BIRTHDAY GREETINGS The Journal today offers a particularly hearty

and cordial greeting to one and all, in honor of its twenty-sixth birthday. We have safely passed through the tender years of journalistic childhood •nd, h< inff to have arrived at years of discretion And worth, endeavor to settle ourselves into the firm and steady gait that comes with tlub acquisi-tkS) of years and experience.

OoJ: interest in cominunity progress is keen, •with admiration for the achievements of the past, with satisfaction hi the spirit of the present, and with buoyant hope for the undeveloped opportuni­ties of'the future.

We Are striving to give you the best paper that can be produced with the revenue at our command and with the whole-hearted interest and co-operar-tion of The Journal force of workers.

Assuring you that we shall cwitinue to strive, to the limit of our ability, to fulfill every mission of a useful county newspaper, we thank you for your cordial and friendly assistance i^d foi your liberal patron^.

THE ELECmON A regrettable feature of the mass meeting

which nominated a munidp^ ticket on Friday was the absence of many citizens more or less promi­nently identified with the life of the town. Why they were not pi esent is not understood, but tiie

Bt assumption that th<ey were disinterested on-lookOTs'has failed of its mark. The meeting was

stily assembled, notice to the public being circu­lated through the Manassas papers only on the day of the meeting and the day before—which may or may not have arbitrated against a full attendance,

At all events, and perhaps on this aeconnt, a growing dissatisfaction with the ticket nominated has manifested Itself, >aJJIr, Harry P. DAvis, municipal treasurer and cashier of the National Bank of Manassas, has an­nounced that he will be a candidate fol m&yor— the first gun fired in opposition to the ticket named on Friday. Mr. Davis does not seek the office of his own accord, but at the earnest solicitation of s number of fiends, notedly including a large per­centage of the business interests of the town. Ma3ror Brown has declined re-election.

Public sentiment apparently is growing stronger each day in favor of re-electing the present coun­cil, or a majority of its monbers. The old council, excepting only Messrs. Arrington and Robertson, was repudiated by the mass meeting (il this be a proper name for, the small aggregation tif vdten present), the ticket being headed by a man whose candid«:^ is objected to by reason of his brief residence in the community.

The- old/ idea, which still justiy obtains, that it is bad policy to swi^ horses in midstiream, is the controlling factor in the sentiment for holding the present council in office. It is universally realized that this is a critical period. If re-elected, the present «>uncil will be able to continue their t^eo-gram of placing Manassas finances on a snbstantiid basis without a wasteful training period which 0 y new set of officials would have to undergo.

The chief criticism registered against the old councS is the fact tiiat they have ne^laeted th« streets. This is true. But why?

At the expense of the streets the money was used for the beiefit of our public utffitieft, to pay interest <« town bonds and to retire a bond as it matured each year. We all know how necessary good streets are. Mid we know titat OKMiey coSeeted for the streets should be used for that purpose. But we also know full well that Manassas has in her public utilities an investment—and a bonded indebtedness—of over $100,000, which we can even less afford to neglect at this time. "Sor can we af­ford to «Uow the payaMait of bonds and accrued in­terest to be in default.

Our revenue for the past few years, like the revenue of ivactically every other city and town in the country, has been inadequate for the nee(b to be supplied. A cut mu«t be made somewhere— tiiere was no alternative. Tlie council ehoae to save the pubbc utilities at the expoise of the stF««ts, chooabg wisdy what was most esaential to (ft^ comfort and the damage that eoold best be remedied when times imi»ove.

Their handling of municipd finances has been such that the treasurer vouches for the statemort that our financial condition is improved in a con-sidenUiLe degree, and the superintendoit of public utihties declares tiiat in another year, with rigid economy, the plant should be on a paying basis

If we are to inaugurate a new council in Septem­ber, following the June election, we shall be obliged

to go throu^ a period of reorganization and read-jufitment, when the hist councilmm white new to office are unable to.fanction with the wiMom, dis­patch and knovdedge which the aaasonad council-men have acquired.

Our present councilmen have studied the situa­tion for two years and are on the brink of having municipal affairs well in hand. Shall we expei them at a time when the need^ f maximum effi­ciency is pttamoui^ or shall wa bid thun finiidi the job?

THE HALL PROBLEM The high school faculty in a brief letter in to­

day's issue passes on to Manassi^ patrons a high school problem which is not a teacher's burden but a community problem for all of us to solve. As the high school commencement—and the com­mencement of, the grades, as well—i^tproaches, the faculty faces the problem of finding a ] ^ e to hold it.

While Manassas has two excellent halls for pub­lic meetings, their seating capacity is practic^y void on account of the scarcity of chairs. The town ^>parently does not hold enou|^ chairs to accommodate a gathering of Importance, sociid, political, educational,' religious, or otherwise. When meetings are held a wholesale movement of chairs is in order, and af r all if the attendance is moderately Urge there is "standing^ room only"— and plenty of it.

The college hall could notbe expected to invest v.\ new chairs. The owner of the public hall con­siders the Investment too expensive at this time.

It is said that the ordinary che^ chair will, co t at the rate of $25 a dozen, which makes the invest­ment involve a greater amount of money than a cursory taught would suggest. 'The peed is no less importaht, however, and community workers are cordially invited to consider it

THE UNIVERSITY TANGLE A commission, wisely j^pointed to consider the

wisdom of state supi>ort for two medical schools— the medical department of the University of Vir­ginia at Charlottesville and the Medical College of Virginia at Richmond^-has reported in favor of consolidating the two institutions and continuing the medical college at Richmond. Five members of the board are said to have carried the deeidon oiver ioui* dissenting votes.

CfaariottesviUe is ^nrathful over the prospect if we may accept as her spokesman,the Daily Prog­ress. And Richmond is jubilant,' if we may accept the verdict of the proa of the capita city,

Aside frcHB this purely loeal and geographical aspect—if an outsider may be so permitted to view it—the questicm has two fairiy weU-defin^ sides. The development of sentiment in favor of abolish­ing the medical school at the univeraity was mxes-sarily supported by sound reascms, in order to sup­port the commission's decision.

President Alderman sevegcal months ago of­fered this fatief but f<«ceful statement before the commia^n: '^othmg ^oidd justify the sepanu titm from a great ai^ tftowing university of an orgaaie and esseotiid part #f the university exc^t incoiftiatveftiMe proof tiutt the mcessary pro­cesses of educational work of that departmeiit eeald not with reasonable ai Hnqniatifm and wise Iegislati<m be carried on within the university. Any o^ier pocition wouki invite general-dismem-bermoit and dissolution, as abliorrent to an insti­tution as to an individual."

And, on the other hand, President Aledman very concisely sums up the eituation as follows:

T h e question before the commission apparently boiled down to the ungle question, whoe should the university conduct the medical school, com­prising both the medical deputment of the univer­sity and the Medical College of Virginia—(m its own grounds or in a distant city such as Rich­mond ? Naturally, the burden of proof would rest uptHi those who advise the removal of the medical departm«)t of the univ^vity from the university to Richmond. They must show that medical edu­cation will gain, not lose, by this transfer, and that the onivorsity itself will be strengtheiied, not weakened, by this transfer. Thwe are instances in AaMrica of medical schools separated from the parent university, but I do mt know of <Hie in which the separation took i^ace what the medical school at the university site was functioning at i,ta maximum of eflici^ncy for a century and at a tixoe what not a siiqtle one of its graduates for five years have faikd befote any Amencan state board."

However, the final decision rests with the Gen­eral Assembly, after the commiaaioo's retort is

I submitted.
