Marttnsvllle, Va., August 30.?Con?
gressman Carter Glass spoke here this
afternoon to about 200 people, rep
resenting all shades of political belief
The weather was showery throughout
the day, and 'yr about two hours be?
fore the speaking began there wa* a
steady downpour.
Mr. Glass was introduced by Profes?
sor Qua I>ycr, formerly of Henry, now
of Vanderblll University, and held the
close attention of the greater portion,
of his audience for two hours. The:
speaker was evidently laboring under
considerable physical disability at tho 1
start, but warmed to his subject us!
his speech progrcsed, and grew elo- (
fluent towards its close.
Mr. Glass followed practically the!
same lines pursued throughout his {
campaign, with some additions. He an?
swered Mr. Swanson's charge that lie]
bad voted in the state Senate against
an employers' liability bill by saying
that the bill Which he oppose,) was
worthless. Mr. Glass was caustic In
Iiis remarks along this lute, declaring j
that Swanson's criticism of him In!
this matter was lainted with deliberate
mendacity, and he quoted from Eugene
Withers. Joseph Button and a promi?
nent locomotive engineer to show how
l he stood on that question, Ho also
stated that his competitor knew that
he was on a sick bed when the vote
on this clause in tin- new Constitution
was taken.
Mr Class was severe in bis criticism
of the manner in which Mr, Swanson
SOUghl bis scat, even boforA Senator
Daniel WOS taken III, and ridiculed the
j Idea that he had given Virginia a busi?

The speaker was accorded a respect

remedy should be local.

tho Intricacies of various branches of
law and legal procedure wore presented
last night before the thirty-fourth an?
nual session of tho American Bar As?
