The prominence Of the late Col. JOSEPH
S.-ALIsToN in the political circles of our
county during the past decade, his business
activities and the promise he showed in the
profession which he finally selected for his
life-work, make his death which occurred
in our village on Thursday morning last, a
conspicuous event in our local history.
Though only in the thirty -eighth year Of
his age, he had already served his county
for four years in the Maryland Senate and
had been ON the Electoral Ticket of his par
ty. This prominence and permanence OF
political success cannot be satisfactorily ex-
planned upon any other theory than that
he was man either Of great mental force
and fertility or born leader Of men. Ger
tainly, he impressed himself upon his par
ty and his times with extraordinary en-
phasis and it will not be denied that he

BETTER INQUIRE FIRST.

At Christmas holidays. the Senators
and Delegates of the Virginia legislature
will have an opportunity of seeing their
neighbors. At that time they had better
inquire whether those neighbours are in
favor of raising the taxes of Virginia
ST. 05O, 600. 1t Will take just that amount
of money at very moderate estimate of
cost, to furnish the free books TO school
children, promised by the State platforms
of the Democratic and Republican par.
ties, adopted last summer. How sincere
the two parties were in their bids we
know not. but we know pretty we'll how
sincere the tax payers of both parties would
be in their wrath. if a Democratic or Re-
publican legislature informed them at its
adjournment that it had put an additional
Tax of over "A million dollars on them,-
There is already provision in the law for
free books to needy children and it is
perhaps a law that can be made more
elastic and given wider margin, with
beneficial results. How far this can be
done we do not kDow, but we do know
that an attempt to tax the people of Vir-
ginia an additional million of dollars a
year In the name Of the free school sys-
lem would give that system check in
the public estimation. 1t is in the inter-
est of the free school system that we ad-
dress this word Of warning to the legis-
lature.

probable that Edmunds will be now chosen
by Senate that wants its Presiding Officer
to count the vote in 1883 in case of close
contest. The choice OF Logan, which
is more probable, would openly reverse the
popular verdict of last November and in
case of the disability of Cleveland, give a
Republican President to a Democratic
majority of voters. Sherman has lately
done 30 much damage to the prospects Of
his party outside of Ohio, that it is barely
possible he will meet with opposition in
caucus and that the Republicans may
agree on some compromise candidate. or
that the Senators of Edmunds' way of
thinking may combine with the Demo
