NORFOLK'S TRADE WITH
THE NORTHERN NECK.
Norfolk Landmark.)

Our contemporary, the Virginian-
Pilot, is right when it says that the
merchants of Norfolk aud Ports
mouth cannot afford to give up their
only direct means of trade with the
rich country tributary to the Kappa
hammock river.
This district, known as the North
ern Neck of Virginia, is full of re-
sources, industry, and prosperity.
Logically, the ports of Tidewater
Virginia would be it's principal
markets, but the great bulk of Rap
pahannock trade goes to the more dis
tant Maryland port of Baltimore.
Baltimore has much better trans
portation service to the Rappahan-
mock than Norfolk aud Portsmouth,
but that advantage is due largely, if
not entirely, to the fact that Balti-
more merchants have shown more
interest in Northern Neck business.
While some of the merchants here
have done their best to develop the
possibilities of commerce with the
Rappahannock district, the majority
have shown a Disappointing indif-
ference.
The merchants of the Twin Cities
must now do something definite
about this matter, or they will lose
not only the prospect of augmenting
their Northern Neck trade, but even
the trade which they have already
established. While not what it ought
to be, by any means, this existing
trade is worth keeping. 1t would be
a reflection upon US to abandon it to
Baltimore without struggle.
The management of the Delaware,
Maryland and Virginia Railway Com
pany (Which has recently absorbed
the Weems Line of steamboats) in
forms the commercial bodies of the
city that the line will have to stop
running the boat between this port
and Rappehannock points, because
the traffic is not sufficient to pay the
expense of operating the schedule.
In proof of this statement the books
of the company have been submitted
to the inspection of Secretary Lums-
den Of the Chamber of Commerce
AS an evidence of goodwill, the Del.

NEW ERA REPUBLICANIsM
'taunton SPECTATOR

The following reference to the no.
table Republican convention of 1880
in Staunton will carry many Of our
older citizens in memory back to the
strange and turbulent scenes enacted
in the old skating rink here twenty
five years ago:
Editor Times Dispatch:
Sir-Referriug to- the "new era
that has dawned in Virginia" for
the Republican party, which has
been claimed by Judge Lewis and
other Republican orators, on which
the Times-Dispatch comments SO
caustically in its leader October 9th,
| am reminded that it is not the first
time the Republicans have reioiced
over new era for their party.
1t was only the other day that ]
was looking over a report in the
Stauntou Vindicator 25 years ago
by the late Henry @. Tinsley, of
the Republican convention held in
Staunton April 1928, 1880 Peter
Carter, the negro politician and Vir-
ginia legislator, had just been elected
by the "black tan" convention as
temporary chairman. He was escort
ed to the chair by Gen. Wicxham
and Judge l.. l.. Lewis and pre-
sented to the bowling audience, aud
when the tumult had subsidized Car
ter, referring to the new era for his
great party that had just dawned in
Virginia, said "he felt like Simeon
of old in repeating: Il have seen Thy
glory, now let Thy servant depart in
peace"
Democrats will remember the kind
of "glory" that followed, and during
the next few years there were not a
few Democrats who regretted that
the prophetic Peter had not then,
like Simeon. departed in peace.

it is the purpose of the Democratic

DAYS OF MY YOUTH.

Days of my youth, ye have glided away;
HAIRS of my youth, ye are frosted and
gray;
Eyes OF my youth, your keen sight Is no
more;
Cheeks of my youth, ye are furrowed all
o'er.
Strength of my youth, all the vigor is
gone;
Thoughts OF my youth. your gay visions
have flown;
Days of my youth, I wish not your re-
call;
Hairs OF my youth. I'm content ye shall
fall.
Eyes of my youth, you much evil have
seen;
Cheeks of my youth, bathed in tears you
have been;
Strength of my youth, why lament thy
decay?
Thoughts of my youth, ye have led me
astray.
Days of my age, ye shall shortly be
passed;
Pains Of my age. yet awhile We can last:
joys of my age, in true wisdom delight;
Eyes of my age, be religion your light.
Thoughts of my age, dread we not the
cold clod;
Hopes OF my age. ye make me lonesome
and sad;
Thoughts of Heaven, ye make my heart
glad;
Thoughts of The hereafter, We make me
think of my God.

