COL. SALES REASONS.
WHY COMMISSIONERS OF VALUA
TON BILL is CONSTIT UTIONAL.

WHY COMMISSIONERS OF VALUA-
TON BILL IS CONSTITUTIONAL.
Argument before the Supreme Court
of Appeals on the constitutlonality of
the act providing for Commissioners of
Valuation for cities and counties will
be made tomorrow. Colonel w. w.
Sales. the commissioner appointed for
Norfolk. will go to Richmond this
morning with MIR. George Pitcher and
Hon. II. Randolph Hicks. his counsel.
The brief filed by Colonel Sales coun-
sci in the case of Sale VS.. Hanckel, q
petition for Il writ Of mandamus to
compel Judge Hanckel to allow the
petitioner to qualify as Commissioner
of Valuation, answers the argument
against the constitutionality of the act.
Petitioners claim that the sections of
the bill providing for books, ETC.. to be
used by the Commissioners of Valua-
ton does not make an appropriation in
the real meaning of that word. and
further that even If the court should
decide that the act contains such an
appropriation of public moneys as re-
Qure a recorded vote by both Houses
OF the General Assembly, that such de-
feet was remedied by the subsequent
act of the Legislature III passing the
general appropriation bill, for provi-
sion is therein made for payment of all
obligations of the State not specifically
provided for. 1t is claimed that the
sections which are alleged to carry an
appropriation can be eliminated, and
the balance of the act will be consti-
tutional because of the rulings of the
Court of Appeals and other courts, that
il an unconstitutional part of an act
can be eliminated without destroying
the fundamental principles of the bill,
then the balance of the act will be en-
forced.
In answer to the allegation that the
act is unconstitutional because it de-
prives the Commissioner of Revenue Of
powers which are vested in him by the
constitution. the petitioners say that
prior to the adoption OF the present
constitution the Commissioner of Reve-
nue. assessed real estate and the peo-
pie had the right to vote for the officer
who passed on the valuation of their
real property, but no sooner had the
constitution been adopted than the Leg
islature provided for the appointment OF
real estate assessors, which was as
much in derogation of the constitu-
tional office of Commissioner of Reve-
nue. as the act for appointing Commits
sioners of Valuation of Personal Prom
crty. 1t is further urged that the Com
missioner of Valuation has no power to
assess property. but only ascertains
and REPORTS its existence to the Com
missioner of Revenue, who assesses it..

then he made! How repulsIve Will the
sinner appear in his own eyes! A lady
vocalist desired to have one of her
efforts Photographed, that she might
hear herself sing. She was accommo-
dated. When the instrument was
placed beside her she listened: soon
the color was seen coming to and going
from her cheek. Fer the piece was
half produced she buried her face in her
hands and cried, saying: 20, do /
really sing that way?''
So the sinner In that great day will
cry, saying: did really live that
way?" And the iibooks were opened"
Somehow the records of life will there
be spread out. AS the sinner there
sits, half crazed with Amusement at
himself, looking toward the Judge. he
will doubtless soliloquizc with himself
thus:
"Yonder sits the sighted Saviour,
With His marks of dying love.
Q that I had sought His favor.
When I felt His spirit move.
Golden moments!
When, saw His spirit move"
Just then the Judge turns to them
upon the left and says:
Nov, despiscrs, sit and wonder
Hope and sinners here must part
Louder than peal of thunder.
Hear the awful DOOM depart
Lost forever!
Hear the awful doom, depart"
Christ has promised for the simple
exercise OF faith in himself to blot out
these records of life. Then as we would
not have these dark lives made bare
before God, angels and men, let us
seek shelter and n sure retreat by hid
ing in Him.
