CITIES AND TOWNS CANNOT Elk
EWPT MANUFACTURING
DIT A NIo
PLANTS.

The Virginia Court of Appeals has just
put to rest a mOoted question on which
there has been much doubt in the State-a
doubt which has resulted in several cities,
notably Manchester, going ahead and ex-
empting manufacturing plants from taxa
ton. 1t seems that the town council of
West Point had exempted the property
there Of the Richmond and West Point
Terminal Railway and Warehouse Compa-
ny. An application for a mandamus to
compel the council to lay and collect taxes
on that property as on other, brought the
matter before the Court Of Appeals. The
court decided that municipal corporation
cannot exempt an property from taxation
but must tax all equally. 1t held as fol-
lows:
ga municipal corporation has no element
of sovereignty. 1t is mere local agency of
the State, having no other powers than such
as are clearly and Enthusiastically granted by
the law-Taking power. A doubtful corporate
power, it has been said, does not exist, and
when any power is granted and the mode of
its exercise is prescribed, that mode must be
strictly pursued. Getting many authorities
Now, the power OF taxation is not only All
attribute of sovereignty, but it is essential to
the existence of government. Ittherefore, re-
sides in the legislature and there alone, I'M
less conferred by that body Indeed, strictly
speaking, it is not capable Of being transfer
led at all, for, as will be presently seen,
whenever and wherever it is exercised, wheth-
Ell by municipality or the State, it is in legal
contemplation exercised by tie State, acting
by her own officers OF local agents, designated
for the purpose. The power to make exemp-
lions is of the same nature, and is likewise
vested in the Legislature unless the Consttu-
ton otherwise ordainS.''

SOME TIMELY READING.
WHAT TAMMANY HAS DONE AND
WHAT IT HAS NOT DONE.

AS the country is being told a great deal just
now about the seriousness OF the Tammany-
Hill opposition to the nomination of Mr.. Gle
veland this year for President, it is worth
while to recall former instances of similar
opposition in recent years. When Mr. Tilden
was the most prominent candidate in 1876
with nearly solid New York State delega-
ton behind him, John Kelley, as boss of
Tammany Hall, went to the st. Louis Con-
ventiOn with special train of $50 followers,
He opened headquarters and hung out a pla-
card with this inscription
''The city OF New York. the largest Demo-
cratic city in the Union, is uncompromisingly
opposed to the nomination of Samuel j. Til
den for the Presidency, because he cannot car
ny the State of New York"
all the other State delegations and arguing
his case, Kelly distributed the following cir
cular:
Gas the friends of Gov. Tilden from New
York are industriously circulating a report
among the delegates to the Convention from
other States that the opposition in the State
of New York to his nomination emanates from
parties either without personal character or
having little political influence, it is proper
that the facts should be laid before the dele
gates assembled, that they may be enabled to
Judge in an intelligent and impartial manner
of the truth of these statements, and shape
their actions accordingly. The following
partial and very incomplete list OF prominent
New York Democrats who oppose Mr.. Til
denis nomination, on the ground that he can
not carry his own State OF the country, is the
best answer to these statements, and is all the

THE NEWS OF THE DAY.

Last summer Joseph Dye and Lee Hefiin,
two white men, brutes in appearance and
Intelligence, went to the house of a Door
widow named Hines in Fauquier, supposed to
have accumulated a little money, and muir
dered her and her three children, the oldest
girl of twelve. Both were sentenced to be
hung last Friday, but the counsel of Dive as
usual got writ of error from the Court of
Appeals. Gov Mckinney then respited
Heffln for sixty days until Dyes case should
be disposed of. The people not believing the
sentence was going to be carried out in either
case determined to hang them They went to
Warrenton Jail Thursday night, but the officers
had the men in wagon some miles off irving
to get them away from the mob and into the
Jail at Alexandria. The mob overlook them
and hung and shot the two men. The execu-
ton took place at Gainesville in Prince vii.

