PROF. JORDAN's LETTER.

The VirQ1tatan published yesterday letter. from
Professor c. 7. Jordan. Of Stanton, in reply
to letter recently given ont by Hon. Il, st.
distributed to the state press and printed as
paid advertising The letter Of Professor Jordan
is a strong and effective reply to the contentious
advanced by Mr. Tucker showing conclusively
that the right Of Statewide prohibition is In per
feet keeping with the principles of Democracy,
that it is method approved by the State and
federal governments in their dealings with mat
tiers similar TO the liquor traffic and that it In,
wolves threat to the local option or self
government rights of any locality
Professor Jordan also points out quite clearly
and logically that the State of Virginia. in It's
regulation Of the local option rights Of its com
try districts always reserves the right of de-
Gliding Just how far those rights shall go That
1t reserves the determination Of when a local
hight has been abused. and has In the past re-
fused to allow such abuses to continue There
are very many instances that might be cited in
support of these positions taken by Professor
Jordan. The illustrations he selects are ample
for the purpose of demonstrating what every
intelligent citizen Of the State knows for him
self-that While IT is possible for the State and
the locality to deal with the same matters. yet
when Statewide interest Is concerned the State
wide law and the Statewide right must and
will prevail,
The instance OF the Norfolk gamblers whom
the officials Of Virginia took in hand when Nor
folk county was unable to handle them, shows
that these things have been done in this State
and in this time The people who are now so
much concerned about the local option rights
OF Virginia were all approval when the COVER
nor and attorney general with strong hands sup
pressed these law-breakers. II is perfectly
logical and consistent for the State to handle
Statewide questions by recourse to the police
power Of Virginia A sovereign Commonwealth
cannot be denied the right Of controlling traffic
that is allowed in this State only by the sanction
Of that State power which the people Of Virginia
row propose to exercise in disestabishing the
soiaon.

DIR. DEJARNETTE'S LETTER.

Today The PtrGinidn prints ii letter from Or.
j. S DeJarnette, superintendent OF the Western
State Hospital. which gives conclusive evidence
o. the effect OF prohibition in the town of Staun-
ton by comparing the situation in that town
under wet and dry regimes
1t is not necessary for the voters of Virginia
10 80 outside their own State for evidence of
valuable results flowing from the divorce Of the
State from her unnatural and indefensible part
nershin with the liquor traffic. There abun-
dant evidences of the way prohibition works
within our own borders and surely the evidence
submitted by Dir. DeJarnette is OF such nature
an to convince the most skepncal. The fact that
reduction OF SIS per cent. in the number of
insane patients sent TO Western State Hospital
from the town OF Stanton was made by the
abolition of the legalized liquor traffic from the
city is a standing challenge to the advocates OF
the saloon to show cause why this reduction is
not TO be expected all over the State under a
dry regime Is ii not worth while to reduce the
number OF insane persons in the State of vir-
ginia 825 per cent?
Another striking and convincing fact is
brought out by the letter published today. That

THE MUNICIPAL EMPLOYMENT BUREAU.

THE MUNICIPAL EMPLOYMENT BUREAU.
The Board of Aldermen viii have before 1t to-
night the proposal for appropriating small sum

ployment bureau. This eort Of work Is in
city governments in America, but has been well
established In New York and Washington.
The Tirgtnioa is anxious that this work be
continued 1T should be done in Richmond The
fact that every year there are between eight and
ten thousand unemployed persons In Richmond
who become in way or another tax on the
resources Of the city is sufficient argument for the
undertaking of such work as that proposed
by the Municipal Employment Bureau

government should most exert itself, not in

Drug Clerk Tells How
To Cure Indigestion
Recommends 60 Sufferers the Best
Stomach Remedy in MarshalItown
Today.

TT is a wonder some Of us have
stomachs Left" remarked we'll known
! drug clerk recently. while all drug
stores sell a score or more OF stom-
ach remedies for which there is q wide
demand, most of them are just pepsin
pills which digest the food that Is in
the stomach at the time. They have
no curative or strengthening effect on
| the stomach at all, and of course do
not reach or cure the cause. SO the
same people keep on coming here and
buying and using them until they are
real chronic dyspeptics. When anyone
really asks my advice, / swear by and
! recommend ordinary bisurated mag
nesia. which doesn't digest the food at
all. but just acts as an antacid and
Isweetens the sour fermenting contents
of the stomach. That stops the pain,
heart burn, sour rising, wind, bloat-
ing. fullness. etc, in just few min
utes, and the stomach digests its food
without help or trouble. which is the
proper way"
| Doctors make mistakes sometimes,
| too" he continued. My own aunt had
all kinds of trouble with her stomach
for years. She bought and used sew
eral styles Of digestive pills but got
worse right along. as naturally she
would. Finally she went to a doctor,
who nearly scared her to death by
telling her she had cancer OF the stom-
ach. She came to me with his pre-
scription and told me what he said.

to another doctor whom I knew very

but just gave her this same thing, BIZ

trouble since and that's three years
ago. She's my own aunt and l know
