The Virginia Primary

Speaker Byrd is preparing bill
To legalize the primary in Virginia.
Really, it seems TO us, tn proper
thing to do would be 10 "squelch"
it. We have bad about enough of il.
Gate City Herald.
We have had quite enough OF il
of its kind. But the merit; OF the
primary method of making patty
nominations must not be judged by
the primary law i'm operation in Vir-
ginia. The principle must not be
condemned because the plan is de-
fective.
The trouble with the primary i'm
Virginia is that there is determined
opposition to it. No doubt large
majority OF the democrats of the
state favor the primary, but those
who oppose IL are the more active
and persistent, and rs a result the
plan never has been perfected and
there is genreal dissatisfaction with
ii The purpose of the opposition
seems to be to prevent the curing of
the defects in the law, knowing
thaat if they can do that ii will be
only a question OF time until the
primary will be abandoned by COM
mon consent.
The opponents of the primary
should he willing To help perfect
the plan and give il fair test. Ii
ii then proves unsatisfactory their
judgment will be vindicated, and
speaking for itself, this newspaper
will join with them in demanding n
return 10 the convention method of
nominating party candidates. But
for some reason, while condemning
the primary on account of certain de-
fects in the law, they are opposed To
the legislation necessary To remedy
such defects.
1t IS mistake 10 suppose, as
some of our Virginia contemporaries
evidently do, that the primary is
necessarily responsible for whatever
factiOnal feeling may exist i'm the
democratic party in Virginia and
Tennessee. The democratic party i'm
Tennessee was rent and torn 10y fac
tional strife before the primary was
introduced, factional feeling having
reached the extreme OF bitterness in
n mob convention held i'm Nashville
i'm 1906.

Some people-most people-like
TO see themselves in pint. Others
"a few-are over sensitive, and say
they don't like ii. Remember, the
county paper is taken by many peo-
pie just for the local news, who will
be delighted TO see the names of their
old friends and acquaintance in its
columns occasionally. It's the only
medium of communication they
have. We picked up a county paper
few days ago, and saw the an
nouncement of the death of "a dear
friend of twenty-five years ago, and
other news about his family, that we
would not have known but for the
paper printing the facts. Don t
wait until your funeral services are
held TO get your name, some way oc-
casionally in the county paper. Let
your old friends who have lost trace
of you know where you are even if
you are in Jail.

LYNcHBUR0'S Sunday
SCHOOL. CENSUS

In another column of this paper
is n clipping from an editorial taken
from a recent issue OF the Lynchburg
News, saying that the Protestant
churches of the Hill City a:e MAX
ing a united effort TO extend the
WORK of Sunday schools in their
midst. No more important step
could be taken by any community.
If this work was thoroughly pushed
and prosecuted at all times, and in
every community there would be no
need of local option elections, for
saloons could not live i'm n communi-
~ made up of Sunday school schol-
ars and workers. Years ago, Prim-
tive Baptist minister said he was
opposed To Sunday schools because
they freed the niggers. - Effective,
through Sunday school work, COM
mencing from the cradle, as it does,
and going on through and up to old
age, faithfully prosecuted, will come
nearer connecting the world and
bringing OH the Millennium than
any other agency. And one of the
strangest and most unexplainable,
UNIV Use and foolish things on earth
is the fact that churches and church
mebmrs including the majority Of
preachers take such little or half
hearted interest i'm this great work
which as poorly as il is done, adds
nearly 80 per ent of all the addi-
lions 10 the churches. We include
preachers, for il IS fact which YOU
can easily prove if you take notice
that not on an average of once a year
do ministers rs n rule speak special
~ on this subject. In twenty SER
mons heard within few months
past, from several different minis
tiers, the writer has heard this special
work mentioned only once, and
then bare, brief mention. 1t is a
fact and n deplorable one, that this is
the chief, greatest and IN ost effective
means OF promoting morality and re-
ligion. The great denominations of
the State have salaried Sunday
school missionaries all over the
State establishing Sunday schools,
work which would not be needed
if each church and its pastors lived
up 10 their privileges and DUTY.

The Evils of Alcoholism

Hereinafter will be found a press
dispatch from Washington, setting
forth the results OF the International
congress held i'm London last July.
The delegates from this country were
appointed hy Secretary Knox, and
some twenty-five governments were
represented. According to the re-
port the delegates from all these
countries concurred in "A finding that
alcohol is not only unnecessary To
human life and comfort. but is in
imical 10 both. The report will be
interesting reading TO those who are
studying the temperance question !:
Washington, Nov, = Alcohol
and alcoholism are two OF the real
and substantial enemies of moral
artistic and commercial progress Of
the human race, according To- the Ie-
port OF the United States delegates
TO the twelfth international congress
on alcoholism, made public 10y the
state department today. The dele
gates were appointed by Secretary
Knox rs one of his first official acts.
The congress was held last July in
London, and twenty-five govern
ments were represented the delegates
of each concuuing in the general
finding that alcohol not only was
unnecessary TO human life and COM
fort but was inimical TO both.
Three departments of the United
States government were represented
by delegates, the state, navy and the
treasury. Twelve representatives
went abroad, and all of them unani-
mously signed the report made pub
lie today, the finding OF which is to
condemn the drinking habit rs dan
gerous to public health and morals
and subversive OF national, moral
commercial and military greatness.
According to the report, the inter-
est shown in the congress was great
er than ever before. Because OF the
Information evolved at thee congress.
the delegates accpeted the invitation
of the queen of Holland 10 hold
their next meeting, two years hence.
at The Hague in conjunction with
the conference of the committee that
Is working for international p eace.
While the conrgess urged the nee
cessity OF imposing the most rigorous
restrictions on the sale and traffic i'm
alcoholic liquors, it regarded as
equally important the need of educat-
Ing the younger generation to true
know ledge of what alcohol Is and
what its effects upon the human sys
tenn are. The delegates believe thar
the numerous recent discoveries as TO
the harmfumess of drunkenness and
even of moderate drinking, also.
should be set before children in order
that they may see the danger of the
practice. The American delegates
sums up this phase of their report by
saying:
increased teaching as to its char
acter and Influence should be provid-
ed to conserve industrial efficiency
in the commercial competition Of
nations, as well as TO promote two of
the chief objections of government
The public health and morals"
