re-
GREETED the union of the States"
The quotation as used in December
was: 81 look for the time when every
man who now puts his counsel against
the united service of mankind under
the League of Nations will be just
as ashamed Of itas he is who regrett-
cd the union of the States"
The extract from Mr.. Wilson's
speech, as given by his Secretary, is
the same, word for word, as that pub
lished in the "Stars and Stripes" the
American paper published In France
by the A. E. F. The paper in which
this address appears bears date June
9Th, 1919, just six days after the
speech was delivered. Let's analyze
the sentence and see to whom the
President refers. "I look for the time
when every man who now puts his
counsel against the League of Ma
tions will be just as ashamed" Who,
ask, twill be just as ashamed?
"The man who puts his counsel
against the League of Nations" Who
ask may regret the Union of the
States? "The man who now puts his
counsel against the League of Ma
tions." Can language be palmer? The
President did not refer to q North
ern man or southern man, but he
did refer to "the man who now puts
his counsel against the League of
Nations" 1t is inconceivable that Mr..
Wilson referred to those who fought
under the "Stars and Bars" when
many of the bodies sleeping before
him were the sons of Confederate
veterans. The little feeling that de-
veloped in our camp on June 3rd was
caused by a misquotation of the
language used by President Wilson
in his memorial address in France.

WE LIKE HIM.

While the newspapers and others
are raking up things about tho Re
publican candidate for President, we
would like to say, they've got nothing
on us. When the Senator was in
Tazewell several years ago speaking
for Mr.. Slemp, he called at this Of
flee, sat down at. the linotype, pro-
duced his makeup" rule, got grease
and ink on his hands, cleaned by using
q peice of newspaper he picked from
the floor, spit on the Office stove, and
made himself generally at home. He
runs newspaper at Marion, Ohio,
and is practical printer himself,
and told William J. Bryan in Chicago
the other night that he'd rather make
up the front page of his paper any
day than run for President. There
are worse fellows in the country than

REVIVAL AT PLEASANT HILL.

On Monday night, June 7th, Rev.
j. E. Graham, with the pastor, Rev.
A. S. Ulm, began preaching the old
time gospel at Pleasant Hill unoin
church. On the following Friday, Rev.
j. Newton Graham, pastor of the
Belfast charge, made his appearance
and took an active interest in the
meeting, doing most of the preach
ing during the last half of the time.
On Wednesday of the second week,
Rev. B. o. Shannon, who had been
on a vacation to his old home in
North Carolina, returned and gave
his time to the success of the re-
vival.
The result of the meeting was,
fifty-seven conversions; twenty-eight
of whom united with the Methodist
Episcopal Church, south.
The congregation made an offer
ing of $4,000 to those doing the
preaching, which came with convict
ing and converting power, and will
be long remembered by those who
gave their hearts to the Lord and
dedicated themselves to His service
in baptism.

PULASKI COUNTY TO THE
FRONT.

According to the current issue of
the Weekly News Letter, Pulaski
County leads all other counties in the
United States, in the number of farm
ers cooperating with the Department
of Agriculture for the banishment of
inferior sires. The last report made
shows that on May 1st, 1920, out of n
total of 1887 breeding stock, there
were only 81 scrubs, distributed
among eight owners, 254 farmers
having none of these scrubs.
These 81 scrubs include "a sheep,
5 cattle, 3 horses and swine. Nearly
all the leading and most substantial
farmers are already enrolled in the

LENA LOUISE PEERY.

Lena Louise, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. G. Henry Peery, North Taze-
well, died in a Bluefield sanitarium,
following an operation for appendi-
citis, on last Saturday, a. q. m. The
remains were brought to the home
at North Tazewell, from whence the
funeral and burial took place, on last
Sunday afternoon, Rev. j. M. Grove,
the pastor, assisted by Rev. w. w.
Arrowood, pastor of the Presbyterian
church, conducted the service.
Rev. c. r. Brown and Evangelist
Hicks, took part in the service. Burial
was made in the new cemetery, in
charge of undertaken Peery.
The funeral and burial service was
impressive and beautiful, if such a
service can ever by styled 'beau-
tiful." All funerals and burials are
gruesome, but this one, of this lovely
child, was robbed Of much Of the
usual gloom, by the devotion and
beautiful tributes shown. AS if to
rob the work Of the grim monster OF
its grim aspects, and as far as posi-
bic soothe the sorrow Of devoted pa
rents and prevent their hearts from
bursting with grief, thoughtful wo-
men literally covered the grave OF
the silent little sleeper. with the most
beautiful and choicest flowers Of June
the month Of fowers-at the same
time and by the same tokens, fling
ing into the teeth of the self-stylet
Destroyer" emblems of the resur
rection of the body, a belief in the
reunion of loved ones in the home oi
many mansions, when life's fitfu
dreams are over.
1t was especially noted that thii
was one of the most largely ATTENDED
funerals known to have taken plac,
in this county. People came from al
parts Of the county and out of thu
county, to express their deep sympa
thy with the grief stricken, hear

Pampered Pup Finally Loses
His Playground ON 5th Avenue

New York's most pampered pup is
about to lose the wonderful playground
that has made him the envy of every
other dog in the city. The problem of
high rentals and space shortage has
entered into the life even of the Wen
del terrier, and soon he must find
new place to bury bones and new
lawn to roll on, for the back yard of
the old Wendell home, on Fifth Avenue
just north Of Thirty-ninth Street,
maintained for years for his exclusive
pleasure, is to be covered by build
ing-a commercial building at that.
And now that this Wendell pup will
have to 60 out into the streets or the
park for his exercise and recreation, he
will have wonderful story to tell the
other fellows he meets-how all his
life was spent in million-dollar back
yard; how time and again men wanted
to buy his playground for a building
site, but his master, old John G. Wen
del, who died two years ago, wouldn't
sell it because he could not deprive the
little terrier of his pleasure.
He can tell all the other dogs the
story of Fifth Avenue and its remark
able changes in recent years, for he
had q grand stand seat for everything.

Quoting from the speech of accept

Senator Johnson said
yesterday, in his speech of accept

Senator Harding is to be con-
