i DO IT IN EVERY COUNTY.

Tho Charlottesville Progress, edited
by one OF the most representative
members of the convention which
framed the present Constitution of
this Commonwealth, has been in the
forefront of the fight on the four pro-
rosed constitutional amendments.
1t has reflected the wisdom which
animated the Constitutional Con-
vention In enacting the very limita-
lions which these suggested changes
now seek to remove.
The Progress has put forth every
possible effort to arouse the people
as to the far-reaching effect these
changes, If they be approved by the
people at the polls In November. will
have. Through the efforts Of our con-
temporary. nass,meeting has been
called to meet in tho courthouse at
Charlottesville on Monday at the OPEN
Ing of the October term of court. Thcre
Will be several speakers who will dis
cuss The various phases of the ques.
tons and give the arguments for and
against the proposed amendments. The
attendance on this meeting will prob
ably include people from every part
of Albcmarls county. who are brought
into the city by the session of the
court. In this way, information and
enlightenment as to the suggested
amendments will be disseminated
throughout every part of the coun-
ty.
mass-mectng of this sort ought to
be held IN every County of Virginia
within the next three weeks. The peo-
pie have a right to be informed fully
as to these questions, the most i'm
rortant before the people of Virginia
to-day and we trust that the public
spirited citizens and the press in every
community will arrange for mass
meetings called to discuss these
changes IN our Fundamental law
Let every county in Virginia have
a mass meeting for this purpose.

sARAroGA,s AFTERMATH.

New natlonalism is old ambition
masquerading under different name,
and the long suffering, easily gulled,
foolish public is waking up to the
truth. At the bottom, Mr.. Roosevelt's
protestations against crooks, corrup-
ton and all the other stalking horses
he has used so long and ridden so well,
now reveal only overmastering am
bltion and the love of applause and
@potlights that no custom can stale
nor repetition satisfy.
The Republican State Convention is
over and done. Mr.. Stimson, an es-
Unable lawyer, nominated by Roose-
Welt, has been forced upon the party,
and the great victory of the Colonies
personal ascendancy has been achieved;
but the hardest battle lies ahead.
The people of this country. we are
sure, do not propose to stand for Mr..
Roosevelt's platform. however meekly
the Republican party of New York
may have accepted his lordship. Tho
people OF this country have not. and
will not. accept Mr.. Roosevelt's new
Socialism, which is, in essence, mag
MITIGATION of centralized bureaus. and
the destruction of the private citizen.
The people of this country will not
stand for his attack on the supreme
Court. or his acknowledged efforts to
turn the constitution into a personal
plaything. Nor can the Roosevelt OF
the West, with his demands for cam
paign publicity and refusal of cor
poration contribution. by any process
be made to square and tally with the
Roosevelt of the East. who refuse TO
attack the sugar trust, who buncoed
Hartman out of s25O,OOo. who white
washed Paul Morton, and fraternized
with Boss Cox.
Nor can President Taft escape a
large part of the odium that belongs
to this affair. He could have with
stood Roosevelt. had he been man
enough, he could have thrown him
self into the breach; he could have
kent his compact with his supporters.
But when the cry went up that Roose-
Welt, the popular idol. wanted the tenn
porary Craftsmanship. President TAFT
made haste TO help him.
Laying aside the morality OF his
action, and only looking at the plain
political fact, we see the President oil
the United states turning over to his
avowed, aggressive and remorseless
rival the full power of Federal Patron
age, in order that Mr.. Roosevelt nigh
be furnished with club that woul'
beat out the brains of all opposition
President Taft himself included.
Could big-hearted imbecility so fur
Their? Since from neither President
Taft nor Mr.. Roosevelt can the Ney
York public look for popular govern
ment, the only hope that New Yorl
will have is to turn to the Democrat
party and to clear ,she way for the re
establishment of.'popular government
in this country, and aid in the destruc
ton of dictatorship in New York, am
the defeat of Roosevelt in 1912.

While avators may utilize their

the less branch of science. It's aim
is to revolutlonize modes of trans

INSURGENTS IN THE FIFTH.

The first organization of Insurgent
Republicans in Virginia was consum-
mated in the Fifth district yesterday.
Delegates from four out of six of the
counties of that district met in formal
convention at Martinsville, adopted a
platform. and nominated j. b. Anglin
as the Insurgent nominee for Con-
gress.
This brings about three-cornered
congressional fight in the Fifth. On
the one side is Representative Saun-
ders. with the Democrats solidly be-
hind him; while on the Republican side
there is Parsons, the candidate of the
reactlonary and stand-pat wing. and
Anglin, the lnsurgent. This division
means nothing but good for Saunders,
for the rift within their own ranks
portends disaster to the Republicans.
A house divided against itself cannot
stand.

THE PROGRESS OF TIN. AUTO
MOBILE INDUSTRY

: 81
Much was heard month tago about
the resolve in some financial circles,
especially in the West to refuse loans
for the purpose of purchasing motor
cars. There have been runM,rs Of over
production and reports that at least
one automobile factory had Its money
so tied up in undue paper THAT 1t was
forced to sell portion OF its output
at a distinct discount
The automobile industry, neverthe-
less, seems to be holding It's own
Dealers in Kansas City hase stored Ave
thousand motor cars witch they will
supply TO the farmers of the South and
Southwest when crops have been sold.
This is said to be less than sixty per
| cent. of the cars that will be sold
in this particular section. Kansas
essentially an agricultural State now
owns automobiles to the value Of sI.,-
100000
A conservative estimate is that $780,
100000 Is invested in the automobile
industry Nearly 100000 persons are en-
ployed in the manufacture of auto
mobiles and accessories. About s27,-
100000 is paid for freight annually to
the railroad companies by the auto
mobile manufacturers. The yearly con-
sumption of steel iron, aluminium. and
rubber is valued at more than $780,
100000. 1t is said that, up to date, the
services of 100000 horses and wagons
have been dispensed with.
When these things are taken into
consideration. it seems unreasonable to
think that the industry is on the de-
cline or that the business is not a
/ sound one.

This is a healthful and satisfying

not come from the development of

rather from the congestion and. crowd
