A Message of HOBO to Virginia

QUITE apart from the point at issue
X whether Norman Call, the practical
railroad man who, by sheer forco OF merit
and wisely directed energy, has risen from
the ranks to the vice-presidency Of the
road to which his life has been devoted
shall succeed tho late William H. White
president of the Richmond, Fredcricks-
burg and Potomac Railroad, or whether
that responsible position shall be bestowed
upon some gentleman Of Statewide re-
pute and acknowledgements Westmore
land Davis has presented to the progressive
young men OF tho State ringing message
of encouragement. 1t is declaration that
from this time forth, so far as he personally
and as Governor OF Virginia can determine
it, efficiency shall be recognized. and the
reward Of talent and conscientious labor
shall not be denied to him who has earned
it to be reaped by "some gentleman OF
Statewide repute and influence" possibly
with politics the underlying motive.
Probably the Governor had nothing of
this sort in mind when he penned his
strong letter to MIR. Walters, chairman OF
the board Of the Atlantic Coast Line, tell
ing the latter why he, as Governor of Vir-
gina and by virtue OF that position a direc-
tor of the road. would cast his vote for
Mr.. Call as president OF the Richmond,
Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad in
which the State is heavy stakeholder.
The very absence of intent to deliver a
message Of such wide import to the pro-
gressive men OF Virginia makes it doubly
effective. For the Governor sternly sets
his foot on political e1pedency in the
handling OF the States financial and in
'dustral affairs, and as steward Of Vir-
ginia's large interests in the II. F. & p,
serves notice that SO far as he can bring
it about. efficiency and proper regard for
the roads future benefit alone shall serve
as the guido to promotion. He can sec
no soundness in the argument that because
the State happens to be n stockholder, bust
ness principle should be abandoned and
another and lower standard erected i'm it's
place.
Such n rule" says the Governor, refer
ring to the insistenco Of Mr.. Walters that
some gentleman Of repute" be selected to
succeed Mr.. White, would take from the
rank and flo OF the employees of tho
r., F.. & p. the incentive for their best en-
dcavor in the interests OF the company
and would, if adopted by the board of
directors, consisting OF tho Governor of
Virginia and Of the executives OF some OF
the principal railway lines in the country
mt this time OF grave unrest, justify the oft
repeated assertion that influence rather
than merit secures advancement in our in
dustrial life"
There is no getting away from that arEu-
