He gnard-ly refrained from any mention of his "approval" of the primary, for what reason, he, himself, only knows. Now the primary question is an important one in the issue for many reasons, and if Mn Martin favors it, as he has asserted elsewhere that he does, we would like to hear from his own lips what he has done for it, and how many ol his friends supported, it in the State legislature.

There is a great deal of opposition pn the part of the suburban fresi dents, which seems -to us both un accountable and unreasonable. In our judgment, thecitizen eru- braced in the city limits will be far 5 more benefited than will those in the city proper. Let us consider first, the advan-' tage's to be derived by the residents of the annexed territory; take for instance, the school benefits. At present outsiders who send their children to the city schools are re-guired to pay J2.00 per month a -jpnpil, which is $18 per session, while if the father be a resident of Mhe city he receives school advantages for his children free. There-JTorc it is self-evident that every sub-tnrbanite who has children should javor annexation for this reason, if for no other.

Then consider the question of frater the outsider who uses city trater now pays double the charge as the resident in the city. Then 1 there is fire protection, police pro- WESTON'S CAFE. Regular Meals25c. All White. Help.

Having it' desire to represent Staunton and Aagusta county in the house of delegates of Virginia, and having met with great encouragement from many of the most representative men in thlscommunity, I respectfully announce myself a candidate for the position, subject to the Democratic primary, and sincerely ask the support of the Democratic If nominated and elected, my first and chief aim snail be to acquit myselt with credit to myself and with honor and fairness to my constituency. I believe that our roads asd schools should be improved, and in general advancement, bat at the same time, I also believe that the people should not be burdened with taxation. I believe that our aws should be pla and simple so that the masses can easily understand them.

Respectfully, May 11-tf. CRAIG. NOTICE. TO TBPE VOTERS OF THE COUNTIEi OF AUGUSTA AND HIGHLAND, AND OF THE CITY OF STAUNTON. Having beet requested by many of my friends 11 I space several times, asserted and re-asserted his devotion to the cause of the people against the corpora tions, and dealt a great deal platitudes and campaign sarcasm, but the people are not convinced.

In the absence of war news, the fake writers have gotten busy. The lower Valley has contributed its annual quota of spring snake stones, Comorn has come to the front with a remarkable tale about a flying snake, and now comes a report from Colorado that a Denver printer is growing a new leg after having had the old one amputated. Nan Patterson has stepped down and out, followed by a good deal of mawkish sympathy. If she deserves the least iota of the sym pathy which a foolish public has bestowed upon her, she will remain with the fragment of modesty which may be left to discreetly in the background, for some time to come. tjenator Martin missed his calling.

The pleading tones of his voice better fit him for a camp meeting exhorter than a campaign orator. I LEADERETTES. 3 BY VANCE. Oh woman, noble woman, natures Masterpiece of grace Why will she imitate the wasp In the moulding of her waist? If the sun fails to give you that burnt leather complexion, try cigarettes. The public seems' to be paying the debt pf gratitude they owe John Paul Jones, in newspaper notices.

Staunton may never multiply, but from the evidence in the extension case she is long on additions. If some men would expend as much energy in the pursuit of wealth, as they do in trying to run a community, they would be able to own an auto and keep up the repairs It seems to be' generally under stood that the new trolley will be no 2 for 5 affair'.

Montague for the Democratic nomination fbr United States Senator.

Nearly pne hundred and fifty names have been secured, with little effort, and those behind the movement expect to double that number in short order. A more representative list ol names than the one referred to could not well be obtained in this community. The club expects to meet shortlv arid perfect its organization. Makes hard roads easy Willson Bros' Sure Cure Corn Killer, revenue derived from taxation in the annexed territory is under the statute to be applied to public improvements therein. This is a con-" dition precedent to annexation, and in the discretion of the court other conditions beneficial to the suburbanites may be imposed upon the city.

While we advocate the annexa-Potion of the suburbs that are built up and which are for all purposes, cave enumeration and taxation, a part and parcel of the city, we do think the agricultural- lands -should be included. To subject Jands or Jots which are simply used for farming or grazing purposes to ity taxation, would become in the end, confiscation. However, both ides should be willing to let the conditions be determined by a disinterested court land should make up their minds to acquiesce in its decision. This is assuredly certain the sub-. urbs exist because of their proximity the city, and if there were no city there would be no suburbs The suburbanite made his home where he could be near his business the city out of which he makes his living and should be willing to bear the prorata share of taxation while reaping the benefits, derived from his location.
