Tinkeriug the Bill.
To the Editor Of the Dispatch

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
Many thousands of people in Viz
ginia who cast ballots are closely and
anxiously watching the course Of the
General Assembly on local option. 1t
is needless to repeat what everybody
knows. e., that the platforms Of the
two political parties led the people to
believe that whichever party gained
power and place in the late State cleo
ton would give fair and general local
option law. To disappoint this ex-
pectation created by their own action
openly and squarely is rather more
than our legislators are prepared to do,
but to tinker away at the bill and at
last to give one that shall seem to do
what the people demand, and yet in
the enc not do it, appears to be the d.
rection in which they are now moving.
To any one who has watched the course
Of these Lawmakers it must be clear
that in their circumlocution Office "
they are trying how "Rot to do it.
Look at the amendments offered in the
Senate last Friday. They are based
upon the assumption that those who
offered them and those who voted for
them looked upon local option as so
grand a question as to demand for its
success a majority Of all the registered
votes, or at least as big vote as was
cast in the last general election. But
why apply a test here never applied in
any other election? Would the gentle
men who proposed and those who voted
for the amendment be willing in their
own cases to take their own physic
No, they would claim election to their
seats by majority of the votes cast for
them at the time, no matter what may
have been the number cast in the pre-
ceding general election. Now, good
gentlemen, deal with the local-option
matter as you would with your own
election.
Remember, the people demand and
they will be satisfied with nothing less
than a fair general local-option law.
Let the tinkeriDg cease, stand up 20
your pledge, and give US such bill as
We have right to expect. 1t will be
well to remember that the people are
in dead earnest in this matter of local
option, and those who fail in duty will
be held to strict account of their
stewardship.

The Lee1slature-Local Option.


The Religious Herald of this week
has a long editorial telling Its readers
what manner Of men constitute the
present General Assembly, and how
this body has performed its duties. 1t
pronounces this a better Legislature
than the last. We consider il one Of
the best that ever assembled. We trust
that it will not be afraid to provide for
an extra session if one should be me-
cessary, nor for a dozen if a dozen
should be necessary. The debt and
other questions mentioned by the Herald
must not be left unsettled, We quote
the Herald on one subject
"Both parties went to the Legislature
s0lemnly pledged by their platforms TO give
the right OF local option 10 the people OF
Virginia. There Was therefore. but one
plain duty before them, and that was TO
pass promptly an honest, effective law. In
stead OF meeting at once this manifest OBJ.
legation, they have discussed. and DELAYED,
and amended. and considered, aud re-
considered, until this hour which Is within
few days OF the end Of the session, finds
them scarcely nearer an enactment than
they were when the bin was first reported.
We hope our lawmakers will yet put them
selves right with the people as To this mat

We fully agree with the State and
the Wing that the Legislature should
make . more adequate and becoming al
lowancc to the Adjutant-G General for his
services. The Office Is one Of rank and
responsibility, and its incumbent is re-
quired to be constantly on duty. Under
such circumstances it seems Q travesty

In the city Of Portsmouth recently
have been held meetings that are typi-
cal. Crowds, even in the midst ofvery
threatening weather, have packed the
churches in which these meetings were
held to listen to the unvarnished dis
cussion of prohibitory laws. Such
gatherings mean something. The think
ing and patriotic citizens are in earnest.
They look to the legislative wisdom OF
those for whom they have cast their
votes to give them the plain, common
sense, and eminently-fair privilege OF
casting ballot pro or con as to the
traffic inintoxicants.
Where is the fanaticism in such re-
quest? II liquor-dealers can show that
