VIRGINIA SENATORIAL RACE
Significant Signs of the Time.

On Friday night Senator Martin
in a widely advertised meeting in
Richmond. Va, had only 80 hearers,
according to The Times-Dispatch,
which Is supporting him.
On the same night In the sam
city (Richmond) Congressman Glass
had over 400 hearers, according to
same paper
Monday night Martins star meet
ing came off, and It was widely adj
yertised and special trains were run
from nearby cities. such a large
crowd was expected that IL was al
so advertised that Hal Flood would
be present to address the over
flow multitudes who would not be
able to get within hearing distance
of the Senator
But. sad and sorrowful TO state,
this same Martin paper reported
that the hearers present nearly
filled the house
There was no overflow meeting
and MIR. Flood still holds his briei'
unspOken and undelivered
Is not this significant?
There has not been citizen OF
this section representing us In the
United States Senate for many a
long year. We have much to ask
at the hands of the National Con
gress. We need and must have
increased river and harbor appropri-
ations If we are to keep the Rap
pahannnock river properly cleaned
out and nayigablc. Mr. Martin
has never had the appropriations
gotten by Mr.. Jones from the House
increased by the Senate. Bailey
did for Texas, Tillman did for South
Carolina, the Georgia and Florida
Senators did for their COMPRESSION
al districts containing rivers and
harbors. But not one cent increase
did Senator Martin get for this riv-
er.
Congressman Jones is loyal cit
izen of this section and while, OF
course. he will fairly and squarely
do just and equitable by the
whole State, yet il is fair to expect
that with him in the United States
Senate. as intimately associated and
identified with this section as he
is. he will be a better and more ei-
fectual friend to this section than
Senator Martin. He knows our
needs. he has been supplying them
without aid from Martin and he,
therefore. knows better how TO
get what we need.
Besides with him promoted 10 the
Senate, he will have TO be replaced
in Congress by another representa-
tive for this district, in which case
we viii have a Congressman ana
a Senator who knows our needs and
understand how to get them sup
piled. We will have two chances
where we have now only one. We
will be bound to reap benefits from
such an advantage.
Therefore, can a voter claim 10
be loyal to this section and this
district and then not vote for Mr..
Jones for United States Senator?
The only excuse for not voting for
him must be an excuse that Senator
Martin. as a manly man, would re-
lease the obligor from.
Every Democrat in the First Dis
trict and In Tidewater Virginia Is
making q costly and serious mis-
take when he votes 10 curtail the
representation of his district in Con-
gress. This is what you do by not
voting and working for Congressman
Jones to succeed Senator Martin
in the Senate.
BY voting Mr.. Jones to the Sen
ate you make way for two represen-
tatiyes in the L. S. Congress for
the district
