Our Next Representative.

1t Is time the people of Wise
aud Dickinson counties were
looking around for crcditahlc
representative in the next Gen
eral Assembly OF Virginia. The
most sensible thing To do is to
unite on John Chalklry and
make him go back -as was
done IN a large measure when
lie was elected before. He Ia
able, aggressive. and fits ia
with the new spirit aud con
cepiion Of public service. BE
sides, hc has the advantage
over any other man 80 far as
getting results is concerned bN
having served one term aud
gotten acquainted But if
Chalkley cannot be returned,
let some Progressive Of proven
ability an q qualifications be
united on and elected. If some
start il not made, and that
pretty soon, the Standpatters
will put forward some precinct
rounder or 22-bore politician
and elect him We want none
Of that The Lord knows there
VIII be enough Democratic
standpatters in the next Legis
lature without adding any OF
the Republican variety
This matter is important
Virginia needs more or less OF
nverhauling and adjustment to
progressive ideas, aud the only
way TO get these things is
through our legislature. y
