Two New Laws which Are Being
Discussed on the Comssoek with
Interest.
The Comstock lie discussing two new
laws, passed BY the late Legislature with
deep interest and much vigor. says the
Virginia Chronicle. The one law is that
which imposes g State tax. or rather . tax
for State purposes, and the other Is . law
making the payment Of the poll tax .
voters quslif oation.
The interesting feature Of the tax for
State purposes 10 that IL 10 % oents per
500. whereas 10 was but 90 cents hereto
fore. and that from the change have arisen
complications In this county. There Is .
law on the statute book limiting taxes for
oil purposes to S. per 500. There is an
other law requiring the County Commits
sioners to levy the annual taxes on or be-
fore the first Monday In March.
Before the new law, raising the tax for
State needs 10 90 cents, was passed. the
Commissioner Of this county. acting
under the latter two laws and the old law
fixing the State tax st 90 cents, made the
levy Of taxes for 1897. The levy fixed the
State tax ct 30 cents aud the total TAX ct
IS, the limit for ell purposes. Now comes
the hitch that Is creating discussion.
The raise in the State tax made by the
new law lifts the total tax In this county
10 SIS OF, two cents in excess Of the limit.
The questions presented are: Can the
S. o. be collected? Have the Commits.
sioners power 70 change the levy and
bring IL within the IS limit Does the
new law supersede the law limiting the
total tai? and how are oil parties inter-
ested TO proceed Assessors. taxpayers
and collectors.
An opinion from the Attorney General
will DO probably secured by the county
oficisls. The situation 10 puzzlins. and
the matter should be sifted down to its
actual legal status, so that the legal obi.
CATION Of the taxpayer may be made
clear.
The new poll tax law prohibits anybody
from voting at any civil election who has
not paid his poll tax for the two years
next preceding such election. Voters
must present poll tax receipts for these
two years. or they cannot vote. Voters
who do MOI pay their poll tax this year
cannos vote in 1898. This will disen-
franchise . good many voters in the State.

Judge Fitzgerald spoke in . feeling man.
ner Of the deep concern he felt in hav.
ing to send boys SO young to prison, foI
however short Q term, and cautioned
them carefully as to their future behavior.
He spoke in much the same manner 10
