4 HAPPY CHOICE.

Certainly there can be no criticism of the
filling of the first and most important of the
ambassadorial posts which come within the
province of President Wilson. His selection of
Waiter H. Page to represent this country at
the court of St James is a happy one Scion
of prominent family of North Carolinians who
have been pioneers in the upbuilding of that
Commonwealth, Mr. Page left with his brothers
the work so well begun by the father of the
family, and branched out into a field for which
he had always had a taste-iterature Since
leaving North Carolina he has built really
great magazine-World's Work--and is today
recognized as one of the country's important men
of letters. Polished and scholarly. he will carry
to his new post dignity, grace and courtl-
ness, as well as a knowledge Of men and affairs
that will reflect credit upon the country he
represents. We are sorry Mr.. Wilson couldn't
see his way clear to the appointment OF Vir-
gnian~-we have many of them who would adorn
the important post at ST. James-but he de-
creed otherwise are glad that the honor
goes to a favorite son of North Carolina.
The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1913-04-01
AROUsING CIVIC PRIDE.

In the census of 1910 Richmond was put down
as city of 12S,00o inhabitants, and according
to all the rules of statistics should have voting
population of something like $4,000, yet the Of
fetal figures show that in the last general cleo
ton less than 10000 voters exercised the right
of suffrage. That there is something radically
wrong has been long apparent and the root
of the trouble was very clearly pointed out at
the last tabe-talk luncheon of the Business Mems
club at which such men as Richard Evelyn Byrd
and C. V. Meredith discussed this problem of
causes assigned by the speakers-first the
of the individual who is not impressed
with his deep responsibility as an individual
in the matter of voice in his government
and the second the indifference of business men
as to whether their employees are properly i'm
bued with civic pride.
That meeting has borne fruit. Inspired largely
by the stern truths brought out then and partly
by the conditions which confront them. a num-
Der of the alert, progressive younger business
men of Richmond have formed an organization
for the purpose of developing a civic movement
that will bring out at the forthcoming State
primary and at all other elections every vote to
which Richmond is entitled. There is no par
tizanship in this movement; no purpose to boost
any reform or set of reforms-these young men
propose to get out the vote and let the reforms
take care of themselves, believing that when
the large class of intelligent young men who
have heretofore been Indifferent in the matter
Of their individual responsibility to the State
and to themselves is aroused, that only those
things which are needful and best for the greatest
number Of the people, will win at the ballot box.
1t is an excellent movement and deserves, and
viii receive, the support of every thinking man.
