C. M. Nc CLAIM, Lawer, Justice
of the Peace and Farmer, Green
field, Nelson County, is Opposed
to Prohibition for These Reasons
FIRST. Because I think it would
be invasion upon the fundamental
principles of Self-Governnent.
Second. Because | think the
liquor traffic would be carried on
more extenively and illicitly than
under the present temperance laws.
and by rude class of citizens,
which would cause trouble, dis
tress and disturbance in communl-
ties where peace and harmony new
exist.
Third. Because I believe it to be
undemocratical in the extreme"
j. HENRY CRUISE. Justice of
Peace, Snake Creek, Carroll
County, Writes:
n am opposed to Statewide
prohibition because it carries with
it feature of oppression, and does
not diminish crime or stop drunk
enness. 1t does not add anything
to the cause of temperance.
II endorse Local Option because
it gives to each county and COM
lnunity the right tocontrol the sale
of liquor. The law, in connection
with Local Obtion, if strictly en-
forced, is sufficient to hold in check
the illegal sale of intoxicants. In
my humble judgment Statewide
prohibition will take from our State
a considerable revenue, and increase
the burden of taxation This mat
ter should be duly considered by
the good citizens of the county"
]. E. ROGERS, Farmer, King
George County, Opposes Prohi-
bition:
because if any control OF the
liquor question is just and right,
Local Option, which seeks to OBJ
tain the consent of the governed IN
each community, must be the just
and right way under our form OF
government. l am utterly opposed
to Statewide prohibition as pro-
posed under the so-called enabling
act, because it is manifestjy unjust
and unfair in that it takes the dry
counties of the State which have
exercised the privilege OF Local
Option in voting to force dry, wet
communities which have not exer'
crised the privilege of Local Option
when at the same time, if any dry
counties vote wet, ityis, not permit
ted license to sell as it has voted.
Because it is not a square deal a
piece of sneak thief Legislation

WILLIAM F. JAWS. Farmer,
New Point. Mathews County,
Thus Gives His Reasons for OPP
posing Prohibition:
because I am a Democrat and
believe in the principles of a true
Democracy, and l believe in Local
Government, not only in the sale
of liquor, but in various other mat
tiers, as the same laws do not suit
every part of the State. | would
not vote for the sale or manufacture
of liquor in my county, and |
think if any other part of the State
should vote a majority to force it
upon us against our will it would
be an imposition; therefore, if l
vote to prohibit the sale of liquor
in sections where the people desire
it, that would be an imposition
and undemocratic."

N. F. SMITA, Promin ent Con-
tractor of Berryville, Clarke
County, Opposes Prohibition:
"Becaue Statewide prohibition
will cause a great quantity of Virgi-
MAS money to be sent out of the
the State for liquor when it might
be spent in the State and Virginia's
money kept in Virginie.
Because Statewide prohibition
will cut down the revenue of the
State and cause this loss to be
made up by raising taxes on the
necessities of life.
Because Statewide prohibition
will not prohibit the sale Of liquor
in the State, but will cause it to be
sold illegally, and in manner and
in places which make it impossible
to regulate and control"

W. T. GUILD. a Well-Known Mer-
chant of Glenlyn, Giles County,
Writes:
"Ibelieve in Local Self. Govern
ment, and Statewide prohibition
would destroy Local Self-Govern-
ment.
Il think the people of each dis
trict should have the right to say
what should and what should not
be sold in their locality"
G. BECKWITH, Prominent Far
mer OF Passapatanzy, King
George County, Says.
Statewide prohibition is against
the fundamental principles Of de-
mocracy or Self Government. lIav-
ing been a commercial traveller for
many years, and during number
of years travelled in Kansas love,

found the prohibition law erad let.

people were in favor of license.
Local Option is the only way to
to control the liquor question.

Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines.
If you want to contribute directly to
the occurrence of capillary bronchitis
and pneumonia use cough medicines that
contain iodine, morphine, heroin and
other sedatives when you have cough
or cold. An expectorant like Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is what is needed.
1t cleans out the culture beds or breed
ing places for the germs of pneumonia
and other germ diseases. That is why
pneumonia never results from a cold
when Chamberlain Cough Remedy is
used. 1t has worldwide reputation for
its cures. 1t contains no morphine or
other sedative. For sale by all dealers.

HOLDING VERA CRUZ.

In President Wilson's recent order for the withdrawal
of our forces from Vera Cruz time was fixed It is
necessary to fix the time The troops were ordered
recalled because it believed that the Mexcans were
about to establish proper government and that they would
be able to maintain it. In view Of the complications that
have arisen the movement must be left to an open date
perhaps remote
Further than this it not easy to see why there should
be any change in the administrations program south of
the Rio Grande The against the Huerta usurpion
has trumphed If for any Carranza cannot ga
ther the fruits of that victory if his lack of tact has alien
ated the most powerful elements of the people, and if his
obstinate and churlish disposition toward Americans
makes him obstacle to peace and progress the fault
not ours and we need not trouble ourselves with the con-
sequences.
We have not been accustomed to regard Villa as a
statesman but must be confessed that he has shown
higher qualities in this respect than his chief In spite of
his low origin his early awessness and his later offenses
the soldier Of the revolution has had fimer grasp upon
the political problems than the pompous old hidago who
has outranked him.
United States troops were landed at the chief Mexi-
can seaport for purpose That purpose will not be ac
compshed until under some strong and approved leader
ship the people of that country accept and support gov
eernment of law.
