Fl. l.. Faulkner and S. H. Milwee have filed a petition on their own be- half in the probate court as creditors of the estate Of Matt Besloif, deceas- ed for the removal of V. A. Paine aB administrator of the estate.

BUSINESS MEN AT NOON TO-DAY.

A meeting that should be OF interest to great
number OF Richmond business men Is to be held
at noon today in the Chamber of Commerce
II should attract great attention. At that meet
ing every man who attends will be told how to
get payment for his debts. Such affair
should attract more than ordinary interest even
than meeting telling one how to con-
tract debts.
AS matter of fact the city is greatly in
terested In arriving at some solution Of the dou-
BILE problem OF protecting itself and assisting the
cotton growers in their needs. Both sides should
find opportunity in the meeting today for the
advancement OF their interests.

The expressed will" of the people of Virginia
is opposed to the liquor traffic. 1t is ex-
pressed in favor of any exemptions. for the
people OF Virginia understood quite thoroughly
that the exemptions were the work OF the liquor
interests. They also knew that the temperance
leaders of Virginia did not desire these exemp-
ton, did not approve them. and do not propose
to stand for them 1t was in this light thai they
voted for prohibition, and It is because of this
knowledge of theirs that we are firmly con-
WINGED that they desire the striking out of these
exemptions by the next Legislature.
Finally Mr. Gilmore's own allies in Virginia
are not now In accord with him. The Roanoke
Times, most ferveut opponent of prohibition
and all its friends is favoring not only the en-
forcement OF the Enabling Act, but the adop-
Il fs-sst stringent regulations possible,
bition and are entitled to have 1t and to have
the subject put out Of their way" II the
Roanoke Times demands this much, and the
adoption of laws that have recently been pro-
posed in North Carolina for dealing with the
problem, Is It 20 be though that the rank and
hle of temperance people in Virginia will be de-
ceived by specious pleas such those OF Mr..
Gilmore's letter and fail to demand the absolute
elimination Of all these exemptions? We do
