' Hon. Win. A. Jones, Congressman 'from the First District, snoke In Man? chester last Wednesday evening. The rtlchmcud Times has this to say of the epeech: "The sneaker dwelt at considerable length upon Senator Martin's record as b Senator from Virginia, and he was yery happy when he produced copies of the Congressional Jlecord to disprove certain statements and claims made In a circular that is being distributed broadcast throughout the rfiate by friends of Senator Martin. "Siime of Mr. Jones' refiitory state? ments were looked upon as most startl? ing by the audience, as they revealed the junior Senator in a d lite rent light to Unit in which some of them at leas; bad heretofore s;-. n him." Mr. .limes said, in pan: "When the Constitution or the United BUUcs was framed. 112 years ago there wns no great corporations, nor was there a mllll huire representative ih the thirteen States. Corporations had no; undertaken ti> control legislation. In tin- Stnfes then and fur many years after tlie legislatures enjoyed almost exclusive uowefc Hut that era has passed away. The only remnant of leg? islative power is the election of the United Stales Senators. PEOPLE DO NOT VOTE. '"The Constitution provides that the people vole for Presidential electors. Although ihr Constitution lias not beer, changed, as a matt a- nC fact, the people do vote f"r President. We have elec? toral colleges; tin- electors assemble at the various capitals and vote for the President, but the people have decreed Who that President shall lie. The elec? tor carries out Hie letter o? the Consti? tution, but the people have passed an Unwritten a mend men I. "They go In the polls and vote, but do not know half the lime, nor care IWhn the electors are. They know for V'bom they are voting for President. "When the Constitution was adopted (Governors were elected by the Legis? latures. Thomas Jefferson, the found? er of the Democratic party, was elect? ed Governor of Virginia by the Legis? lature. Put that day has passed. To ISay there is not a Slate whose electors nre not voted for directly by the peo? ple, and the people, If capable of elect? ing Governors and Presidents, are also capable of electing United Slates Sena? tors. "There has been a movement for n {number of years to give the people, this (privilege. Twenty-seven States hive .'declared that the constitution oughl to be changed and resolutions have b sen pent to Congress asking that tin-, ques? tion of an amendment to the Constitu? tion bo submitted to the people. Only Inst Winter Missouri and North Caro? lina, passed resolutions to that effect. "Hut one branch of Congress has ai? rways turned a. deaf oar to those ap? peals of the people. Since 1 have been In Congress about seventy-five resolu? tions have been introduced; Three of them have passed and one of those by a unanimous vote. In the last Con? gress, a Republican body, a resolution was passed providing for the submis? sion of this question to ilie people. Hut the Senate, the men who have been beneficiaries of this un-Democrallu method, killed it. "Some of the Democrats of this State have taken up this movement. Two years ago, at. Roahokc, a resolution nlring the line of the election of Sena? tors by the people was defeated by the Committee on Resolutions. A few months later two resolutions were in? troduced in the Legislature providing "that something be done, hut they were defen ted. SAME INFLUENCE. "No harm could have come from al lowlng them to pass, but the same in? fluence that defeated it at Ftoanoko was brought to bear. One of these resolu? tions was Introduced by lion. W. F. Roddy, nnd if he never goes back to the Legislature he. will have the satis? faction of knowing that he will be hon? ored because of the effort he made to give the people the privilege of choos? ing their own Senators. "After that the war came on and we were obliged for a lime to forego press? ing the question. When the war came to an end some fifty-two Democratic, citizens signed a paper calling for a convention to meet in Richmond, and in May some 700 or SGO Democrats pass? ed a resolution calling upon the State Committee to do something, but the Committee wnst bound under Hint same old Influence and denied to the people a convention to nominate in some way United States Senators. "It Isn't necessary to say who it was that stood behind this influence. Mr. Martin hasn't a friend In Virginia who would deny that It was his Influence that defeated thai proposition. He de fented it at Roanoke, ami every man knows that It was his influence that defeated It before the State Commit? tee. "I happened to be in Richmond when the appeal was made to lite committee, find was at the Jefferson Hotel when the committee would not listen to the nppeal made by distinguished citizens, nnd when the proposition was voted down, and I saw his friends surround Senator Martin