activities needed there. During

on account of the "gasless" Sundays
which are now in vogue here.

far as we are personally concerned,
VIC can naturally find no fault with
the two statesmen for the reason that
the doctrines that they are enunciat.

We are amused, though, to see that

perialism in them Is not as repugnant
as was imperial SIN in others. a few
months ago, for n Journalist to say

not only 'les Mageste," but it was
treason. Now, an editor cannot only
attack the President Of the United
States, but the Governor of the Com
monwealth of Virg mia, without being
cited by the Department Of Justice to
show cause why he should not be
punished under the penal laws of tho
United States. The following part
ing shot" at Governor Stuart Is inter-
csting:
Democrats of Virginia who stand
unmoyed before the popular clamor
for Federal restrictions upon tho
States, regret Governor Stuart's etti-
tude In favor Of Virginia's rat'fica-
ton of tho nationwide prohibition
amendment. Before the State voted
dry he was local optionist, and 1t
naturally followed that the people e1.
pected him to remain a staunch sup
porter Of the States right to enact
It's own sumptuary laws without seek
ing to force them upon other States.
AT least 1t was expected that he would
favor giving the people a chance to
express with their ballots their wishes
as to ratification. In this he has dis
appointed them.
Governor Stuart is the creature Of
his Party. He started out to go part
of the distance along the road Of Pro
hibition, but he has had his "ear to
the ground" and has decided to go
all the way. With Virginia statutes
inflicting heinous punishment upon
citizens for having in their possession
even Il gill Of liquor over one quart,
it is not surprising that the neccs-
sary vote Of ratification Of the Pro
hibit.on Amendment came without
effort. Conditions are interesting, TO
say tho least. We see God hand in

declaration, "Lo, the stone that the
builders rejected has become the
