10 this, the stockholders authorized
the increase of the authorized capital
stock of the company from $4,000 to
$500 600. This will require an amend

and steps were taken to secure this.
1t was learned this morning that an
effort is being made to move the plant
TO Roanoke, and II is expected that
an offer will be made to the company
to purchase an idle plant near that
city for that purpose. While the com

TRUTH DEMANDED
AS TO PULP WOOD
Consul at Quebec Is Accused of
SURPRISING Important
Data.

New York December t3.--The paper
committee OF the American News
paper Publishers Association, has
sent letter to the government tariff
board, pointing out that the United
States consul at Quebec. in reporting
upon available pulp wood supply for
American paper mills from private
forests in Quebec, has suppressed data
that had been furnished to the consul
by the highest official authority in
that province and that the consul has
,uisrepresented the situation" The
consuls report said that the recent
prohibitions will not have the effect
OF reducing the quantity OF pulp wood
for export for some years to come, and
perhaps never" implying that all the
present needs of the American market
viz. 100000 cords of pulp wood per
annun, cauld be obtained from private
forests, but according to the commit
toe, the suppressed data from official
sources showed that only 100000 cords
per annum would, under present re-
strictions be available for the Amer
lean market.
The letter charges that an area Of
10000 square miles of public forests
has been withdrawn as source of
supply. and that the private forests
now available measure approximately
$500 square miles, or one-tWentieth of
The total forest area; further that half
the private forests are in hardwoods,
not spruce; that nine tenths of the
private forest areas have been ruth

some OF the guesses which have been

Two or three men who arc mem
bers of the present Legislature have
been mentioned. However. it is evil
dent that their appointment would be
unconstitutional. Section 40 of the

EXAMINING TITLE
FOR RIFLE RANGE

Accidents.

Selected for Assistant
Acknowledgement.
APPOINTMENT NOT MADE

Examination of the title to the land
sought to be conveyed to the state Tor
a permanent rifle range and camp site
near Virginia Beach is being prose
cuted. Major S, Heth Tyler OF NOR
.olls has been designated by Attorney
General Samuel w Williams as local
attorney to make an abstract OIL the
title and to look into all of the lesal
points involved.
1t is understood that one of the iea-
lures of the proposition Is some prop
srty located between the camp site ana
the ocean. This was formerly STRIP
of land cut into building lots. and the
tight to shoot over it into the water
is a part of the deal. However, there
Is a street through this strip along the
beach, over which the public has
right of way, and should any one be
injured by flying bullets there might
be liability on the state.
Will DC Adjusted.
It is believed, though that this
feature will be duly adjusted so as
to prevent any possibility of harm to
any person, a natural sand dune
exists on the end of the camp site
nearest the water, and it is proposed
by the State Military Board to build
this to a much higher point, so that
no bullets fired at rifle practice can
ever strike anything save "old oceans
gray and melancholy waste.
The State pays nothing whatever FOR
this property, It's cost having been sub
scribed by citizens OF Norfolk and the
vicinity. The Norfolk Southern pro-
poses to extend it's line to the site. OF
course, it will be necessary for the
state to spend a large amount OF
money in equipping the property, this
coming from an appropriation made by
4 the War Department for the purpose.

cities. or, as 1t is now more broadly
known, "the short ballot principle.
State Librarian II. r. McIlwaine has
prepared a reference list of publicu-

The short ballot principle is: First,
that only those Offices should be cleo
tive which are important enough to
attract tand deserve) public examina
ton; second that very few offices
should be filled by election at one
time, so as to permit adequate and
unconfused public examination of the
candidates.

principles explains the comparative

foreign democracies, as well as in Gal
