publican State Committee of Virginia

OF delegated representatives of the Re-

NorIOlk Nlrglnlan Pilot.
In an interview in a Richmond after
noon newspaper, in which he reiterates
his determination to offer again for the
Office he now occupies, Mr.. j. Taylor
Ellyson declares that, while there is no
precedent for a Lieutenant Governor
standing for reelection, there is also
no precedent against mis- so standing
ANY more than there is a precedent
against his having been unanimously
reelected chairman of the State Demo
cratic Executive Committee for the last
nineteen years"
No, there is no precedent against nor
any reason why one and the same per-
son should not be reelected for an in
definite period to the Lientenant-Gov-
ernorship, provided he is the choice of a
majority of the properly qualified suf-
fragans of his party for the office.
Nor is there any precedent against or
any reason why one and the same per-
son should not serve indefinitely as
Chairman of. the State Democratic
Committee, provided he is chosen for
the position by the properly delegated
authorities.
But there is every reason why neither
Mr.. EllysoD nor any other person should
hold the two positions at one and the
same time or be candidate for public
Office while serving as head of the party
organization.
We are swift to condemn Republicans
who violate the proprieties by holding
dual positions which are altogether in
compatible. Consistency at least de-
mands that the Democrats of Virginia
practice what they preach.

Since Harry Tucker gave Judge Mann
such lambasting at Boydton the Judge
has concluded that joint debates do not
enlighten the people, and he, therefore,
does not want any more discussions
with Mr.. Tucker. We strongly suspect
that the real reason of Judge Mann's
new idea on the question is, that the
joint debate at Boydton was little too
enlightening.

Mr.. GILLESPIE FOR GOVERNOR.

From all sections of the State there
still come calls for Hon. A. P. Gillespie
to be the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor. And even at the National Capt.
tai the newspapers report that it is the
general opinion that he is the man
to lead the Republicans in Virginia this
year. 1t is thought by many that the
time is suspicious for the Republicans,
and that with a strong and clean man
for their candidate they can surely
win.
Many of the Democratic voters in
Virginia are becoming FESTIVE under
machine rule. They see that an office
holders trust is in control, and that the
affairs of the Commonwealth are being
made Of secondary interest to success
of the trust. There is a strong feeling
among the masses that the financial,
the educational and other affairs of the
State are not being handled with due
care. The growing strength of the
Republican party in the Ninth District
and the ether white districts has made
great change in sentiment in the east
ern part of the State, especially in the
cities. To reach and utilize these
changed conditions Mr.. Gillespie is re-
gsrded as an ideal candidate. A trained
lawyer, a successful business man, with
sn absolutely clean personal and politi-
cal record he would command the sup
port of united Republican party and

Ex-President Roosevelt dec ares in an
article in last weeks Outlook that it is
the duty of America to wait and see
whether or not Japan succeeds in pre-
venting the immigration to this country
of any appreciate number of japanese

Although, he asserts, Americans have

The Hon. John NJ. Parsons is now in
Washington, engaged in pressing his
contest against E. w. Saunders for q
seat in the House of Representatives
from the Fifth Virginia Congressional
District. Mr.. Parsons is anxious to
have the case considered and decided
during the present session of Congress.
He has made out q very strong
contest, and it is to be hoped
that the House will give him the
seat which Saunders obtained by
fraudulent redistricting measure
and by other questionable means. Not
a single reputable Democratic news
paper in Virginia has ever undertaken
to defend the Virginia Legislature for
reforming the Fifth District by taking
Floyd county therefrom and attaching
1T to the Sixth. This action of the Cen
eral Assembly was disreputable from
both a political and moral standpoint.
and violated every feature of the con-
stitutional provision for the apportion-
ing of the State into Congressional Dis
tricts.

wOrmy Apples and How to Prevent Them.

Who has not bitten into a tempting
apple, only to find a disgusting white
worm in full possession? But the fruit
grower has reason to know this worm
better than the fruit buyer, because it
makes him lose money. A recent bull
letin from the State Experiment Sta
ton states that this worm ruins from
one-third to one-hslf of each crop of
Virginia apples, causing loss of 8, O0O,-
coo bushels of apples a year, worth
81, 900, 900 to Virginia fruit growers.
This is tremendous tribute to paw to
one little pest. But, fortunately, this
loss can be easily prevented. The ex-

DEMOCRATIC NOME RULE(2

Way back in 1885, says the Taze-
well Republican, the Virginia Republi-
cans declared for local option and this
was the first declaration ever made in
this State, etc Oh, pshawl Local
option is only the application to the
liquor issue of the Democratic principle
of Home Rule and that has been a dis
tinctive feature of Democratic doctrine
from the foundation of the party. Re-
publicanism has always been in favor of
concentrating authority, the Democracy
of diffusing it among the people.-Nor-
folk Virginian-Pilot.
Claiming to be for Home Rule or a
rule of the people and not practicing
the doctrine has been distinctive
feature of the modern Democratic par
ty. For years the Southern Democracy,
especially the Virginia Democrats, have
been stripping the people of authority
and concentrating it in the hands of q
few men, who exercise it as political
rings" or machines
The Virginia Democracy in these lat
ter years have been diffusing authority
among the people with vengeance.
The first diffusion, through the violent
making of a new constitution, was to
deprive large majority of the elector-
ate of the State of the right to vote.
and the establishment of an oligarchy
that has usurped the authority that
rightly belongs to the people.
While making a great hue and CRY
about having United States Senators
elected by the people, the Democrats in
this State have denied the people all op-
portunity to elect many of their home
or local officers The people have beer
declared unfit to elect the judges that
preside over our courts, while in all the
great Republican states the judges are
elected by the people. The school trus.
tees, the county superintendent OF
schools, the electoral boards, the roac
boards, and, perhaps, others that the
people are deeply interested in, are ap
pointed by the circuit court judges, ex
cept the county superintendent, whC
are appointed by a partisan board o.
education. While it is claimed that the
judges are elected by the Legislature
composed of representatives of the peo
pie, this claim is not true. In most in
stances they are chosen by the Demo
cratic representatives from the respec
tive judicial circuits. We know of in
stances where one member of the Leg
islature selected the judge, this judcia
circuit being an example. Then tn,
Governor of the State has been CLOTHED
with authority by the new constitution
that is dangerous to the rule of the peo
pie. He, now possessed of a greatly en-
larged appointive power, that can be
and is being used for the strength
ening of the political machine which ha,
absorbed the authority of the people.