ITEMS OF INTEREST,"

The State Confederate Grand
Camp will meet with rousing re-
ception in Petersburg October 25th.
Among other incidents of the occa-
sion will be return of Confederate
iiags by the national government,
and sham reproduction of battle of
the Crater by State troops.
What difference does it make about
methods, anyway. Results are the
things that count. So many of us
are welded to our way of doing
things, and if we cannot have our
way, we pout and sulk and refuse to
play. 1t must be our plan and we
must be in the lead, or we will
have nothing to do with it.
The subject of a division of the
Virginia Methodist Conference is be-
ing agitsted. Advocates of division
point out that the conference covers
nearly 500 miles; that the pay given
preachers in some of the charges is
too small; that the conference is too
large and unwieldy to properly con-
slider the business which comes be-
fore it, and that it is larger than the
great majority of conferences.
Thomas L. White and a colored
laborer who was assisting him in
some work found pot containing
$400 in money, while moving an old
stable on the farm of the late Oscar
johnson in King George. The farm
was recently purchased by Shiloh
Baptist church, to be used as parson-
age for Rev. j. H. Newbill, the pastor.
Eleven dollars of the money is in
paper. The money will be used
towards paying for new parsonage.
Towards the end of the month
cabbage plants should be set out for
the spring crops. The land should
be well and deeply prepared for this
crop and be made rich as the cabbage
is gross feeder. Run the rows east
and west and put the fertilizer in the
furrow on the south side of the row
and throw light furrow onto it and
on this set the plants. This gives
them the protection of the burrows
thrown up on the north side of the
row, from the cold north winds. Pull
the plants from seed-bed and drop
into bucket of water and set from
this with as little delay as possible,
thus preventing willing of the plants.
Make the rows 3 feet, inches apart
and set the plants 15 inches apart in
the rows. A good fertilizer for the
crops where farm-yard manure is not
in sufficient abundance, to give a
heavy dressing, may be made by mix
ing 800 lbs. nitrate of soda, 750 lbs.
cottonseed-meal, 750 lbs. of acid phos-
phate, and 300 Tbs. of muriate of
potash, to make ton. Apply at the
rate of from 500 to 1000 lbs. to the
acre.-Southern Planter.

stand that is good that is not al
ready guaranteed in the equally good
personality of Mr.. Mason, aud we
submit that. merely on the ground
of practical expediency, it is to the
interest of our people TO vote for Mr..
Mason. In the first place Mr.. Mason
will be member of the majority
in the next Legislature, if elected
He will have, therefore, by reason of
his party affiliations alone a standing
which no Republican could have.
He will, if elected, be assured of
committee assignments which no
member of Republican minority
can expect. His personal influence
will naturally be greater. Again,
Mr.. Mason is man versed in the
present statutes, and by education
and training prepared to grapple
with problems with which Mr..
Griffith can have had no experience
or knowledge. And Mr.. Mason has
shown that ne has not only the
knowledge which fits him for the
Office to which he aspires, but we all
know him to be a capable, practi-
cal man Of affairs in every depart
ment of business. We call, there
fore, not only upon every Democrat,
bnt anon every sensible man to vote
for Mr.. Mason. 1t is not only a
question OF party principle with
Democrats, but of practical common
sense with every tax paying citizen.

NEGRO TAXPAYERS
AND FREE BOOKS.
Whites Pay 90 Per Cent. of Taxes
for Schools Congressman Glass
on The Issue.

