County Affairs.

To the Editor of the Alexandria Gazette
1 noticed in your issue of February
2 I'd communication, signed Justice, !"
in which the writer attempted to score
Judge Chichester for refusing to grant
license for the sale of liquor in this
county. Among other things he says
that the people of this county had
settled the matter so far as they were
concerned by voting at the polls for
license, and that Judge Chichester, in
refusing to grant the license, was act
ing contrary to the will of the people.
In making the statement that the voters
at recent election decided in favor of
license Justice" is either ignorant of
the true state of affairs or deliberately
misrepresents the situation. In the
spring of 1883 the people of the county
voted upon the question of license or
no license as follows: Jefferson and
Arlington districts voting against
license and Washington district for
license. Two years later the people
did not vote upon the question, as they
were of the opinion that the law would
remain in force until voted down. A
number OF liquor sellers then applied
for license on the ground that the pro
hibition held good but two years.
They were successful and the
sale of liquor was once more legalized.
A few years later, upon the pro-
test of q number of the leading
citizens, all applications for license but
two, one at Chain bridge aud one at
Rosslyn, were rejected. When the
time came 10 license these places again
protests were made and Judge Chiches-
ter refused them or any one else license
to sell liquor in the county. The sa-
loon keepers appealed to Judge Keith,
who affirmed the d. ci!ion Of Judge Chi
chester. Near the close of the last
Legislature the excise law was passed,
in spite of the protests OF reputable citi-
zens-a law designed to meet the wish
es of all who wish to dispense liquor,
whether their character is good or bad.
Saloons are now more numerous than
ever before, and perusal of the court
proceedings will convince even disin
lerested person that disorder and MUIR
der followed as a natural consequence.
The remarks of Judge Chichester
have been received with approval by
law abiding citizens all over the
county, the general opinion being that
his language was none too severe.

DISCOVERY IN JERUsALEM.-Dr. Bliss
and Herr Won Schick, of the Palestine
Exploration Fund, writes that the iron
bound door of Neby Daud, which had
remained open against the wall for a
number of years, having recently been
blown down during a severe storm,
there was discovered on one of the
stones behind it an inscription which
seems not to have been before noticed. 1t
is in Latin, and is votive tablet to Jnpi-
ter on behalf of the welfare and great
ness of the Emperor Trajan and the
Roman people, erected by the Third
Legion, which takes us back to the in
terval between the destruction by Tit
US aud the founding of Aelia Capitolina.
1t was partly concealed by plaster, and
may have been entirely covered when
the door was last opened and shut,
which may account for it having been
unnoticed. 1t is built into the wall
about fifteen feet above the ground.
Roman inscriptions are very rare in
Jerusalem, and this discovery is there
fore of exceptional interest.-London

WHEN THE Presidents and other high
officials of railroads were satisfied with
moderate salaries, the valuable proper
tv in their control remained in their
hands, and was kept out of those of re-
ceivers. That it is not so now is by no

nous salaries are paid, there is not only
no money left for dividends, but not
enoughto pay interest on the bonds.
