The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1916-03-08
CONFERENCE REPORT ADOPTED.

TO intoxicating liquors. For this reason
and this reason alone the sproul
amendment was rejected by the con-
ference committee
The Mapp bill now goes to the
Governor for his signature. which It
must receive before the General AS
sembly can proceed with the election
of the commissioner of prohibition as
provided for in the law. The sixty-day
limit Of the session expires on Satur-
day. If the bill is put in the hands Of
the Governor today. he will have three
DAYS in which to examine the bill. and
return 1t to the Assembly ard still
give time for the election of the com
missioner before the regular limit Of
the session has been reached. OF
course, the session can be extended
for several days, or even for thirty
days In order to complete the business
before the Legislature. but It would
be without pay for the members.
The bill as finally adopted by both
Houses is printed elsewhere in The
NirGinian, and We commend It to our
readerg for careful study Already
there has been considerable question
on the part OF citizens Of certain cities
and counties which are exempted from
the provisions OF the law concerning
drug stores. The Virginian thinks It
should be emphasized very fully SO
that 1t may be understood by every
body that the counties and cities
which are exempted from the drug
store provision were exempted by the
action OF the senator's and delegates
in the General Assembly representing
those counties and cities. If for ex-
ample In the city Of Richmond, the
physicians and the people are dissatis-
fed with the exemption Of the city of
Richmond, that dissatisfaction should
not be with the General Assembly as
a body for the exemption was made
at the requests OF the representatives.
of the city of Richmond in the Cen
eral Assembly.

The conference committee on the
Mapp bill, consisting of Senators
Mapp, West aud Gayle, and Delegates
Jordan. Meetze and Robson, agreed
quickly on the report to be presented
to both Houses on the Mapp prohibit
ton bill, and the report was presented
on yesterday in both the Senate and
House, and adopted without discussion
The conference committee struck
out the provision inserted in the House
Of Delegates prohibiting the sale Of
cider. unless manufactured in the
State, and withdrew the cities of
Lynchburg and Fredericksburg from
the list Of cities which had been ex-
empted by the House OF Delegates
from the operation OF the hotel pro-
vision Of the act This last amendment
was made at the request of Senators
Addison and Goolrick representing
Ignchburg and Fredericksburg, re-
spectively
The cider amendment which was
stricken out was a very desirable
amendment in it's aim The purpose
was to prohibit the shipment into Eir-
ginia of chemical elders, and to con-
fine the sale of cider to Notwithstanding
cider containing not more than per
cent OF alcohol by volume and manu-
featured from apples grown entirely
in the State The statement In the
Evening journal that cider cannot be
sold in Virginia" is not correct The
law allows any man to manufacture
cider for his domestic consumption at
his home. and ii also permits the man
ufacture and sale Of Misunderstanding
cider containing not more than ! per
cent of alcohol by volume. The OBJ
lection TO the amendment by Mr.
Sproul, OF Augusta, forhidding the sale
of cider, unless manufactured within
the State was purely a constitutional
objection 1t was doubtful whether
such prohibition would not be in yio-
Iation OF the interstate commerce law,
for as the cider permitted is nom
intoxicating. it could not be exempted
from Interstate commerce by the
Webb Kenyon law. which applies only

Statewide prohibition. or man who
himself ts not heartily in favor of the
law should he selected to enforce this
law. Nor should any man be elected
who has not been a success in tho
work which he has been doing. The
Job. as has been we'll said, is fun
mans Job, and requires man OF
energy. courage, good Judgment and a
sincere belief in the righteousness of
The prohibition law.
II the proper man Is selected as
commissioner. the Mapp bill will re-
salt in genuine prohibition for Viz
GINA. and the stamp provision of the
law will in all likelihood bring into
the state treasury greater revenue
from the commissioners ONCE than
the $4,000 taken out of the treasury
to enforce the law.

KIDDIE CLOTHS never seemed quite
so FASCINATING! To such an extent
is this true that we've frequently heard

How much more interesting must such
things be to real mothers.

