H i ID
Newport News is right up to business
and usually knows a good thing when
she sees it. She recognizes q good thing
IN Virginia launching day, which WI!
fan on April 5th, and Newport news
is after making the most 1T. 4
Yesterday {; committee of three, tick
eted by the Newport News Chamber OF
Commerce, reached the city. for business
before the Legislature. The committee
was composed OF Mayor A. a. Moss, At
torncv Allan Jones and Mr.. S: L. Slower.
These gentlemen came to work bill
through the Legislature appropriatins
5000. or so much thereof as may be
necessary, to pay the. expenses OF the
militia OF the State to Newport News
o., the 9Th of APRIL there to parade and
10 greet the Governor and possibly tho
President. when they see the battleshlp
Virginia launched,
Senator Holt offered the bill lin the
Senate soon after tho committee ar
rived and the Newport News gentlemen
had a brief, but not entirely satisfactory,
interview. with the Finance Committee
of that. branch Of the Legislature, TO
whom the bill was REFERRED 81.
Tho contention Of tho Newport News
hustlers is that as the State frequently
calls tho military boys out for rough SER
vice, such as protecting criminals etc,
1t ought to some times pay their ex-
penses on a trip like the one proposed.

The Senate Committee OH Finance yes
terday morning considered at length the
three companion bills, which havo 81 Q
ready passed the House, modifying tho
Mann liquor, law, and tho body decided to
report one OF them favornbly and the
other two adversely. The bill favorably
reported, Is that which provides for re-
batting license, where the barkccper be-
comes tho victim Of dry election.
The two bills which were adversely
reported provided respectively for striking
out the jail punishment feature from the
present :aw, and for allowing q dealer
whose place is closed as o. result Of an
adverse elcetion ninety days III which y Q
dispose Of his stock. tx
both the temperance people and thoso
favora BILE to the saloon were represented
before the committee and several speeches

appeared In favor Of the measures, and
stated the position Of the liquor people
at some length Tho fight over these blls
has been quito q long one, and at times
1t has grown somewhat spirited. E
WANT THE LAW ENFORCED.
It is claimed By hose who advocate
them, that their passage would lead 10 q
more stringent enforcement Of tho law
with reference to Sunday selling.
In bearing out4th contention, thoy a r
quo that tile status Of the law. on, ms
point a present IS very uncertain, itl3s-
much as in a number OF cases IN Rou--
noke and elsewhere, indictments Tor sun;
day selling, have fallen to the ground
because tho courts have held the sec
ton unconstitutional In as much US y
is contained In tho general revenue bill.
and its objects are not clearly set out
in the title. Another argument is, that ~
addition to obliterating the jail feature,
which 1t is contended is now OF no effect.
the proposed amendments hten up "

ton rf@lIcense provisions (now vague be-
cause Of constitutional doubt and dlscre-
tiona.ry with the COURT absolutely man

Captain w. ID. Cardwell, OF Hanover,
and others who advocated the dis II
the House, arc certain that their passage
would greatly facilitate the enforcement
Of the law. by making it mandatory upon
the court to revoke the license OF o. man
convicted Of Sunday selling, as we'll as 70
provide clearly for the imposition OF the
fines which the law now provides.
