GOOD ADVICE To.soUTHERN

ISCuthern planters to abandon thei'

ONE OF TWO THINGS SHOULD 81
DONE az STATE.

One OF TWO tnlneS SnOuiu ne uOhc ny
the State Of Virginia in regard to the
marine quarantine service. Either
the State quarantine should be abolish
ed and the protection OF Virginia
ports against disease bearing ships
left entirely to the United States gov
eminent, or an effective service should
be established by placing we'll equip
ped station. under the charge Of COM
petent officers, at Old Point Comfort.
The present system Is generally re-
garded as useless nuisance. and
there will be no satisfaction until
there Is 4 revision.
In the news columns of this paper
today 1t Ia announced that Governor
Swanson has decided to urge the legis-
lature when 1t meets again to enact
new quarantine laws, doing away with
the inspections at this city and Nor
folk, and appropriate a sufficient sum
for the establishment and maintenance
Of State station ut the entrance to
Hampton Roads. This recommended
ton NO doubt will meet with opposi-
ton. AS II will be regarded by many
as involving an unnecessary expendi-
ture Of money. 1t Is believed, how
ever. that when the Legislators have
bad the situation thoroughly explained
to them. they will see that 1t Is essen
tial either to carry out the govern
or's recommendation, or pass law
abolishing the state quarantine.
It is agreed that the present Fed
efal quarantine service at Old Point Is
effective and gives the Virginia ports
adequate protection. This service is
maintained by the government. it Is
said, because the Virginia system is
NOT regarded Is being effective. There
fore. just 80 long ss the State makes
no Improvement. the Federal authort-
ties will continue to perform the ser
vice at Old Point without cost to Vir-
ginia. And II Virginia should do

tirely. the United States would 90 on

The question for virginia to decide
10 whether or not she will surrender
this duty to the Federal government.

ed to the Federal authorities Is blow

Q movement in the direction Of further