at the Jefferson and congratulate him upon his big victory. "I have a right to charge that this groat movement to give the people a privilege has been taken from them by Senator Martin. "Only a few days ago he camr out In a long letter and statement that he would vote for this amendment) l don't enre what he says. I charge It hero and everywhere thin for two years he has fought this movement in season ami out,, and if he had upon any occasion shajwn his willingness to submit It to thc>T>ooplo tlv? movement would have fallen through nnd the primary wouhl have bean held long ago. I do not he Sieve he Is honest and sincere. In his expressions In this regard. Ills record goes uguliist htm. TUE REASON WHY. "I take It lor granted that every man here is in favor of having this right and privilege, and 1 will discuss it in order to Impress upon you the reasons why you do not huve It. One single man has plac-jd himself against thin movement Tor selfish motives- ? I have been around the 3t;ite a good deal-und have talked with many people on this ?tuestlon. Wherever I have been and talked the question has always been: 'Who I? the candidate for Legislature in favor or United States Senator'/' The question has never been asked us to Illness. The Richmond candidates snid nothing as to whom they favored for the Senate. "The Legislature will have many Im? portant matters before It. The mvn that constitute that body ought to he true, honest men cf ability, going there with the purpose <>f promoting the In? terests of the whole people. In 1001 the interest on the public debt will be Increased one-third; the Legislature will provide for meeting that debt'. Uut the candidates have riot been asked what they are gallig to do about that, but 'whom- do you favor for the Sen? ate'." "The lesson drawn Is Hint the elec? tion of Set.ntor should be left to the people. It seems to me that every man wh > feels an Interest in the Stute should not send people lo the Legisla? ture with only reference to the ( lection of United State;; ;? riator. '.'Some legislatures have proven that they cannot elect Senators. Of all th so elected Ins: year there was not one who was not a millionaire or rep? resent:.tivo of some big corporation'; Could Depevv or Addlcks have b'&?n elected by the people? (Cries cf 'No! No!1) "In Pennsylvania. Delaware, Utah and Oregon lhc Legislature were .una? ble to elect Senators, rind for the nesi two years those States will have but one representative In Ihe upper house of Conircss. "Some people doubt the ability of the people- to eleel better Senators than Ihoae I have mentioned, btit they can elect sound ones, and only take one day to do it in It, lo ). WAVES ROLLING HIGH. "Such things have not taken place In Virginia yet. We can point with pride to the fact that they have not taken place, but these waves are rolling hlgh et day by day, and unless we lalte Into our own hands this election of Senators we cannot tell when these things may happen. ' 'The people scorn always, at heart, to rally around the pigmy. "1 have Inkell Breill int. rest 111 this question, and It would make no differ? ence to me if the candidates were my dearest friends, I would advocate the election "?' 'ho one who was an expo? nent of i -Inclples ?advocated in my platform. "You wi ke a mistake in return in;; Se: irtin. He has not ren? dered Ice to Iii- Stat.> that warrants urn. What can he show to hi It? What great mea? sure of i>i. interest has ho advo cated? I nil .old he is a great worker, Indefatigable in securing the passage of measures of benefit to his people; What great question of public Interest lias he t-.iken active part In?" Mr. .Tones then referred to a circular that was being sent around in the in? terests of Mr. Martin. He took the circular by paragraphs and discussed each one thoroughly. He reiterated n statement thai: ho made In a speech at Houston some weeks ago in which lie declared that Senator Martin had dodged six Important votes on the day the war revenue hills wore being dls : p i. Ml of In the Senate. lie stated that he had a copy of the Congressional Record to bear him out In his statement. "Mr. Martin is, I understand," said Mr. Jones, "attempting to show up my record In Congress. He Is trying to show that mine Is as bad as his. 1 am not 'a candidate for the Senate. You have nothing to do with my record: it has nothing to do with the case. 1 dis? dain to discuss It because it's not a pertinent question. 1 understand that Senator Martin Is in Richmond, at the same hotel with me. and that he Is al? most dying to meet me In debate, if ho will ir.imo the time and place. 1 will meet hiin to discuss this ques? tion. A CONSISTENT RECORD. "He may think my record as had as his. but it Is a (?.d'.?i.