deep interest in the recent Virginia
primary, particularly in the race for
Superintendent of Public Instruction.
for two reasons:
/. One Of the candidates, Mr.. Egg
gleston, Jr, was for some years a
resident of North Carolina, and was
superintendent of the Ashville Graded
Schools.
2. Mr.. Eggleston had discovered and
and exposed graft in the department OF
which he has now been chosen the
head, and had otherwise shown his
ability and fitness for that important
position.
The returns from Virginia disclosed
the fact that Mr.. Eggleston was nomi-
mated by a majority of thirty thousa nd
the largest majority received by any
candidate. The large majority speaks
well for the voters of Virginia. 1t is
too often true that the courageous
man who exposes graft is refused
honors, and, while his brave action Sc
cures the removal Of the derelict OF.
fetal, the place is too often given to a
man who lacks the civic courage neces-
sary TO expose wrong-doing That is SO
often the fate Of the public spirited re-
former that it is a matter for congratu-
lation that the Virginia voters have
honored themselves by the significant
majority they have given Mr. Eggles-
ton.
The election Of a man like Mr.. Egg
gleston to the head Of Virginia's sys-
tenn OF public instruction is matter
for congratulation for better reason,
for he Is man whose faith, ideals, be-
liefs, and capacity eminently fit him for
the great Office. In our newer educa-

SENATOR HARMANS RECORD IN THE
SENATE.

When a man has had a public trust
and an opportunity to serve his con-
stituents, and then asks to be put in a
new field it is entirely proper to ask
how he used the first opportunity
given him as a reason why he should
be further trusted. Therefore, we have
taken the trouble to look up Mr.. Har-
mans record while "a member Of the
Senate, and give below few OF his
votes on public questions. Through the
courtesy Of a friend we have had ac-
cess TO the Senate Journal, and the
statements made here are official and
correct:
On February 9Th. 1904 Senator
Keezell, Of Rockingham, offered u re-
solution declaring it to be the sense of
the General Assembly that as far as
practicable, a single list of school books
for the public schools OF the State
should be adopted 10y the Board of
Education, rather than multiple list,
and that an arrangement be made to
exchange old books for new, etc.
This resolution passed the Senate by
vote OF 20 to IS, Mr.. Hartman voting
against it, as did also three OF the four
other Republican members. Mr.. Har-
man, now that he is a candidate, has
been suddenly converted" to the
popular idea of a single list.
The Journal further shows, that
during the long session of 1902 3-O4
there were 1866 roll calls, Of which
Mr.. Hartman missed 95S, and during
the session of 1904 there were 733 roll
calls Of which he missed 5O4. Where
was the Senator who represented the
four great counties Of the Southwest
He drew his pay for every day Of the
General Assembly, much Of the tim,
being at home or elsewhere than in bi!
seat. 1t is remarkable too, that dur
ing this session this often-absent mem
Der offered a resolution increasing III
salary to Sc day, which resolution
was defeated by the Democrats.
Senator Hartman voted to repeal tn
Wharton Fire Insurance law, whicl
prevented fire insurance companie
from combining to increase rates
Since this repeal, insurance rates hav
advanced until premiums are almos
prohibitory. Was this vote in the in
telest Of the people or the Insuranc
Corporations?
Senator Hartman offered a prohibi
ton bill and passed it for Buchanan
Dickinson and Tazewell, excepting tn
town of Pocahontas. If this bill wa

Mr. Editor
in the issue of the Clinch Valley
News of Sept. LIST, / find Il oommuni-
cation from Rev. J. n. Hartman so
very inaccurate that am forced to
answer part of it, Mr. Hartman says
he voted for the school levy. am glad
to know that he did did not know
where to place him. l wish he had
made little more noise before the
election, and not reserved his powers to
be exhausted alter it was too late 10 do
the children of Tazewell any good. Mr..
Hartman says he was much worried
over the failure Of Maiden Spring Dis
trict To support the measure. and pro-
ceeded TO lecture some OF the promi-
nent Republicans Of the district and
then quotes what they say, and en-
dorses it as true, by publishing it over
his name. He quotes them as giving
the following reasons for not voting for
it: "That the schools had been bragg
ed into politics, and that they were
manipulated, managed and controlled
by the Democratic party; that every
dollar paid in school taxes was so
much money contributed to the Demo
cratic campaign fund" There is not
one word Of truth in the latter part of
this assertion, and l cannot see how
Mr.. Hartman helped knowing it. The
facts should be brought out, but the
schools are too important to the grow
ing generation for any candidate to LET
his imagination run wild in his eager
search for votes. The treasurers

records of the District Clerk, are open

RACE SUICIDE
UNDER DEBATE
President Roosevelt Advised
to Look to His Own
Social Set
An APPEAL TO SAVE CHILDREN

washington. April ] g. - The obser-
yations Of President Roosevelt on the
question Of race suicide are receiving
the attention of some of the prominent
delegates to the National Council Of
Women IN session here. Some OF them
take issue with the president on this
subject and say he should SOCK to the
women of his own social set for race
suicide. 1T is the pace set by our
society women. particularly in Official
life" one of the delegates declared,
which makes race suicide a subject for
profound thought The women Of the
middle classes, and the women Of the
submerged half as we call IL, do not
practice race suicide. IL Is the business
burdened the determined to get rich
father and the society-crazy mother
who refuse the cares of parenthood.'
A resolution was reported on the
question of parenthood which takes
issue with the presidents view on the
question Of race suicide and declares
that quality, not quantity, in children
is preferable"
Rev. Anna Howard Shaw, the presi-
dent Of the National Woman's Suffrage
Association, made an address in which
sho openly spoke her mind on the ques-
ton of parenthoOd. saying in part:
1T is said that women should rear
more children. but [ say that you must
first make your country fit 10 rear chill
dren in. Why should women maintain
n government saloon or a daughter to
maintain an evil that pays its graft to
the government We need to mako
this world safe for children. To do 50
we must give them social heredity SO
that they will be borne in safe condi-
tions and protected until grown. This
cannot be done until women have rights
in the state to protect them. We must
have city mothers as well as city faith
ers. We desire the suffrage as a means
to an end"
An appeal to the wOmanhOod to savo
the childhood Of the nation was made
by J. A. McKelway, assistant secretary
of the committee on chilt labor. The
need of national legislation on child
labor was his subject For various
reasons Mr. McKelway explained that
he was not in favor OF national legisla-
ton on this subject The evil. he said,
belongs TO that class that will go unre-
huked, law or no law. unless there is a
local sentiment behind the enforcement
Of the law. Every state should have its
own laws adapted as far as possible
for the real needs of the children.
