DR.. MASTIN WORK.

In little suite OF offices In the
State Library building there sits a
quiet thougsntful. tactful mana man
who has never found II necessary to
blow his own horn in order to get the
support Of the press and people-a
man of few words. but whose work Is
epochal in Virginias social progress
and moral uplift. We refer to Rev.
J. It. Mastin, secretary OF the State
Board Of Charities and Corrections.
Or Mast.n mas Just submitted the
annual report of his boards work to
the Governor In it he deals with
pains-taltinK care with the problem
presented by the feeble minded, their
care and their further increase.
The study of this evergrowing
problem was undertaken several years
ago by Or. Mastin and his associates
Their recommendations are not based
on any half baked conclusions. They
go to the bottom OF condition which
has long cried out for remedy-a con-
dltion which mas bred misery and
crime and countless cost to the people
of the State.
Shall nature at It's worst be allowed
to take its course or shall scientific
methods, administered from hu-
manitarian and Christian standpoint.

citizen.

FIFTEEN-CENT COTTON.

Every indication points to fifteen
cent cotton by spring. The bears have
explained why cotton can't go up, but
It hangs around the twelve-cent level.
many dollars a bale above the price
the most optimistic hoped for a few
months back.
The reason for the improved condi-
tons Is not obscure. The operation of
ample credit at the command OF the
cotton-growing South. The South
won't have to sell to meet Its bills,
Furthermore the cotton crop Is almost
as much below as last years crop
exceeded normal
The principal concern of the South
should be to gee that the men who
grow the cotton shall benefit by the
better prices rather than the specu-
lating element. Fifteen-cent cotton IN
the hands of big buyers Ia mighty
poor consolation to the man who
raised It and sold for much less.
A good price for cotton means a
prosperous South and a great aid to
Richmond's business as a consequence

Towns Officials Under Fire.

Matewan. W. Va, Oct. 2.--After an
investigation OF the murder OF Thomas
Chafin who was shot and killed on
the streets here, the City Council asked
yesterday the resignation of Mayor
Andy Barrett Hatfield and Chief Of
Police John Hoskins. Hoskins pleaded
guilty to the charge Of drunkenness on
the day that the murder occurred.
Other charges also were entered
against him.
Alleged brutal assaults made on a
number of strangers at various times
by officers OF the town have created
intense feeling throughout this Sec
ton. Half the citizens turned out at
the Council meeting to protest against
the alleged conduct OF the officials.
Two weeks ago young machinist by
the name of Hatfield, from Bluefield,
is allegedto have been assaulted by the
Mayor himself and for a while his life
was despaircd of. Last Sunday a
Hungarian was beaten into insensi-