VIZ sSS0Ss
The Lynchburg News, edited by
Congressman Carter Glass, in an
editorial on the question of free
books, says:
Let the white people Of Virginia
remember that the total amount of
State taxes paid into the treasury by
the blacks for all purposes is less by
100000 than the amount it costs to
pay the criminal expenses of the race
and to care for the colored insane
Let them remember that the total
amount paid into the State school
fund by the blacks on real and per-
sonal property just covers the amount
paid annually by the State; TO the
Colored Normal school at Peters
burg. Let them remember that
while the negro constitutes 33 per
cent. of the population of Virginia,
he pays less than 4 per cent. of the
taxes of the State. For every dollar
in free books given the black race
would pay 4 cents, and the white
people would paw 90 cents. Every
time free first reader was handed a
colored pupil it would cost the negro
l cent and the white people would
pay the other "a cents. The blacks
receive from the State each year
about $425,00 for schools. They
pay into the school funds approx.
mately $4,000 on local tax, $16, 900
on State tax and $52,O0O on capita
ton tax, making total of $S5, 900.
They now receive for their schooling
$350,000 more than they pay in.
The Republican plan is to increase
this 100000 at an additional ex-
pense to the negro of $4,000. 1t will
cost 100000 to supply the negroes
with free books. The negroes will
pay $4,000 of this, and the white
people will pay the 100000 addi-
tional.
With this record of what the white
people of the State are doing for the
colored race, and what they have been
doing out of their poverty for that
race ever since the war, is it right that
the white people be made to pay
100000 of taxes every year to fur
nish the blacks with free books !?
Should not the negro at least pay for
his school books ? With white child
rem throughout the country districts
needing better schools, better teach
ers, and longer terms, must they still
wait in order that the blacks shall
have free books furnished at the ex-
pense of the parents whose children
need better schools
We ask the thinking and patriotic
citizen, Which is most needed for
our schools-better teachers and
longer terms, or free books under
such conditions?
The answer from the white people
of the Southside and Eastern Virginia
is practically unanimous against such
an iniquity. The white children
want better chance. Will the white
people of the Valley and the great
Southwest consent to tax themselves
not only to provide books for their
own children, but also to help pro.
vide free books to the negroes?
The Democratic party makes no
attack on the negro. 1t has given
him generously the means of the
State to help educate his children.
1t is its purpose to treat him fairly,
and to help him to better living in
every legitimate way.

A REPUBLICAN on MARTIN.

A Journal reporter interviewed
Mr.. Absalom Waller, Republican
candidate for the State Senate from
this district, as to his vote for Unit,
ed States Senator, Mr.. Waller said:
"We are not fighting the good
men of the Democratic party, and
should / receive a certificate of elec-
ton would expect to cast my vote
as State Senator for Hon. Thomas
S. Martin to succeed himself. Mr..
Waller added: 81 consider Senator
Martin the foremost man in the Dem
ocratic party in Virginia today. We
are not fighting such men, but we
are fighting the evils for which the
Democratic party is responsible-too
much taxation, too many offices that
burden without helping the people,
too much Indifference, or worse, as
to how the peoples money, raised by
taxation is spent" Fredericksburg

TROUBLE ABOUT TOMORROW,

Would it not be better to leave to-
morrow with God? That is what is
troubling men; tomorrow's tempta-
tions, tomorrow's difficulties, tomor-
rows burdens, tomorrow's duties.
Martin Luther, in his autobiography,
says: 81 have one preacher that /
love better than any other on earth;
it is my little tame robin, who
breaches to me daily. / put his
crumbs upon my window sill, espec.
tally at night. He hops onto the
window sill when he wants his sup
ply, and takes as much as he desires
to satisfy his need. From thence he
always hops to a little tree close by
and lifts up his voice to God and
sings his carol of praise and graft.
tude, tucks his little head under his
wing and goes fast to sleep, and
leaves tomorrow to look after itself
He is the best preacher that I have
on earth. III. w. Webb-Peploe.

way Company offers to turn the boat
over to the merchants of this COM
munity and let them run it between
here and the Northern Neck at their
own expense and under their own
control.
Since complaint has been made of
the schedule on which the vessel has
been operated hitherto, this offer
made by the company deserves prompt
aud serious consideration. With q
boat run by themselves and for them
selves. the merchants of Norfolk and
Portsmouth surely ought to be able
