Peninsula enterprise. [volume] (Accomac, Va.) 1881-1965, 1902-07-05

The list of candidates for member
ship on the Corporation Commission
continues to grow and according to
the latest reports there are 10 per
sons in the State, who, in their own
opinion at least have the honesty
and ability TO discharge its manifold
obligations in a way that will be
creditable to themselves, with justice
to the corporations and in the best
interest of all of the people OF the
State. Included in the list, 1t Is
stated, are men from every town and
city almost, men in every position
and some without occupation, many
widely known in the affairs of the
State and others obscure with mereN
w local regulations. With the mum
Der yet to be added during the next
year the Governor ought to have no
trouble in filling the positions. 1t is
to be hoped, though, in matter OF
so much importance to all the people
of the State, that he will have the
courage to reject the whole list if he
can find better men outside of it.

The new Constitution in an
abridged form but containing all OF
the main features of the new in
strument occupies much of our space
to-day. 1t is worthy OF careful
perusal by our readers and will, We
believe, receive the true and loyal
support" of the most of the Demo
Gratis, at least, which Governor
Montague in his proclamation pro-
mitigating it calls upon all of the
people of the State to give it. 1t
will go into effect Thursday, July
10th and doubtless receive the re-
cognition of the General Assembly
which convenes ten days later. That
there will be any hitch in putting it
into effect no one believes seriously,
not even the Republicans who have
threatened to attack it.

The accident to the young maD,re
ported elsewhere in our columns,
which mains him for life, it Is to be
hoped, will be warning which will
not be UNDECIDED by others, who
daily along the line ofthe N, Y. P. Il
N. r. R. indulge in the same sport in
which he was engaged and which re-
suited so seriously to him. Every
body of course sympathizes with
him but that will not restore the
member which be has lost. He was
fortunate perhaps that he did not
lose his life and others will if they
continue to persist in the folly of
jumping trains for the amusement
they find in it. The folly of it ought
even to occur to boy, however full
of life and energy he may be, if be
will consider for a moment the risk
he is taking without any hope or ex
pectation of reward.

The second session of Drummond-
town Academy begins September
10th. and in making the announces
ment, it is gratifying to us to be abe
to state, that the principal secured
for the Academy for the next session
is a distinguished graduate of one OF
the best colleges in the State, has
proven himself to be an efficient and
successful teacher, and is highly rec
commended for his "blameless reputa-
ton and high christian character.
That he is in every way competent
to discharge the duties for which he
has been selected there is no douoi
in the minds of the trustees VINO
have engaged him, and with that
confident belief in his fitness, speak
ing for the trustees, we solicit ana
will expect the liberal patronage OF
the public. The terms will be an
nounced next week and will be so
liberal as to be within the reach OF
everyone, and as the trustees pro-
pose to engage an assistant OF the
patronage justifies it, it is tc be
hoped, that the names of the pupils
who propose to enter the school will
be handed to them as early as posi-
bic. The efforts of the trustees to
establish school of high grade, IN
which our children can receive
liberal education and be prepared
for college at home, certainly de
serves to be sustained by our people

Taxation and Finance.

The old restriction upon the Gen
eral Assembly which requires that
taxation shall be equal and uniform
is removed 1t is not intended that
equality in the true meaning of the
word shall be sacrificed, but that
the way shall be left free for
imposing taxes upon a principle of
equality measured by the ability of
the taxpayer. AS a check, however,
upon the will of the General Assem-
bly,, it is provided that taxation
shall be uniform upon the same class
Of subjects within the territorial lin
its OF the authority levying the
same. Classification is permitted,
but uniformity must be observed in
the class.
Franchise taxes are authorized, and
it is provided that when the franchise
and all the other property of a cor
DC ration are taxed the shares of
stock, which are nothing but GER
tificates OF ownership, shall not be
taxed.
1t was found impossible to devise a
plan of correcting Immediately in
equality in the assessment prop
erty, but, looking to the application
of a remedy in the future, the Cen
eral Assemb is authorized to segre-
gate subjects OF taxation for State
and local taxation.
A system of railroad and canal tax
alton to continue period of 10 years
is provided in detail and is expected
to at once increase the revenue from
that source over 100000 Another
large increase will be effected by
curtaIling the property now exempt
from taxation.
A prominent feature of the article
is the reduction of the existing State
tax rate from 40 cents to 80 cents on
800, but the rate after the first day
of January, 1907, is to be within the
legislative control.
La the language of q leading mem.
Der Of the committee which framed
this article, and who il also the ex
perienced chairman of the Finance
of the present House of
Delegates, lit is certain that the net
result will be the addition OF large
amounts of annual revenue to the
State and a more equitable appor-
of the public burden"
Other Matters.
The General Assembly is given full
power to enact local option or die
pensary laws or other laws relative
to the manufacture or sale Of liquor.
The homestead exemption is not to
be claimed or held in shifting stock
Of merchandise.

