With large dental parlors and equip

DIR. Dellinger, one of Richmond q
youngest, but most experienced, dental
surgeons, Is today enjoying one OF the
largest practices in the city.
DR.. Dellinger has the entire second
floor at Cos East Broad street fitted
up with IL large reception feoH, eff

several assistants and a lady attend

DR.. Dellinger graduated from the
University College of Medicine in the
spring of 1909. He commenced prac-
ticing dentistry in the fall of the same
year in Staunton. there earning for
himself a reputation which caused
him to be recommended by leading
dentists of the State, including some
of his professors at college. and other
prominent men to the army officials

States army. This position, however,
was refused by DR.. Dellinger, who
wished to pursue post graduate

leading dentists Of that State.
1t was about this time that DR.. Del

after looking over the different cities
he settled on Richmond as offering
the best opportunity for a young man

practice, and in this he has been very
successful, having treated in the
neighborhood of 1900 patients since
opening his parlors here last August.

Democracy For 4 Free Port,

The State convention of the Democratic party
of Virginia, which met in Norfolk prior to the
last presidential election. adopted the following
resolution:
Resolved That we heartily endorse the sug-
gestion that this government should establish
at least free port and that such port be
established on Hampton Roads in the State of
Virginia"
That was the convention which elected dele
gates to the national convention which, in its
turn. nominated Wilson Wilson elected
and the Democrats in control of the gov
eminent at Washington. Hence the plank in
the Virginia platform which have quoted is
In the nature of an instruction to the Virginia
delegation in congress. But doubt If any
body has thought of the free port plank
since Wilson elected
We do not know whether or not free port
would be of benefit to Virginia, but We believe
1t would be, and others who have greater kuowl-
edge of the subject are of the same opinion.
In any event, the Virginia Democracy is on
record in favor Of free port Hampton
Roads. and the members of congress should at
least investigate the matter and see whether or
not it would be good policy and good business
for the resolution of the State convention to
he enacted into law.-Newport News Press

Tax Reform.

One Of the real and permanent reform which
the present legislature must begin If it Is TO
meet public demands and expectations, is the
remodeling of our State system Of taxation. The
necessity of equitable readjustment is too
obvious to require argument and too pressing
to permit delay. The general proposition Of
the nequity of present conditions and of the
benefits to the State, well to the counties,
from the adoption of up-to-date scheme of
taxation has, indeed, far advised,
avowed opponents. but there may oe some
special interests: which the benefciaries
Of the old system and which would dislike to
be brought to book. Fortunately, owing to the
legislative rules if any such opposition
exists 1t must show itself in the open and cannot
choke off legislation in the dark. We assume,
of course, that there is scarcely any need of
emphasizing Chairman Bakers suggestion as
to the Importance of nonpartisan commission,
That is, of course, vital point and the whole
movement had better be abandoned If that Is not
kept scrupulously in view. But what is de-
handed is not only a nonpartisan commission,
but commission OF genuine experts, the very
abiest that be found in the State men
whose names and characters will command
public confidence.-Baltmore Sun.

FOR TAX REVISION.

More light will be thrown upon the subject Of
taxation and how best TO proceed in providing
for new tax laws at the Joint session tonight
Of the finance committees OF the senate and
house. Representatives OF the Richmond cham
her of commerce and others interested will be
given a hearing at this sitting. All of those
giving time and thought to this important ques-
zion OF lax reform have exactly the end
In view. and the difference Of view is to the
method
The original decision Of the finance com
rnistee was 10 recommend the appointment of
q committee Of twenty from the senate and house
to consider this subject, and be prepared to re-
mort at the special session Of the legislature,
which il is proposed to hold in January next
There seems to be a very general feeling
Throughout the State that such a committee
would prove both cumbersome and needlessly ex-
pensiye. and that a smaller commission would
be more economical and also effective.
This is the view Of the chamber Of commerce
and of the tax conference held here some weeks
ago We share the view that small body viii
be more desirable and efficient The entire sen
ate and house would be about likely to
reach an agreement as a joint committee Of
twenty.
With more thorough consideration and fuller
exchange Of views there should be no serious
difficulty in agreeing on proper committee or
commission We hope this body will not be
made too large.

We note that some of the Virginia news
papers. whether they favor Statewide prohbi-
ton not. express dissatisfaction with this
bill. If We going to have prohibition, they
say in effort, let us have prohibition. and not
n law full of loopholes through which men
may get all the whiskey they want. These con-
temporaries protest that the legislature should
give Virginia the fun advantage of the Webb
act by passing law prohibiting the shipment
Of whskey into the State in any quantity TO
anybody.
The protest would be proper and timely
enough, but for the fact that the Webb law is
not quite so drastic The Webb law, as we
remember, prohibits the shipment of whiskcy
from State into another State to be sold
in violation of the law in the latter State In
Tennessee, for instance. the law prohibits the
sale of whiskey. therefore the Webb law pro-
hibit the shipment of whiskey into Tennessee to
be again sold. since the sale of such whskey
would be in violation of the State law. But
Tennessee does not prohibit the drinking of
whiskey, does the Webb law prohibit the
shipment of whskey into Tennessee for per-
sonal use. Virginia could not prohibit the ship
ment Of whiskey into the State for personal
use. because the Webb law permits such ship
ment.
But the legislature can absolutely prohibit
the shipment of whiskey from wet territory
into dry" territory within the State, and it
should do The open saloon still has almost
three years to operate In Virginia. even if it
should be voted out In the Statewide prohibition
election next September, and the legislature
should pass a law that would prevent the
further flooding of dry communities with
whiseey from wet" communities There should
have been such law long ago.
So far as the shipment of whiskey from
other States into Virginia is concerned the
Mapp bill is drawn in accordance with the pro-
visions of the Webb law.-Bristol Herald

Sowing and Reaping.
BY ALICE r. CARSON.
Barboursville, Va.

Sow thy seed in the morning.
Nor a. evening withhold thy hand,
Though II it will fail prosper.
Thou mayst not understand.
Some fruitage there will surely be
In the harvest time awaiting thee.
Wait not for the gIehes upturning,
The uproohng OF every weed.
Wait not for the soil to mellow
To scatter the precious. seed
And frutage surely thou wilt see
In the harvest time awaiting thee.
Choose we'll the seed for thy sowing,
Sow ever truths golden grain;
Discard every seed of
Lest the harvest bring thee pain,
For the Lord of the harvest SAYS to thee:
AS thou hast sown shall thy reaping be-
And stint not the seed in thy sowing,
But scatter with lavish hand
Though the soil be hard and rock-strewn
And hramble-cursed the land.
BE not discouraged; there vet shall be
glorious harvest awaiting thee.
Go forth though skies may lower.
Though fierce the winds may blow
God forth though thunders threaten;
Make haste thy seed to SOW.
Heed not the storms-they may needed be
To perfect the harvest awaiting thee
And grow not weary of waiting
For the first weak germ TO appear: g..
The seeds of truth lie dormant
OFT times for many year:
But If sown in faith thou wilt surely
Their fruits in the harvest awaiting thee.
Faint not though the toll be heavy,
And count not thy labor done,
Till the shadows begin to lengthen,
And westward sinks the sun.
AS thou hast lahored, so shall be
The wealth of the harvest awaiting thee.
