Baltimore and Rip Van Wrinkle

Baltimore bunged her for regional

Valley railroad We wonder If this IS her
characteristic in business matters. Baltimore.
to hold and enlarge her Valley trade, undertook
to extend the Valley road southwark, and Undue
cd several counties to contribute large sum- -
it, and actually graded tho road FAR Sa-
lem, but never laid the ties and rails farther
than Lexington. If this road had been carried
on south Baltimore would have had the grip
on Southern trade that has gone te other
cities.
At frequent intervals announcements are
made Of improvements and eXtensios that are
be made tho Valley road hut ve never

to print them on. as We have too long fully
understood the incapacity of those in whose
hands these matters rest
If outside interest could acquire the
pieces that constitute the Valley road, there
might he hope OF its being carried
through TO q Southern connection that would
make tho line of some Importance So long as
it constitutes the stuhtail to the Baltimore and

Is Prohibition Desira blcr

A citizen called the chief of police yes
tcrday to consult him to the best way, II
there were any at all, to prevent another citizen
addicted to drink from buying liquor.
The chief discussed the case with every man
Hesitation of interest. but he could no way
out Of the difficulty, except to have the man
put the byrd list: that is to say, to have
him declared "habtual.'
The chief asked il prohibition would be
good for a case like this. and he said without
hesitation that it would he, Such man. he
said. would not be able to order liquor from a
distance and hts only chance would be to buy
from a blind tiger hootegger. The chief
admitted that the blind tiger and the boot
logger would ply their trade in this community,
in case the State should dry, and he said
il would be difficult to enforce the law. with
sentiment against prohibition, But he has no
doubN in his mind that the evils Of intem-
perauce would be greatly reduced by prohf-
hition. even in this community, where 1t would

Mr.. Mitchell is in sense fanatic. He
is d practical who has had long experience
with the delinquent class, and this positive pro-
nouncement from him IS the strongest argu-
ment for prohibition that we have heard. 1t
is worthy Of serious consideration by all cit-
zcns who stand for law and order and morality.

With the State Press


The attempt in some quarters 70 connect
the contest for mayor Of the city OF Richmond
with the prohibition election in the State and
thereby create the impression that the result
in Richmond In the primary Is in line with
what will happen in September is poor politics
In judgment We followed the mayoralty
contest In the. capital city very closely and at
no time was either candidate charged with be-
ing the representative OF the liquor or prohi-
bition forces. IT Is telling no secret TO saw
the liquor favored and worked for Aims
lie. who was renomlnated by ar overwhelming
vote. and yet Ainsle did not ask for support
because he believes in the open saloon but
on his record mayor the past wear or more.
II the liquor men find any comfort in the
result in the Richmond primary IL viii not he
for long. for We can name two counties in the
State that viii return larger prohibition ma
iority than Ainse received in Richmond But
this aside, it is proper to say thai the pro-
h3bitlon issue should not become mixed with
any other election IT would he unfair for the
voters to punish this or that man because he
favored or opposed prohibition as the case NAV
he. Following the prohihition election, Vir-
einia will elect ten members of congress in No
vember We do not know how SINGLE mem
her OF congress will vote in the prohibition
election and 1t is of little concern 10 us for
the reason thar the attitude or congressman
in prohibition election has nothing 10 do with
his efficiency a representative of the people
That is the unfortunate circumstance of the
candidacy of State Senator Wenderhurg for con-
gress in the Third district against Coo gresham
Montague Naturally the liquor question will
enter into this contest. The fact u.s. there is
a feeling that Mr.. WendenburG was brought
out by the Richmond liquor dealers but whether
true untrue. no man shauld vote against Mr.
Wendenburg because he ia a saloon aoyocate
II he conseientiously believes that he will make
a better representative than the Incumbent on
the other hand no man who believes in the sa-
loos should vote against Mr.. Montague II he Ia
satisfied In his mind that he ought to be
retained In congress To make a long story
abort the members Of congress ought to vote
