BRYAN AND WILSON
IN CONTROL
No Nomination Last
Night. Chances in
Favor of Bryan.
The latest news from Baltimore
this morning is thnt no nomination
was mado last night, but that the
Bryan-Wilson forces were in control
of the convention. The dispatches in
the morning papers indicate thnt
the nomination may go to Bryan,
jy Harmony pervails!
Bulletins of the progress of the
convention will he posted in front of
the News office during the day as the
news is received
WOODROW WILSON.
Baltimore, Md., June 25. ? Under- i
standing at 11 o'clock this morning <
was that on the first ballot Virginia |
would vote 15 or 16 for Underwood
and 8 or 9 for Wilson.
Governor Mann, who, as half a i
delegate at large, has half a vote, i
was thought to be against Wilson,
but after his arrival here this morn?
ing it was reported that he would
support Wilson. This announcement
was tiie nearest thing to a surprise
that had happened as far as the Vir?
ginia deleagtion is concerned."
"The Virginia delegation, as a
whole, is antagonistic to Bryan, to |
Wilson, and to a progressive plat- ;
form."
The above clippings are from spe- ]
cials from Baltimore to a Richmond
paper. The opposition on the part of
the Virginia delegation to a progres?
sive candidate is no "surprise." ,
When the Norfolk convention opposed i
an instructed delegation it was clear :
from the start that the wishes of the
Democrats of the State would nut be
carried out. Th? steam roller was
brought prominently into use, and
the Wilson people were squelched in
the start. At this writing, ^Wednesday
afternoon, the final vote _of the Vir?
ginia delegation is not known. It may
be that Virginia will enroll herself in
the ranks of the reactionaries.
On the vote for temporary chair?
man, Parker received 14 and Bryan
10 Virginia votes. The papers state
that Governor Mann, Lieutenant
Governor Ellyson and A.B. Williams,
Editor of Roanoke Times, with elev?n
others, voted for Judge Parker.

success hns almost uniformly crowned

Mrs. Yuell and a compeUnt chorus
leader. Mrs. Yuell is expected to
reach Tazewell next Sunday to orga?
nize the women for work, and the
chorus leader is expected on Thurs?
day, July 4th, to organize nnd train
the choir. The singers in all the'
choirs of the town are cordially in?
vited to help in the music. A most
cordial invitation is extended to the

all the churches to attend and assist

believe his preaching will commend
itself to the Christian conscience of
(be entire community.

William Reese, son of Mr. and Mrs.
I'. M. Hawkins, of this town, died

reavement to his parents and family.

io cut his knee accidentally, with an
ixe. It is Said that he attempted to
treat the wound himself, using car
jolie acid, and putting in a number
if stitches with an ordinary needle
mil thread. Blood poison developed,
ind he was brought here in bad shape.
Finally a large artery in his leg burst
>r sloughed, and as a final resort the
leg was amputated as the only nope of
saving his life. The operation was
entirely successful, but the shock was
too great for the patient in his en?
feebled condition, and his death fol?
lowed soon afterwards. His remains
were taken to Maxwell, his home,
Monday morning, for burial.
Mr. Crabtree was well known and
highly esteemed in this county, where |
he was born and reared. He was a
brother of J. B. Crabtree, mayor and
merchant, at Richlands. He leaves a
wife and several children to mourn
the loss of husband and father. The
stricken family have the sympathy of
the entire community.

