COL. j. CITLETT GIBSON.
Gives the Reasons Why He Wants to 60 to
the Legislature.

In a communication to the Culpeper
Enterprise. Colonel j. Catlett Gibson
gives his reasons for wanting to 90 TO
the Legislature. Among them are follow
ing
First, To help reduce the State ex-
penses.
second. To help adopt some uniform,
efficient system OF working the roads.
Third, To help organize the school
system.
Fourth, To help TO equalize taxation.
Taxation is based on assessment. and the
comparative assessment Of the several
counties is ludicrous in the extreme.
Land is assessed in Buchanan county at
80 cent per acre. in Loudoun county at
sl4.95; horses in Grayson at sl1.S6 per
head; in Accomac at S4l; cattle IN Gray
son at s6l2 per head. in Fauquler a.
s1SO3; Henrico. $50. Assessments could
be equalized over the State by the Board
of Agriculture or by the basement oihcers
without additional expense. The trouble
is that whenever Il is proposed In the
Legislature TO equalize taxation some ici-
low comes along with big bill TO create
a big board of equalization Tor Dc sala-
ries to big politicians, and there q no
help in the Leg. stature; Ephraim is JOIN
ed to his idols. and the greatest or THESE
is the Public Treasury
Fifth. Therefore, 1 want a constitu-
tional convention. But there Is no use
of having a convention under the eN-
listing election laws.
sixth Therefore we must first and
above all correct and reform the frauds
of the ballot The McCormick
law was fair enough on its face, ana was
intended for honest administration, nut
the Electoral Board did not give the OPP
posite party a fairly honest representa-
ton on the board of judges, and TINS
law has been frauduiently used for cor
rupt purposes. In the black belt the negro
is counted for the Democratic party the
result will be that in future state con-
ventions the counted vote Of the black
belt will dominate the actual vote or the
white sections.

lot. but | object to an Australian fraud.

A special dispatch from Rlcnmohu 10
the Baltimore Sun makes the following
statement
RICHMOND. VA. oct Ex-Governor
O'Fcrrail was approached by reporter
this morning and asked 10 give MS rea-
son for ordering a military escort 10
Lunonhurg for the convicted negro MUIR
dcrers Of Mrs. Pollard, who are TO be re-
moved from the city jail next mohth.
The Governor replied that his reason LOT

same now as when he sent soldiers mere
before the request Of the Judge. the COM
monWealth's attorney and the sheiih.

he was perfectly satisfied that FEELING
continues very bitter In the county toward
the convicted negroes, and that TINS feei-
ing would be heightened in the event
that a new trial should be granted by the
Supreme Court
The Governor will receive the applause
and endorsement Of all good and conser-
vative citizens of the State for his course
in this matter. lie is right 10 prevent
lynchlng by the strong arm OF the mill
itary whenever he has reason to antici-
pate that il will be attempted. and there
Is every reason TO believe that if these
negroes were taken to Lunenburg without
military escort they would be lynched.
Violence and senselcss manifestations OF
physical force never yet accomplished any
useful end. and they never Will. The

mitted to run along in its customary
channels If this is permitted. and the
