VOTE FOR AMENDMEN ..

The esteemed Staunton Leaoer very
clearly sets forth as follows, why VIZ
..;nia voters should cast their ballots

amendments that will be submi1'ec
to the people in the November cleo
tion:
"Voters should not lose sight OF the
fact tl!at at the November election
they will have the privilege of voting
on two proposed amendments TO Vle
State Constitution. One proposes 10
give to cities the privilege OF having
commission form of government
if they vote for it and the LeglSia-
tare grants permission. This is rsas-
enable request of the cities. Il i
in response of the effort to provide
a more efficient form Of government
than we now have. No voter can
offer a reasonable objection to this
amendment. The plan was not en-
bodied in the Constitution when il
was written in 1902 because commits
sion government was comparative
" new thing at that tine, and had rot
impressed itself on the gentlemen who
prepared the article OF the Consti-
;ition providing for the government

Of cities. We have no doubt these
gentlemen themselves, or all VINO are
now living, will cheerfully vote Tor
this amendment.
aThe other proposed amendment is
equally as reasonable. 1t proposes
that the provision forbiddlng the re-
election of treasurers and commits
sioners of the revenue of cities be
repealed, so that these official may
be reelected if the people want them.
II the people do not want them they
can refuse to re-elecc them. Ger
tainly the people ought to have the
privilege of re-electing them if they
wish to do so. As the Constitution
now stands, it discriminates against
city treasurers, for the latter may be
reelected while the former may not.
Surely there is no reason for brand
ing as unworthy Of further trust the
gentlemen who hold these offices in
the cities at the present time"

THE COUNTRY REJOICES.

The American people, no matter
how bitter they feel against the poli:-
ical activities of the leader OF the
third party, rejoice today because Of
the fact that Theodore Roosevelt lives
and is out of danger from the assas-
sins bullet which struck him last
nigth in Milwaukee. Mr.. Roosevelt,
despite many of his eccentricities, IS
one Of Americas greatest men and
we can i'll afford to lose him. Added
to the fact that he occupied the pres
idential chair for two terms winch
places him in an exalted position be-
fore the world, is his striking perso-
nality which has given him, perhaps,
the largest following Of any Amer
lean.
We not only rejoice that Roosevelt
has been spared but that our country
is saved from the disgrace of another
murder of one of our highest officials.
The ASSASSIN has no place IL the
statute nor sentiment sanctions the
American Commonwealth. Neither
adjustment of a grievance with the
pistol. The murderer receives shcrt
shrift. and the man whose disordefed
intellect impe!s him to attempt the
life of an individual engaged in a work
oe public service in the belief tha: ne
is promoting some common goca can
expect no mercy from the law Or out
ragged public opinion.
The assassin of President Mchin-
lev is still fresh in the public mind:
and no less bitter would have beah
the nations grief and no less keen
the sense of loss had Roosevelt SIM
larlv followed the man who was once
his chief. As it is, Roosevelt 'ucN
still holds good, and the people en-
cerely congratulate him on his foEs"-
nate escape while. execrating the aaha
that was raised against him.
