ALL SILENT UNDER
FLOPP|NG CHARGE
Virginia Delegates Stand by
Statement That They'll
Support Taft.

While the Roosevelt campaign man
ayers arc claiming that enough South
ern delegates have Topped to make
the nomination of President Taft i'm
possible. the delegates themselves
certainly those In Nirginia-are silent
under the charge. although statements
previously given the press showed
that they would stand by their in
structions and promises. AS matter
OF fact IL the delegates had noppod
they would not permit the fact to
become known. Most of them hold
Federal office. II they announced that
they would ignore instructions they
realize that they would be thrown out
OF Office b. the President. If they ig-
more instructions in the end II would
be regarded simply as AN effort to
jump on spectacular band wagon
ana in so doing they could not hope
TO make themselves solid with Roose-
welt. This is the view most generally
expressed by persons familiar WITH the
situation.
There is no danger or any Virginia
Topping until after the national con-
vention is under way. IL TAFT and
Roosevelt should be running neck and
neck on the roll call after Vermont
had voted 1t would leave the Virginia
delegates, which comes next, in tick
lish place. cspccialiy II IL should sup
the nomination after all the other
states had cast their ballots In the
event that President Taft is lending
by safe margin after the VS. are
reached. Virginia could stand by It's
instructions with the satisfaction of
duty we'll done in the event that the
contest is reversed. IT could support
Roosevelt heart and. SCULPTOR the
good of the party
Another question which has worried
the Southern delegates is the prcdic-
ton that Roosevelt might bolt II
Taft should he nominated. which would
Increase the Democratic chances. In
the same way the talk that Taft
could not be elected II nominated
might induce the Southern delegates
to gamble on the Colonel. They don't
want TO be on the losing side in Re
publican fight. and they don't want
to see the Republican parts defeated
I'm November.
Put this down" said a Republican
last night. THE Southern delegates
nrc going to play the winner. In their
hearts they virtually say TO Mr. Tart.
Heads We win. tails you lose. and
You've got to admit that until the
votes prove otherwise Can you blame

FIVE 7 HOUSANO
CENSUS TAKERS
Great Religious Work Will Be
Concluded in One Hour
Tomorrow Afternoon.
FINAL MEETING TONIGHT
Every Person in Richmond Will
Be Asked to Answer
Five Questions.

4 second call for volunteer census
takers, issued from the pulpits of
Richmond yesterday morning. brought
forth results most gratifying to Census
Director Durham, the man who is en-
gincering the gigantic task of record
ing Richmond's population according
to religious preference. 1t is believed
by Mr.. Durham that 5000 visitors will
be enlisted by tonight when the final
meeting for instructions will be held
Tie main auditorium of the First Bap-
fist Church will be thrown open for
workers from every section OF the
city. to be addressed by MIR. Durham.
John Garland Pollard chairman of
the central cofmittee, and other lead
crs OF the movement.
While the city was still gasping
from the announcement that a census
OF Richmond's population would be
taken within two hours ON the after
noon of Tuesday. May IS. Mr.. Durham
gave out that the plans had been
changed and the census would be taken
within "A single hour. Few people were
able to believe this at first. but with
The publication Of the army which is
to assist in the undertaking. credence
displaced skcpticism. and the doubter
got ready To put his shoulder to the
wheel.
All Churches Gladly Join.
Never in the history OF Richmond
has there been a religious movement
that has enlisted the support and CO.
creed as this plan Of census taking
has. ana the result will probably he
permanently felt in the religious life
sc tho city. Once the men of the cen
trail committee perceived that the plan
was actually nonscctariau aud undc-
nominational. that no church or faith
was to be favored. but all were to
benefit according to the work they nut
into the movement, al churches threw
themselves into the work with spirit
OF Fellowship that has never been wilt
messed here
The meeting tonight will be the
final gathering of workers before tho
actual census taking is done to-mor-
row afternoon. Judging from the at
tendance ana Interest shown at the
meetings last week, a crowd which
will far surpass the capacity of the
First Baptist Church will gather To
take part in this service. The coiored
workers met Saturday night in the
First African Baptist Church for their
final instructions. and the committee
in charge of this feature Of the can
vass reports that everything Is in
readiness.
In this mornings mail the 1000 Wis
itors will receive their assignments
from the various section supervisors
of the nineteen census districts. The
visitors Will go in pairs. and Will not
be permitted TO exert amy activity
aside from the actual recording OF
the 1--WE questions to be asked OF each
person. The business section Of the
city will not be included in tho census
district, the field Of operations being
confined to tho residential portion OF
