THE MEDICAL DEPARTMENT
of THE UNIVERSITY OF
VIRGINIA

We are in receipt OF a neatly
printed brochure entitled Shall
the Medical Department OF the
University of Virginia be Aball-
doned and Removed to Rich
nond," containing the record III
the case and a discussion OF the
reports of the Commission on
Medical Education in Virginia.
We are Of the opinion, after a
reading of its pages that the great
preponderance OF testimony is
decidedly in favor Of the retention
of this most important branch OF
education by the University. The
economic reasons, the educational
reasons, the reasons of custom and
precedent, the financial reasons,
are all overwhelmingly in favor
of the university. We believe
that the great mass Of public oplll-
ion in the state is likewise III favor
of the retention Of the medical
school at the university. Certain
ly the most enlightened opinion
points that way. But aside IRON
what might be called the srosser
reasons of expediency there is a
far higher argument forblddlng
the proposed divorce Of the n1edl-
cal department from the venerable
institution which today adds no
little to the fame and good name
of the state. This is eloquertly
expressed by one of the univer-
sity's most, distinguished sons,
John Bassett Moore, who says,
speaking of his beloved Alma
Mater: There are those who love
her! This sentiment OF deep at
tachlnent is characteristic OF the
alumni OF the University OF Vlr-
GINA. In useful demonstration
Of their loyalty they will never
be found wanting. They will relax
their efforts only when compelled
to believe that their eNertlons are
probably futile, because the legal
preservation of the object Of their
sacrifices and benefactions is I'M
certain and insecure. 1t rests with
the General Assembly Of Vlr-
;ginia, welding, as the Univer-
sity's legal guardian, the power OF
life and death, to lift this pail by
rejecting the present proposal with
such emphasis as to convince not
only the Alumni but the entire
American people that the unity OF
the University, which is its life,
is forever secure"

FACES NEW CHARGES

Norfolk, Va, Dec. 30.-Mutt and
jeff laid aside their differences long
enough to combine their efforts in
furthering the ends Of justice.
Their efforts resulted in the identi-
fication Of "Lieut. Harry Fades, U. S.
NJ" as he is known in Norfolk, but
William Ellis Newman at his home
in Roanoke and as Lieut.. Harry
Moore Miller when in Philadelphia,
according to Department of Justice
reports.
Newman was arrested four days ago
in Philadelphia for unlawfully wear
ing a naval officers uniform. Then he
was identified as the Lieutenant
Fades" who aroused interest in Nor
folk early in December by his story OF
fortune awaiting him should he be
married by December S. His subse-
quent automobile wedding with Miss
Ethel Asst, of this city was something
of a sensation. His identity became
known when Department of Justice
agents noted a resemblance to the
Fades description and looked for the
tatooed figures Of Mutt and JEFF

little more thrilling and exciting
than the pleasures OF the chase.
Modern methods, however. have
done away with the false glamor
Of chivalry. War is now dlscerned
in its literal significance as plain
hell. It is reduced to a simple
question Of chemistry and factory
smoke. II has become CONNER

heroic elements in human nature

and developed, such as physical
and moral courage, self-sacrltlce,
charity and good will towards a
fallen foe and generosity towards
a fighting one, discipline OF char
acter through suffering, and
others Of the finest human traits
these have been merclleSsly era
Dictated. With the disappearance
Of these virtues vanisheS all the
pretext that war ever had III its
favor. The peoples have awaken
ed to this fact. 1t now only re-
mains for those who are their
servants-no longer their masters
to obey their will. With the
evanisfInent OF warfare will come
the final abolition Of kings and
mobiles and a hereditary arts

