FEWER ELECTIONS

Agitation is being made for
the extending of the terms OF
State Comptroller and members
of the House of Delegates from
two to four years, the purpose
being to do away with biennial
elections. 1t is proposed to
elect the officials above referred
to at the same time the Govern
or is elected.
We believe this is a step in the
right direction and that if the
change is make, it will meet
with approval. The
change wJu.l inure to the hene-
ftof the taxpayers in at least
two ways-if not more; first, a
saving in taxes, which everybody
knows is a matter Of great I'M
portance to taxpayers now; sec
ond, it should, and will in all
probability bring about better
legislation and lend to the eff
cheney of the Comptroller, since
the experience derived from the
first two years in office would
materially aid that official, and
asession in the Legislature would
materially aid that official, and a
session in the Legislature would
enable new members of the low
.er branch to catch on to the
ropes and thus become better
prepared to render good and eff
fective service at a succeeding
session.
The people Of the State are al
most a unit in favoring any prac-
tical change in our State govern
ment that would mean a saving
in taxes and betterment of con-
ditions all around. We have an
idea also that it would meet with
approval of many interested in
politics, who have to bear the
burdens of political campaigns
year after year, which perhaps
slowly, but surely undermines
their physical and mental
strength in the end.
Whatever can be done should
be done to lesson our taxes, as
we'll as make for more efficient
government, and we believe that
fewer election trend in that di-
rection.

Entrance of brick and stone with simple paneling and carving lend a grace and dignity 10 the structure that bespealls the use to which the build
 ing is to be put. The exterior design of the school is known as Jacobean Gothic the style used in all modern schoolhOuse architecture today and used exclusively in all college buildings here and abroad. es- pecially in the buildings of Oxford Uni
