Lower Court Reversed.


In tho case Of the Portsmouth Street

tor, from the Hastings Court OF tho city

Leroy l.. Peed, plaintiffs interstate,
was killed while attempting to cross
Crawford Street by a passing car Of
the defendant company. Thereupon his
administrator Instituted this action, which
resulted In the judgment under review.
The declaration has two counts-ono that
the accident was due 10 the excessive
speed Of the car: the other that 1t was
due to the failure TO provide proper
fenders. The defendant moved to strike
out the city ordinance with respect to
dence was offered to show failure OF
duty by the company In this respect. and
the court sustained the motion. There
upon defendant moved that the Jury be
instructed to disregard the second count
as there was no evidence TO support II,
and the court overruied the motion.
The appellate court held that the lower
court erred In such refusal sustaining
the second motion being corrollary TO
granting tho first. and the court erred IN
overrullng It. Other assignments Or
error relate to the rulings OF the court
as to instructions. The higher court rules
that the trial court erred In giving GER

being that the Jury could find for plain
tlff on q case not made by the de-
clarat!on. Plaintiffs second instruction Is
declared open to the same objection The

Question of Tax Liens.
In the case OF the city OF Roanoke
the Chancery Court OF the city OF Rich
nond. the priority Of liens by the city
OF Richmond and by Charles r. skinker
on certain property In Lee District IS the
question involved. The property IN 1ues-
ton was taken into the city limits In 1897
and certain grading was done thereon
BY the city under authority OF the legis-
lative enactment extending the CITY
limits. The real question involved IS the
superiority OF tax Lens to Judgment liens
upon property, and on this subject the
court says IF this were not the law
the liens upon land would often be
greater than tho value OF the land, and
the tax lien being inferior, the land
would escape all taxation. The principle
that tax lien is superior In dignity 10
all other liens upon the land on which 1t
is assessed must, upon reason as wei as
upon authority, be extended TO assess
merts by municipalities for local improve
ments. which are In the nature or q

improvements would be practically de-

(Trrom Our Regular Corresrondent.)
| WASHINGTON, =. G., June 1s-Strong
pressure will be brought to bear on the
resolutions committees Of both tile GILL.
Gag and the st. Louis conventions TO
report a plank in favor Of the government
construction Of good roads. 1t is known
that the President has considered THIS
subject very closely, but It is impossible
to learn whether or not he favors It.
Influential men. who believe that the gov
eminent should undertake the great work
OF improving the means OF rural comrlu-
rlication have urged him to advise the
incorporation of this feature In the Re-
publican platform, and these will go to
Chicago for the purpose OF influencing
the committees, which will go SO far to-
wards shaping the policy Of the party.
There will also be made a determined
and intelligent effort to have the Demo
Gratis declare for the governmental con-
lstruction Of good roads. It Is more thar
likely that both parties will have some
such plank In their platforms. The con
struction Of roads by the government Is
not a partisan question At the last ses-
sion OF Congress three bills were intro
duced appropriating money for this work,
one by q Democrat and Two by Republi-
cans. The first bill on the subject was
introduced about ten years ago BY the
late Major Peter otey, member Of Con.
gress from the Sixth Virginia Distrct.5lt
was rentroduced by Judge William ~
Rhea after the deathBof Major Otey. Sem
ator Botes Penrose, OF Pennsylvania, in
troduced similar bill some years ago,
but to Major Otey should be given tile
credit Of the first proposal in tangible
form that the Federal government under
take the work Of giving the country
good roads s5
Representative Walter Brownlow, of the
Third Tennessee District, introduced b lDlil
the construction Of roads. He is a Re-
publican. Later, Senator Latiiner, Of
South Carolina, o Democrat, and Senator
Gallingor, Of New Hampshire, introduced
bills Identical with that introduced by
Mr. Brownlow None OF the bills We're
ever reported from committee.
These bills will not have to be reintro-
duced at the beginning OF next session.
and one Of them may be reported. 1t has,
been founu that there Is objection to them
among Southern men especially, because
Of the fact that they do not make pro-
vision for the expenditure OF the money
under the supervision Of the States IN
vhich the money is to be spent. This oh
| lection was frequently urged by Repre-
sentative Lamb. Of Virginia. 1t is be-
llicved that tho bill could be SO amended
/ as to provide that State official and
local engineers should oversee the expen-
diture of the money appropriated and the
| work Of construction.
1T Is rather more than probable that
both the national platforms will declare
for roads constructed OF national expense,
| and certain that the fight for good roads
| will be renewed in Congress this winter.
