PRESIDENTS TRIP
NOT TO BE JUNKET
Roosevelt Refuses Invita-
tlOns TO Social Functions.
SERIOUS SIDE OF TRIP
Executive Goes South to Meet People
Because Southern People
Want Him.
SERIOUS SIDE OF TRIP

Although number OF invitations have
come TO the President TO attend BAN
quets while on his Southern trip, he has
persistently declined them ALL He gives
two reasons for refusing these functions.
In the first place the President feels
that this is not quite the proper time
for him to indulge in banqueting. Such
occasions ne deems better suited to holi-
day trips. He has just finished serious
work In connection with the peace con-
ference. and. Immediately upon his re-
turn to Washington. ne will take up
other serious matters In connection with
the approaching session of Congress.
Trip Not a Junket.
The Southern trip is not looked upon
by Mr.. Roosevelt as a junket. He il
going South because the people of that
section have been so cordial In their
invitations to him and because he Is
anxious to meet the Southern people.
In the second place the President will
do the greater part of his travelling at
night in order to save time. His only
travel during the dag viii be between
cities and towns near together at which
he viii spend only a short time. No
arrangements have been made for
overnight stops except at 81. Augustine.
Fla, where he will spend Sunday. Oc-
tober %.
The President will arrive in st.
Augustine at 6 o'clock on the evening
Of Saturday. the 21st. He will take
supper at the old fort there and will
make a shor, speech afterward- A
marine supper" something peculiar to
ST. Augustine, will be provided for
him. This is the nearest APPROACH to
a banquet the President will attend
These Requests Refused.
Every day brings to the White House
requests from the citizens of various
towns which the President win visit
that he extend the time allotted to them
All these requests are declined. as the
for the tour Is practically
made out. and Is as full as possible. The
trip back to Washington from New Or
leans by sea viii cut on two days from
the time originally allowed for the stops.
as It will take the West Virginia four
days and half to steam up the coast.

Managers of Jackson City Resort Claim Alex
andria County Is Not Legally Part of Vir-
ginia-OId Discussion Revived

Not only did the jackson City pool
room men, James LaFontaine and John
c. Nelson, open up their establishment
In open defiance of the laws of the State
OF Virginia, but they now come out and
boldly declare in habeas corpus proceed
ings before United States District Judge
Waddill, Of Richmond, that the State
has no Jurisdiction over them; that they
were brokers doing business in the Dis
trict OF Columbia, and that their arrest
by Sheriff Parsons. of Alexandria coun-
ty, was in violation OF the Constitution
and without legal authority.
In short. Nelson and La Fontaine raise
the old question OF the validity of the
retrocession by Congress to the State of
Virginia of that part of the District of
Columbia originally ceded for the Ioea-
tion of the National Capital, which now
constitutes Alexandria county. Va.
A Bold Move.
This move of the poolroom men is a
bold one, but seems TO be merely a last
dying effort to escape the sentence of
the Virginia courts. which gave them six
months in Jail and fine of $500. They
may succeed in bringing before the pub
lie one of the most interesting uues-
lions OF constitutional law ever brought
10 the attention of the United States Su-
preme Court but in the face of decisions,
IL seems that there is no way for Nelson
ana LaFontaine to escape the sentence
of thesAlexandria county courts
The claim of the poolroom men is d.
rectly In face OF the celebrated case of
Phillips VS.. Payne, which was rendered
by the United States Supreme Court on
Aprh IL. 1916. and reported in 92 United
states reports. In this case Payne.
who was tax collector for the township
OF Washington, fixed an assessment of
slto.lS upon some real estate owned by
Phillips. The latter refused TO pay. but
did so when notified that the property
would be sold pursuant to the law OF
the state pertaining to unpaid taxes.
10 prevent this sacrifice, Phillips raid
me taxes demanded, but protested that
lhe eNaction was Illegal and unauthor-
zed, as Alexandria county was not Vir-
slnla territory, but a part of the Dis
lrict of Columbia.
Swayne's Opinion.
