Dust and Sore Throat

Doctors say the prevalence of sore
threats this Spring is due to the dry sea-
son, and the unusual amount of dust in
the air. Nothing irritates the delicate
passages of the throat more than dust
particles.-often laden with germs of
disease. Many persons ward off sickness
and troublesome sore threats by the
prompt use of Toietipes the we'll known
remedy for relieving Inflammation swell
ing or irritation of the throat. Toietine
may be taken internally or used exter-
nally and affords quick relief. For brown
tail and suhburn 1t Is excellent.

The Home Paper

The esteemed Eastern Shore Her
aid calls to our attention the fact
that the South Hill! Enterprise has
ceased publication. After five years
of excellent achievement in its field,
it is to be moved to North Carolina,
step which would not be taken, we
feel sure, unless absolute necessity
demanded it, for there are many who
believe that only the legal excuses of
an act of God or the public enemy
can justify removal TO that com
munity. The Enterprise will be miss ..
ed and its departure will be generally
regretted by the Virginia press.
With the Enterprise gone and the
Wise News and the Abingdon Virgin
ina suspended because of lack of
local support-there is afforded the
unwelcome suggestion that something
must be wrong with the public spirit
of the people in some of our counties.
AS the Herald says:
''What is the matter with the peo-
pie in those localities that they
should let such things be done? The
local paper should hc q thing of local
pride in which ali good citizens
should gladly contribute the mite that
is expected of them. A citizen should
be ashamed to let it go out that he
does not take the home paper. -
1t is indeed Il reflection on the peo-
pie of any county and community
when they fail to back with all their
might the local newspaper, which
gives local news which larger papers
cannot possibly give and informs the
outside world of the progress and
prosperity of the locality in which
the paper is published When the To-
cal paper is not supported, there is
unquestionably absent in the commu-
ity and that spirit which makes COM
munities thrive and swells villages
INTO towns and towns into cities.
Public spirit ought to be behind the
local press, for the local newspaper
IS the chief and, often, the sole adj
N' VI VIC coIhinunluy IN
which it is published. ANY man who
has the courage and the energy and
the constructive purpose to start a
local newspaper ought to have at
least the loyalty and the material as
sistance of the people in the midst of
whom he lives and works for a mere
pittance.

A Fair Warming

Looking at Ohio, where the bribery
of the last election is being unearth-
ed and punished, we can realize how
it looks, the deep disgrace it put on
State and people. We want Virginia
men to look at this shame and to be
ashamed of what some of them have
been doing. We want them to feel
that the man who sells his vote sells
his manhood and the liberty his fore
fathers fought to win for him, is
simply male prostitute and a traitor
to his State and people. Then we
want all of them to join with us in
demanding of the next Legislature
laws so stringent and searching that
bribery in Virginia will be impossible
and the good strong poor man may
have chance for honorable Office.
Sine oof the railroads are conducting
"back home" movement, trying to
bring back the Virginians who have
gone to other States. We are in SYM
pathy with it thoroughly. We want
to see also, however, conditions so
that while the eXiles are coming
back, the socalled men who are will
ing or anxious to sell their votes and
rights and manhood shall be forced 10 !
get out of Virginia and stay out. /
The less of that kind of cattle we
have the better the old State will be.
