With the State Press
Richmond's Reserve Bank.

Some of the newspapers Of Washington and
Baltimore. which cities will be within the region
to be served by the Federal reserve bank, to be
located in Richmond, Va, bitterly condemn the
selection of that city the location of one of
the banks. These newspapers are not only keen
y disap pointed that their respective cities were
not chosen regional centers, but they seem
to resent the fact that Richmond chosen.
They speak derisively of the organization COM
mittees action in locating of the banks In
Richmond. The Washington Post refers con-
temptuously to that city the old capital of the
Southern Confederacy, while the Baltimore Sun
had no idea that Richmond being seriously
considered by the organization committee
Washington and Baltimore very bad
losers So are many OF the cities which failed
to secure of the reserve banks. There Is
also much dissatisfaction with the regional d.
visions. and efforts will be made to have much
of the organization committees work undone-
all of which have been expected. The
committee spent four months at the large and
difficult task of dividing the country into dis
tricts and selecting the cities in which the banks
should be located. and it doubtless did its work
ntelligently and conscientiously. And perhaps
no set of men could have organized the reserve
system more satisfactorily. owing to the impos-
sibility OF distributing twelve banks among scores
of cities
AS to Richmond, that city is to be cordially
congratulated upon the success of its campaign
to secure of the regional banks Richmond
was generally favored by the banks of several
States, and was selected by unanimous vote
of the organization committee in recognition
Of It's superior claims a financial and COM
mercal center. Any attempt to have the COM
mttees decision changed to take the
serve bank from Richmond and locate it in
Washington Baltimore should fail and prob
ably will fail
Practically all the national banks Of the
country have entered the reserve system. and
many of the State hanks and trust companies
Will enter later. II Is expected that the syst EN-
will be in operation within sixty days, The

Additional returns from the local option cleo
tons In Michigan Monday show that the prohi-
bitionists captured two important counties OF
the State, instead OF one. rs at first reported,
losing third county by only four votes on the

The Anti-Saloon league forces carried Roscom-
mon county and lngham county, the latter In
which the State capital. lansing, Is located and

BREAKING. Up RACE TRACK GAMBLING.

There has long been a law on the statute books
OF virgnia prohibiting gambling at tracks
1t has long been fagrantly II not openly violated
Ito the shame Of the authorities charged with
fits Enlargement. and, what is Of more concern TO
all OF us, 10 the shame Of the Commonwealth
That this law is to be enforced, and the practice
broken up il evidenced by the drastic action In.
sntuted by Attorney General Pollard Tuesday at
the jamestown track, when a raid was made and
arrests Of q number Of hookmakers effected
Governor Stuart Is standing behind the attorney
general In this righteous campaign. even to the
extent Of promising TO send troops in the event
that the local authorities. are unequal to the
undertaking
If the last general assembly had fit to
pass the sweeping antigamming measure 1t had
before IL such drastic measures the admtnistra-
ton has had to employ would have been
necessary However. there is sufficient law on
the statute books and that law must be enforced.
Race track gambling and all other forms OF
gambling not only at Norfolk, but everywhere
osse in the State must be broken up In this
vement the administration viii have the
rey cooperation OF the people Of the State
gardlcss cf creed or party lines.
II must BE said 10 the credit Of Governor Mann
and Attorney General Williams that they made
an effort to break up the race track gamblers at
Norfolk. but were handicapped by local judicial
eonditions. wAlca thwarted their efforts That
these conditions do not obtain now is evidenced
BY The conviction yesterday afternoon Of the
booknlakers by a Norfolk magistrate, all OF them
having received sentences of six months in jail
There is reason and hope to believe that the
crusade Instituted by the present attorney gen
eraI will be emtnently successful and that the
death knelI Of race track gambling has been
sounded in Virginia

Keeping a sharp watch on the lid of
the basket, the fox backed away eau
tiously several feet, lay down, and
fell to devouring the trout. But never
for an instant did he take his eyes off
that slightly moving lid. He lay with
his feet gathered under him, every
muscle ready for action, expecting
each moment to find himself involved
in a desperate battle for the prize he
was enjoying. He could not imagine
q fiery.tempered parsonage like the
mink tamely submitting to the rape
of his banquet. He felt sure that in
the next second or two snaky black
shape, all teeth and springs and
venom, would dart from the basket
and be at his throat. He was ready
but was not hankering for trouble.
Meanwhile, there behind the basket
lid. the mink was raging irresolutely.
II CALLED him to the marrow to watch
his big, arrogant. bush.tailed rival
complacently gulping down those fine
fat trout. But, - we'll, he had himself
already eaten one of the trout and a
good part of another. His hunger was
DluHl'u ll' NOllh ldB' W lNlllll ltdSohs
And his reason admonished him to
keep out of this fight If it could BE-
managed. He knew the whipcord
muscle underlying that soft red fur,
the deadly grip of those long, narrow
jaws. There Is no peace.counsellor
like contented belly. So he snarled
softly to himself, and waited.
The fox. having swallowed as much
as he could hold stood up. stretched
himself. and licked his chops. The
look which he kept upon the basket
was no less vigilant than before, but
there was now tinge of scorn in 1t.
There were still some trout left. But
he wanted to get away. He snatched
up the two biggest fish in his jaws.
and trotted off with them to the
woods, glancing back over his shout
der as he went.
DEFORE he had gained the cover OF
- the fir trees, the mink glided forth
planted his forepaws on the remain
ing fish, and stood staring after him
in an attitude of challenge. Had the
fox returned, the mink would now
have fought. But the fox had nc
thought of returning. There was moth
ing TO fight about. He had got what
he wanted. He had no rooted objec
ton to the mink having what was
left. He trotted away nonchalantly
toward his burrow under the roots OF
an old birch tree on the hill.
The mink stuffed himself till h

There were still couple of trout un

but he had not the ioX's wit or provi

came halfway across the meadow,
then stopped. and eyed for some time
the tethered horse and the deserted
wagon. Seeing nothing to take alarm
at. II made wide circuit, ran behind
the cabin. and reappeared, as the fox
had done. at the corner nearest to the
wagon. From this point of vantage II
surveyed the situation anew, a little
spark of blood.red fire alternately
glowing and fading in its eyes as its
keen nostrils caught the scent of the
fish.
Satisfied at length that there was
no danger within range. the mink
glided up to the wagon. The horse II
paid no heed to. II circled the wagon
a couple of times in a nervous. jerky
run. its head darting this way and
that, till its nose assured II beyond

in the wagon itself. Thereupon.-f for
