For State Wide Election

Petitions for the passage of an
act of the Legislature providing
for submission of the liquor
question to vote of the people are
now being circulated in Clarke
county, and, in all probability, in
every County in the State.
Without reference to any mans S
opposition or support of the move
ment for Statewide prohibition,
we believe the movement for the
election should prevail.
The State has been agitated and
stirred up over the question long
enough, and it is now time to settle
1T, so that we can have peace.
Our candid personal opinion is
that the State will go dry" by a
majority of from 10000 to 25, 900,
but whether our prediction is cor
rect or not, we think the election
should be held and the matter
settled as soon as possible.

The Penitentiary Shoe Contract.

We were amazed to hear of
some members of the Legislature
talking about the renewal of the
old shoe contract with convicts in
the penitentiary. We hope the
Legislature will pass the law and
prepare the way so that the moment
this contract expires every avail
able convict, not only those in the
penitentiary, but those now on the
State Farm, shall be put to work
building the roads in Virginia that
are SO much needed and that will
add so much to the wealth and
taxable values of the State. Take
the convicts out of the penitentiary
and put them to work on the roads.
This old shoe contract, which eX!
pires, we believe, in 1913, has cost
and lost Virginia millions of dollars,
and put her away behind on the
road of progress.-Chase City
Progress.

To Increase Electric Power.

1t is expected that the contract
for the erection Of the new steam
auxiliary plant of the Winchester
and Washington City Railway
Company, TO bc operated in con
junction with the water-power
electrical plant near the Shenan-
doah river at MilIville, W. Va,
will be awarded within the next ten
days or two week.
\ large number of contractors
are figuring on the plans and speci-
tcations, and it is probable the
competition will be keen and
spirited. The work of erecting
the plant, which will be situated
above any high water mark of
record, will be started soon after
the awarding of the contract.
The building is to he constructed
of reinforced steel and concrete
and glass will be used for the sides.
1t will be absolutely fireproof, and
will cost nearly 100000, which
includes all equipment and machin-
cry. The plant will have 1900
horsepower capacity, which. with
5000 in the present water-power
plant, will bring the total up to
5000 horsepower. The new plant
will be operated only when there
is need for additional power, but il
will be kept in readiness all the
time.
The water-power plant has ar
abundant supply of water at pres
ent, there being about three fee
of water running over the dan
from one side to the other.

New State Paper Issued.

The Richmond Virginian, the

issued last Friday for the first time.
The opening sentence Of It's
salutatory was:
The Richmond Virginian is the
response to a demand for a paper
in Richmond of broad gauge. pro-
gressive spirit and high ideals. "
The general impression that the
new paper would be Statewide
Prohibition advocate. appears to
have been erroneous. for the pres
ent, at least, if we Judge by the
only reference to be found I'm the
first issue.
This Is what the Nirginian says:
The declaration that the Nir-
ginian will stand for moral progress
indicates its attitude toward the
liquor problem, which at this time
engages the thought of the people
of Virginia as never before.
While not the organ OF any organi-
zation, holding particular views as
to the settlement Of this question.

thy with the unselfsh and laudable
