THERE is NEED OF A NIGHT

mass mcs:ing OF the citizens or
Newport News has been called for

OF establishing q night school In this
city and II is to he hoped that the
attendance will be large ana that the
enthusiasm will be hearty enough to

backing OF the people generally. The

ed by the city school board. the
4 members Of which deserve great
credit for their efforts to establish
sthis much needed institution That
there is need and demand for a
might school in Newport News there
8 Is not doubt There are scores,
and even, perhaps. hundreds OF young
wage carriers in this city who were
scompelled to become bread winners
when they should nave been at
s school. Many of these young men
feel their lack of education keenly,
and are ambitious to acquire ut least
common school education, but as
sthe conditions prevail in Newport
News IL is Impossible for them to
\ gratify their desires in this respect.
a night school would grant them the
opportunity they seek.
A superficial canvass shows that
there are actually large number
of young men in this city who are
extremely DESTROYS of having q night
school opened, and 1t Is believed that
II one Is opened the attendance
will be large. The contention has
been made that there are not enough
young men In Newport News who
want to attend night school to make
II pay to open one. but we are In
q clined to doubt that assertion. II
such did prove the case there would
of course, be no necessity for the
SCHOOL, but 1t is reasonable to be-
lieve that there will be no complaint
on the score of attendance after the
school is once opened. Newpor,

THE TOBACCO WAR IN KEN
TUCKY

TUCkY.
Though there has not been great
deal said about them In the newspn =
pers, the raids of the might riders
In Southern and Central Kentucky
have Leen going on for nearly two
years. They began in an attempt by
the tobacco growers to organize and
control production with view to OBJ
taining higher prices. The growers
aliege that the tobacco trust had pre-
vented competition among buyers and
thus forced down prices to q point
which left them very little profit. The
aim of the organization was to re-
duce the acreage and to withhold the
crops from the markets until the trust
came to time. The plan, however. en-
countered the same difficulty that in-
variably confronts all agricultural
combination. There were always
enough men who refused to enter the
comt.1e to keep the markets we'll
supplied and those who We're with
holding their crops gained nothing
The might rider" was the result
Bands Of armed and masked men be-
gan To attack planters outside of the
combination. Warehouses were burn
ed and crops destroyed. More than
n year ago the town of Princeton was
raided and property valued at 100000
was destroyed. Other raids were
made at Eddyville and Fredonia, and
yet, Int little was heard of 1t In the
The recent Hopiinsville
raid, which brought the matter so
prominently before the publics atten-
tlon, resulted in damage to the amount
OF 100000. Besides these. there have
been raids on many Individual planta-
lions. 1t Is computed that the total
loss caused by the raiders in the two
years that they have been operating,
approaches s1,00O.0O0
And in all this time there appears
to have been no arrests and no con-
slstent attempt by the authorities to
stop the lawlessness. 1t has been a
revival of the Kux Khan of Recon-
structlon days, but the work of might

ling the situation. The better class
of citizens of the State very natural
ly resented having the State the
scene of such unchecked lawlessness,
and regardless of politics. they fought
fer an administration that would
make the state law abiding. Never
theless the new government has a
hard fight ahead rs the tobacco grow
ers have well perfected organization
and do not propose to give up without
n hard struggle, but 1t Is; believed that
eventually the might riders" will he
compelled to give UP their nefarlous
practices.
A peculiar incident growing out of
the raids of the might riders is the
appeal of the Kentucky growers to
the federal government for aid They
have asked Secretary Cortelyou to de-
posit s5,00O,000 In the national banks
of that State TO make 1t easier for
them to obtain loans on their crops
and thus avoid the necessity of SELL
ing. The request is reminder of
some OF the appeals that used to so
out from Kansas in the lean days Of
populism in the early nineties.

THE REASON.

The socalled panic now exists only in
the mind of the individual. Otherwise
it is practically thing OF the past and
were it not for the fact that we have had
a financial scare there would be as
much money in circulation as at any
time before the furry. AS a matter
of fact there has been no real panic
outside Of Wall street and it was
brought about by drop in prices of
securities which had reached point
where they must topple over and come
down to solid basis. The scare re-
suited in people hiding their money
and the extent OF currency stringency
is measured by the amount stored
away in every community. Bring this
currency out and there would now be
as much money in circulation as at any
time, so that the people have it within
their power to relieve the stringency
by showing confidence in the continued
prosperity which they have enjoyed
