A GRATIFYING ACTION.

II is gratifying to note that the
Democratic majority in the State
senate has partially rectified the mis-
take that was made when the caucus
refused to adopt the Gravatt resolu-
ton providing for Republican repre-
sentation on certain committees. The
rules committee. with the sanction
of the Democratic senators has en-
Iarged the finance committee by one
member. and the vacant seat is to be
given to Senator Lincoln, one OF the
leading Republicans in the State In
doing this, the senate has corrected
a mistake that was calculated TO in
lure the Democratic party far more
than the Republicans, whom II de-
prived OF representation. The action
will crafty the state at large. and It
is 10 be hoped that il is a step toward
the end proposed by Mr.. Gravatt-
This paper believes the minority Is
entitled to a voice in the proceedings
Of all of the more important commit
tees. in spite OF the fact that the
Democrats, responsible as they are to
the people for the government. must
in the end act as they deem wise and
proper in the matter of legislation.

THE PROPOSED NEW SUMNER
NORMAL SCHOOL.

The city council and thc puuH'
generally can we'll afford to lend
cordial support to the movement
which has been inaugurated LOOKING
toward. the establishment of State
GUNNER normal school In Newport
News. The movements Is well under
way; il has the endoI sement of the
business men. and the school board
and pnhlic school officials have under
taken the task of directing 1t. Az
the situation was explained to the
Chamber of Commerce, ii appears
that the principal problem confront
ing the promoters of this project Is
the raising of $500, which amount Will
be needed to defray local expenses III
connection with the normal. II THIS
amount IL secured. il is believed that
other details can be arranged with
little or no difficulty and the opening
of the school will be almost a GER
tainty.
There ought TO be no doubt about
the raising of this fund. In the first
place. il would be well worth that
amount to have the normal here IN
Newport News, giving all the teach
ers OF Newport News, Hampton and
vicinity an opportunity 10 take ad-
vantage of the summer course with
our the nece ssity of mourning the ex-
pense incident to leaving home and
going elsewhere for the purpose
There is another reason-one tha'
should appeal to everybody from a
purely business standpoi2t-and that
is. il will put money in Newport
News pockets to bring several nun
dred people here to live for a month
or more each summer.
AS this paper understands Il. the
public school buildings are used for
these summer normals and the in
structors are provided by the state
The cities in which the normals are
held are pu; to no expense other than
that incident 20 receiving and enter

visitors will pay their own way. and

b. some two hundred 10 three hundred
and fifty people looking for board al
the hotels and boarding houses.
Superintendent OF School jenkins
has adv'sed the board that a; the
opening Of the normal there should
be about two hundred in attendance
and that when the institution Is vel
established and known. this numte1
should be increased to three OF fouI
hundred. Il viii b. desirable gather

subject, from the arena OF political
contention and strife. This is re-
suit greatly to be desired. Besides,
Justice and fairness demand that the
Federal government should not only
have the power, but should also col
iect a large part CT its revenues by
a fair tax upon incomes. The eX-
penditnres OF the Federal government
are rapidly increasing each year. At
present most of its vast revenue h
collected by tax upon ccnsumptlod
thus the people are taxed on what
they need, not on what they possess.
4 fair system Of taxation should be
based on the abundance of the peo-
pie and not on their necessities. A
tax upon consumption works to the
great disadvantage of the masses OF
the people who are made to bear m
unfair part Of the burden OF taxation.
The present greatly increased cost
of living in Almost every direction
bears uLmistakable TESTIMONY to the
evil effects accruing from placing
upCn consumption the very heavy bur
uens of Federal taxation. A fair tax
upon incomes makes the government
share IN the prosperity OF its cfti-
zens.

The Federal government has long
needed system of taxation IKE this

ness arrangements of the world pos

No substantial reason exists why
our government should be Teprived
of the power of imposing .1x so just
and so fair. II must be presumed
that the Federal government in the
exercise of this power will be reas-

for the rights and best interests of
