SALE OF LIQUOR At FAIR SHOULD BIZ
ABANDONED.

The officials OF the Virginia State Fair have
d license TO sell liquor at the fair grounds. The
Yfypsnidn trusts that they will not feel con
strained TO make use Of this license. but that on
the contrary they viii defer to the manifest wish
Df the State and refuse to take advantage of the
privilege accorded them. T1e matter Of rescind
Ing their previous action on the matter IS known
to have been brought 10 the attention of the fair
directors il is to be hoped that the public SEN
tinent of Virginia which has recorded itself
overwhelmingly in opposition to the liquor traffic
win be recognized by those in charge Of the
affairs of the organization, and that prompt
action will be taken.
The Ftvgiatan makes this suggestion in the
interest Of the fair and Of great number OF the
people of Virginia who do not feel that the fair
grounds is a proper place for the sale Of liquor,
and. who are. therefore. prevented from attending
its very beneficial and valuable exhibits.
bigger and broader and more beneficial fair
for all Virginia, We cannot see that the alb
sence OF liquor will damage the fair We do see
where It's absence will be OF very material aid
to the fair and TO the people of Virginia. An
overwhelming majority of Virginians have ex-
pressed their opposition TO the legalzed saloon
The Virginia State Fair should respect that will
Let us have a great fair, but let have 1t
without liquor.

Keep Up the Fight.

Editor Virginian:
sir--I desire to congratulate your splendid
paper for the brilliant and able fight it made
for Statewide prohibition The people OF
Richmond, and the State of Virginia, to be
congratulated that they have a paper w,1ch
they rely when they wish to wage great
moral battle.
Your paper has clearly unmasked the rea-
tonship of the liquor dealers of Richmond and
the nation to the Christian Owen Hirsch- Holt
so-caled Local Self-Government League"
tlnk you have demonstrated to the people Of
Virginia that more suitable and proper name
for this organization would have been The
Liquor Dealers beneficiary Alliance" Long
may The Virginian live and prosper.
Keep up the fight for prohibition. Virginia
should now 10 it that she sends to the
house of representatives and the United States
senate only such men as pledged to carry
out her wishes expressed in yesterdays eiec-
don. so that additional strength may be given
to the efforts to put the United States where
Virginia lined up yesterday, Yours very truly.
