THE LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT
ASSOCIATION OF VIRGINIA.

The above named league has been
recently organized in Richmond,
adopted lot of whereases, rcsoluted
some little, and adopted platform of
principles" The object of The as
ISOLATION is to fight statewide prohibit
ton, and should have chosen, as it's
proper name, "The Liquor Advocates
Association, or some such designa-
ton. The Association" held an en-
thusiastic meeting in Richmond re-
Gently, presided over by Judge Chris
tian, for many years an elder in a
Richmond Presbyterian church, and
was addressed by number of tie
Leading men, and like the recent high
browed Progressive Democraticleau
went out of the state for its chief
speaker.
The association claims to believe in
local self-government, and declares
that statewide prohibition destroys To-
cal option, by forcing the people of
one section to adopt the plans, wish
es, ETC., of other section whether or
not. In other words, statewide pro-
hibition destroys local option, and,
therefore, is subversive Of local self
government.
This would be alright, if it were
not all wrong entirely. Local option
lists everywhere believe in local self
government, which is the same thing,
and in the interest of local elf-gov-
eminent, claim the right to say who
shall and who shall not do business in
their midst. If Richmond, Peters
burg, Roanoke, Bluefield and Poca-
hontas, towns which favor the licensed
saloon, will confine the business to
their own towns exclusively, local OPP
tionists would have little ground for
kicking; but so long as outside liquor
houses continue to do business in To-
cal option districts, the local option
laws are annulled, and local option
people are forced to interest them
selves in order to protect themselves
from what they declare an objection
able and undesirable business. State
wide prohibition, after all, is only
statewide local option. That high