they all should be and as ours is

Attack on Newspapers
in Senate Body Refuted

Washington Dec. 30.-Scnate tariff
hearings were enlivened today by an
attack on American newspaper pub
fishers by Col. William E. Haskell, of
New York city, vice president of the
International Paper company, and a
counter-attack on the newsprint paper
manufacturers by William j. Pape,
publisher of the Waterbury Comm
Republican.
Urging a tariff protection for his
industry against European COMPETE
ton, Colonel Haskell told the COM
mittee that Congress has gradually
yielded to the clamors of the paid
agents of the publishers" until finally
all tariff on newsprint had been re-
moved and "the industry abandoned
to drift in the cob and flow of the
international competitive tide"
The charge that any undue influ-
ence" had been used by the publishers
in arguing for the placing of news
print paper on the free list was de-
MED by Emory Thomason, of Chicago,
speaking for the American Newspaper
Publishers Association. He declared
the publishers had based their argu-
ment on the economic ground OF the
of American newsprint
manufacturers to supply domestic
consumption. This inability was
stated by Colonel Haskell
Publishers, who, as a class, largely
dominate public opinion affecting
business policies through direct APP
peal to readers, Mr.. Pape added, shave
been potently weak when fighting
for fair price for newsprint." He
declared that on no less than three
occasions in the last ten years prices
had SCARED to undreamed of heights"
and that nothing, including the fed
eral trade commission, congressional
and court action had stayed the de-
mands imposed by certain of those
who control the supply Of newsprint."
The removal from the tariff free
list of agricultural implements, bis
muth, cadium, sulphate of arsenic,
Bibles cash registers and sewing ma
chimes was asked by the various in
terests.
Shoe manufacturers appearing to-
day before the senate finance commit
tee were given to understand by Act
ing Chairman McCumber that hides
would not be on the free list when
the permanent tariff bill is reported
to the senate.

WAR IN ITS TRUE GUISE

ST. Adams, Dec. 22.-Fifty-two head
Of cattle perished in fire which last
evening destroyed the large barn on
the so-called Stanley farm on the
Georgia shore Of the lake owned by
Albert Benoit Many tons Of hay,
grain and other farm produce were
burned, together with practically all
the farm implements. The loss is
$4,000 and the insurance Is only

There was no one about the place
except the hired man and when he
discovered the fire the barn was mass
Of flames and it was impossible to save
any of the contents. The cause is not
known. The men folks Of the farm
were away threshing and the neighbors
did not know OF the fire until it was
too late 70 be of any assistance.
Two barns in the same vicinity
were burned last week, and it was
thought that tramps who stopped over
night may have caused the fires, as
cigarette stubs were found on the
grounds near one Of the barns.

BOY wANDERER IN COURT.
Toronto Youth Will Be Sent Back
from Vermont to Toronto.

White River junction, Dec 22.- In
Hartford municipal court "Wednesday
afternoon. Tony Romano pleaded gull
~ TO petty larceny charge and was
placed on probation, with suspended
sentence Of 30 to go days in county
Jail. and ordered to pay costs Of SS-35.
The respondent is employed as a pin
boy at the American house bowling
alleys. and his family is said to be in
dire circumstances.
In Hartford municipal court Friday.
Charles Marshall was before Judge A.
G.. Whitman on a warrant alleging lar
ceny of an overcoat from the American
house. He was fined $40 and costs and
sent to the county jail, having no
funds. This lad gave his age as Is, but
n letter from his mother showed that
he was only Is and that he left his
home in Toronto. Canada, four months
ago and his whereabouts was unknown
10 his folks until his arrest here.
The evidence indicated that he had
spent some time in the reform school
in Canada and was jailed in Montreal
last summer for carrying a loaded re-
volver. He claimed that he got across
the Canadian line by hiding in coal
box in the caboose Of a freight train
and he was taken from a freight en-
CINE at The Junction while stealing a
ride. With Marshall was another lad
haiIing from Concord. His father was
communicated with and took his boy
back TO Concord.
Judge Whitman got in touch with
young Marshall's mother through the
state probation officer and the proba-
tion department. with the immigration
officials, arranged TO return Marshall
back to Canada. Charles Smith. deputy
probation officer, arrived in town Mon
day evening with warrant to take
Marshall 20 ST Alhans TO be turned
over to the proper authorities for his
return to Canada. Marshall seemed
pleased 70 be going back to Toronto.
His reception in White River Junction
was not suited 10 his taste evidently.
and spoiled his notions of roaming
the world al large
