The times dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1903-1914, 1914-06-07

The Republicans are the calamity
howlcrs now" says the Northern Neck
News. and that with az little reason
as men ever had to assume the role"
Oh. there's reason enough: the Repub-
Leans are out and want TO get in.
1T has been left to the present adj
ministration. says the Fredericksburg
Journal. ito frame an entirely new eX-
PLANTATION for business depressions."
or course, the Journal doesn't know
that the present administration did not
frame the psychological" explanation.
and that the explanation Is not new.
1t doesn't know, of course. that Ii has
been given many. many times before. and
by business men who recognize the
part the state of mind plays In all
panics and dcpressions. There may he
other causes. but always there is the
psychological cause. and at the present
time it dominates.
The Radford Record quotes The
Times Dispatch editorial urging at
tendance on the conference OF Virginia
educators to be held In Richmond June
90. and, adding Its own approval, de-
clares that "if every community does
it's part" tho movement will be sue
ccssful.
The South Boston News also indorses
the conference strongly, and goes to
the heart of the matter when II says
that I'VE have one OF the best school
systems in the country. but there
is room for material Improvement"
The News Is not one of those news
papers which sees insult to Virginia
in every suggestion that things might
be made better.
Says the Hanover Herald The
Times Dispatch says: Regarding the
righteousness Of Mr. Wilson'S choice Of
Bryan. aside from the political feature.
there may be room for dispassionatc
debate. We have never been quito sure
that the President could not have made
a better selection y little bit self
consc!ous?" Come again: we don't get
you. steve.
Ashland needs A new school build
ing" says the Hanover Progress
Then Ashland should get II. especial
~ if, as the Progress says, the present
school building lis n disgrace to the
school board and the splendid corps OF
teachers"
Says the Lunenburg Call: In its is
sue OF last Sunday the Richmond
item:
The Lunenburg Call writes OF
The Failure of Mediation" If II had
waited awhile before writing that II
would not have written it.
The Times Dispatch is in error.
The article on Mediation was an edi-
torial from the Richmond Journal. and
was published IA such. being properly
credited to the journal II the editor
OF The Times Dispatch had taken the
trouble TO read as many as dozen
lines or the article he commented upon,
there would have been no comment"
Oh well, as the little boy would say,
what's the use of getting mad. We
didn't mean nothing"
This ia good town" says the Clare
mont Herald. and then breaches this
sermon: Let us get all the good out
Of 1t we can. The way to get the good
out of land is TO improve II. The way
to get the good out of "A town is to
develop IL. II is poor farm that
is all pasture. 1t ought To be worked
He is poor farmer who is content
10 make what nature may send He
Is poor citizen who is willing to let
the town shift for itself, taking ONLY
such benefits as come without the cx-
pencIturc OF energy or labor The
man who is satisfied to harvest mere
iy what comes up VIII have to live
on dict of weeds" And don't for
get 10 boost Prosperity is psyche
log ical." too.
