Bryde Line Now Operating
Four Steamers.

oermany-Marine News.

Four steamers-two, carrying both
freight and passengers and two car
rylng freight only--are now being OPP
Grated between Norway and sweden
and Newport News and tropical ports
by the Norway-Mexico Gulf Line. the
two freight steamers, the Dronnins
Olga and Nordkyn, are now enroute
for his port with a total OF about
:. 200 tons of import freight for ship
ment to the West. The Nordsyn is
due today and the Drowning Olga VIII
get in next week from Gotthenburg
Sweden.
Since II made Newport Nsws its
port of call i'm the United States a
little more than year ago, the Nor
way Mexico Gulf Lines business has
increased considerably. The line
started out with monthly sailings, tn
Texas and Noruega being operated on
the line. Later the Drowning Olga
was added to the fleet. and now a
fourth vessel has been added. giving
the line semi-monthly sailings, instead
of monthly sailings-
Business Steadily Growing.
The business OF the company is
steadily growing and the indications
are that additional steamers will have
TO be operated in The not tar distant
future. The passenger steamers bring
a number OF passengers TO this port
and it frequently happens that passen-
gers are turned away on the otner
side. The Norwegian government Is
interested in sending immigrants 70
this country over this line and there
is bright prospect for a steady in
crease in the flow OF Immigrants
through this port from Norway.
This line is one of ths' most valu-
able plying out of this port and the
indications are that it will become
one of the biggest operating here.
Newport News is the only port In Vir-
ginia where immigrants are received
direct from Europe and the State de-
partment of agriculture and immigra-
ton Is doing what it can to assist In
bringing the NorwegIans here to set
tie the unoccupied farm lands in the
Old Dominion.

Following the announcement from
Richmond Thursday evening that the
amendment TO the State constitution
allowing treasurer and commissioners
OF the revenue In the cities TO succeed
themselves in Office was defeated IN
the election November s, several well
known Democrats OF this city are SAID
to have announced their intention OF
running for the Office OF CITY treasurer
to succeed James NJ. Curtis, whose
term OF office expires on December
81. 1918. This Office carries with II

port News and the fight for II un'
doubtedly will be one of the most
spirited ever pulled of here.
Commissioner of the Revenue Is.
W. Crump will be candidate TO sue
coed himself In 1919. Mr.. Crump was
appointed to his Office by Judge Bar
ham last year and. under a ruling or
the attorney-gsneral of virginia. he is
eligible to succeed himself for one
term. Mr.. Crump has been commits
sioner of the revenue for ten years
and he began his present term on
January /. 1910.
TRY To Have Law Reenacted.
In all probability the commission
ers of the revenue in the cities will
endeavor to have the next legislature
reenact the statute giving the judges
of the Corporation Courts the power
10 appoint the commissioners. Such
an act was passed several years ago
and all of the present commissioners
are serving under appointments by The
Judges of the Corporation Courts. At
its last session the state Legislature
decided to repeal the law and allow
the people to vote on the question or
whether or not the commissioners
could succeed themselves in Office.
The legislature meets again before
the present terms of the commission
ers expire and the law can be reen-
acted. However, some of the Demo-
cratic leaders here yesterday ex-
pressed grave doubt that the iegisla-
ture would be willing TO enact the law
after the people had voted not to al
low the commissioners to succeed
themselves in Office.
Simon Curtis Eligible.
While the treasurers in the cities
cannot succeed themselves, the treds-
urers and commissioners in the coun-
ties can succeed themselves to office
and hence Simon Curtis, treasurer OF
Warwick county. probably will be re-
elected IN 1913.
One of the men who will be a can
didate for the Office of city treasurer
three years hence said yesterday that
he believes that theF time is not far
distant when the legislature will abol-
ish the feet system in Virginia and

'ers. commissioners Of the revenue,
clerks Of coprtss and city sergeants
and sheriffs will be placed on sal

being made on the present fee sys-

be abolished in six or eight years

The Rise in Mountain Tops.

"Corney Vanderbilt and Bob Collier
have ordered Wright aeroplanes," said
too familiarly perhaps a flying
man to a reporter. "They are both,
I understand, negotiating, too, for
high mountain tops to build CASTLE
like houses upon. Mountain tops, al
ready high, are going up. I'll tell
you why.
"But, first, did you ever climb to
the top of a high mountain? How
pure and cool the air is up there!
Below. for hundreds of miles, spreads
the country, here in shadow, there in
glittering sunshine. You see, perha ps,
other mountains, cities, even the far
off sea- Those splendid views, that
pure air, they uplift the heart like
music. II you could live on noun
tain top-if the windows of your
house could but frame such lovely
scenes!
"That, of course, was impossible a
few years ago: 1t Is still impossible to-
day: a mountain top is too difficult
Of access. But when flying is quite
perfected. then the rich business man,
instead Of living in stuffy town apart
ments, will have his luxurious castle
six or seven thousand feet up In the
air, and he will fly to and from 1t in
his monoplane or biplane, and from
every wir dow he will gaze on views
that will teach him. perhaps. the fol-
" of making business q religion"