TAZEWELL
JAET & SHERMAN
j TO LEAD_G. 0. P.
Reactionary Candidates Are
Named by Republican Con?
vention?The Platform.
The Chicago Republican Convention
has re-nominated Mr. Taft for Presi?
dent, and also Mr. Sherman for vicc
President. Mr. Roosevelt and his fol?
lowers, who bolted the regular con?
vention, held a separate convention
in another ball, and Mr. Roosevelt
was nominated on an independent
ticket. The informal naming of
Roosevelt is said to be chiefly for the
purpose of affecting a temporary or?
ganization. It is proposed to bold a
national convention in August, and
Mr. Roosevelt says that he will glad?
ly step down and aside if the conven?
tion shall think best to select another
standard bearer.
The platform adopted at Chicago
contains these two significant state?
ments, among others: "We affirm
our belief in the protective tariff,"
and "wo rejoice at the success of the
Republican party. " Same old state?
ments, same old candidates, same old
gang in control. Of course they do
not expect to win in November.
The following is the platform
adopted at the Chicago Convention:
The Republican party, assembled
by its representatives in national eon
vent ion, declares unchanging faith in
a government of the people by the
people, and for the people. We renew
our allegiance to the; principles of the
Republican party and devotion to the
cause of Republican institutions. The
Republican party now, as it always
lias been the party of advanced and
?(instructive statesmanship, reaffirms
its intention to uphold the authority
and integrity of the courts, as oppos?
ed to special privilege ar,d monopoly ;
HON. OSCAR"W. UNDERWOOD
favors the enactment of laws supple- 1
mentary to the existing anti-trust act '
to define as criminal offenses those in
restraint of trade; favors more <
promptness in the administration of i
the law and the avoidance of delays
and technicalities. i
We affirm our belief in the protec?
tive tariff. We hold that a tariff for
revenue only would destroy many in?
dustries, throw many out of employ?
ment. We will support a prompt
scientific investigation of the high
cost of living with the aim of decreas?
ing it. We need measures to prevent
money panics and better currency fa?
cilities in the west and south. We re?
affirm our adherence to the principle
of appointment to public office based
on proved fitness. We stand commit?
ted to the maintenance, extension and
enforcement of the civil service law.
I We favor additional legislation to pre?
vent corporations from contributing
funds to campaigns.
We rejoice at success of the Re?
publican party. We favor the conser?
vation of natural resources; favor
legislation looking toward the estab?
lishment of a parcels post; believe in
the maintenance of an adequate navy ;
favor a revisetl merchant marine;
favor flood prevention in the Mississ?
ippi Valley and continuance of the
policy of reclamation of arid lands
and improvement of rivers nnd har?
bors; favor development of the re
jources of Alaska; pledge the enact?
ment of laws to give relief from the
evil of undesirable immigration; fa?
vor laws furthering safety at sea,
with adequate life saving apparatus.
We challenge successful criticism of
Ithe administrations of McKinley,
Roosevelt nnd Taft.

and such?echoes from Chicago, that's
all?the nightmare of the Republican
crash and ciush of the head-on collision
of Republican hopes, at Waterloo,
last week, That'a all.

ROADJROIIBLE
Supervisors Demand Resigna?
tion of Efficient Superin?
tendent by July the First.
The Board of Supervisors of Rus?
sell County, at n meeting hold June
14th, in no uncertain language, re?
quested Mr. S. H. Fletcher, Agent,
to resign nt once. The resolution
adopted hy the Board, ns published in
the Lebanon News, recites, that "the
people of the county are becoming
restive and indignant nt the manner
in which the road work of the county
is being carried on" etc., and that
Mr. Fletcher, Agent, be requested to
vacate at once, and the State High?
way Commissioner was requested to
send an engineer to the county nt
once. The above is taken from the
Lebanon News of the Ulsf Mr. Flet?
cher is the efficient enshier of the
bank at Lebanon, a very successful
business man, and a gentleman of
Undoubted integrity, but it appears
that he is not acceptable to the Bonrd
as a road man, which is no reflection
upon him. Not every man knows how
to build roads.
We insisted from the start that
roads should be built by'expcrts under
State supervision, and in many cases,
where the counties undertook the work
independently, there has been trou?
ble, and the Highway Commission had
to be called in at last. In one, per?
haps more, instances, a certain sec?
tion of road, put down by a man who
didn't know his business, hud to be
dug up, and put down again, when an
experienced engineer came along. We
don't know anything about the Rus?
sell situation, and these remarks lire
not intended to apply, hut it gives a
good opportunity for us to say some?
thing.

EDITORIAL
J Mr. Bryan's protest against Judge
Parker's selection as temporary chair?
man of the convention has a deeper
significance than appears on the sur?
face. Mr. Bryan protests against
Judge Parker's nomination for the
same reason, or on the same ground,
that the Progressive element at Chi?
cago protested against Senator Root.
Mr. Parker and Mr. Root are both
Ryan lawyers, representatives of the
conseivatives or reactionaries. Mr.
Parker is Tammany s man, named
and exploited by Tammany, and Mr.
Bryan's protest is a protest against a
boas, and a very objectionable boss,
at that. The trouble is to be regret
- ted, however, but "truth," in Mr,
i Bryan's dictionary means the ea?<
