There is direct slap in the face of
free government and an insult to the
intelligence of the people, as well as an
invidious distinction drawn between
officers elected by the people, and those
appointed by some individual like a
judge of court, the governor, or the
general assembly.
There is proposed amendment to
Section ITO of the constitution which
reads as follows. "There shall be elect
ed or appointed for four years, as the
general assembly may provide, com
missioners of the revenue for each
county, put should such
commissioners of the revenue be chosen
by election by the people, then they
shall be ineligible for reelection to the
office for the next succeeding term.u
If, however, these officers are ap-
pointed, they may hold their offices
forever. Was the intelligence of the
people ever more discredited Why
not appoint all of our officers ?

REVISION DOWNWARD.

If there is anything of which the
present Reorganization" in Virginia
should be ashamed, it is the manner
of holding the last Primary Election.
If the half be true which is told of it
then political purgatory is entirely too
good for it.
We will cite only one or two instan-
ces. The county of Tazewell, we are
told was conceded Tucker county.
The judges of the primary were all
organization men. They are SO all
over the State, appointed not TO hold
fair election so much, as because they
are partisans of the leaders. At several
precincts in Tazewell we hear the
judges found it necessary on account of
s'pressing business" to be elsewhere, so
at those precincts no election was
held. This, we are told, occurred not
only in Tazewell, but in other counties
at precincts known to be Tucker pre-
cincts. At one strong Tucker precinct
we are advised the returns actually
came in with majority for Judge
Mann.
We do not vouch for these reports,
but it is pretty certain that they will
be written up and published exactly
as they occurred. What may have oc-
CURED at many hundred other precincts
can only be conjectured, and even with
these mighty AIDS Judge Mann can
find only about 5000 majority to his
credit, and the vote was inexplicably-
may be we had better say distressingly
light.
The primary as conducted in the
Martin Montague contest was disgrace
full. 1t has not improved except in the
downward scale. The revision has
been downward, disgracefully down.

Pratt or some other as great as he,
could put that scene into marble, or on
canvas, there need be nothing imagi-
native about it, as in the case of ''The
Boy Prisoner of Andersonville. He
need only paint the picture or chisel
the marble true to history.
Suppose the South had Michel
angelo or even a Bella Pratt to put
into imperishable marble or on canvas
such scene? 1t would astonish the
world, for the very idea of such deed
pals the human Imagination. But it
is not yet in marble, nor on canvas.
Yet it is history. Did the soldiers OF
the United States ever commit such a
crime? the world would ask. They
did, and its story was told by Captain
Chapman at the last meeting of Mos
by's men. Six prisoners he said were
either hung or dragged to death in the
streets of Front Royal.
The North has its painters and it's
artists. A government lavishly pays
them money to paint scenes, model
statues of heroes, to make history and
to distort history. Yet the South in
her poverty has no artists, no money,
no defender,
1.-The niobe Nation! there she stands,
Childless and crownless, in her voiceless
woe,
Whose holy dust was scottered long ago."
She has no champion, no sculptor to
put into form the truth, no painter to
place upon canvas picture of such a
scene as this-one in which, thanks be
to God, no Confederate soldier could
have taken part, except as the victim.
Section so of the constitution is to be
amended so as to enable any pet
scheme to be rushed through. The
constitution now requires bill to be
READ AT LENGTH. The proposed
change allows it to READ BY TITLE.
There is a Niger in the wood pile here,
so look out for him.

SUM MAUI ASKS FOR CONSTITUTE
TON OF PROPOSED KULA PIPE
LINE.

