A SPLENDID RECORD.

The fact was recently brought out
in our local columns, that FOR the
years 1904, 1909, 1906, city Collector
I. y. Davis had collected the taxes on
every piece of real estate IN Lynchburg
and expected 10 he able To make the
same report for 1907. GAS To taxes
on personal property the item con
tinues, 'it should be considered that
the colored population Of Staunton Is
very small ~ compared with Lynch
burg, and yet in nine years Mr.. DAVIS
has never returned rs much as s5W
delinquent.
These facts speak elOquently to Mr.
Davis credit as n vigilant, industrious
and Jealous official. The News ven
lures the assertion that Mr. Davis re-
cord In this respect is equalled by no
other city collector in the Common
wealth. The achievement represents
10 our mind about the maximum M
rigid discharge of official responsible
", and constitutes but another strong
indication Of the many that can be
afforded To show that l.ynchburg en-
lows the best administered municipal
government in the state. Indeed, II Is
not easy TO conceive that any city IN
the entire country can 0utring ours
on this score. -Lynchburg News.
This is indeed a splendid record, and
one of which the Hill City has just
cause for pride

AWAY WITH THE HYPOcRIcY

There was one negro on the Taft
notification committee, put there fOI
effect and negro like went where ne
was not wanted.
When he registered at the leading
hotel Of the city, they were afraid to
turn him of for fear Of the effect It
would have ON the negro vote of the
country, but was told that he would
have To take his meals I'm his room,
for if he entered the dining room the
"white walters would at once quit
work. No self-respectng white man
would have suffered the alternative,
eat alone or leave, and no self-respect-
ing negro would have done so. The
fact is it was sheer hypocrisy putting
the negro on the committee the
''amendments" are saturated with
the same spirit, and the sooner the
white people Of this nation abandon
hypocrisy for candOr and courage the
better for white and black alike.
That negro who was accorded the
liberties of a Cincinnati hotel and at
the same time locked in one room,
should take the stump for Mr.. Bryan,
and learn from Democracy in future
not TO 90 where he is not wanted.
This is the effect of the Booker Wash
ington example who was recently HE'D
away on the eth floor of the white
folks hotel in Cleveland rather than
stay with dearest members Of his
own race.

Englishmen, that he inspired that