With respect to public corpora
tions, such as railroads and telegraph
companies, its functions are varied
and comprehensive The general de-
sign is that this tribunal shall make
sure that the powers conferred on
these corporations are properly used
and not perverted to the injury of
the people. To this end the commits
sicn is clothed with ample authority
to inquire into and prevent neglect
and oppression of the people by pub
lie corporations in the matter of ser
vice, rates aud facilities, the right of
appeal to the Supreme Court being
allowed.
Every corporation hereafter char
tered by or doing business in the
State will be required to register
once a year with the commission and
pay small annual fee of about So.
This is in order to keep track of cor
porations in the State and to defray
the expenses of the commission.
The well-known ''long and short
haul clause" is embodied ia this ar
ticle with notifications in the line
of efficiency and to prevent injustice.
all public officers are prohibited,
under penalty of forfeiture of office.
to accept or use any free pass or
telegraph or telephone frank.
An employers liability act is made
a part of the article, relieving the
harsbness of the "fellow-servant doc
trine' as applied to railroad en-
ployes.
The right is secured to railroad
companies to construct any line,
whether it parallels an existing line
or not, and TO intersect or connect
with any other railroads. The inn
portance of this provision to the
general public aud to particular com
munities is obvious.
To insure publicity and prevent
evils now so common every corpora
ton is required to report TO the COM
mission all issues of stocks or bonds,
with "A statement of the basis or fl
nancial plan of the issue.
No article of the Constitution has
attracted more attention than the

Executive Department.

In response to what seemed to be a
widespread demand provision is
made for election by the people of
several officers now elected by the
General Assembly, including the
Secretary of the Commonwealth and
the Treasurer.
The General Assembly is required
to establish an efficient system of
checks and balances for the execu-
tive Offices to prevent losses of the
public revenue.
The powers of the Governor are in d.
creased and strengthened. He can
suspend for misconduct any of the
general executive officers except the
Lieutenant Governor; he can require
information from any such officer or
the head OF any State institution
and examine into the condition of
the office or institution, calling to
his assistance expert accountants; he
can veto any item of an appropria-
ton blu without rejecting the entire
measure, and he can return a bill to
the General Assembly with d sug-
gestion of amendment, and then
when it reaches him again, amended
or unamended, pass upon it finally.
This tentative disapprova of a bill
is believed to be now introduced into
American constitutional law for the
first time. Whenever the General
Assembly adjourns in less than five
days from the passage of bill it will,
Notwithstanding, become a law if
signed by the Governor within 10

Corporations.

This article is entirely new.
Provisions CORES bonding with
those in the article on the legislative
department are made for granting
charters under general and not by
special laws. The General Assembly
will say what sort of corporate priv
leges may be obtained in Virginia,
and the Corporation Commission
will issue charters accordingly TO
those who apply without delay and
at little expense.
The Corporation Commission is to
be composed of three persons APP
pointed by the Governor, one of
whom shall have the same qualiiica
tions prescribed for judges of the
highest court. They are to hold
office for six years, but those first ap-
pointed hold for different periods. so
that their successors will be appoint
ed at intervals. The minimum salary
is to be $4,000. With respect to
strictly private corporations the
functions of the commission are few
and simple. So far as they are con
cerned, it only issues and amends
charters and sees that such annual
reports are filed as the statutes may
require.
