DEATHS.

Rev. Perry A. Leatherbury died at

al contributor to all church work in
his denomination. For many years
he was active as o local preacher.

Accidentally Drowned.

Capt. Zebedee t. Marshall, Of this
county, while on his way from the
Potomac river to his home near Gull
ford, last Saturday, fell overheard
from his bateau and was drowned. A
boy was with him and witnessed the
drowning but WAS unable to handle
the batenu and could give him no as
sistance. The boy thinks that in at
tempting to 20 to the bow OF the
boat that he stumbled and fell over
board. Capt. Marshall was clever
and popular young man, and his
untilnely death is deeply regretted
by everyone in the community in
which he lived. He was about 80
wears old. a reward for the recovery
of his body has been offered by his
father and brothers.

to $50, 1000 a year. There is no ust

to $50, 1000 year. There is no use
for u large, deep draft, expensive
steamer like tie Chesapeake; she is
expensive and useless for shallow
water work; she cost about $4,000
and is expensive to run. The first
oyster navy cost 100000 and three
efficient steamers were built for the
money. There is no reason why the
oyster navy should not be put on an
economical footing, and the people
relieved of an onerous tax.
There is no reason why oysters
should be taxed. and minerals OF the
State go free of tax; and it should be
the duty of the Constitutional Con
vention to see to it that both be put
on an equal footing. There is power
enough in salt water Virginia to
take care OF her oyster interests, If
exercised. The oyster beds belong to
people who live adjacent to them;
and that should be put in the funda-
mental laws, with the State as trustee
to hold the oyster grounds for those
people. If that cannot go in, then
the salt water representatives should
see to 1t, that it shall be the duty Of
the legislature under the new con-
stitution, to levy tax on the min
erals OF the State, in proportion to
their value; which are now prac-
tically free of taxes, only paying
about 5000 year. We cannot con-
troll our income, but we can fix our
expenses; and the expense of the
State government on both oyster
men, and farmers, should be reduced,
and a Constitutional Convention
only can do it.
Yours truly,
ORRIs A. BROWNE.

Fence Question.
Yours truly,
ORRIs A. BROWNE.

MR.. EDIToR:-I wish to call atten-
ton of the people of Accomac county
to one OF the great sources OF ex-
pense they are put to yearly by rea-
son OF lack OF energy or foresight
on the part of the taxpayers. / refer
to the fence law which believe Is
now In force. What are the results ?
Every other man you may talk with
in Pungoteague district says frankly
they would be better Off with no
fence. Nevertheless the old, easy,
happy go-lucky way which charac-
terzes the South, the idea that what
was good enough for our granddadies
is good enough for US, still prevails,
and no one is ready to put his hand
to the pillow to remedy the evil.
Now, l ask you, are we always to
live MS our ancestors did when cir
cumstances were far different? Is it
not an age of progression in all the
arts and sciences and are we of Acco-
mac to stand still and vegetate? l
ask any OF my readers, think a fair
question, when l ask, il you were
going to change your residence and
should drive through q portion OF
the country where you saw hogs and
cattle roaming the streets at large,
hogs roofing up your roads, your
CEN eteries, your church yards, bask-
in the sun at your store doors, the
bitches always full of filth and stag,
nant water, and roads any time Of
the year full of hog wallows, and
then should pass into an adjoining
county and see the roads smooth and
free OF holes, fences down and farms
nicely titled to the edges, sidewalks
passable and church yards green and
smooth, l ask you fairly, which
place would you choose for home?
Some will say, no-fence law will
hurt John Smith for he has no pas
ture for his stock. To such say,
such an argument is puerile. If John
Smith has no barn for his horse have
| got to build him one? Am COM
PEELED to fence and pay taxes on land
for my neighbor who has no land, TO
raise Il large herd OF cattle or sheep
upon? Others say, that upon the
bayside there are large marshes of
good grazing land. To such l would
ask, if half dozen neighboring
farmers wish to Craze their cattle on
these marshes, how much would it
cost these men to hire some boy to
herd them and drive them into n
corral at night? Would not that be
better than to put hundreds to trou-
BILE or expense? Last fall the road
machine worked the roads in our
district and left them in excellent
shape, also laid out some new roads.
What are they to-day? a mass Of
hog wallows, and look as though
some boy had been practicing pillow
ing on them. / claim that one-half
the expense of working our roads
could be saved by passing law
keeping all cattle and hogs off from
them. Now can we not take some
concerted action during these hard
times and try to make them better
by curtailing unnecessary expense?
should like to hear from our tax
payers on the subject.
Yours for improvement,
