was plainly manifested at the polls when,
by q majority Of 618, ratio of about 6 to
1, the people declared their desire to re-
turn to the state government.
The mayor went on to say that the con-
ditions in Alexandria now are far better

Washington. He referred to Anacostia.

marked also that land was higher here

Of Washington.
Refers to Previous Efforts.
Mayor Simpson referred to previous eff
forts that had been made with q view of
restoring Alexandra to the District Of Co.
lumbia- Such an attempt had been made
soon after the close OF the civil war he
said. but 1t was signally defeated In Con-
gress- The case OF Phillips against Payne,
collector Of taxes for Alexandria county.
was cited. In this case Phillips proceeded
protest. the plaintiff holding that Alex
andria was not a part of Virginia. but be-
longed In the District Of Columbia. and
that that the act returning the territory to vir-
was carried to the Supreme Court. where 1t
was decided against the plaintiff. The
court held that Phillips as an individual
had no right to raise an issue between the
federal government and the state Of Vir-
gtnia.
In 1889. the mayor said, the matter was
again agitated. A petition was drawn up
In Alexandria and signed by many promi-
nent citizens asking that Alexandria be
again taken back into the District He
thought that almost without exception
those signers now living would emphati-
cally oppose the measure.
An Alleged Scheme.
i The mayor was asked why 1t was that
after so many years of peaceful and pros
porous dwelling. within the state Of Vir-
glnia the question of the legality Of Alex
andria's position should be raised in Con-
gress. He suggested that 1t was due to
the schemes Of a few residents who had
long cherished the idea that Alexandria
would be benefited by return to the Dis
trict. In the opinion Of the mayor sucn
expectations were extremely chimerical.
Even In the event OF extensive improve
ments in Alexandria county, following re-
procession. the mayor thought that most of
the present generation would be In their
graves before any definite advantage was
realized.
Concluding his remarks. the mayor again
laid stress on the lethargy displayed by
citizens in regard to the matter. owing, he
said to the general belief that It would
come to nothing.

The Proposed Tax on NONRESIDENT Hunters

At the recent meeting Of the Maine
SportSmen's Fish and Game Associa-
ton In Bangor the principal topic of
discussion was the proposed licensing of
non resident hunters. 1t was argued
by a majority of the speakers that
Maine Owls its game and has right to
protect 1t any way she sees fit, and as
the State is not willing to appropriate
more than $4,000 annually, which is in
sufficient, those who come to Maine
TO hunt big game should be willing to
pay reasonable tax, say so. In some
States this tax is as high as S25. The
only speaker who opposed the imposi
ton OF the tax was Charles f. Oak of
bangor, formerly a member of the fish
ana game commission. From the
sportsman's point of view he main
tanned that many hunters would be kept
away by tax. From the land owners
point OF view he argued that as they
FURNISHED the hunting grounds, they
should receive the revenue if there was
any such from tax imposed upon the
hunters. No definite action was taken
oy the association regarding the impo-
sition of a tax.