The report of Hugh Howell, the
County Engineer of Maui upon the
proposed Kula pipe line, which has
been sent in to Superintendent of PUB
lie Works Marston Campbell places the
cost of this work at $4,000. The re-
port will be carefully examined by
Campbell before submission to the le-
gislature and some of its details may
be changed The estimate is made
figuring on 12O57O feet of pipe line of
varying sizes, which is expected to
give a supply of 100000 gallons psr
day The principal items in the es-
innate are as follows: 12O,57O feet of
pipe, $47,930; clearing Is foot forest
trail for 23,77O feet, $500; grading trail
and dressing with gravel. $475O; haul
ing pipe, at $12. so per ton, $4,000;
packing pine ON horses in forest. etc,
$500; trenching and laying pipe, 81, $50;
wire spans across gulches, 81 600: in
cidentals, including engineering. $4,-
go Total $4,000. The Haiku Su-
gar Company, which owns the water
rights states that it is willing to give
the amount mentioned, 10000 gallons
per day to the government for the use
mentioned.
This work has been done by the
County of Maui on account OF the fact
that there was no money available in
in the Department of Public Works for
the survey and it was hoped to get
the appropriation from the coming le-
gislature Engineer Howell states that
he believes that the pipeline will be
good investment for the territory and
will also induce many new home
steaders to locate in Kula

MRS. VICES OF
CABBAGE PATCH

Delighted cried President Roose-
welt when in Louisville he was shown
the verltable Cabbage Patch" where
in Mrs. Alice Hogan Rice found Mrs.
Wigs and Lovey Mary And then
the Chief Executive went on to say
that he regarded Mrs Wigs life quite
as highly as the simple life preached
by his friend the Rev. Charles Wagner.
Presidential praise is high praise al
ways, and in his speech delivered be-
fore the students of the State Agricul-
tural College, at Lansing, Mich, on
May 81, 1907, he said. You will learn
the root principles of self-help and
helpfulness towards others from Mrs.
Wigs of the Cabbage Patch just as
much as from any formal treatise on
charity" whiih shows that the Exc
cutive is thoroughly in accord with
the American people, who love MRS.
Wigs as they have loved few other
women of literature and the stage.

and there was much interest in his
ruling. Logan said he was astonished
and asked the mayor to reconsider,
adding that the motion had nothing
to do with any of the matters in dis
pute which had affected former mo-
lions. Fern wouldn't allow an appeal
from his ruling, acting upon the same
advice, and the usual method of pass
ing the business was carried out
Logan rose and inquired when the
mayor thought he would be able to
preside, saying he was weary of the
job of putting motions.
A written slip of paper from the
mayors secretary provided the an
swer, read by Fern, which was to the
effect that the mayor was not block
ing business; the board had found a
way to do its business without him;
he declined to have any part in the
business until assured of its validity.
On the next matter there was agree
ment. It was a proposition to rent
the upper floor of the Mcintyre build
ing for $3.50 a month. Fern at first
protested, wanting the matter to go
to a committee and wanting time for
consideration. 81 talked the matter
over with you the other day." said
Quinn, addressing the mayor, "and IL
has been pretty well threshed out.
You seemed to be satisfied then"
The mayor put a motion by Logan
that the matter go to special COM
mittee. 1t carried unanimously and
Logan. Mcclellan and Cox were nam
ed.
Letters were received from the
county attorney, clerk and district
magistrate, naming their employees,
and the board approved them the ma
yor again refusing to put motions.
Logan wanted to know why, saying
that the offices in question were cleo
tive and not at issue in the dispute
between the mayor and the majority
of the board. The answer was again
read by the mayor, from slip of
paper hastily pencilled over by his
secretary. 1t repeated that he would
take no part in the business until sure
it was legal.
Logan in his appeal had remarked
that if the mayor kept on with his po-
Icy the board might interfere with
his subordinates.
Bids for supplies were taken up,
and unanimously referred to the COM
mittee on roads, etc. The documents
we're given to Chairman Quinn, of the
supervisors committee, instead of Nc
Clellah of the mayors committee.
The meeting adjourned to three
o'clock this afternoon.

alleged to have been importing wo-

been associated with the nefarious
business. He has been diligently

past three or four weeks, but has man
aged to keep out of sight. Last night,
however, he was located at Moiliili
and was arrested this morning by U.

went out with an officer himself.
