WOMEN MAKE PROTEST
Martin, Swanson and Carlin Oppose
Convict Camp Near Mt. Vernon.

Headed by Senators Martin and
Swanson and Representative Carlin
OF Virginia. a delegation of the
Mount Vernon Ladies' Associa-
tion called on the District Commits
sioners in Washington Wednesday
and strongly protested against the
erection of a reformatory by the
District of Columbia near Mt. Yer
non. No objection to the construe-
tion OF the institution in any part
of Virginia was raised, and the del
egation assured the commissioners
that It would do all in its power TO
find suitable place for the reform
atory, should the District officials
30 desire.
Mount Vernon is the most his
torical spot in all Virginia" said
Senator Martin in voieing his pro-
test. These ladies. who have call
ed on you have rebuilt that famous
old place without an appropriation.
They have raised various amounts
to preserve and beautify the great
est OF all American patriotic insti-
tutions."
"The erection of a reformatory
near Mount Vernon would greatly
injure not only Mount Vernon. but
that entire section of the great
State OF Virginia. which is most
historical" said Senator Swan
son. "Three-fourths OF the persons
visiting Mt. Vernon in a year are
ladies'. and they go there unescort-
ed. Would any man want his wife
or daughter to pass convict camp
on her way to Mount Vernon?
do not think so.
These women have been accused
OF making a dime museum out OF
Mount Vernon" remarked Rep
resentative Carlin. THAT is un-
just. They have no appropriation
and every cent which is paid in at
the gate goes toward the support OF
that historical spot. Mount Vernon
Is national institution. | strong

More sensations are expected if the

Kline will testify that she was offered

Schenks, is expected to testify that
he heard Mrs. Schenk offer Miss Kline

to testify that Mrs. Schenk offered him
a bride of $1,000 to take Mr.. Schenk
out automobillng and run him over a
steep hill in the machine in an effort

PRIMARY ELECTION LAW
CONSTITUTIONAL.

The decision of the court OF ap..
peals upon the appealsin the Norfolk
primary cases is most gratifying to
the people of Virginia. 1t not only
nullifies any supposed necessity for an
extra session Of the Legislature. and
the attendant expenses for the pur-
pose of enacting a primary law. but
it forever sets at rest all conflict Oh
opinion as to the constitutiOnallty Of
the present statute, so far as 1t
relates to fraudulent practices IN
primary elections, and puts those
who conduct such elections on notice
that the present law is sufficient to
reach transgreSsors in this respect
and meet out to them adequate
punishment.
We have never had any doubt as
to the termination of the controver-
sy, once it reached the Court of APP
peals for decision, and the court has
acted wisely in departing from It's
usual custom, in refusing writ Of
error. in stating at length its reasons
for so doing and passing upon collat-
eral questions, which are the sub
ject of controversy.
This decision will be a wholesome
check upon primary election frauds
and it is to be hoped that the trans
gressors in Norfolk will be rein
dicted and tried, as the courts Opln-
ion says they may be.

1t is hardly fair to compare the ex-

Of Governor Swanson and Governor
Mann, as some of the newspapers OF
the State are doing. with those OF
previous administrations to the dis
paragement of the former. The
people Of Virginia have nothing to
growl about on account Of any very
great extravaganza under the ad-
ministration of any Governor We can
recall, but if expenses have increased
under the two most recent admins
trations, the people have received a
most substantial quid proquo. 1t
was under Governor Swanson's ad-
ministration that the great strides
we have made in public education
and educational facilities, permanent
public road building and improve
ment were inaugurated, and Cover
nor Mann has carried forward. with
the aid of the Legislature, these much
to be desired and much needed i'm
provements. We know of no one
who has the interest of the State at
heart who desires to take any back
ward step in regard to them. If it
is necessary to raise more revenue
to carry forward this great work,
means mnst be devised to do so. In
our opinion, the present cry of ex-
travagance has but little foundation
in fact.
