Valley Railroad.

In the II ouse of Delegates, en- the Sd 10
slant, Mr.. Linkenhoker, of Botetonrt. In
troduced bill to repeal the act entitled ar
act to amend the chart er Of the Valley Rail
road Company, approved April 2, 1879. The
act asked to be repealed is an insuperable ob
struetion to the resumption OF work on this
important improvement. IL is threat Of
cOnflsca:ion of the franchises and property
of the company, and consequently no plan
or effort to nes oriate loan for the prosecu-
ton of work south of Staunton could pos
sibly be carried into effect. Indeed, no
movement will be made, so long as this re-
strictive legislation stands as 1t is, to resume
operations, with view to final compile
ton OF the road to its southern terminus at
Salem.
Baltimore city has given assurances Of its
earnest cooperation with the company to
provide the means for the resumption OF
work, and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company will also give it all the encourage
ment 1t ear. The City Council Of Scaunton,
at its meeting last Tuesday night, passed a
resolution requesting the Senator and Rep
resentatives from this county to direct their
attention to the subject and urge the repeal
Of the obnoxious legislation which now
seems to be the stumbling block to the ln-
ausuration of active and earnest efforts for
resuming construction work. With this act
repealed, there will be very little difficulty
IN providing ways and means to this pur-
pose, as all the counties through which the
road will pass are deeply interested In its
early completion. We hope the bill of Mr..
Linkenhoker will encounter verg little OPP
positisa,

Bankrupt Law.

The commercial men of Boston aud other
trade centres of the country have been CIV
ing attention to the subject of bankrupt
law. The Boston commercial boards have
matured their sugge stion. The method of
going into bankruptcy is simplified to what
it was under the recent law. The services
OF the registers, clerks &C.. are 10 be paid by
stipulated salaries instead OF fees. The
charge of the government is limited to $50
In filing the petition, and one per cent. on
any surplus assets after paying priority
claims and expenses of settlement. A dis
charge can only be had when the petition
er's estate has paid so per cent Of his In
debtedaess, and when the estate is closed by
the consent of two-fifths In number and
value of the creditors and then certificate
from the officer that the bankrupt has acted
honorably. The essential element IN these
provisions, says the New York Times, dis
cussing the question,is the requirement that
bankrupts must pay at least fifty cents in
the dollar, or must show to the satisfaction
of some competent agent of the law or tile
creditors thst he has acted honorably.
There is no question that public policy de-
mands the enactment OF carefully guarded
bankrupt law. This view is being pressed
by the most Influential commercial associa-
tions Of the country, and viii. doubtless re-
sulr in the passage OF such a Law.
