GOOD FOR THE SOUTHERN.

Good news comes from President Fairfax Har
rison. Of the Southern Railway, that the South
srn will proceed at once with the enlargement OF
its terminal facilities here, and has given the
American Locomotive company an order for
twentyseven large engines, which must be built
ct the Richmond plant
President Harrison in sending this very vel
come intelligence confirms the statement he
made when here recently as the guest of Presi-
dent White. of the Richmond, Fredericksburg
and Potomac Railroad company. He declared
that 1t was his purpose TO do everything he could
fer the upbuilding and development Of Rich
mend and that within reasonable time the
freight congestion. which has long existed in the
Southern's Richmond yards. would be relieved.
Virginia and Richmond felt greatly interested
in the elevation of Mr.. Harrison to the pres-
dency of the Southern through the recent sudden
death of Mr. Finley and their confidence in his
friendship for this State and city Is shown not
to have been misplaced
This double announcement Of important work
to be done here in the very near future Is highly
gratifying Having passed through year OF
widespread industrial and financial depression,
the hope Is very general that with tho opening
Of the coming spring there will be greatly in
creased activity throughout the entire country.
We are glad that Richmond is TO be one of the
first cities to share in this increased activity We
are also glad that our railroads the leading
factors in this renewal Of industrial life. Presi

spending Of perhaps a million dollars more.

VOCATIONAL EDUCATION.

The thoughtful address made before the de-
partment of superintendent yesterday by Mr.
David Snedden on Fundamental Distinction Be
worthy of careful thought His utterances are
the practical words OF a man who knows what
he is talking about and sympathize heartily
with his view that where there Is vocational
education 1t should be thorough. He very truly
says that every educator is keeny interested in
the social, economic and educational possibilities
Of vocational training.
The distinction which Mr. Snedden draws be-
tween liberal and vocational education is clear
and pointed. Liberal education" he says,
should train the mind, taste and character so
as to make man who is capable of SO utilizing
the resources of civilization to benefit him
self and to benefit other men who produce, and
who also utilize the goods of civilized society.
But vocational education he continues. must
make the producer rather than the consumer
OF utilities, Liberal education seeks. to pro-
duce the broad appreeiative man: vocational
education the intense. skilful productive man"
Mr. snedden very truly observes that the
two forms of education because of their diff
ferent aims. require essentially different methods.
The processes Of effective vocational education
will have TO be learned largely from the work
shop. the farm, the commercial establishment
and the home. The schoomaster needs to
pray. according to Mr. Snedden's view, for
wisdom, for modesty and for the power to learn
from practical men and women.

SMALL TAX COMMISSION.

The fight being made by the chamber OF com.
merce. backed by the action Of the recent tax
conference. seems to be bearing fruit In bring
ing about sentiment In the general assembly for
a small commission to consider the entire sub
iect OF revising our tax laws and reporting some
months hence general plan for consideration
by the general assembly In special session
Since the reopening OF this matter, after the
finance committees Of the two houses had decid-
ed to recommend joint legislative committee
Of twenty members, several propositions have
been made which more nearly conform to the
original Walker bill providing for commission
of FIVE. There seems to be strong SEN
timent for a commission Of seven, embracing
two members of the senate, three of the house.
and two other men to be appointed by the
governor
The Virotnidn has felt from the beginning
that better results would be obtained at much
Of moderate size. It will be much more difficult
to reach an agreement with a committee of
twenty and there must certainly be very much
more time consumed In general discussion
in committee. We again express the hope ad-
vanced sometime ago that after more careful
consideration the senate and house may see the
wisdom of committing this important matter
to q small commission. We hope therefore
that it will be decided to name commission
Of five or seven members.
