THE REINFORCEMENT

In regard to the re- apportionment
scheme, the Lynchburg News finds
upon inquiry, that few if any of the
papers of the Southwest favor it as
proposed. The proposition is to take
Tazewell, Giles and Bland out of the
Ninth and add them to the Sixth Dis
trict. The Sixth is now composed of
Charlotte, Halifax, Campbell, Bed
ford, Roanoke ard Montgomery
counties, and if the new apportion-
ment is made the new district will
include nine counties, and the Ninth
will still include twelve, as large as
any district in the State.
Some re-apportionment is neces-
sary in order to equalize population
and representation. The Constitution
provides that the districts shall be
laid off as compact as possible. +"
The phrase, Gas possible" is akin to
the expression reasonable" which
occurs in certain Republican docu-
ment, about which there has been
much discussion. Much depends upon
the point of view and the Interpreter.
AS compact as possible gives a
good deal of latitude. The District as
formed will be compact in one direc-
ton. All the counties will adjoin,
which is about all that can be said.
The Republicans charge that the
Democrats are playing politics. Sup
pose they are, what right has any
Republican to object? Wouldn't they
do the same thing if they could? Did
not this same, virtuous party, when
they had it in their power, boldly dis
franchise Southern men, and manipu-
late the ballot to suit themselves?
They did, and not so long and merry
ago tried to get bill passed whose
sole object was to reduce Southern
representation in Congress. "Playing
politics" forsooth If in the equaliza-
ton of representation in the Districts
of the State the Democrats use the
occasion to their advantage the Rep
ubiicans have no occasion to kick.
Wherein will the district or the State
be injured by sending a Democrat
from the Ninth instead of a Repuoli-
can, should such be the result? will
not Democrat have as much, to saw
the least, influence and power in the
General Assembly of the State and
Nation, as Republican?

TazeweII People
Should yry This

DR.. John E. Jackson states that
any one who has constipation
sour stomach or gas on the stom
ach, should try simple buck,horn
bark, glycerine, etc, as COM
pounded in Adler-i-ka, the new
German Appendicitis remedy.
A SINGLE DOSE brings relief
almost INSTANTLY and Taze-
well people are surprised how
QUICKLY it helps. This simple
remedy antiseplicizes the diges-
tive organs and draws off the i'm
purities. John E. Jackson, Drug

LET REPUBLICANS BECOME
DEMOCRATS

A bill has been offered by Mr..
Byrd providing for legalized pri-
mary W hich should pass. This bill
provides that any legal voter shall be
permitted to participate in the prim-
airy, whether he be Democrat or Re-
publican, provided he declares his in
tention of supporting the nominee of
the primary at the regular election.
When this question was discussed last
year this paper contended that the
doors should be opened wide to Rem
ublicans who wished to vote the Dem
ocratic ticket, whether they had ever
voted the ticket or not. 1t was ruled
by the Chairman of the party in the
State that only Democrats should he
permitted to vote in a Democratic
primary, which thing we believed
then was all wrong. Mr.. Bryd's bill
rights this wrong. Republicans, WHIT
wish to vote the Democratic ticket
should be not only allowed to do s,
but encouraged to do so. The Demo-
cratic call is to sinners to repent ant
"come out from among them,'' and i
they wish to do so, why in all reason
let them come without let or hind
rance. Give them the glad hand.

The serpent,s Tooth

When Col. Harvey, apparently
overcome by Gov. Wilson's austerity,
put the direct question to Gov. Wilson
whether the support of Harper's
Weekly was doing him an injury and
received from Gov. Wilson the cold
rejoinder that it was, / was both
surprised and shocked-Henry Wat
terson.
The World is surprised too. But we
cannot bring ourselves to say that we
are shocked.
For Presidential candidate to tell
an influential supporter more than
five months before the nominating
convention and over nine months be-
fore the election that his support is
no longer desired is surprising.
For man to tell an intimate friend
that his loyal and long. continued
work in his behalf is no longer a SER
vice but an injury is painfully un-
pleasant.
But we can see nothing shocking in
giving this frank answer to a plain
question. Presumably Col. Harvey
wanted the truth when he asked the
question. Presumably Gov. Wilson
believed he was telling the truth
when he answered.
Ingratitude - crises the chorus
of Gov. Wilson's shocked oppon ents.
We should be far from shocked even
if we could discover inrgatitude in
Gov. Wilson s position.
Ingratitude is one of the rarest
virtues of public life. "Gratitude"
is responsible .or many of our worst
political abuses. Upon "gratitude"
is built every corrupt political mac
hine; upon "gratitude' is founded
the power of every ignorant and un-
scrupulous boss; in "gratitude" is
rooted the system of spoils, of log
rolling, of lobbying. Lorimer was
elected by gratitude, Payne-Ald-
rich bills are passed for "gratitude, -
Hartman campaign funds are raised
for gratitude. I" The great majority
of the voices which are denouncing
Wilson's ingratitude are the voices of
machine politicians, chief among
whose stock in trade is this "grati-
tude. )"
No, what we need in public life is
a great deal more of discriminating
ingratitude. Such "ingratitude" as
gave Charles E. Hughes the conf
dence of the people when lie opposed
the bosslets who had helped to elect
him; such ingratitude" as gave
Gov. Wilson himself the appause of
the people when he defeated for the
Senatorship Jim Smith, who had
helped to elect him.
Gov. Wilson may or may not be
the wisest choice for the Pres Dental
nomination. But his gratitude or in
gratitude to Col. Harvey will not be
the paramount issue in the Baltimore
convention. New York World.
