TO reason that those persons who would
have 20 submit their chances 10 popular

of the Gas and Nater-Works and OF the

ABOUT MILITARY AFFAIRS.
Another question which undoubtedly
VIII stir n.y. tle two branches OF the
legislature considerably IS the one le-
ntag 10 the military. At present the
appropriation made by the state FOR the
d,fraylug Of the entire expenses or the
virginia volunteers IS only $1,000 n year.
The several instances in which the GOV
crnor was compelled within the last year
or so 10 cal 0Gl the military nave not
only exhausted that appropriation, but
r became necessary 10 leiay the al
oltional expenses from the general funl.
While the enemies OF the Democratic
marty may criticise tie Governor Tor his
action taken In the PocahOEtas affair,
Net all fair-mindel men viii have 10
admit the justification Of military inter-
vent.on. In this connection an editorial
expression published at the time IN
daily PAPER OF Rlueheld vs.. Va. right on
the very spot where the disorder occur
rcd. seems to be rather significant In
, he article referred 10 il was stated that
while the action o. Governor O'FerraI
had cost the State Of Virginia S25,ov, yet
the action Of Governor McCorklc mad
cost the State of West Virginia SSg.U).
During the last session or the Lcsisia-
ture quite number Of bills relating 10
military affairs were introduced, and 4
good many OF them were fathered b.
Col. j. Catlett Gibson, OF Culpeper, VINO,
however. admitted that he merely intro
Guced them by request of some hidden
power. Some of these bills were remark
able products of ingenuity, apparently
intended 10 revolutlonize the military.
For quite q while the bills slumoered
peacefully in the House Committee on
Militia and Police. but finally a hearing
war arranged for all military bills By
