la LESSON LEARNED
At HEAVY COST.
Trash Pile Cost WhitewrIght $500. 900,
Besides Damage to Health.

Whitewright taught other towns q
lesson-and paid for the teaching her
self. 1t was that trash piles allowed
| to accumulate about houses are moi
only an ugly, offensive eyesore, but
may be very expensive. Whitewright
paid 100000 for the privilege Of be
ling afraid to make a citizen keep his
premises decently clean and safe. For
lit amounts to just that in most small
towns. Officers are afraid to enforce
sanitary laws lest they offend some
neighbor, or set influences against
them in office or business. But the
entire city frequently has to pay for
such trucking fear, either in such a
disastrous fire loss as visited White
wright or in an epidemic of disease
directly brought on by insanitary con-
ditions.
Arlington is not entirely free from
both of these dangers just now. And
the Journal desires to commend the
prompt energy with which Mayor
Barnes personally visited the business
district warning all to clean up trash
piles and remove inflammable mate
rails Immediately. Now, let him follow
this by having the backwards of every
home inspected for fy-breeding and
disease-germ incubat-
ing and insanitary closets and trash
heaps and slop pools. That such are,
here is testified by the swarms of
flies that infest some homes where
scrupulous attention is paid to clean
Illness, and by the sickening odors
that float on the early morning and
quiet evening air. In such matters no
possible excuse should be made, nor
immunity permitted. People should
simply be compelled to keep their
premises clean and decent. And the
Journal and all good citizens will back
up Mayor Barnes in his move to see
that it is done.-Arlington Journal.

the noted artists of the world
The State Fair purchases annually
$500 worth of these pictures which

senate to endorse his position on the
tariff, Senator Bailey accused the pro

said the incident fully instructed him

response of the Delphi oracle, but it

A SERIOUS CHARGE

MIR. Jones made direct charge
against Mr.. Martin about yellow
dog fund, p" amounting to a charge of
bribery. If this charge is true MIR.
Martin ought to 90 and will 90. Mr..
Martin says, over his own signature,
that the charge is absolutely false
from beginning to end. If Mr.. Jones
cannot and does not prove his charge
then, he. Jones, will go, and ought to
go. 1t looks unreasonable that man,
such as MIR. Jones is reputed to be, and
as his friends know him to be, could
make such charge unless he knew
his ground, and equally unreasonable
that such a man as Senator Martin
has been known to be for years, would
be bad enough or unwise enough to
get mixed up in such an affair as
the distribution of corrupt bribery
fund. Turn on the light.

Editor Of The virginian

Editor OF The Virginian:
Sir: First. Because they are men
of high character and are making a
great sacrifice both in time and
money in valiant fight now waging
for the betterment of political
conditions in old Virginia.
Second. Because they are brave
enough to hew to the line, let the
chips fall where they may, in giving
to the public such rotten political
facts as infest the body polite to-
day.
Third. Because they are not, in
my humble opinion. making altogeth-
er selfish fight. they both being in
congress at the present time, the
salaries of a congressman and senator
being indentically the same. In all
probability they could stay in congress
as long as they chose, hence the
matter shows up in far different
light in their making the fight than
it would for men who held no office
at all.
Fourth. Because they have always
voted dry and MIR. Glass fought the
liquor evil, both by his speeches and
with his papers, thereby protecting
the helpless women and children OF
our land as for as he could in tina
respect.
Fifth. Because they are exposing
political bossism and denouncing il
severely on the hastings from one enc
of the State to the other, showing ouI
utter servility in matters politicnl.
Sixth. Because we need to support
men who have the courage of thei
convictions and who are willing t,
make the necessary sacrifices (ant
they are many in bringing facts be
fore the people of Virginia that they
ought to know, and can only know
from men who are in position Ga!
these gentlemenare) to give such fact.
Seventh. Because they are fighting
for principles that should interes
most earnestly every lover of liberty
pure politics. and all things that tenc
to lift us up to higher standard Of
civilization. Virginian
