The imposing Catholic procession
which took place in London Oh last
Sunday was not attended with blood
shed as il was feared it would. Pro.
testant England was stirred to. its pro-
foundest depths, however, and it il
said that nothing saved the outbreak
but the order issued by the Govern
ment forbidding the carrying of the
"Host' in the procession. Let us hope
that the age in which we live will not
be spotted and stained by religious
war, or rather, war waged in the
name OF religion. A "saint run mad
is desperate as well as despicable.

FROM THE RICHMOND NEWS
LEADER.

We cannot assume that the editor,
of the Culpeper Exponent, the Clarke
Courier or the Farmville Herald art
more anxious 10 be popular than 10 be
right. Suppose one of them, after
studying the political situation
thoroughly, became satisfied that the
election of Mr. Taft would be better
for the country and for his own people
than the election Of Mr.. Bryan? Would
he not feel that his duty required him
10 say what he thought? Would he
think himself traitor To the Demo
cratic party or his readers If he print
Ell I'm his editorial columns the result
of his own study and consideration?
Our answer is, that conditions in
the Southern States are such that in
our opinion no white man of the South
has any more right TO support par
~ that committed the crime of the
ages that 0fenfranchising the negroes
and that would now wipe out Jim
Crow regulations and restore recon-
struction horrors, than did the white
men Ofthe South have during the war
of deserving Lee for Grant.
Mr.. Watterson's latest suggestion is
cause for new storm signals along the
Southern coast.

Ii is intimated that Messrs. Bryan
and Taft will early in October meet in
Joint discussion In the city Of Chicago.
II so We may witness fur flying such
as has never before been known OF i'm
the history Of political struggles in
this our land Of free speech. In the
olden days 1t was not unusual TO select
two conspicuous representatives to
decide by personal combat the issues
involved between contending nations.
Why not transfer the present fight to
these two gladiators? IL will save time
and money aud National unrest.

GOOD ADVICE TO THE PREACHERS

a good and wise layman of the
Methodist Church writing TO the
Richmond News-Leader has this to
say to Brothers Davis, Cannon and
VIM.
"My prayer is that these dear breth-
rem may take this whole matter to
God on their Bonded knees. and that
He may show them the effect this
controversy is having on the church.
on the world, and on themselves, and
that they may hasten TO bridge this
chasm that is fast forming between
them, by letting brotherly love con
tlnue, and endure all things for the
sake Of Him who loved them so dear
ly as to give not only His reputation
but His life AZ well for them
And to this the rest Of us say
Amen" The war Of words is un-
seemly dangerous if not positively
disgraceful. "Let US have peace"

ALLEGED ERRORS OF TRIAL
COURT

There are 169 assignments OF er-
ror. taking up 81 pages of printed
record. In view of the conclusion,
however, to which we have come ii
is unnecessary to review many of
these assignments-the ones review
ed covering all the propositions of
law that We deem essential to the
guidance of the district court in the
event of a second trial. Compre-
hensiyely stated, the assignments of
error which we shall review relate:
First, to the view adopted by the
trial court carried out in its rulings
on the admission and exclusion of ev-
idence and embodied in its charge to
the jury that shipper can be con-
victed of accepting a concession from
the lawful published rate. even
though it is not shown as bearing on
the matter of intent, that the ship
per at the time of accepting such con-
cession knew what the lawful pub
lished rate actually was
Secondly, to the view adopted by
the trial court that the number of
the offenses is the number of carloads
of property transported, irrespective
of whether each carload was the
whole or the part only of a single
transaction resulting in shipment;
and.
Third, whether in the imposition
of the fine named, the trial court
abused the discretion vested in the
court
