Society and author of The Economic
History of Virginia in the Seventeenth

This is mine of information about

innumerabla works bearing upon the sue

corning the seventeenth, which was, after
all, the formative period. Mr. Bruce gives
information concerning the origin of the
various classes, being especially detailed
concerning the component parts of the high
er planting class. Many prominent Virginia
families will be able to recognize their
origin in his account of these early colo

reader Will be that the later distinctive

WORLD GROWING BETTER.
View Expressed in Lecture Before the
Secular League.

Thomas E. Will delivered an address yes
t-terday afternoon before the Secular League,
in which he stated that the world is grow
natural process of evolution society will at
tain a degree Of perfection and liberalism
undreamed of now.
He said in part: Scattered throughout
society today and fighting the battles of
emancipation are knights than whom no st.
George or Roland or Occur de Lion will,
in coming days. bear a prouder name. Some
seek to emanicipate the human mind from
the slavery of outgrown creeds; others
would free men from bondage to drugs or
drink; some exposing corruption, and,
in many ways, weakening the influence Of
the master class: some are working to ex-
in the hands Of the people.
Were it possible to round up all such
truly liberal souls into one corral. either
geographical or doctrinal. one might wish
to enter 1t and find there his heaven.
That we shall accomplish this at an early
day seems too much TO hope We, can,
however. do the next best thing. We can
strive ourselves to ascend the serene
heights upon which dwell the genuine
liberals and emancipators; can recog-
niZe the ubiquitous character of such be-
ngs, and keep weather eye open for them
everywhere. peeping through the cracks
and over the tops of the high board ring
fences inside of which we all. orthodox
and heterodoX, conventional and uncon-
ventional, conformists and nonconformists
inclose ourselves; and, on finding them. we
can lend them. If need be, helping hand
and bid them Godspeed.

he found himself superseded by men he had

A fight Is on between the State ana
Federal authorities i'll North caro-
lima in which the people of Virginia
are very much interested. the
courts of North Carolina resenting
decision of Judge Pritchard, OF the
United States Court, in regard to their
new passenger rate law, as an en-
croachment upon the rights OF the
State, have ignored it and are being
backed not ouly by the people but by
the executive of the State. Disre-
garding the decision of the Federal
Judge on Thursday district passen-
ger agent and ticket agent were ar
rested, found guilty in the police
court of selling passenger tickets con-
trary to the new rate law and each
sentenced to thirty days on the chain
gang. What the result in the pres
ent action of the authorities of that
State will be does not now appear
but backed as she will be by Virginia
which has a similar grievance, ano
every other Southern State it is safe
to predict that in some way or othel
she will be the winner.
The agents arrested and sentenced
may not be punished and probably
will not be but the railroad authori
ties will find that in encroaching upor
the rights of the states, so dear to the
Southern people, that they have al
expensive and endless fight upon thel
hands, causing continual irritation
stirring up people and legislatures tt
retaliate against them and to str'k'
them at every turn and opportunity,
which will make them willing to sub
nit to the state courts and authori
ties at no distant day. If wise the.
will find someway at once of retreat
ing gracefully from their present pc
sition.
