8 Note of Warning.

In these days of pateTnslIsm and
GENERALIZATION the quiet admonition OF
Mr.. Justice Brewer, of the United
States Supreme Court. delivered in
Milwaukee last Wednesday night.
should Cause those who heediessly
take up new reforms to pause well
and consider.
Justice Brewers words Sh0Nld have
great weight with the opponents of
the income tax. who in their desire
to acquire additional revenue for the
nation, are locking more to immedi-
ate necessities than to the possible
results Of their action.
Justice Brewer says-and. we be-
iievc. truthfully-that II the power to
tax all incomes be given to the nation
al government. We shall see the States
taxed. not cut of their existence. but
out OF their vitality Any person who
viii view the situation without bias
or prejudice may see readily tina; such
possibility BY no means Is remote
In this proposed amendment We GER
tainly are tranSgreSsing upon the
rights Of the states. even though We
do amend the Constitution TO conform
/ 10 the national will
The mere fact Of amending the Con
stitutiOn does not alter thr- principle
at stake by any means. aad the dis
turbance Of the relations between ths
nation and the States resulting IL ar
impairment Of the states rights can.
not but weaken the structure of ou'
government and make its effect fei'
in after years.
Justice Brewers words are those 81

found knowledge o. the Constitution
and inspired by patriotism. Whcr

DIR. PORTER ON CHRISTIAN
SCIENCE

The Daily Press has received a copy
of a pamphlet recently issued by Rev
]. w. Porter, ID. d.. in which the doc
ter discusses Christian Science or
"Eddylsm." as he calls it. The doctor
goes after Christian Science IN char
acteristic fashion-tnere is nothing
sugar coated about his pamphlet and
he nfinces no words In his denuncia-
ton of the sect. He declares that
Christian Science is neither Christian
scientific. consistent nor scrupulous,
and when one has read the pamphlet
one is liable to have an idea that the
doctors summary is about correct.
While he was pastor OF the New
port News Baptist church DR.. Porter
preached several strong sermons on
the subject of Christian Science. and
his u;terances called forth some
lengthy replies in public print from
members of the new sect.

WHO ARE THE HOWLERS

DAYS" gets up on his hind legs ana
hepins 10 talk about the evils Of the
primary plan. The long suffering pub
lie is informed at stated intervals that
unless the primary plan is abolished
Virginia will land in the Republican
column in the near future. and the de-
fects In the present system are heid
up in their worst light for the inspec-
tisn Of the public. Nothing is SAID
about the good features CT the primary
or about the abominabie conditions
that were eliminated by the adoption
OF the plan.
Next TO some of the "old line" DEM
ocrats who have never become ac-
eustomed to the idea of allowing the
people to actually choose their canei-
dates for office. the greatest knock
ers of the primary system are TO De
fo,nd among the Republicans. This
seems strange when we are told that
primaries are likely TO cause Virginia
to turn Republican. doesn't vt? 1t Is
not so strange, however, when you
come to think lne thing over and get
down to the facts. Nothing that the
Republican party could do toward win
ming the Old Dominion would be half
so conducive toward that end as the
success of a movement against the
Democratic plan Of holding primaries
TO choose candidates TO office. If the
Virginia Democrats are tired of con-
troll in the State, let them go back TO
the old mass meeting and convention
and they will be relieved Of their bur
den quickly enough. The demand OF
tae day in this State is for clean poll
ties. and the primary more than any
thing else Is responsible for the i'm
urovement that has been made in poll
teal conditions during the past few
years.
The primary system has its defects;
it's most ardent advocates admit that,
but whatever may be its Deficiencies
the primary is to be preferred TO the
mass meeting or convention. We be-
ieye a large majority OF the members
o. the Democratic party in Virginia
