between the members and constituents with
whom they have differences
AS much as we should like to see all of the tes-
timony made public. we are firm in the belief
that the committee is pursuing the only correct
course and We hope the house will approve this
and let the incident be closed. The Judgment of
the subcommittee was endorsed unanimously by
the full committee. And moreover this con-
clusion of the full committee Is backed by the
precedent set on this question by the national
house Of representatives, The Virginian
thinks that not only should the house of dele
gates be entirely satisfied with the report Of
its committee but that the friends OF both par
ties and the general public should recognize
that the committee has reached a wise con.
cluson.

PEOPLES FORUM
Is the virginian Boycotted?

Editor Richmond Virginian:
Sr,--The quotation of my little say on pat
ronzing ones friends accurate, but the
headlines implied criticism of the Methodist
church, which not at all the case My
contention reinforced by, citing the Wes-
leyan rule in the "Disciplne'-far removed
from criticism.
IT has been reported that some firms which
advertise extensively have openly avowed their
intention not to patronize the Virginian because
of its prohibition principles. OF course, re-
fer to business houses in no way connected with
the liquor traffic. II this is a fact, 1t should
he generally known, and those people who en-
dorse the Nirginians principles and policy should
unquestionably give their patronage preferably
to such firms do not exhibit such hostility.
and more especially to such advertise in the
Virginian. This Is just plain. common sense
business proposition 1t would be absurd to
seek the enforced advertising patronage of any
body. But it is serious matter, II II be true.
that there is anything akin to boycott the
Virginian. any other paper on account of
it's or their anti-liauor Views, and it is up to
those who the friends of prohibition and

administrative board yesterday told
Mr.. Knowles to get rid of his dapper

out what the cheapest sort of m

at once, and suggested that a sleigh
might suit better. but Mr.. Hirschbcrg

We give space to the following letter from
Mr.. A. b. Williams. who for reasons which he
states clearly, resigns his position as contrbut-
ing editor of the Virginian:
Editor virginan:
Sr-During the present session Of the leg
isature my opinions and those of the Nlrglnian
have been opposed almost every important
issue that has arisen. We are at the beginning
row of a Statewide prohibition campaign The
Virginian presumably will give much OF it's edi-
torial space to the advocacy of prohibition
While as every reasonable should be. ! al
ways have mind open for argument, and
respect facts certainly my opinions now are
against prohibition very strongly. In these cir
cumstances 1t seems to the continuance of
my name at the head of your columns as con
tributing editor" would be inappropriate, II not
ludicrous, and tend to put both the Nirg'nian
and myself in a. false light before the people.
Aside from this responsibilities here increase
constantly and the demands my time and AT
tention become more urgent and numerous with
each month. l have been able to contribute
very little to the columns of the Virginian since
last fall
ignation as Contributing editor to the Virginian
be accepted. It Is proper to say, to prevent
any misunderstanding, that the relations be-
tween the Virgnian and myself have been cor
dial and pleasant throughout 1t would be a
pleasure to continue the connection for
my own sake, and to comply with the wish
kindly expressed several occasions by the
manag cement Of the Virginian, but 1t is better
that we part company for the present at least
/ 1t can he understood readily that. with my name
at the head of the Roanoke Times, as editor, and
vigorous editorial warfare In progress between
the Times and the Firginian, with my
name over its editorial columns as Contributing
editor" 1t would make the situation incon-
gruous to say the least
Respectfully and sincerely,
! ALFRED B. WILLIAMS,
Roanoke, Va March II, 1914,
! There is little to add to what Mr.. Williams
says He states the facts with his accustomed
/ frankness. He Is correct in his surmise that
4 THE Trginian presumably will give much OF
its editorial space to the advocacy Of prohibi-
/ ton" We regret that brilliant and versatile
friend will not be found standing shoulder to
shoulder with us fighting this great battle. The
Viroinian and Mr.. Williams do not always agree
! by any means, but each respects the honest opin-
ions OF the other and there is mutual respect
MT Williams is of the most versatile and
entertaining writers in the country. Even those
who hold opposing opinions recognize his fair
ness and frankness He is bold fighter but Is
open, courteous and fair He meets his oppo
nent in the open and does not close the columns
of his paper against those wishing to be heard
In opposition to him.
