Just' why this sudden ‘turn to the bonds and connecting the orship therewitt hard to tand and it is_causing consid- confusion.

The people of the state are convinced th bond issue means an increas: jin their taxes, and they are pointing 10 the fact that they are now paying nearly $1.000.000 annually in the way of interest on bonds that were is ied more than sixty years ago. | There was conference of men {from many parts of the state here we lled by the Virgini s Association, and at this sentiment was against any bond for road= Replies to letter: the that » ent of the oppos to_the bonds. enator Trinkle and ed against and while Disy RICHMO! for v v elect neh of t members of this fal to =Zrowing mitted by from people are Mr. Tucker any increase this tantamount tixe! o opposition to the issuance of bonds, | that the candidates shall un-quivocal utterance on the ct.

It is observed that the exodus of men from the farms and the rural sections to the ity has come to an end, and there are many who have been here and who have been thrown out of employ ment who have gone to the country are back on the farm at There is reason to believe that of street car men here will take a tumble at the expiration of the present contract in October. The greatest decrease in the number of men in any one industry hereabouts has been in the sawmills, the genera i dec e in employment has been 22 per cent, and wages have fallen pro- portionate| War On Vice. The city has been stirred consid- ! erably on the public dance, vice and |the risque movie show launched when State Health Commissioner Wil- lisms called attention to the vice conditions—the joyriding, costuming of the young girls, along with the dance halls. The Rev. C. A. Jen- kins of Calvary Baptist Church, came back in support of Dr. Williams and informed the members of his congre- gation that they could make up their minds to take their names off the church rolls or they would have to abandon the dancing places and the movie shows, except in rare instances. On the other hand, there are some of the ministers who see no harm from home dancing and the movies, and they are defending them. Teachers in the public schools of the state are preparing to quit the service after the close of the sessions the coming month, and many of them will go to other states in which more compensation is offered. In Danville Ithe entire force of teachers has re- fused to sign up for another year, even at advanced pay, until they have been given the bonus for the last two years which has not been given them. |” The American Legion of this city is on the trail of the candidiates for governor and other state officers. The soldiers are asking for the bonus and demand that the candidates de- fine their position. With only eight days intervening before the closing of the lists of candidates to be voted for in the August primary, there have been pay- ments by none of the aspirants for governor and only two of the four candidates for lieutenant governor and the attorney general. The aspirants for the minor places were not slow to settle, and to date there is opposition for only three of the eight places to be filled. The final Ifiling day is June 2. Favor Taft Appointment. With the death of Chief Justice White of the United States Supreme {Court the people of this city and {state are discussing the successor {to that position. On all sides the is expressed that the selection will fall on former President Taft. The appointment of Judge Edmund Waddill, jr., of this city, as the suc- { cessor to Judge Jeter C. Pritchard to the circuit court, has occasioned a good deal of pleasure among his friends, regardless of politics. Scottish Rite Masons in this city are preparing for the spring reunion the end of this month, when a class of not less than 325 candidates, will receive the degrees from the fourth to the thirty-second. More than 200 of these have already been elected. and there are more than 100 names to be voted on at the meting to be held Monday night. There has not been such a number of candidates for the higher degrees for years, and the subordinate lodges of the state are conferring the degrees at every meeting. HYATTSVILLE.
