In fighting to keep the blood pure
the white corpuscles attack disease
germs like tigers. But often germs
multiply so fast the little fighters are
overcome. Then see pimples, boils,
eczema, saltrheum and sores multiply
and strength and appetite fail. This
condition demands Electric Bitters to
regulate stomach, liver and kidneys
and to expel poisons from the blood.

ALLAN

That the efficiency of the mail ser
vice with particular regard 10 the
rural free delivery in and about Rich
mond has not been affected by Post
masler-oSeneral Hitcncock's economy
Was the statement made Friday by
Postmaster Edgar Allan, Jr., who de-
Gsared> that the mail service in this
city has been developed and it's eff
cheney increased since the head of the
postofiice depa has been cutting
down expenses to wipe out the postal
deficit.
Reports from various sections Of
the country state that the postal SER
vice. especially the rural free de-
livery and star routes. have greatly
decreased in efficiency because OF the
economy plans OF Mr.. Hitchcock but
Postmaster Allan Is emphatic in hts
assertion that the so-called "penur-
iousness" of the postoffice department
has not been felt here
1t has also been asserted that
trouble has recently been experienced
in the railway mail service, that there
are not enough clerks 10 perform the
work properly and that the-clnries are
overworked. 1t has been futher stat
ed that mail bought To this city has
been carried away again because II
Was not In the proper condition 10 be
put off in Richmond for delivery and
that sometimes mail is delayed for a
day or more on this account
These assertions are not correct
according to Mr. Alfan. "Of course
there are times when there is "a rush
OF mail, especially near the fret of
each month when great quantity Of
bills are being zen. Through the
mails" he said, but we have always
been able to handle IT."

Increase within the next decade. The
material assessment figures announced
show that Virginia. although primarily
an agricultural state, holds within the
bosom of her soil millions of known
quantities of coal and ores which are
almost inexhaustible.
The fact that thirty-iye counties In
the State failed to pay in ms much In
taxes as they drew from the treasury
while lamentable. does not carry much
significance because the generally pros
porous condition OF the State in it's IN
tirety proves the ability of the remain

burden and increase the progressive
ness of the Commonwealth The def
cts OF the thirty Ave counties We're not
large, one running as low as SIT, In
most instances the shortage Mas due 10
unusual criminal or other simular ex-
penses. a change in the date for taxes
TO be collected would have remedied
tho situation and made At unnecessary
for these counties to cali upon the COM
mon treasury.
White the inequalities OF the assess
ments make II difficult to strike an
average. valuation of the various" pro-
perties listed on the assessment sheets.
the figures provided by the auditor
show that land and live stock in Viz
ginia are paying propositions which
grow more valuable each year. An In
stance of the inequality Of assessment
Is shown by the fact that horses in
Richmond are valued at $101 each,
while those in Taxeweli are held to
be worth but $33. This last named es-
TINA Ia IL for assessment purposes only.
In Norfolk and Roanoke horses are
valued at $50 and SIS respectively.
1t Is reasonable to assume after
studying the tables of assessments and
noting the glaring inequalities that IL
the State had law to rigidly enforce
correct assessments the increase in var
fous kinds of property and possessions
would be twice the amounts shown In
the report by the auditor.

More or less controversy has long

where equal work is done, but If the

The lack Of prodigious growth in
the group Of western states during the
last decade, as shown by the census
figures on manufactures, is exciting
comment and one exchange observes
that while our progress in this line
has been great, It has not been remark
able. No, that is true Yet thirteen
OF these states, Nebraska, Kansas.
North Dakota. South Dakota. Wyom-
ing, Idaho, Missouri, Indiana. Iowa,
Oklahoma. Utah, New Mexico and
Arizona, produce one-tenth of the ma
tional output of manufactured articles.
Net a bad showing. particularly when
considered in connection with the
amazing development OF these same
states in agriculture and horticulture.
Even in manufacturing, thcs have
about come up TO par and In the other
pursuits they have gone 80 far ahead
OF par that It is scarcely worth while
'eotering into the details OF the case.
Tho vital point to be noticed here
is that most II not all of these states
are pre-eminently farming states. 1t
Is in this line that these states must
be judged II their real progress and
development is to be determined They
are going ahead so rapidly, especially
those west Of the Missouri river, in the
great work of empire building that II
would tax the resources Of the census
department to reflect one year any
thing like an accurate index Of the
next years activities.
It will be time enough to talk OF
industrial development after most Of
these states have attained something
nearer normal growth in thelr natural
lines, but he would be a shOrt-ranged
prophet who did not see ia the near
future the building up of gigantic in
Glstrial centers in all of these states.
Their natural resources when properly
exploited will bring that about

The slightest turn sometimes
changes completely the aspect of the
political Kaleidoscope. This may be
the result Of the death of the late
Lieutenant Governor Hopewell. for
the talk is already started in behalf
OF Lieutenant Governor Morehead for
first place on the democratic state
ticket next year. The fact that he
will occupy the ONCE next below that
of governor for a year and eight
months, and will probably be acting
governor for some Of that time, il
taken TO point him out as the logical
man for the democrats to take up.
This is certainly an interesting con-
tributlon to the early crop Of political
gossip, and democrats with guberna-
torial bees In their bonnets will do
well to keep weather eye on the
new lieutenant governor.
