Plan for Wilson to go Through
Valley

When Gov. Woodrow Wilson visits
Staunton-his birthplace-pext month
to attend mammouth celebration in
his honor, it is proposed, if possible,
to have him make one trip through the
Valley of Virginia, either on his way
to Staunton or on the return to New
Jersey. How it may be arranged to
have Governor Wilson take in the
Valley during his visit to Virginia is
now agitating the minds OF admirers
Of the next president from Stanton to
aarpers Ferry.
The president has let it be un-
derstood that there shall be nothing
in the way of political celebration
in connection with his visit to the
place of his nativity and that it is
purely question of settlement with
HIM that caused him to accept the
invitation. In coming South, the
Governor would naturally make the
trip by way of Washington and re-
turn through the capital city, so it
would not necessarily delay him to
make the journey by way of Manassas
or Harpers Ferry, and Harrisonburg
enroute to Staunton or to go this way
on his return.
Many hundreds and thousands of
Valley people will be in Stanton on
the big day to see and hear the Presi-
dent-elect. as all true Virginians are
anxious to give him memorable re-
|ception, but there are thousands of
others who would enjoy glimpse of
the next Chief Magistrate of the ma
t;oa on a trip through the Valley of
the Shenandoah.
The last and only visit OF a Presi-
dent of the United States to Harrison
burg or one who even made trip
through the Valley was when the
lamented President Mckinley took this
route in 1898 on his way from Hot
Springs to Washington. President
Mckinley stopped long enough for a
speech from the Court House steps. =
