of Hampton. There were about 100 repre-
sentatives present. embracing lodges from
every city and almost every county in the
State.
The report of the Grand Master shows a
steady increase OF mem bership all over the
State, and the reports of the grand secreta-
~ and treasurer indicate a flourishing con-
dition Of the order.

Virginia's Direct Tax.

The direct taxes paid by Virginia were
collected by United States Commissioners
appointed by the President, and were
turned directly in to the Federal Treasury
by them, without going through the hands
of State officials.
Hence it is, says the Norfolk Landmor6'
that Virginia takes her direct tax refund ID
trust for those who paid, and she cannot APP
propriate it for any other purpose. Some
States paid from the State Treasury or from
county treasures into the Federal Treasu-
~. These can make any disposition the
Legislature may determine of the money
refunded. In Virginia the only thing the
State can do is to provide method and
machinery for disbursiDg the fund upon
claims established by those who paid or
their personal representatives. The Legls-
lature of Virginia not being in session the
money cannot be paid over, as the required
act of acceptance has not been passed and
cannot be before the next General AS
sembly meets. Tie Federal act requires
the State Legislatures to accept by resolu-
tion the conditions of the Direct Tax bill
before the officers of the Treasury are
author lied to honor the Governors requisi
ton for the money. The Governor has no
authority to send clerical force to transcribe
the records in the Treasury Department
and no money to pay for such service. lie
has no right and no disposition to permit
them or to authorize them to be copied by
any one, as to do so would simply throw
open the opportunity to secure the testl-
mony upon which might be manufactured
innumerable fictitious claims. Given the
information that the record disclosed the
basis of a claim for John Jones, bis heirs or
representatives, somebody would at once
set about establishing claim, bogus or
genuine, to cover the case and upon which
draw the money. The records belong to
the State, and by every consideration OF
Justice and prudence should be kept sacred
until the State is ready to disburse the
money, Then Of course the record should
be open to the inspection OF any citizen
who can furnish reasonable proof that he
has claim and can verify it by the original
receipt stubs. 1t will be impracticable for
Virginia to handle her direct tax fund
before January next. In the meantime
those who think they have claims can make
the necessary preparation to establish the
fact, and to have their proof verified by 3
reference to the books when they shall
come into the hands of the State for that
purpose.

Favorable Prospects of Good Crops.

The prospect for good crops of all kinds
of q ain as well as of fruit seems to be very
favorable at this time throughout the
United States, North, South, East and
West, so that if war should occur during
Tie ensuing year in Europe, as seems
probable, the United States will be able to
furnish those countries with the staff of
life. and that, too, at remunerative price,
ss there is a prospect of deficiency in
portions of Europe -notably in France
where the deficiency in wheat is estimated
to amount to 25 per cent.
Prices of all farm products are even now
going up, and so are the spirits of our
a-mers.
