WOODSTOCK, VIBGINTA.
FRIDAY FEBRUARY 21, 1908.
The Republican County Con?
vention is called to meet in Ed?
inburg, on March 7th.
CLASS LEGISLATION.
Senator Mann has introduced
in the Senate of Virginia a bill
which provides that "if any
person, company or corporation
shall damage any public road,
bridge or causeway by hauling
logs or saw-mill timber thereon
and shall not repair the damage
done within flee days after being
notified ot said damage by the
officer having charge of said
road, causeway or bridge, or by
any member of the Board of
Supervisors of the county in
which said damaged road, cause?
way or bridge, is situated, he
shall be guilty of a misdemeanor
and shall be fined not less than
ten or more than one hundred!
dollars or be imprisoned not ex-l
cceding thirty days, &c."
If this is not the rankest kird
of class legislation, what is it ?
A man with a traction engine,
a heavy load of rock, wheat < r
Other farm product may break
down a bridge with impunity,
but if a man with a load of tim?
ber should break down some in?
significant corduroy bridge, or
cut a deep rut in a soft road, he
is liable to be jerked up, and
cast into prison, or fined not ex?
ceeding one hundred dollars
If the Legislature of Virginia
is to be engaged in the discus
cussion and passage of such
bills, we can readily see why
Gov. Swanson is opposed to an
extra session.
It is now as certain as any
political future event can be that
Taft will be the nominee of the
Republican party. The Presi?
dent is very much interested in
the nomination of Taft for the
reason thau Taft is expected to
carry out Roosevelt's policies. It
would be more creditable to the
President, it, at the expiration
of his term of office, he would
retire gracefullv and permit his
successor to carry out his own
policy. It is not difficult to be?
lieve that it would be possible
for his successor to make a great
improvement.
While not as sure as Taft of
his nomination, it is more than
probable that Bryan will be the
democratic nominee. There is a
general feeling among democrats
that Bryan will be the nominee,
but at the same time there is
considerable doubt about his
election. The democrats have
more than a good fighting
chance of winning theelection, if
they could nominate a conserva?
tive man who could command the
influence of Mr. Bryan and his
party followers. Today Mr.
Bryan has a better chance of se?
curing the nomination than anv
other democrat in the party.
Yet there are other democrats
who would stand a much better
chance of election than Mr.
Bryan.
The republicans realize the
situation and are really
anxious to see Bryan nominated.
They do not want a man who,
thev believe, could carry a few
of the middle states, and seve?
ral of the middle west. The
Southern states are counted for
Mr. Bryan or any other good
democrat, w nai inc ucuiociaiK
party needs is a ticket that can
carry New York, New Jersey,
Connecticut, Indiana, and seve?
ral of the Western states. If the
party is able to select such a tick?
et, its success is almost assured.
Senator Ward oilered a bill
providing for the sale of
stock held by the State in
Internal Improvement Com-j
panies where no dividends have
been paid for fifteen years.
We do not understand the ob?
ject of this law unless it be that j
the state stock in turnpikes be
sold. Stock in these roads have
been soli at a nominal price,
probably as low as 5cts. on the
dollar. While the State has re?
ceived no dividends, she has been
paid for her investment in the
enhanced price of lands and the
large increase in revenue to the
State. What has the State or
the people to gain by throwing
this stock on the market, to be
gobbled up by some corporation?.
We would like to understand the ?
Object of the bill before we com- j
^Qent further, 1
mmmmmmmti a, tmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm^
?LET US HAVE PEACR."
The time for the reorganize
tion ot the Republican Party is j
at hand. Let the Republicans
of the county remember, "united
we stand, divided we fall." Let
them come to the rescue of the I
partv in Old Shenandoah County,
which of late years has tuen
rent asunder bv factional leader?
ship; let them determine that
such leadership shall cease, and
that our party shall be reorgan?
ized alon honorable unselfish
lines; recognizing everv element
of the party; doing equal justice
to all?with such an organiza?
tion we can present a solid front
to our opponents in the fu?
ture and prevent tl em from oc?
cupying the field, which belongs
to the Republican Partv by rea?
son of superior strength. Li I
us again have an organization,
whose purpose shall be to right
the enemy, and not to wage a
crusade against Republicans;
which latter course has resulted
in the loss of two of the most im?
portant county offices, and which
it continued will surely result in
the ignominious defeat of our
party in the future. Is there a
mun in the county, worthy to be
called a Republican v.l.o is not
willing to subordinate selfish con?
siderations, and personal feeling;
willing to 4'let by goues be by
goncs;" willing to "let the dead
past burry its dead," for the sake
of harmonizing the Republican
Party in Shenandoah county,
upon an honorable, fraternal
bnsis? If there is let him stand
aside for the good of ""theparty,
or be marched over by the Re?
publican column. Let delegates
be sent to the County Convention
determined to elect some intelli?
gent youngman as County Chair?
man, and a County Committee
pledged to carry out the above
suggestions, and the Republican
Party in oki Shenandoah will be
united again not only in name
but in fact, and will roll up a
handsome majority for the Re?
publican candidate for President
at the November election, and
will be invincible in the county
in the future.