The Rev. Matthew Register colored, i.
serving sentence in the New Jersey State
prison for marrying two wives. Recently the
Mt. Holly, N. j.. Baptist church, ordered
some mating to be made for the church at the
prison. The deacons were somewhat surpris-
ed on unrolling it when it came home, to find
this note pinned on it
s'To the minister of the Baptist church for
whom this mating is for.
"The Rev. Matthew Register, a colored
Baptist minister, being weak of the flesh and
prone to sin was deluded by All artful
the Philistines and he was therefore deprived
of his liberty. But he hopes he may be re-
leased as was Joseph from Pharoah's bond
age; as was the lying woman in his case, like
Pharoah's wife, may be put to shame. He,
therefore, urgently requests the prayers of all
good Baptists in his behalf. and in return
will ever pray for his brethren and sisters,
and being now in durance and at hard labor,
worked assiduonsly on this piece of mating,
and considered it labor of love to his dear
brothers and sisters of the faith

will hereafter be published. We regret this
because it is a loss to the new town and the

prettiest newspapers ever published in Au-

every success in its new home
The Richmond State has just entered it's
sixteenth year. A first class newspaper
and the champion of progress in every good
cause, it deserves the great prosperity it
has won.
MI. Jos. K. Smith, one of the best all
round newspaper men in Virginia, after
running the Shenandoah Herald of Pro-
gress for a long time for company, has
done so well that he has leased it on his own
account. 1t has been great and practical
aid to the thrifty new town it is helping to
build up, and will continue to be so.

PRIMARIES FOR DELEGATES TIC
THE STATE CONVENTION.

The Lynchburg Ne,cs seems, after an Old
war phrase. to have been ''stung by bung, -
and in it's issue Of Sunday charges wildly
on the VINDICATOR. Until it arrives at
calmer frame OF mind it would be hard to
reply to its wild and reckless fire. It claims
that the INDICATOR threatens that if
! Cleveland is not nominated it and Mr.
Cleveland S friends will retire to their tents
and let the Republicans take the field.'' The
INDICATOR has intimated nothing Of the
kind. 1t has said ard reiterateS, that if the
feeling for Cleveland among the Democrat
ic- masses in this State is disappointed and
misrepresented by sending an anti-Cleve-
land delegation to Chicago, it will he hard
if not impossible to get out the Democratic
vote in November. and most certainly not
into line again. Does the Necs deny that?
Does the NeWs claim that there is any feel
ing among the masses of the Democratic
voters of Virginia for Hill?
We are not just now discussing John w.
Daniel, the Farmers Alliance, the Kent
bill, the Woman S physician bill OF any 9TH
Ell of the irrelevant medley of the past the
NeWs introduces in It's Mysteries. 1t should
have joined issue On them when they were
being discussed. We are now discussing the
representation of the preference of Virgin
! ia Democrats at the State Convention and
consequently at the National Convention
That is the subject aoac being discussed by
the Democratic people Of Virginia and We
are not to be turned away from what IS at
issue. 1t is contained in the following
words from the NeaCs:
''What are State conventions called for if
not to ascertain who is the party's choice?
and by what authority are the Hill Democrats
in Virginia to be waved aside and imperti-
nently told that they must not assert their
opinions OF express their choice at the prima-
~ meetings of their party %
That is the point. We want the Demo-
cratic primaries Of this State so held that
they may express the sentiments of the
Democratic voters Of the State. If that is
Democratic men, let them JOIN in the de-
mand of the VINDICATOR already made,
that the primaries shall not be meetings
which can be packed, but primaries held all
day at which the individual voters shall
have full opportunity. 1t is needless for
our Lynchburg contemporary to chafe and
foam at the VINDICAToR; it will serve the
party better by coming squarely down to
tue issue and advocating the holding of
such primaries throughout the State. II it
knows a reason why such should not be
held. let it give it. Give the Democratic
people Ct this State free, untrammeled,
unbiased vote on delegates to the State
| Convention and the trouble is ended Be
wise in time. Foam and froth do not count
with the men away off on the farms who
are thinking over the situation and have
been thinking over it for some time. They
must be satisfied on the point of represen-
tation of their wishes, and it is unwise for
Hill men OIL any other men, however distin-
guished OF however prominent in the party.
to turn their backs on the fact.

Ark, is president pro TEN, and has appointed
a temporary chairman for each of the South
ern States. Miss Cunningham invites CORES
pOndence from all Southern women who are
interested in the objects of the council.
Women n,y learned that to come together
and hear sniliects discussed from various
points of view means broader outlook and
higher standard of intelligence, and while
the growing-up girls may enter the colleges
and educate themselves, the older women find
such opportunities as these of great advan-
tage in gaining the knowledge of affairs so
necessary in these progressive days.
The projectors of this movement are greatly
pleased at the universal interest shown
throughout the South; they have received nu-
merous letters from prominent women in
every one of the Southern States heartily APP
proving their plans, and the indications are
that the Council of Southern Women will
be brilliant success.
