A Blow At Prohibition Boss Politics

Prohibition was less the issue in last weeks Democratic pri- maries in Virginia than Prohibi- tion politics. Westmoreland Da- wis, a prosperous farmer, ran for the Gubernatorial nomination on a platform of com mon sense" in dealing with the drink issue as opposed to a policy of ianaticism which had gained as cendancy in the State under the leadership of the Rev James Cannon at the head of the Anti Saloon League. He received nearly as many votes as his two chief opponents put together, and at the same time he rode down the opposition of both Uni ted States Senators, all the Rep resentatives in Congress save one, and most of the other domi- hating politicians
 This event is of national signif canoe in relation to Nation wide Prohibition
 Precisely what Virginia wants in the way of drink control or drink suppression may not be known over any great length of time even to Virginians. But they did not want saloon bossism in politics and proceeded to stamp it out. They are now sure that they do not want in their politics an anti saloon bossism equally narrow and dictatorial, and they have given tha5 kind of boss politics reeling blow.
 What Virginia has turned against is what the United States Senate has just knuckled to, and there is a lesson both to the inti- midated Senate and it's intimida- tors of Mr. Cannon s Anti Sa- loon League. Some other Proli bition States may soon be heard from in the same unmistakable manner. Fanatical and domi- neering anti saloon politics is no more to be tolerated than demor alizing and corrupting saloon pol itics. The sooner this comes to be realized in and out of Con gress the sooner will Prohibition end as a Nationwide issue and find it's best and only practical expression within the States.

THE VALUE OF A NEWSPAPER

do not realize the great value of a live newspaper to a com immunity, they do not realize that modern newspaper is one of the greatest assets that a community can have. Strangers coming into a city and seeing newspapers pub lished there which are dad and dull, immediately have the inn precision that the city is dead and dull. If. on the other hand, they see live, bright, newsy newspa pers, they are at once led to be- lieve that such newspapers could only thrive in a live. hustling, up-to date com munity.
 The value of a newspaper is recognized fully by men who have achieved success, men who have become captains of indus try, who know the influence that newspapers wield, and who are acquainted with the immense help which newspaper can ren- der in building up city.
 One of the great captains of in dustry who believes in newspa pers is J. Ogden Armour In an interview in the St Louis Globe Democrat. Mr. Armour said:
 The daily press, I have found. is prime factor in commercial activity of every kind. It is in valuable iH broadening a market and in promoting understanding between the industrial institu- tion and the public.
 The press, in a sense, belongs to the public and enjoys it's conf dence and respect. This is fitting and proper. for 1 know of no greater and more unseltish force that is working for the interest of the public.
 The unit of cur national life is the community. On the pros perity of the community depends the prosperity of the nation. Fortunate is that community which has good, live newspaper for it's editorial and advertising activities are second to no force in building up and developing iss territory.
 Our civilization is based on specialization and specialization is based on the finding of a mar ket for the product of the spe- cialist The newspaper finds this market and develops it, thereby developing the home community, making it bigger and more prosperous and more sat isfying place in which to live.
 Before newspaper can make itself a power. it has to absorb quantities of money and the best 
 and untiring efforts of it's many directors. It's founders had to show their faith in the commu- nity, because a newspaper, more than any other commercial insti tuition, identifies itself with it's locality and lives and grows only through that identification. It is time that we recognized wbat the founding and developing of the press required on the part of the newspaper pioneers and those now in charge.
 The press has made itself a great economic factor in the com mercial activity of this age. It has demonstrated it's worth to a point where 1 can say without hesitancy that I believe in the power of newspaper advertising to create, intensity and broaden business.
 ITO gain a full realization of the influence of newspaper ad. vertising, one has only to imag inc the effect upon the bu ,iness of this country of sudden stop, | naro of oil moopc of nphlio ap
