Surely here is proof that gown
can keep 10 the straight and narrow
way and still play havoc with the
hearts. of men. The lines in this
one-piece dress, designed by Hick-
son, are extremely simple, except
where the skirt INDUCES in a few
spirals. but the effect is so striking
ly smart that one instantly recog-
nizes it as a masterpiece. The black
panther OF the jungle cannot boast
of richer coat nor grace more 1.-the

lights play hide and seek in the vel

the skirt and outline the belt. Then,
in startling contrast, the collar and

seems to be crushed, a ribbon en-

The Nirginian was founded by men
interested in prohibition and other
reforms who felt the need OF such a
paper here at the states capital where
all of the papers then being published
were both unfair to nti-Saloon

bition.e ut would appear that these
papers are still hostile to prohibition

the appeal is made to the farmers to
vote for Davis because he is their
friend. Clowns in eircuses have rid

directions. what have the Italian ex-

Jim Ferguson was an affable per-
sonality. bu a lawyer OF ordinary abil-
ity and a modicnm of practice IN bei'
county. Tex. He married wealth
invested in farming and banking. he
conceived the idea of becoming cover
nor of the state. He ran as the farm
ers' candidate, Farmer JIM" and. be-
ing wet, the liquor people supported
him. OF course. he promised to en-
force all the laws. No candidate
would have the ~effrontery to take any
other position.
BY an adroit plank in his platform
he fooled the farmers and got their
votes over an opponent who had served
the democracy Of Texas for many
years. Ferguson is today the most
cordially disliked governor h state
of Texas has had since E. j.. Davis
and reconstruction. He has disap-
pointed the farmers. as Is inevitable
when anyone aspiring to be the COVER
nor of the whole people makes spe-
eial promises to one class. His high
handed acts have recently eliminated

The politicians program of combin-
ing the farmers and liquor interests
In promoting personal ambition Is no
new thing. 1t has often been at
tempted and wherever 1t succeeds 1t Is
at the expense OF the farmers, More
than one instance of such IN incon-
eruous coalition can be cited, where
the farmers we're left with the bag
TO hold" Farmers are honest. hard
working, unsuspecting men. They live
their SIM pie lives apart from the com
piexities and crookedness OF ward poh-
Iticians. They are the favorite instru-
ment upon which the cunning design
ers play. They a been buncoed
more frequently than any other class
confidently hoped, are too intelligent
to be used as a tool by any man TO
crafty his selfish ambition.
There are many people h hope
for the failure of prohibition in Viz
ginia. The talk among them is heard.
This moral spasm Will pass. We will
bide our time. things will come our
way again" They do not represent
those ants who accepted the will OF
the people in good faith: least of all
those who acknowledge the benefits
of prohibition. Nevertheless, they O n

How, it NAV be asked. can prohihi-

, many ways. The LIQUOR people will
feel that they have achieved a triumph
and will be encouraged to work for a
reversion TO the old order. Niolators
of the prohibition laws will be EN-
boldened by the hope that in some
way they will escape punishment. The

because Mr.. Pollard was believed to

pathy with the Journals declaration

has been telling them these seven
years. 1t was the truth told by The
yirginian in 1914 and the exposure of
the falsehoods and misrepresentation
OF the we papers that. in large meas
ure, accounted for the tremendous
majority given for prohibition. And
we hope that the truth which The
yirginian Is still telling and the neces-
sary warnings which 1t sounds will
prevent the people who have made
prohibition possible in Virginia from
committing the serious. yea irrepara-