-iaiK ,mo.?; ha.o always voted on every question, arid have never dodged, and while he has taken both sides of the financial ques? tion by voting once for sliver at 1C to 1 and then for the single gold standard, 1 have been consistent and have al? ways voted with the majority .if the Democrats of the United Stated. "It may be ancient history to Koine of you, but I'll tell it. In 1S9C the groat, question was that of fin nice. The people v.. re divided into two great surging nampg, but no one can loll from Ills record where Senator Martin stands. So far as 1 am informed that question went before the Senate twice. Once he voted for the It! to l measure and then he voted for gold. Some people call themselves blmo tallirfts, and perhaps that may have been the way he understood i:. The Bryan platform is different. (Cheers). "I believe in Hie Chicago platform, and believe that the only thing to re? turn prosperity Is the remonetlsatlon of silver. I cay lhai when the people o,* Virginia, send a man to the Senate and he undergoes an honest change ami votes one way and then another, he should get up in the Senate and give the reason for the change. I say with? out a fear of contradiction, that Vir? ginia never had a Senator who stoat; both wa.vw who did not explain to his people the reasons that actuated him in the change. Senator Martin owes it to Virginia lo say why he changed. "Hut thc?e were not his only incon? sistent votes. Senator Morrlll Intro? duced a resolution providing for the coinage of silver at its commercial val? ue-. Martin voted for it; Daniel voted against it. Mr. Jones then discussed the resolu? tions recently fldoptcd by the Central Labor and Trades Union, of Richmond, In which Senator Martin was thanked for hi.s efforts In having a measure pass through Congress, providing for extra pay for extra work at the navy yards. He said Mr. Martin had nothing to do with the passage of that measurei that Congressman Rlxey, of the Eighth district, offered the resolution and got ?It through the House, and that Senator Burrows, a Republican, piloted It through the Senate. He said the res? olutions passed by the Labor Union were written by some one and sent to them for action. UNION PACIFIC SUBSIDIES. ?= lie also said. In referring to Senator Martin as a railroad attorney, that when'a resolution was Introduced .In the Senate to require the Union Pacific' railroad to render an account to the government, showing what had become of the subsidies. Senator Martin was not present, and, in consequence; d'id not vote on tin; matter. "Mr. Martin voted on the resolution making it Illegal for any other than a railroad company to sell railroad tickets," said Mr. Jones. "There was one thing that Mr. Mar? tin did, and that was to introduce MuJ. N. V. Randolph to Senator Allison, a Republican, in reference to raising the tariff cm boxes. Senator Daniel knew It was not Democratic and would take no tutetest in it. "Senator Martin's claims about ap? propriations ere not true. CdnjgrcsS man Lamb, who Is one of the hardest workers for his people I ever saw. succeeded in getting an appropriation of (160.000 for James river Improve? ment. When ii got to ihe Senate the amount was cut down to $100,000. Sen? ator Martin did no; open his mouth In favor of the appropriation, but Con? gressman Lamb and myself went to the committee .nnd by argument anil begging got them to put back i*hc S.">'V 000. That's the way Martin locks ar? ter appropriations. "t have '."resented Senator Martin's record hs he uresented it himself. If he had done anything for Virginia dur? ing his live y.?nrs in the Senate, lie would hnve embed led it in this pamph? let He claims thai lie got a little ap? propriation for Elizabeth river, but what he boa done for the State is not as much as that done by any one Con? gressman in the State. GOVERNOR TYLER LAUDED; '.'Governor Tyler, In my pinion, is a pure man, an honorable and bob k*od ;nan- Two years ago in- was the cholc; of the people fur the highest gift within .nc Stute. He entered lliu army as a stripling of seventeen ami carried his I musket until the surrender at Appo inattcx. and bus always been true to the people of Virginia, in whatever position they have placed him. 1 beg that you will see that your legislators are men who favor the popular elci tlon of Senators, and do nil you can to se? cure for yourselves and your children the privileges that should be yours. 1 believe that the great principle for which we are lighting will prevail, and that the 'Legislature that assembles next winter will give you a primary plan by which you can express your choice for United Slates Senators. "I,trust wo may not witness the spec? tacle that we Witnessed at the last ses? sion when men aids.- and said the con? stitution was a sacred thing and should not be touched. There is a sentiment being aroused in" the Stute in favor of a choice of the United States Senator by the people and i believe that Provi? de!. Is on our side and we arc bound to win."

