DR. rRvINE,s TRIAL
TWENTY YEARS AGO.
One Of the cIersynaen on the Board
Says Girl Failed 70 Estah;iss1
Exact Charge.

CHICAGO. H. Dec 30.-The Rev.
l. N w. Irvine. according TO informa-
ton made public in Chicago. was tried
by commission of Episcopal clergy
men on charges OF untruthfulness and
immortality at Quincy, twenty years
ago Bishop Burgess presented the
charges. and the trial board was COM
posed of the Rev John Wilkinson.
then of Galesburs- the Rev. William
H. Sparkling, formerly Of Genesco. ana
the Rev. ]. NJ D. Davidson. now e
city missionary In Chicago.
Irvine went to Quincy about 1851.
wftk his wife and two children Miss
Seabury. niece of Mrs. Irvine, was
resident OF Quincy and was married
there Soon after her marriage she
gave her husband information re-
aecting on Irvine. Il was this charge
which was made the basis OF the
church trial. Referring to the sub
ject. DR.. Davidson is reported in an
interview as saying:
The trial took place before the
Bishop in the chapter room of TIE
Cathedral and caused great sensa-
ton It lasted the better part of two
weeks. The only witness to the
charge was the young woman herself.
The girl. who was extremely simple
hearted. gave Testimony which.
while not establishing the exact
charge. made It clear that Irvine was
culpable. There was difference OF
testimony principally as to the date.
The charge OF untruthfulness was.
however. established. Our verdict.
therefore, found Irvine guilty of I'M
truthfu1ness without qualification. and
sustained the charge OF immortality as
to the fact, but not as to the date.
During the trial another piece OF evil
dence came out. OF which we could
take no cognizance because no
charges OF the nature was named in
the presentment. A doctor testified
that Irvine had sought his assistance
to have Miss seabury placed in an In
sane asylum"
Mr.. Irvine was suspended for one
year. Bishop Burgess left the bishop
rlc. never TO return and died IN 1901; s.
the woman whose name was linked
with that Of Irvine left Quincy and Is
now dead.

subject of income tax in Virginia and
showed by the auditors report that the
total revenue from this source in 1909
was $642 Is. and that in several coun-
ties no income tax whatever was even as
Sessed. while in most Of them the amount
was ridiculously small. The auditor. $
report for 1908 does not show much i'm
provement over that Of 1902 The total
income tax assessed in 1903 throughout
the entire State amounted 10 $40. sO06l,
of which the counties paid $40. 63l 81.
and the cities SOL ,O69.30 In other
words, the eighteen cities in the State
paid nearly three times a much income
tax as the hundred counties The coun-
ties, of Amelia, Bland. Buchanan. Car
roll, Charles City. Essex. Fluvanna.
Greyson, Greene. Highland. James City,
King George. King and Queen. Lee.
Mathews, MiddieSeN, Patrick, Russell.
Scott. Spotsylvania and Stafford re-
turned not dollar on the income tax
account. According TO this report we
are to believe that there is not a tax
payer in any one of those counties who
has an income exceeding 5000 a year.
Only four counties in the State Abe
m ,rle, Henrico, Tazewel and wise-re-
turned as mush as 81 600 in income tax.
Henrico heads the list with - .053. while
the county of Wise comes next with :. -
O4S.29; Caroline returned s.. Dickinson
81; Sussex $3.50. WestmorelanG 81.
The county of Prince Edward. which
l. not regarded as one Of the wealthicst
counties in the State by any means re-
turned $4,000, while the county of Nor
folk. in which the great trucking inter
est is carried on. returned S333.30.
The city of Richmond returned on
this account $26.199.G9. which was near
ly s., 600 mare than the income assess
mcnt Of all the counties in the State. and
was twice as great SIS the income assess
ment against all the other cities in the
State. The city IF LynchburC was as
sessed S6,664Gj. while the city OF Nor
loIN was assessed S3,sO5O0. The whole
amount Of income tax assessed against
the negroes of the commonwealth was
$3.50.
We again direct attention to this sub
ject by way of showing that the income
tax in Virginia is almost farce. and
some measures should be taken TO en-
iorce the assessment and collection on
This account. else the whole system
should be abolished. Ii Is manifestly
unequal aud unfair. as the assessment
now goes, and doubtless many men de-
cline TO give in an income tax because
they know that the great majority Of
taxpayers ignore il together-Rich-
