MGADOO ON THE VIRGINIA MACHINE.

The following taken from letter il
the Lynchburg News sent out from
Baltimore during the progress of tn
democratic national convention, is illu
as to the opinion held by out
siders of political conditions in Virginia
1t will be we'll to bear in mind that Mr.
McAdoo and the paper publishing hi
remarks are both democratic, and tn
criticism aimed at the machine in thi
state is, therefore, from within its ow
ranks:
William G. McAdoo, the New
York tunnel builder, said today that
Virginia was state hedged about
by ring rule and dominated by po-
litical bossism- Mr.. McAdoo was
interviewed at his private apart
ments in the Hotel Emerson. He
expressed emphatic confidence that
Wilson would win.
''As to your state of Virginia,
said the New York capitalist, 81
am afraid she labors under similar
disadvantages to those which obtain
in Tennessee. My father was a
Tennesseean and am familiar with
the situation there. l was also a
visitor to your recent state demo-
cratic convention held at Norfolk,
where received a second liberal
education in crooked politics.
my purpose in linking Virginia
and Tennessee together is for the
reason that the will of the people in
each state is not being represented
by the delegations sent by them to
Baltimore. In Virginia, if l am
correctly informed, the sentiment
of the counties was first throttled
at the county conventions, which
sent to the state convention at Nor
folk delegates already instructed
against instructions, although the
voice of the people was for Wilson.
My dear fellow" continued the
New Yorker, his face breaking into
bright smile, if could tell you
all know about Thomas Fortune
Ryan and certain others among the
big men, politically speaking, of
your state, you would want to sign
me up as reporter on your paper.
You probably know something of
the conditions under which the Will
son campaign in Virginia was con-
Quoted, but you do not and may
never know ALL"

ment of the negro vote in Lynchbmg
and Roanoke, when it was necessary TO
do so in order to carry those cities wet,
well know that the machine in charge
of the dominant party of the state is
not averse to using this vote when it
serves their own ends; while, on the
contrary, the record of the republican
party in the state shows that it believes
In letting the colored voters qualify
themselves to conform to the constitu-
tional qualifications, and thus become
better men and citizens and worthy the
rights of suffrage.
A said before, the enfranchisement
of the negro was, in part, the out
growth of the Civil war. This is true.
The other part was the idea,-the fun
damental to our form of government
Of universal suffrage. When our fore
fathers framed the constitution they
presumed that everyone reaching the
age of twenty-one would, by training
and education, be qualified to sppreci-
ate the right of suffrage, and so made
age the only qualification for the exer-
else of this right. That hordes of i'm
migrants would reach our shores, ignor-
ant of our language and institutions,
and yet be allowed to become voters
before they were really qualified, never
entered their thoughts. The south is
not the only section that has suffered
from universal suffrage. Scarcely a
city of the north but that has suffered,
at some time or another, from this mis-
taken idea that age can convey wisdom
enough to the voter to entitle him to
this right. Broadly speaking, it may
be said: that no one should be allowed
the right of suffrage unless they have
a good command of the American lam
guage, a working knowledge of our
government, and an appreciation of the
genesis of our institutions, and certain
ly no one having all these qualifications
should be barred from the exercise of
the right.
However, this is apart from the main
question. The News frankly acknow-
lodges that the question that has kept
the south solid no longer is a menace.
Then, why revive it and try to inject
it into the coming campaign? Why, if
desirable twenty years ago that the
south show political independence and
not be held by 1.-The incubus of a name,
is it not desirable now?
That political conditions in Virginia
are rotten will hardly be denied. The
Lynchburg News publicly proclaimed
that fact year ago, and called for re-
form within the ranks of its party. De-
feated in this, however, it is now sup
porting this same organization which it
once so vigorously denounced, and
crawls behind dead and buried issue
TO defend its course.
If the News really is sincere for the
political independence of the south and
reform in the management of the affairs
of the state, why then not quit the par
ty when your influence and counsel goes
for naught and join the party that
stands for southern progress and true
reform in affairs of the state, and let
the dead past bury its dead"

That so many boys leave the farm for

fact that many boy has been driven

HOW SEVERAL IOWA CITIES
HAVE REDUCED THE COST
OF LIVING.

In the February Woman's Home
Companion there is a splendid article
showing how the cost OF living Is
being reduced in several cities and
towns OF Iowa by the establishment
OF loca, open markets where produc-
ers and consumers are brought to
deal directly with each other. Des
Moines, Cedar Rapids, Waterloo and
other progressive cities and towns
have made the venture with success.
OF the establishment made in Des
Moines,S the author reports In part as
follows: Ia
The city council. with many
doubts as to the result. ordered q
miniature park adjoining the old
city hall to be thrown open to the
gardeners and farmers OF the vicin-
ity for use as curb market.
were made by city Off
|cials that there would not be five
teams at the market the first day,
and, indeed, there were but eleven.
Citizens visited the market place
more out OF curiosity than with a de-
sire to patronize it,but the movement
gained from day to day until. after
two weeks. the line OF wagons over
flowed tn" Little park and finally
covered SIX city blocks.
zone noticeable result OF the new
market. is that the nearby produc-
er finds better market with better
prices, and at the same time the
cost OF such produce is greatly re-
duced for the consumers. The pro-
ducers claim that through the sys-
tenn operated by the commission
houses the sale OF home grown pro
ducts was discouraged, and at times
no market at all was to be found for
the local farmer, or that the prices
offered were so extremely low as to
discourage the home market.

tanned from day to day since the
market has.b been opened, showing con
