Academic Halls to Harvest Fields

L RON academic halls to harvest fields is a
long jump but it has been made by a con-
ingent OF New England collegians. a few
days ago nearly score of students were

IN harvesting the grain OF that State at a
wage rate OF 81 a day. These students were
from Harvard. Tufts, Boston College, Wes-
leyan and the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology
Three dollars day as a wage is two dollars
and half more per day than the average
college graduate gets until he has learned
something about business. This is the state

Results mt the Primaries

VIEWING the matter generally. there is
reason for satisfaction that the prohibit
tion forces have obtained in the upper house
OF the General Assembly a safe majority. A
considerable part of this safe majority is
represented by former local optionsts. who
have agreed as they should have agreed to
carry out In good faith the mandate of the
people, expressed at the polls last September.
We have not the slightest question that these
men will observe their pledge.
Objection to the undue prominence the
prohibition issue attained in the campaign
preceding Tuesdays primaries based on
the likelihood that 1t would lessen considera-
tons of the fitness and personal ability of the
candidates. Voters throughout the State APP
pear, however, to have given weight to these
personal considerations and to have returned
veteran Legislators. OF proved capacity, in all
save few instances.
This being the fact the further fact that
prohibition sentiment is represented by a
clear working majority in both House and
Senate is highly desirable. The people Of this
State want the prohibition issue settled and
got out OF the way, that Virginia may turn
her attention to other matters, vital to her
prosperity. The issue will not be settled until
it is settled right, and that means that prohibi-
tory laws best adapted to their end, provided
with enforcement provisions that are sane and
efficient, must be enacted and opportunity
given to demonstrate their benefcence. If
prohibition, in actual practice is shown to
meet the needs and increase the happiness OF
the people Of this State, few will desire to
abandon It. If it should prove unadapted to
life in Virginia, the conservative sentiment OF
the people will demand and effect a change
The experiment cannot be said to have been
tried, however, until it is fairly tried, under
circumstances that encourage and tend to pro-
mote success.
We trust the General Assembly will be
wisely guided, and In the enactment OF pro-
hlbtory laws will listen neither to the wild
fanatic. on the one hand nor on the other, to
the convinced reactionary, who hopes to make
this legislation ridiculous and unpopular by
making 1t overdrastic and unduly inquisitory.
So long prohibition is an issue all other
issues become secondary. Men are chosen to
public office, In many cases. because they be-
lieve in the public hanging Of the Rum Demon
or because they prefer TO have the demon
elevated in another fashion. Whether, In
any and every other reset, they are likely to
be good legislators or bad, receives only
casual attention.
The problems of Virginia are not confined
to whether man shall take drink in public
or private, or whether he shall take drink at
all Taxation, public expenditures, good
roads. education, health and many other mat
ters demand the attention OF the General AS
ompshed, it must be by men with the
brain 10 conceive and the will to do what is
best for the whole people.
That is why want the prohibition issue
settled-and settled once and for all time
