our COURAGEOUS ELECTORAL
l,O4IkD.

In commenting on a report sent out from
Richmond some time ago. that the Elec-
toraI Board of this city would Try TO
get business men and not professional
politicians to serve as judges Of elections
and registrars. the Brun3wie8 Gazette
says
This is the most hopeful sign SIC nave
seen in many day. IL the Ele5.Oral
Beard Of the city OF Richmond Will carry
their purpose. as indicated in the fore
going paragraph. into execution. and viii
select good business mcn-such as have

munity, TO IN the positions of judges and
registrars. they VIII set an example that
Will entltle them TO the grateful thanks
Of the honest masses throughout the
Siate-one that should De speedily followed
by the Electoral Boards everywhere. in
this way, 10y this simple means the politi-
cal atmosphere in Virginia would be more
enectually cleared than by any and every
other agency That could be brought TO
bear.
We are pleased to inform our respected
contemporary that the Electoral Board OF
Richmond has fulfilled that promise. and
that while those who deal in politics"
have protested, the public are delighted
and the board has been congratulated
by the community for discharging its
duty faithfully and courageously.
Like the Gazette. we take this as one
Of the most hopeful signs Of the times
for honest elections and clean politics.
1t shows that the brain has been working:
that public sentiment has been crystaliz-
ing and that those who have labored
TO this end have not labored in vain.
Inc people Of Virginia are honest. and
'hey love honest elections. They have
simply been deceived in the past by the
false cry that crookedness was necessary

so conciscly and accurately epitomizes
the creed Of Tho Times as this quo'a-
ton from Mr.. jefferson.
Let US protect all in life, liberty anu
property and then say TO every American
citizen with the gifts that God has given
YOU. your brain. your Drawn and energy
work out your own fortunes under just
government and an equal Jurisprudence
That's the doctrine. That's Democracy
That's American liberty. II says TO the
eovernment-hands Off. Give every man
equal chances with every other man TO
earn q living. No class laws. No re-
straint Of enterprise. No government IA
vor,tism. NO government partner
sbips" Let American manhood alone
and let every man work out his own Tor
tunes without aid or hindcrance from the
government.
II The Times has not taught that doc
trine. It has taught nothing. 1t has ap-
proved a protective tariff and suD-treas-
ures and all sorts Of class legislation ana
II has approved socialism and govern
ment paternalism, every loIi" VI eV'
eminent partnerships, and every un-
Democratic interference on the part OF
the government with the business anairs
Of life.
The. Times has been accused OF ia
vorinr laws that foster trusts" 1t has
not done so. 1t has approved win us
right al laws whose purpose is to ios-
ter" anybody's business at the expense
Of other people. But it has also opposed
laws designed to throttle the business OF
those who by skill and industry have
built up enterprises OF their own.
The Times stands on Jeffersons plat
form. No fayoritismi no interference:
no gag law.
