The State Elections.

Thu time for these elections Is close upon
~. There had been such luli In the eX-
element with regard to them, and the in.
terest in the State Fair and the Presidents
visit to the capital Of Virginia had so di.
yerted public attention from politics, that
we had almost forgotten the elections, ana
they arc almost here. Next Tuesday Is the
day.
Another reason for the Intervention OF
lis:lessness has been the subsistence OF the
agitation Of the " cnforced-equity " decial'h'
ers. Beginning in a great clamor ABOUT OF
ganized opposition to one OF the regular
conservative nominees OF the State ticker
they ended bv withdrawing from the field
and covering up their retreat by claiming
fha, .hev had forced the regular nominee to
stand upon their platform. ITS OF no
consequence" We all understand it.
There is no deader thing in Virginia than
"eniorced equity" to call il by its dainty
name: or compulsory adjustment" to
give it blunter title.
We have not any apprehension as to the
next Legislature. No matter how the eicc-
lions 90 it cannot dishonor Virginia. We
now believe that the elections will turn out
better than we at one time believed they
would. We rather think that we are going
20 have better Legislature than the last !;
snd do not doubt that the course OF legls-
ton will be shaped both by the talent OF the
body and unavoidable circumstances, so
that public honor will be protected and
public Justice melted out to the public ere
diior.
The election will, we anticipate, be quiet,
and the people will wonder how so quiet
proceeding could follow such beatings OF
drums and squeaking of orators, with their
phrcnzied predictions. 1t will be another
Illustration OF the fable OF the fearful noise
in the forest that alarmed the inhabitants
thereof until committee OF foxes were sent
out to ascertain the cause. Soon returning,
they reported that it was a confounded old
cow-bcll. We think in the present case the
connection proceeded from a less diSniiied
cause.

THE CoSrEapT FOR LAw.-Onerous or nor:
the shameful disregard for the provisions go y,
rho Motfett law by liquor-dealers In this
citv cannot be justified by law-loving ana
law.shidinascitizens The report OF the COM
missioner Of the revenue for little over a
month shows that one dealer in this city
nays about one fifth OF the amount OF taxes
ont OF nearly two hundred registers. Such
a shameful disregard OF this law entities the
yiolator to no other consideration put q
rigid enforcement OF its provisions: Aho
vet this is the membership OF an association
who are to dictate 10 the voters OF Norfoik
who we must have to represent the city ID
the General Assembly.
This wanton disregard Of the law de-
strovs all sympathy for those who claim to
be oppressed BY it, and will cause the re-
f,ecting people everywhere to look with APP
probation on its provisions, whereas IL the
dealers had faithfully carried it out they
would have been entitled to the same sym
patty as any other class uniusly oppressed.
.sWhom the gods wish to destroy they first

The courts should take hold OF this whole
sale disregard of law OF the Common
wealth. Licenses should be taken away
from such persons and put into the hands OF
mon who will rcspcct the law.

a Question as to voiing-frOss NHn-
Semoasd County.

SUFFOLK, VA, November ,, 1917.
Editors Dispatch: Here is case de-
manding your attention and decision. On
the 18th day of June (say), 1877, county
treasurer made up his list Of delinquent
TAXPAYERS and statement of taxes col
lccted BY him, and sent the same to the
Auditor and paid the latter to the Auditor.
Included among the taxes (capitatlon ana
ally paid into the State Treasury by the
county treasurer were the taxes OF say two
hundred voters, who have not yet paid their
canitation tax to the treasurer. The
county treasurer has paid the capita
ton tax OF these two hundred voters " TO
the State" but the voters have not
paid it to the Treasurer. They are solvent,
and the Treasurer knows he will get their
taxes, or the equivalent in money OF their
taxes, which he has paid "to the state -
for them. The Treasurer was induced,
may be, to advance the money for these
parties to save his commissions on the sums
due by them; for If he returns them sol
vent and hasn't collected the money, ana
has il not to pay "to the State" he loses
his commissions thereon. But the capita
ton tax of these parties is paid to the state
(which is all that Tue Constitution re-
1uires-payment to the State), and they
can be said only TO owe the county treas
urer so much money advanced and paid out
by him for them. Now, although they vii
| not be able, on the day OF election, to pro
duce receipt showing that the tax is palc
to the State, yet they can produce satisfac
tory evidence to the. judges OF elections
showing that their capitation tax has beer
| paid g to the State" They can produce th'
county treasurer himself, who must swea
that he has paid the tax for them, ana ina

Can these parties vote ii they pursue thi
course? ALPHA.

can vote. We published last week the At

ton. ....

Editors Dispatch: The "Ncw Ticket .
headed by General Wickham and referred
to by your correspondent from Hague, Va,
has no significance whatever among the Re-

Der Of Republican candidates for the Legis-

only to aid in their own election. The Re
publicans OF the Statc.as a party, am sure,
will remain passive in the coming election,

Some Reasoning About Taxation.

The venerable PEACHY r. GRATTAN, OF
this city. who is a native OF Rockingham
county, addresses to his old friends through
the Rockingham Register some remarkably
sound reasons why the people OF Virginia
should stand by the honor Of their State
and provide for the paying TO the pubic
creditor his just claims. On the question
Of tie ability OF the citizens OF the State
70 nav taxes necessary for this purpose he
gives some striking facts to show that PEG
ple always find money to carry out mo-
five which peaScs them. lie contends, and
Justly, that the people can pay the addi-
tional taxes needed for redceulinS the pub
lie honor, and ii they do not ii is because
they will not. Dir. GRATTAS presents the
following striking view OF the liquor tax:
By the present li1uor-taN bill every per-
son who takes dr. ink OF spirits at bar Tor
which the price before was 10 cents pays g
cents upon it. At this rate every gallon OF
whiskey sold pays 81. We take the ave-
rage price Of whiskey to be 300 a gallon;
so that whilst the people pay so cents upon
the 500 OF real and personal property
owned bv them the man who drinks whls-
kew paws $40 on the hundred dollars
worth, or eighty times the amount
Maid by the owner Of property upon 1t.
II the object OF the authors OF this act
had been to suppress drinking then there
might have been sound policy in 1t. But
that was not their purpose, as avoWed by
themselves. Their object was to raise money
by this taxation, and money cannot be raised
by it except by the continued drinking OF
liuuor. Then the inevitable conclusion is
49, f,o,or,I ASsn,nblv which naSSed
the act and all its present advocates were
and are OF opinion that the drinker OF
LIQUORS can pay this tax OF = cents on their
ten-cent drinks, or eighty times as much as
the owner OF land and property is paying
upon it.
Again, Mr.. GRATTAS puts hard view OF
the question to both people and lawmakers
in the following paragraph:
These men who drink not only pay
the tax OF d cents to the State, Dn
they pay, in addition, to the seller OF the
liouor ten cents for each drink, and the.
have to raise the money to pay TINS lei
cents. as well as the . cents for tn
tax: and thus for every forty gallons o
spirits they drink, which at the price o
$3.50 is 500, they pay for the liquor-selie
and the tax $500. They pay this enormous
sum, which the supporters OF this bill say L
all proper, but the men who DO not waste
their means in this riotous living canno
nav q tax OF sixty or siXty-sevcn cents OF
the 800 of their property.
