StraSburs News PaVOrS Mr. Ward.

The following editorial comment
from the Strasburg News is very
pleasing To the friends of Mr.. Rob
ert NJ. Ward, of Winchester, who
is candidate for the State Senate
from Shenandoah and Frederick
counties and the city of Winchester.
The News says:
This time the nomination for
State Senator belongs to either
frederick county or Winchester.
To that part of the district north of
Cedar creek. This statement can
not 6e successfully refuted. and
from the information at hand from
various parts of Shenandoahcounty
1t will be verified primary-day.
many democrats To our knowledge
instead of being inclined to disre-
gard 1t being openly in favor of
continuing it.
They intend to abide by the
rule of rotation and do as hand
somely by Mr.. Ward as Frederick
did by Senator Tavenner four
years ago.
we believe that Senator Tav-
enner has made mistake in enter
ing the contest, for it will be i'm
possible for him to go to Cedar
creek with the solid democratic vote
behind him, and which he must
have to win, as he will lose the
votes of the many Shenandoah
democrats who believe in the pres
ervation of the senatorial rule of ro-
tation; and if he persists in staying
in the fight until primary-day, he
will find it operating to his. disad-
vantage as it worked to his advan-
tage four years ago"

To Educate Negro Farmers.

Coming at this time-when the
inability to secure intelligent farm
help Is So pronounccd-we are very
much interested in a pamphlet just
received from the Hampton Normal
and Agricultural Institute, an insti-
tuition for the education of the
Negro.
The course is divided into three
years, and if the student applies
himself with the proper degree of
care, he should graduate as an
intelligent farmer and become a
useful and valuable member of the
community in which he takes up
his home.
Looking around Berryville, it
seems that at least twenty-five of
the loafers who hang around
Church street, and the corner of
Main, should be glad an opportunity
to get good education at such a
low cost.
The admission fee of $50 to the
school can be worked out; the cost
of books (about SO per year, can be
earned through work at the school;
the cost of board $50 per month)
can be earned through work.
If the Negro really wants an op-
portunity TO make something of
himself, this appears to be his
chance.
Applicants for admission to the
school should address Ii. B. Fris-
sell, Principal, Hampton, Va.

ing To jamestown, Yorktown and
Williamsburg, Virginia, and Wash

in advance OF the jamestown Cele-
bration in commemoration of the
three huudredth anniversary of

Council Stands Pat"

At the regular monthly meeting
OF the Town Council Monday night.
the only matter of importance
which came up for action was the
subject of the roadway to the pro-
posed new depot.
After hearing letter read from
Chief Engineer Churchill, Of the
Norfolk & Western Railway Com
pany, the Council instructed the
Recorder to reply that the Council
had already submitted its ultima
tum, and that no further PROPOSE
ton would be made by them.
The ultimatum was to the effect
that the town would pay the $500
for the Marks land, as allowed
under the condemnation proceed
ings recently instituted, and would
deed to the railway company in fee
simple strip ten feet in width for
the purpose Of layinganothertrack.
In return for this concession the
railway company was to construct
the roadway and a stone retaining
wall.
Mr.. Churchill's letter suggested
that 1t was not necessary to CON
struct the retaining wall.
No action was taken concerning
the new reservoir on the Blue
Ridge. but a computation from
Mr.. NJ. W. Jones, to the effect
that 2210 cubic yards of earth had
been moved in that work. was read.
Some argument was precipitated
concerning the charge for tapping
the water pipes, and it was unani-
mously the opinion of the Council
that the price should be the same
$3.50 for tapping the main pipes
or for tapping a side line leading
INTO adjoining or nearby property.
1t Is believed that called meet
ing of the Council will be held
shortly, at which time the reservoir
subject will be thoroughly discus
sed in all its phases. and it is very
probable that work will at once be
ordered recommended and rushed
to finish.
As far as can be judged, about
two-thirdS of the work OF the new
reservoir has been completed: and
it Is imperative that the remaining
one-third should be completed as
soon as possible.
The Council members seem to
think that the quality of the work
thus far done Is first class.
The Council adjourned subject
to a call of the Mayor.
