UNCLE JERRY'S REMARKS.
The Old Man WINS Not to he Argued
Ont of an Opinion Of Long
Standing.

Uncle, Jerry lives several counties
away from the state metropolis, but
occasionally comes down to visit his
more prosperous brother, who likes to
joke Jerry because he had always op-
posed the city in pursuit of fortune.
But Uncle Jerry is good deal of talk
er himself. and when his dander is up
can say pointed things about as fast
as rapid-liring gun can throw shot.
"Well,' said the Detroit member of
the family; in a self-satisfied way, 81
guess I did pretty we'll by coming to
Detroit, after oil. l might have lived
in the country till l was hundred and
never had such fine residence and
snch horses and carriages as / have
here. Besides that, my bank account
is swelling all the time"
SOS your head" snapped Uncle
Jerry, who hates aristocratic preten-
sions worse than he does potato bugs.
After an evening spread i'm which
the chatting dish played Il conspicuous
part, the Detroit brother took another
occasion 10 air himself. his chief pur-
pose 20 ";o=h" bis rural b,.tl:cr.

hey. Jerry? Lays over your banquet
halls out at the farm somewhat? Don't
use much ware like this" as Ec toyed
with an elegant finger bowl, do you,
Jerry?" ........
Uncle Jerry swallowed a couple of
times so as to steady his voice, and then
said: "Bill, don't make chatterin'
idiot outcn yourself. We continer TO
eat in the kitchen, the back stoop or the
yard, just as we like, but we never do
our cookin' in the dinin'-room or wash
our hands ut the table jest to show off
our fine, china"
That ended the chatting Of Uncle
Jerry.-Detroit Free Press.

DELINQUENT LAND LAWS.
Two Bills Of Great Importance Offered ia
the House.

LnG '1OlSe
Senator Turnbull on Saturday intro.
duced two bills of great importance. One
provides for the repeal ..of section G66 of
the Code, rs amended by the acts Of 1906
'06, which allows any person to bl y the
lands sold for delinquent taxes purchased
by the commonwealth by .making appli-
cation to the clerk Of the court for that
purpose. The other bill provides that the
auditor of public accounts shall, as soon
as practicable after the passage Of the
bill make out list of all real estate pur-
chased by the CON monwealth, and fur
clsh the said lists to tie treasurers CT the
various counties ami cities of the State.
who shall sell the same. unless sooner re-
deemed, in the month OF September 1893,
due notice being renuired TO he given of
said sale.
The law, as it now stands, does not
provide for proper notice of applications
made to buy the lands through the clerks
and the house of delegates having failed
to pass the senate bill providing for IL
correction of this evil, and thus prevent
very many citizens of the comm on wealth
from losing their homes, if the applica-
tions which have been made should be.
come perfected, the sixty days for which
the operation of the act was suspended
Senator Turnbull that it will be best to
repeal the present law and enact in its
steau provision directing all of said
lands to be sold after sufficient notice is
given, in order to give nil who caL redeem
an opportunity to do so.
The amount now due the State for
taxes upon lands purchased by the COM
monwcalth in the various counties and
cities OF the State is, according to u state
ment made by the auditor, $55l, 800 81,
and the amount of levies due the counties
anu cities on these lands Is much greater,
as the said levies are, as n general rule
much greater than the State tax. The
sale of these lands will, therefore, nut a
large amount of money into the State
treasury, as well as in the treasures of
the various counties and cities. nd the
patron of the bill is of the opinion that
1T is better to sell these lands now, as The
longer the sale is postponed the more
difficult it will be for the persons inter-
ested to redeem them. 1t Is STATED by
Senator Turnbull that if these bills are
passed he will Introduce hill to refund
to the persons who have made apDlica-
tons TO buy the lands under the present
law all costs they have paid in making
said applications.
1t is contended, also, that it is not hing
hut just to the other taxpayers of the
State that these lands should he sold. and
the persons in possession of them made
to bear I heir proper share of the burdens
of taxation.

of the work of building could be done
with convict lahoi. Mater ials could be
gotten ready at hand, cheaper than they
could be obtsired almost anywhere else,
while the foods'uffs necessary to supply
the prisoners could be purchased more
cheaply than In any other section. South
west Virginia furnishes every year large
number of recruits for the Richmond
prison and by having one more convent
emily located no inconsiderable expense
to the State could be saved each year i'm
the way of railroad mileage. A score of
reasons could be brought forward to show
that the two prison plan is not only a
feasible one but that it could be made to
save the State expense .over the present
system. The matter is one of great mo-
ment and nothing should be done with
out the most careful weighing cf every
consideration that enters into It. To
make mistake now would be to make
it irretrie, IDLY, and for that reason we
urge the narrowest scrutiny of oil meas
ures that may be proposed, believing that
if this Is done the idea of Il second peni-
Tertiary in Southwest Virginia will be
found TO be the best that has yet. been
