The Road Tax.

Ia the case Of Alexander and Others
Tor the opening OF a new road in Chapel
District. Judge Harrison delivered an
opinion on March 81, 1905, which can be
seen on the records Of the proceedings
of the Court in that case, a part of which
reads as follow:
The special road law of Chapter o..
Acts lS761s9s. aud acts amendatorv
thereof, and acts specially applicable 10
Clarke county. are still the law. and 20
be followed in their several provisions. 90
The acts OF 1911 limited the road tax
TO cents on the hundred dollars: that
law was amended in an extra session of
the Legislature in 1854 so as to allow a
tax for as much as - cents on the hun
bred dollars. which Is now the limit. In
the face OF this law the tax PAYERS Of
Chapel District had levied upon them
for the year 1904 tax Of 90 cents. and
that amount was collected from them.

A Faithful Star.

Martin has no machine. That
Is. If we are to believe the oft-re-
peated and monotonous statement
of the Winchester Star, whose love
fer Governor Montague has assum-
eel such violent form that that es-
teemed journal seems to have lost
all sense Of reason and justice. Alas.
poor Richard. Listen to this bit of
barney:
All of his numerous appointees
are found to be lined up for the
Governor. As Senator Martin has
no appointees in Virginia he has no
material out of which he could, even
if he wished, build up a machine.
He has no men linked To him by the
tie of politicalfavor and patronage.
The men who are for him are
for him neither because of favor~
received nor favors expected.
They are for him because they ap-
prove of his record and sincerely
believe him 10 be the best man to
succeed himself"
