Travelling Libraries.

AS the Legislature has made no APP
preparation for free travelling hDra-
ries. the State Library has had to de-
mend upon gifts from private parties
TO supply the books for these libra
ries. and through this method has been
able to put in the field between fifteen
and twenty collections since Septem-
Der, 1904.
Each travelling library consists OF
fifty books, handsome bookcase, a
charging outfit and number OF small
printed catalogues.
The collection is allowed to stay Ill
one place until read, usually from
three to six months, when it is moved
on and another takes its place When
If reaches a station it is managed as
far as possible like a small publlc
library. ~.
1t is sent to a community upon the
annlication of ten of its taxpayers,
who constitute the library board and
appoint a librarian from their num-
Der.
To secure the preservation and safe
return of the books, a paper hxlng
the liability at not more than one
hundred dollars is required TO De
signed by one or more property own
ers in the State. But further IMAM
this, there is no expense or liability
attached to the loan.
The bookcases are furnished by the
State Library, and the different rail-
roads, with the most commendabdle
broad mindedness, carry the ontht
free of charge.
The scheme affords an incompara-
BILE opportunity for the philanthro-
pist; for by the gift of one library ne
offers the blessings of education and
the Joys of delightful recreation, not
to a community, but to every com
munity which has a station, Every
collection of books given establishes;
a new station, and this station Will
receive, in time, each and every
travelling library in the system.
In order that each reader may kno"
who is interested in his or her educa'
ton and pleasure, the name OF the Inc
donor is stamped in the back OF eacf
book.

Governor Montague has issued
proclamation designating Saturday,
the 25th of this month, as arbOr day.
This is in accordance with an act Of
the General Assembly prescribing
that the executive shall annually in
the Spring name day to be observed
throughout Virginia by planting
trees, shrubs and vines about the
houses and along the highways and
about the public grounds in this State,
thus contributing to the wealth, COM
fort and attractions of the State"
The day should be observed and
everybody is interested in it, not only
with the view of thereby contributing
to the beauty of their homes but from
a financial standpoint as well. No
one, who has noted the rapid rate at
which our forest lands for several
years past have been denuded of tim
Der, will question the wisdom OF
movement looking to the growing OF
more trees in the place of those which
have been destroyed.

Judge Mann's Announcement.

Judge VIM. II. Mann is out IN
of his position on the varl-
Gus issues outlined by him III his an
nouncement some time ago OF his can
didacy for the nomination .ot COVER
or. Answering a charge -that mas
been made he said: 49,
"Now, as to the statement that my
nomination would cause large num-
her of Democrats to bolt and to vote
for the Republican candidate, l must
confess that cannot understand such
an argument. My friends propose to
abide the result of the primary in
Uood faith and to vote for the noml-
nee. and | am unwilling to believe
that any considerable number OF
Democrats will either keep out OF the
primary or vote against me II l am
nominated.
~ cannot believe that the Demo
cratic party is ready to take the posi-,
tion that no man can be nominated
for governor of Virginia because he
entertains the views which l hold on
the regulation of the liquor traffic.
Certainly, the good Democrats who
are willing to abide the result of the
party primary ought not to be con
trolled in their action or even IN
auenced in the smallest degree by the
clamor of those calling themselves
Democrats who are willing to take
the chance of nominating the man OF
their choice, but who, if disappointed
will bolt.
"My name will be presented to the
primary, and if the advlces whlcI
come to me are correct l shall win
My campaign will be conducted upoI
platform with education, good roaas
business methods and reasonable
regulation of the liquor traffic as the
leading planks, and | submit the quesS
ton to the people of Virginia stand
ling upon my record and expressed
conviction"

Governor Montague has sent out
letters to a number of persons IN the
State calling attention to the 1act'
that they will soon for the tirst-time
have the opportunity to vote direco
bv secret ballot for a United states
Senator. In these letters, he states
that he is a candidate for the nominal
ton to that office and no one, at all
conversant with the record he has
made for himself as Attorney-General
and Governor of Virginia, will ques-
ton his right to be an aspirant for
that honor and the majority of the
voters of the State, we believe, will
conclude when they cast their ballots
at the primary this Fall, that one who
has served them with such distin-
guished ability in the past and always
with a sacred regard for the best In
terests of the State, as he has done
deserves the promotion which he seeks
at their hands. He can justly appea
to the people for their support, as he
has always been willing to trust them
and has ever been their champion fol
a voice in controlling the affairs OF
the State. His letter shows that ne
has always recognized the right OF
the people to rule, and that in solicit
ing their support in his candidacy fol
the Senatorship he is willing to abide
by their decision in the matter. Or
this point he says;
"This is a distinct reform to whlcf
have devoted my conviction and my
thought for some years. The election
of Senators by the people at once
gives every voter the power equal L
that of any other voter and removes
the evil incident to mass-meetings o.
legislative caucuses, wherein the
energy of the politicians is of far more
weight than the patriotism and IN
telligence of the citizen"
In conclusion the Governor say
that in the event of his election HI
will neglect no private interest, We
will cooperate with my colleague
in renewing the vigor of my party mo
only in the defeat of harmful meas
ures, but by the enactment of affirma
tive and constructive legislation s.
essential to the rehabilitation of on
party"