Forty tons constitute q carload. and

numerous camps established through.

son opening up the deposits Of this
ore and hauling II out for shipment.
II 10 said that 600 tons. or Is car.
loads. are now on the dump at the
mines or at Kerby awaiting hauling
TO the railroad. The opening up Of
this new industry was made possible
BY the great advance In the price of
this ore, the bulk Of which had here.
tofore been imported from Europe.
II was found cheaper to ship the ore
BY vessel across the sea than to trans
port II across this country by rail,
hence the deposits on the west coast
we're not developed, The freight
across the continent Is greater than
the former prices paid for the ore

CARRANzA GOVERNMENT


period OF revolution. rebellion and
internecine strife.
No better evidence OF this attitude
could be found today than in the
statement OF the high administration
otficial mentioned, who said;
This government still hopes for
peaceful settlement; we are even yet
far removed from war or interven-
ton. But even should Il become ne
cessary. through some overt act OF
Carranza or his armed forces, for the
punitive expedition 10 take up a more
serious task. whom would our armed
forces set out to fight7"
War department ofiicials said that,
In the event OF real trouble. they ex-
pect no more than two or possibly
three real engagements. But there
would still be left the more serious
work OF policing and pacifying the
country south OF the Rio Grande.
II would not be a matter. they say.
OF taking two or three strategic posi-
tions by force OF arms, and then
treating with the established govern
ment for peace. for they are con-
vinced that one or two victories for
American arms would break any hold
CarranEa has on the Mexican govern
ment.
War and navy officlals today said
II would be a small matter compara-
lively to blockade all OF Mexico. But
they asked. whom would we block
ade?"
The population already Is near
starvation In many sections, they de-
clared, and TO put into effect real
blockade simply would mean further
suffering for those this government
wishes TO relieve. There would be
no government with which to treat
as TO lifting OF such blockade.
For these reasons, administra-
tion officials are even more deter
mined to go slowly. II was frankly
admitted and emphasized that the ad-
ministration will strain its powers TO
keen ont OF Mexico,
Although many officials believed
real action. n Il comes at all. will
not come for several weeks. Il was
expected that all haste will be made
TO get the militia to the border as
soon as practicable Except the men
from those states in the far south,
the militia men must be acclimated.
1t was expected that after the militia
men reach the border a period OF
wait,ag viii follow while Carranza Is
given a final chance.

RoBT. TwOHY ON EASTERN
PROSPERITY.

There have been rumors from Port
land that the firm Of the Twohy
Brothers company would embark In
the business OF building wooden ships.
and that a ship yard would he oper-
ated by them In Portland. The re-
tarn Of Judge and Robert Twohy
from the east has pvt new life into
the rumor. though Robert Twohy, In
an interview Tuesday. denied that
dehnite plans had yet been made He
said, however, that proposals made
them were under consideration and
that announcement would he made
later, As these two astute represen-
tatives OF one OF the great Industrial
firms Of the west have spent several
weeks OF late In the east. and have
absorbed much OF the commercial
situation. the following statement
made BY Robert Twohy is OF interest;
"The east looks Tor close race
between Hughes and Wilson, We
found the biggest men divided as to
which would win. believe there will
be more oratory and less mud In this
campaign than usual.
There is less OF the feverish buy.
ing in the east now. and one banker
We met said he considered the un.
derlylng business situation as soft.
Outside Of the industries affected by
the war there is really not such great
prosperity as we have been given 10

Doctors ]. Eat This +:
Cereal Instead Of
Drugs for Their :
Own Bowels !;

u No one realizes so well as the physician
tinued use Of drugs to regulate the bowels.
Until recently, drugs, mineral waters and
oils seemed the only dependable relief. but
today many doctors, large number Of hospi-
4als and sanitariums are prescribing and US
ing cereal that is composed Of the finest
selected wheat faxed and toasted, crushed
max seed roasted, and given delicious taste
By savoring with ground celery seed and
salt. It is highly efficient even in obstinate
chronic cases Of constipation and usually
gives quick relief to the various degrees OF
indigestion and stomach trouble. This new
cereal Is as delicious to eat as any break
fast food. or ready to serve cereal when
eaten with sugar and milk or fruits. Ask
your grocer for Uncle Sans Health Food
and quit the use Of drugs pills and mineral
waters. ~ Your own doctor probably knows
about it-most physicians do and recon-
mend it to their patients and use It In their
own families. A prominent New Haven
phvsician, whose name we will give on re-
quest, recently said: II have ordered Uncle
Sans Health Food for several patients who
required 4 laxative food with very salts
factory results-both to them and myself"
\ II your family grocer does not have it
write to Uncle Sans Breakfast Food Co.,
Omaha, Nebr., and they will tell you OF q
grocer in your neighbornood who keeps it
regularly In stock, crisp and fresh. A well
Known Bin2hamton physician says:' "This
Is the best food preparation know OF for
stomach and bowel trouble" You will mako
no mistake in trying 1t, no matter how
obstinate your case my DO.
