seeing that his friends. followers and
supporters are pursuing that prize for
him with all tho ardor of insurgents
and all the wisdom of Wall Street?
When his celebrated declaration of
intention not to run appeared in the
Philadelphia North American, this
paper noted that the doughty Colonel
was content to affirm that he was not
t!en seeking the nomination. and to de-
clare that. to charge him with such a
purpose was both unfriendly and un-
true. But he did not say, IT will not
accept IL nominated" His destinations
took the ecclesiastical form. Like the
bishop to be. he must thrice declare.
"nolo cpiscopari," II do not wish to
be bishop only at the end to be
invested with the nitro and crozier.
This pretty drama OF maiden coyness
would have continued und!sturbcd but
for the rude handed interference OF
PRESIDENT Taft who called together
the National Committee of the Rcpub-
lican party. This assembling of the
chieftains drew the lines, and the Col
onel's friends were forced 10 drop
their thin pretcnse and come OUT in
me open. That is why the press re-
ports from Washington Yesterday
bristled with Roosevelt news The
struggle for the nomination is ON. and
with Roosevelt in the field that
struggle Will not be settled until The
day after the election in November.

To the Editor of The Times Dispatch:
eir,-Wc who thoroughly believe in
me aaoptio. OF a constitutional amend
ment calling for the recall, includin.,
the Judiciary. OF course, were surnris
ed to see quoted from your paper an
uuitorihl comment on the recall based
upon the alleged attempt to recall
Judge Coke, of Rosenberg, Ore. aud
leaving the Impression that these pro
ccedings were still In effect The on
position TO the recall of Judges has
neen very active in giving the first
word of this matter, but very little
of tho rest. because Of the fact that
In this Coke instance the citizens OF
Oregon surely amply demonstrated that
they had the intelligence and character
to rule thems selves, and In the end the
Coke recall became one of the best
arguments yet advanced for the re-
call. because the people, not believing
that tho Judge had acted with improper
motives, refused to recall him. 1t de-
gument for instance, that you bring
up in your editorial. I cali to your
attention clipping from the Daily
News, of Grand Judction, Col. II Re-
publican newspaper. which contains n
history OF this Coke case. A better
understanding of 1t may prevent you
from placing yourself in an untenablc
position: The state Of COLORADO win
n to / vote. as they did the initia-
tive and referendum year ago. IN
Colorado we have no fear but that our
people are amply capable of ruling
themselves. and ] have no doubt but
that the people OF Virginia are as well
equipped TO do this as the people or
Colorado. Wisconsin. oregon. Maine or
California. IT would hardly seem Dos
sible that this peculiarly American
trait had been overlooked in the pccu-
liarly American state OF Virginia.

A LONG STEP TOWARD BETTER
GOVERNMENTS.

A substantial and gratifying victory
was secured last night III tho action
OF the Board of Aldermen in passing
by decisive vote the ordinance redis-
tricting the city into four wards. That
was tho most important issue before
the Board OF Aldermen, and it was
passed easily and quickly. by that
action, the City Council is reduced
by half, and the individual response
hility OF both Common Councilman and
Aldermen Is vastly Increased and cni-
cheney is made more necessary.
With the IIrschberg amendment at
t.tchcd, the administrative board prop
osition failed to pass tic Board al
though the striking vote OF 10 10 :,
on the ordinance rs amended by,Strik-
sng out the Hirschberg amendment,
shows plainly that the Board is In
favor of an administrative board as
part OF the city government OF
Richmond The details OF such a board
MS will be satisfactory to both branches
OF tho City Council can now be worked
out by the two bodies acting together
for the best interest Of the city. The
Times Dispatch had feared ill along
that the Hirschberg amendment would
have .he effect OF causing the defeat
of the whole plan in the Board of Al
dermen, but that body wisely and sa-
saciously avoided the difficulty by
passing quickly the first proposition
the four ward plan-which majority
clearly favored. The details OF the
administrative board arc now open to
discussion and settlement in both
bodies
AS to the formation OF the admin
istrative board the Times Dispatch
calls attention to the fact that in no
city in which the commission form
of government is used are the Fire.
Health and Police Boards better adj
ministered than In Richmond There
foe, there is really nothing to he
gained at present by the inclusion of
these departments under the iurisdic-
tio' of the administrative board, save
= lacrc barren compliance with theory.
III" administrative board en- first de-
Nsiop other departments. and the Fire
and Police Departments can be later
put under 1t. In other cities all the
departments are combined under the
administrative boards. and 1t is to be
b ped that Richmond Will come TO
such a result with great rapidity.
The victory Is SO gratifying and the
prospect for improved city govern
ment so near and so bright that The
Tines Dispatch hopes and urges that
The Common Council Will meet The
Board of Aldermen In spirit which
VIII mako the plan for q better form
OF government effective at the earliest
possible date. A meeting OF the Com
mon Council will be called shortly. and

Saturday, Oct. 18th, Wake Forest
played it's third game Of foot ball
upon the home gridiron. Of the
games played Wake Forest has lost

Oct. 7th. With this beginning foot
ball will reach q standard and per-
centage that has never been achiev-
ed before in the history of the col
lege.
The game Of last Saturday result
ed in the ignomenious defeat of the
spirited team from Roanoke College,
Va. From the kick off it was evil
dent that the visitors would not
have look in. Touchdowns were
made at intervals Of 5 and 10 min
utes. the first coming within three
minutes after the ball was put in
play, which was due to skillful and
spectular forward pass and a Is I'd
gain by Utley through center. At
no stage Of the game was Roanoke
looked upon as dangerous. Several
beautiful end runs, varying from u
to 10 yds, were made by Singleterry
for Wake Forest.
During the entire game many
beautiful forward passes were adj
ministered by Utley and Joyner
The line all showed up in fine form,
opening up holes whenever needed
1t would be hard to designate
any one as particular star, though
it was pretty well agreed upon that
the honors belong to Singleterry for
Wake Forest, he making three OF
the nine touchdowns himself. Saw.

ing the line for material gains.
Utley kicked 6 out of thee chances
for gold thereby ending game by
score So to 0 in favor of Wake Forest
Next Saturday the Wake Forest
team goes up against the strong
husky bunch" from Washington
and Lee.