THE MONTGOMERY WHITE. 1 A ZEST GIVEN TO OUT-DOOR SPORTS. (Special to Vlrglnian-Pllot.) Montgomery, Springs, Va., Sept. 2.? ! Quite a zest has been given to o?t I door sports by the cool, bright days. j Parties -at all hours are to be seen with rifles, kodaks, on horse-back, In bug? gies, or in picturesque garb intent on a j mountain climb. The lawn is frequent? ly dotted with groups indulging In a watermelon frolic, after a ganfe^of ten? pins. Among the fine shots are Miss Francis Mitchell, of Richmond; Miss Gordon, of Richmond; Mrs. Hull, ol Augusta and Mrs. Wilson, of Norfolk. Mr. Rogers, of Roanoke; Miss Celeste Harrison, of Mason. Miss.; Mr. South all, of Norfolk: Miss Martin, of Nor? folk, and Mr. Woodson, of Norfolk, arc among the finest howlers On the 6 rounds. . It is conceded that Messrs. Hull, or Georgia; Freeman, of Norfolk, and Richardson, of Portsmouth, take the finest pictures. They are us generous as they are skilled, and many of us will have excellent mementos of our sum? mer outing. Miss Klttridge, Col. Parrott, Miss Parrott, -Miss Gordon and Miss Mitch? ell are often to be seen indulging' i? equestrian exercise. Often parties in vehicles, accompanied by others on horse-hack, ro over to neighboring re- , sorts for dinner or supper, but -always j return with the cry that there's no | place like dear old Montgomery White. Last week a large party, including Mr. and Mrs. Pierson, Norfolk; Mrs. lv.'s, Portsmouth; Mr;. .Godwin, Ports? mouth: Mr. Williams. Portsmouth: .Mrs. Peed, Portsmouth; Mr. Sanderson, Nor? folk; Mrs. Richardson, Portsmouth, drove over to Mountain Lake, remain? ing there over night, seeing till that was to be seen of its beauties, and re? turning the next night, a somewhat tired but strongly plcasad crowd. The Rev. Mr.. Woodson and family, j of Norfolk, are here, and twice we have been fortunate In having him conduct! divine servlcc?. Last Sunday an offer-| atory, "Calvary." was sung by Mrs. Freeman, of Norfolk, accompanied by j Miss Margaret Bragg, of RbanOkcj and it goes without saying It added much j to the beauty of the service. Tuesday night a shadow play called | the "Raving Crusty Quill" was success? fully given to the gratification of the | performer? as well aa to the andienet Mrs. Russell,-of Montgomery, Ala., had | thU little surprise In store for the sb journers here, and her ingenuity and| capability undoubtedly occasioned the! greater part .>f the success. The eve ing's entertainment consisted of piano solo by Mrs. McCown, of New Or-| leans. To state that that tlnlshcd mu? sician played Chopin's "Impromptu." and that while doing so one could have! heard a pin fall. Is tribute enough to) her skill and power. A recitation by Miss Wheeler, of Mo? bile, called "llartsense." was followed! by a song from Mrs. Freeman, who, In her usual manner, rendered that ever pleasing "Marguerite." Miss Rebecca Gordon accompanied her. As an en? core she sang "Dreaming as ? She| Sleeps," and later on. after the per? formance was over, she recited by re? quest a touching incident of the Cuban war, which proved her not possessed of only a single talent. Tiff!?IRTtors lit the "Raving Crazy | Quilt," who by their ridiculous cos? tume-.-: and absurd poGVtires made the | hit of the evening- were, Misses Par? rott. Klttridge, R. Gordon, N. Gordon, Harrison, Mitchell, White; Messrs. Martin, Pierson, Freeman, Mitchell | and MoKinnon. Mr. Hull, as Master of Ceremonies, announced the members of the even? ing's entertainment in his usual happy style. VIRGINIA BEACH. SOCIETY NO'. ; .'. PROM* OUR. REQ V LAU CO RR KS PONDENT.

The recent storm brought ashore n great quantity of wreckage which these energetic fei- | lows saved, sawed and sold to the cot-1 lagers, all of whom are greatly Inter? ested in their success.

I became so dis? heartened that 1 finally told my employer I must give up my position, but lie laughed, and said lie wanted roe to stay, and then suggested that I try /us remedy for such troubles. He gave me half a doxea Kipans Tabides and told me to take one after dinner and another hei'ore going to bed. I did so, and rested belter that very night Now, whenever I feel nervous. I take just one Tabule before retiring and 1 sleep right through till morning, and get up thoroughly rested anil ready for business. For a sleep-producer and a quieter of the nerves, these Tabules are simply wonderful." X3XI. MOTE'S ?
