Many of us seem to forget that
in this loose talk of fraud"
serious attacks are made on the
characters of respectable Vir-
ginians and against the white
Democrats of Virginia. Such ac-
cusation tends to unsettle conf
dence in the democratic party.
1t may be pleasant for those who
are angry or whose tendency is
toward unrest, turmoil and dis
satisfaction because their only
hope of power or place is in some
general upheaval and violent
change. 1t is well. therefore,
even at cost of some space on a
matter unimportant on its face,
to direct the public thought to
the facts. There is not the slight
est pretext for the insinuations
of fraud" in the recent pri-
mary. Those who whisper or
shrek them are trying their
best to do harm and arouse sus-
picion and uneasiness. They have
no reason or facts and their sug-
gestions simply are the outgiv-
ings from their own disturbed
minds or malevolent purposes. =

WHERE?

1.-The Campaign has made at
least one notable achievement;
1T has put Kenbridge on the
map. Newport News Press.
And that's where you show
your ignorance. 1t was Ken
bridge that placed the campaign
on the map. But few people in
the state knew that campaign
was in progress until Kenbridqe
advertised it. Even the names
of the candidates had never
been heard until sKenbridge let
the world know who they were.
Even your Coming man from
your section was not known UNI
til Kenbridge told the public who
he was. Now bow your apollo
gies."
All the same, tell US where it
/: if you Ken. Does anybody
live there?

LIQUOR ON THE FAIR
GROUNDS

The annual protest against the
sale of liquor on the State Fair
grounds in Richmond, has been
heard, as the time approaches
for the opening of the Fair.
There is no good reason, so
far as yet given, why liquor
should be made and sold any
where, in all this world. No such
good reason has ever been, or
ever will be Forthcoming, and
its sale in open barrooms parti-
cularly, should have been aban-
doned long ago. But we have not
heard convincing reasons given
why it's sale should be prohibit
ed on the Fair grounds when it
is permitted and encouraged a
short distance therefrom. The
good people of Richmond tole-
rate its sale. Visitors are not
kept out of the city on account
of the barrooms, and we fail to
see why people who tolerate the
barroom on the street, pass right
by the doors daily with no pro
test, should raise a hue and cry
about its sale in a shut off, Sc
cluded place just a little further
away. 1t would be just as un-
reasonble, if net nonsensical, tc
talk of -hoycotting Richmond as
it's of the Fair grounds.

The Lens of a Tear

1t was Richard Townsend
Martin, multi-millionaire society
leader who, visiting the east
side of New York a few years
since, found his true self in a
rebirth of soul-it was this Gift
cd man, freed from the shackles
of commercialism and lifted from
the mire of social dissipation,
who not long ago gave express
sion to a sentiment which en-
shrines a truth so beautiful and
a hope so precious that it might
have been whispered at the
grave of Il child by the lips of All
angel. In an address delivered
at memorial meeting in honor
of the heroes of the Titanic dis
aster, he said: eve can see far
ther through a tear than through
telescope"
Though the lens of a tear the
friends of Albert P. Gillespie,
an account of whose death al

ing, appeared in our news col
umns yesterday, look back upon
a life that had no stain and for.
ward to Il fulflment of the
promise of the just man made
perfect. Truly it can be said oil
him that he held his friends
with hooks of steel, that he was
pure in heart, that he wa.
honest, and tina the was brave
and patient and kind-in word
that he was a Christian gentle
man who Appropriated as nearly
as a man may his own persona

by love, the kindred and friends
who laid him there in his native
