Former Democrats are just now in the

members the people of
have pleasant recollection,
a practice march
ot about ten days, to include a halt of
about three days at the Berryville horse
Show, where a series ®f exhibition drills
may be given.
Won’t our county and town authorities
do a little decorating—the former of the
court-house and jail, and the latter of the
outside of Washington Hall—for the 4th
of July. The Red Men will bring an
immense number of visitors to our town
and county, and this will be but a reason
able encouragement ot their efforts and
an exhibition of a live, up-to-date spirit.
Our former townsman Mr.S.M.Prince,
we are pleased to note by the Morgan
town Post, has, as southern agent for the
Canton Bridge Company, secured the
contract for erecting a $22,000 bridge
across the Cheat river at Fairfax ferry in
Preston county. The structure is tobe(
620 feet in length, four spans of 155 feet
each, roadway 16 feet, and bridge to sup
port one xoo.ooo pound car.
State Superintendent Thos. C. Miller
has our thanks for a copy of the West
Virginia Insitute Annual, containing the
institute program and a great deal of in
teresting valuable information concern
ing the schools of our State and educa
tional matters in general. The book has
in it a picture and plan ot the public
school building at Uvilla, this county—
a model country school-house.
Our much esteemed friend Rev. James
Battle Ayirett, of Buena Vista, Va., has
favored us with a life-like picture of him
self as Chaplain of the 7th Va. Regiment,
Ashby Cavalry, (the oldest Confederate.
Chaplain.) with John (Black Hawk) cook
of the old mess, standing beside his chair
and looking as faithful as ever. We ap
preciate the picture very much, and shall
preserve it among our valued collections.
Hon. Benj. R. Tilman, ot South Car
lina, has a formidable rival forhisseatin
the United States Senate in the persun
ofCol.W.W.Lumpkin. If Col.Lumpkin
is the father ot the charming young lady
who so captivated the old Confederates
by her burning eloquence at the Louis
ville reunion, (and Ave think he is.) he
would with her assistance have a power
ful lever in his behalf, and Senator Ti 1
man.s pitchfork, we opine, would prove
a little avail.
The question of bridging the Shenan
doah river, which the Spirit of Jeffer
son originated and has repeatedly advo
cated, is now about to be given a more
practical turn by the circulation of peti
tions in its favor. These we hope to see
generally sigued and endorsed by the
right-thinking and publ ic-spirited people
of all sections ot the county. Clarke
county, our next door neighbor, has re
cently erected two bridges over this his
toric stream, and surely Jefferson, the
richest of the two counties, can erect one
if not two.
A twenty-six-line patch of paper tacked
on the east door of the Heidwohl house
at Holl’s pump informs the taxpayers of
Charles Town District, in bulk or nearly
so, without details, of the expenditure of
$10,000 or more of tiie people’s money,
l'hvs is another lovely outcome of the
memorable special session of 1904.—
Prior to that time the law required Boards
of Education, where the expenditures for
all school purposes in any one school
year in said district exceeded three
thousand dollars, to publish a financial
statement in some newspaper of general
circulation, which didn't cost the tax
payers two mills on a dollar of their taxts.
Col. John T, McGraw has written a
letter to the Democrats of Webster coun
ty that will apply to WestVirginia Demo
crats generally and which is full of good
sense. The Col. requests that no con
vention instruct nominees for the State
Legislature to vote for him for United
States Senator, and mferentially for
any one. The Col. says that question
should not be mentioned, but all energy
and tact should be brought into action
to get control of theLegislature without re
gard as to who will lie voted for for Sena
tor. There are other questions of more
importance to the people. The chief
thing is to get at the iniquitous tax laws
that tax every cent’s worth of the
farmers’ property, things that were never
taxed before and that never should be
taxed. The question of railroad legisla
tion is another more important matter
with the people than the individual who
may be elected United States Senator.
These questions come right home with
telling force to the people in general and j
the farmers in particular, and if the'
Democrats capture the Legislature the '
matter of selecting a Senator will be
promptly and properly attended to. I

Several Virgiuia fields have been
anxious to secure Rev. James Long as
pastor. We are not surprised, because
we know him to be a faithful, laborious,
capable pastor, and a preacher of real
force. He has decided, however, to ac
cept the call to Charles Town, and will
enter upon his duties there July 8. He
will have one of the most united, pro
gressive. and aggressive little churches
in the General Association of Virginia,
and we feel sure it will be for him and
for the church a happy and progressive
pastorate—Religious Herald. Rich
mond, Va.
Attorney Geueral May has just handed
down an opinion to the effect that the
sheriffs of the respective counties in this
State are entitled to the full five per cent,
commission on all tax collections before
the first day of February. Under the
old law it was provided that the discount
of two and one-half per cent allowed to
all persons paying their taxes in full by
the last day of November should be de
ducted from the sheriff’s commission, so
that the commission on all such collec
tions amounted to only two and one-half
per cent. The present law, however,
which was enacted in 1904. is not specific
on this point aud Attorney General May
is of the opinion that the discount should
be deducted from the amount remaining
after the sheriff has received his full five
percent.commission. TheBoardsof Edu
cation of Jeffersou county will act in ac
cordance with the above ruling.
Rev. Isaac Ofbsoa.
Rev. Isaac Gibson, rector emeritus of
St. John’s P.E.Church, Norristown, Pa.,
who was minfsterin the Methodist Church
in CharlesTown just previous to the War
between the States, and assistant rector
in Zion Church here for a year or more
after the war, died in Norristown June
12. Of this cultured gentleman, who
was a near relative of Mr. James G. Ald
ridge and sisters, and who always held a
warm place in the hearts of the people of
Charles Town, the Norristown Daily
Herald says:
Rev. Isaac Gibson was the fourth child
and the eldest son of Minor Gibson,Esq.,
and Elizabeth Pendleton Shackelford, of
Virginia, and was born in Rappahannock
county, Va , January 30, 1828. On his
father’s side lie was of that sturdy Scotch
Irish stock which has been so productive
of noble men and women in all quarters,
and on his mother’s was of the Pendle
ton’s. an English family, whose roots run
to the time of the Norman Conquest,
and which came to Virginia very shortly
after the settlement ot Jamestown, and
which furnished so many distinguished
men to the service of the State and nation.
His youth was not passed when he felt
that his vocation was to preach the Gos
pel, and to that glorious work he devoted
nearly sixty years. He served at the
Church’s altar in Virginia, West Vir
ginia, Kentucky and Pennsylvania, in
the last having been rector of St. John’s,
Norristown,from November. 1872,to 1898.
and its rector emeritus since 1898 to June,
1906. He was a man of many gifts of
mind and heart, and “a workman who
needed not to be ashamed,” as with
eloquent lips and pen he sought to ad
vance the cause of divine truth among
men. Both as a churchman and a citizen
this community has had the benfit of his
wise counsel and faithful service for a
full generation and will long feel the in
fluence of his zeal for honor, truth and
righteousness. He leaves four children,
a fifth having died in infancy, and seven
grandchildren. His children are: Rev.
Jno. S. Gibson, rector of'irinity Church,
Huntington. W. Va.; Miss Ethel Gibson,
Norristown; M. H. Gibson, Esq., of the
Norristown Bar, and Miss Delia P. Gib
son, ot Norristown.
