Musical Tabloid. With Strong vaude
vile Features, Hit at Orpheum.

The Orpheum inaugurated it's regu-
lar season Thursday evening with the
first musical tabloid snce last spring
The Follies OF Broadway" being the
Offering. The tabloid is under the same
management as the Colonial Minstrel
Maids which proved hit last season
The Follies of Broadway" is
especially good because Of the strong
vaudeville features. including Art
Tenny. clever juggler; Miss Merritt
wooden shoe dancer and saxaphonist;
Miss Marion Allen, dancer; Miss Patsy
Conroy, violinist and Ralph Ricca, ac-
cordionist. The last named is an
especial favorite here having APP
peared at the Orpheum twice last sea-
son with marked success
The soloists. Miss Lillian Hart and
Lew Hampton. are probably the best
that have been here in tabloid. Morris
Willard. comedian, was especially good
in his representation OF Joe WEIGH. Tho
''stalling" by member of the COM
pany in the audience was capably
handled and proved to carry out the
main thread OF the plot. The chorus
is nicely costumed and special scenery
is carried.

Communicated.

Editor Register-lt appears 10 be The
general opinion among the unbiased
thinking that no more representative man
could have been selected in the county
for the State Senate than Samuel ].
Hodges. Can there be found better
qualified young man? His record from
boyhood has been clean and one OF hard
work. Locally, by meriting them, he has
been honored with many OF our highest
positions OF trust and responsibility. AS
mayor OF our town he proved to be a dig
nitied and impartial executive; as re-
corder, painStaking and careful clerk ;
as treasurer, trusted watchdog OF our
town funds. His private business is big
and prosperous, built up by his industry,
fair dealing and strict attention TO the
wants of the trade. He is closely iden-
titled with the finances OF the community,
being vice president OF Jefferson Security
Bank, the richest and only oll-of-honor
institution in the county.
AS citizen he has always been quickly
responsive and liberal ill time and con-
tribution to every move for civic welfare
and betterment. He is an educated, con-
sistent Christian gentleman. well informed
as to the needs and what is best for both
State and nation, and is a man of pure
morals, excellent habits and sterling char
acter.
With strong will power and a firm
grasp on public affairs, il is inconceiva-
BILE that he could be Swayed from the
right in any legislation, and this district
could trust him and be proud of him in
the Senate.
II is rare opportunity the electorate
has to support such candidate, and il
is to be hoped that he will receive rous-
ing majority at Saturdays primary.

standing. For county commissioner from

a revolver and fired two shots. Both
bullets were close, the one nipping the

THE liquor dealers are working a
smooth game in their fight against pro-
hibition in Virginia Last week they
organized-they themselves keeping en-
tirely in the background-the Virginia
Association for Local Self-Government, "
and by various means induced number
OF very respectable Richmond men 10
take part IN a campaign TO pull The whiS-
key cheStnutS out OF the lire. Among
their speakers was Royal t. Caoell,
formerly u. S. Commissioner OF Internal
Revenue, who was always ready TO fur
nish statistics from his Office to show that
the less liquor men used the more was
manufactured, ard who still has fine
lot OF figures ready at hand to prove that
prohibition is a failure; DR.. Stuart Ma
guire, who had the nerve TO declare, in
spite of the researches and definite con-
illusions of real men OF science to the
contrary, that whiskey, wine and beer
are beneficial to mankind and several
other men OF prominence who undoubt-
edly have an axe OF some sort to grind
or personal habit they are unwilling to
give up.
The whiskey men are alarmed now as
never before, and they are going to make
a fight for life in Virginia this year.
Nevertheless, we believe that the hand
writing is on the wall-the saloon must 60.
