The oyster commission appointed
at the recent session of the Legisla-
lature to examine into and report as
to the adYisability of breaking the
Baylor survey, according to informa
tion received from them during their
cruise in Virginia waters, "does not
favor the leasing of natural beds, if
they are really productive, but if
they have become depleted and pro
duce but little, they will urge that
they be rented"
This decision seems fair, if the data
can be obtained by them which will
enable them to act intelligently in
the matter. That they cannot, no
other proof need be submitted than
the mistakes made by Mr.. Baylor,
and without information satisfactory
to them, it is fair to presume, that
they will hold on to their present
convictions, and report in favor of
leasing so much of the oyster beds,
that they might as well report in
favor of breaking the Baylor survey.

SATURDAY, JUNE q, 1908.
Entered at tie Postofice at Accomac Z. H.
Va, as second-class matter.

The Republican State Executive
Committee, in session in the city OF
Richmond on Wednesday, adopted
resolutions in favor of the nomina-
ton of Republican candidates for
every office to be filled by election
next November. The resolutions
urge all Republicans ito bury and
forget all past differences and fac
tional strifes" and cordially invite
the cooperation of all good citizens
who disspprove OF the acts and poll
cies of the Democratic party to join
them in their efforts to put the State
in the Republican ranks
They could not win before theil
large colored contingent was retired
when the new Constitution went in
to effect, and of course do not expect
to do so now, but another resolution
adopted, perhaps, gives the clue tC
their enthusiasm for the success o.
the G o. p this fall. Their ENDORSE
ment of Roosevelt for reelection, mo-
only in 1904 but also in 1908 indicates
that though they know they cannot
win in the fall elections in the State
that they believe all will not be los
to them, if Ted dy continues in powe
and can be impressed by their inter
est in his success to give them
chance for a bigger slice at the Re
publican pie counter. With the abso
lutte certainty of defeat which con
fronts them no other reason can b,
assigned for the zeal and jnteres
manifested by the Republican lead
ers in the fall election. Their earn
estness though in the matter, whethe
real or assumed, will cause ever.
good Democrat to take warning AM
convince him that it is his duty TO b
in line, prepared to cast his vot
with his party when the polls ar
opened in November.

The big strike, which commenced
in the city of Richmond several days
ago, continues with undated yigol
and the end if yet in sight is not in
dicated by the latest news received
from that city. The summary of the
days doing up to midnight on Wed
nesday, which stated that six citizens
had been shot, three Staunton sol
diers had been accidentally hurt by
the discharge of gun, that strikers
had torpedoed the street car tracks
and committed many other act Of
violence, together with the still later
advices that martial law had beer
virtually proclaimed, leave no doubt
as to the serious condition of affairs
which exist in Richmond.
Thus far about two thirds of the
military force of the State has beer
called into service, and it is feared
that an order may at any time now
be given them Ito IRE aud hre TO hi
rather than suffer men to be injured
or driven from their posts or permit
injury to life or limb of employees o.
the railroad company or unchecked
destruction Of its property"
1t is to be hoped that the order will
not have to be given and that thu
strikers will desist before it is too late
While they have wrongs doubtless
which ought to be righted, they
ought to be able to see that they can
not expect to win by the violent
methods which they have taken
They must know that "the power Of
the State to maintain order must be
enforced at all hazards"
