Death of Ex-President Arthur.

Dc0tn Oi al
The public must have been shocked yes
terday by the announcement OF the death
OF cx-President CHESTER 4. ARTHUR; for
though some months ago his health was
known TO be poor, yet his condition had
lately been the subject OF comparatively
few paragraphs In the newspapers, and
consequently nobody was prepared for the
news OF his deccase.
Dir. ARTHUR was not In any sense great
man. His best friends never claimed for
him that he was entitled 10 be ranked as q
statesman. lie was. however, a successful
politician, and because he was such was
nominated In 1880 for Vice. President OF
the United States. lie was elected to that
Office. and thus became the successor OF
President GARFIELD. He performed the
duties OF his high Office with acceptance,
and retired from public life highly esteem
ed by many Of the people OF the United
States. His retirement was almost disap.
pesrance from the public view, so little was
there In his history or character TO attract
general attention.
We would speak OF the dead none but
good words. We in Virginia should, ac.
cording 20 our customs and traditions, have
q place for Mr.. Arthur In our esteem be-
cause be married lady belonging to one
OF our most honored families. We do not
mean to intimate that he hsd any faults TO
De covered up by eulogy; for we have
never heard anybody speak i'll Of him. His
account here is closed. He has gone TO his
long home. May he rest IN peace.

Exemption from Taxation.

At meeting of the Board OF Public In
terests on Wednesday evening, Mr.. COURT
MY, member OF the Board, said that the
report a a special committee regarding the
romi. sion and exemption OF taxes for GER
tain number Of years to manufacturers, to
encourage the settling Of capitalists in this
city, was not quite ready, and so the time
OF the committee was extended. This Is
an interesting subject. We know that some
good lawyers hold that there is nothing in
the Constitution Of Virginia forbidding any
city from exempting manufactures from
taxation for a number OF years and we
think some cities have done SO {; but we
have never been able TO understand how
those who hold that opinion can so explain
it as TO make ii consist with the following
section Of the Constitution. We quote
from Article Y, section 1:
"Taxaiion, except as hereinafter pro.
vided, whether imposed by the State,
county. or corporate bodies, shall be equal
and uniform, and all property, both real
and personal. shall be taxed In proportion
TO its value"
There is an exception alluded to above.
What is that exception: Wequote section
9 Of the same article:
"The Legislature may exempt all pro-
perry used exclusively for state, county,
municipal, benevolent, charitable, educa-
tional, and religious purposes"
There is nothing said therein as TO the
,,n,,.ar o. axor,pt opv Lind of manufacturer.
from taxation. by the way. is there any
limit Of time in this matter Of exemption
For how many years can new factories he
exempted from taxation: Or can they be
exempted forever Mr.. COURTNEY Is a
good lawye r, and will not report In favor
OF exemption unless and until he is pre-
Jared to show to the persons who already
have manufacturing establishments in tins
city that the Constitution does not stand in
the way of putting the new establishments
on better footing than the old ones. Per-
bsps, however, 1t i not intended to exempt
from taxation any manufacturing establish.
ments Of the same kind as any one OF those
now in operation in this city.
We are not disciple OF Mr.. CARLIsLE's
but as he used language In his Chicago
speech Of Wednesday night that can be APP
piled to the case under consideration, we
have concluded 10 quote two strong sem
tences from that speech. lie said
"Whtn the tax is supposed upon one part
OF the people, or enc class OF industries.
simply for the purpose Of Increasing the
profits OF another part Of the people, OF
another class of industries. or when the
tax is 10 laid that its necessary effect is tC
increase the profits in some industries al
the expense OF others, the equally merlto
yious impolicy and injustice Of the pro
ceedings are too obvious 10 require com
ment."
"American industries and by these
mean TO include every honest and uSeiu
occupation cannot be promoted by an
system OF taxation OF any policy Of legisla
ton which discriminates between them an
cbmpels one 10 contribute part OF it, owI
earnings T. increase profits or proven
Losses in another"
Mr.. CARLISLE says elsewhere that W
must "tx all alike aud protect all alike.

Mr.. Blaine's Letter.

Mr.. BIAiNE's letter, which we printed
yesterday, ~ the most non-committal letter
or paper that We have seen from his pen.
IL purports 10 be on the subject OF civil.
service reform. and get he has managed to
write rs ii-column without expressing any
decided opinion. lie declares that n GER
tain circular contains a singular peryersion
OF what he had said recently at Hunting
don, Penn, but he fails TO tell us what
he did say. lie refers Us to the Philadelphia
Press for an accurate report OF that speech.
II appears, however, that Mr.. BLAINE de-
nounced with an unsparing tongue evil
service reform as 1t exists in England.
Why he should have denounced the English
system unless he intended TO be I'm der
stood as condemning at least in measure
the American system, we leave the reader
TO guess. Everybody will agree that Mr..
BLAINE hits himself when he speaks OF the
hypocrisy OF those who wish the condi-
lions OF cNl.seryice reform to be enforced
against their political opponents, but not
against their political friends.
MIR. BLAINE's letter furnishes pretty good
evidence that he has not yet made up his
mind as TO whether civi-servicc reform has
come to stay or not. We concur with him
in his opposition to the English system OF
pensions, which creates class Of bread
eaters 10 be supported in idleness by the
taxpayers. In fact, the whole subject is
attended with great difficulties.
