OTHER PEOPLES MONEY.

The grand jury investigating the
shortage in the accounts of Walter
j. Todd, treasurer of Henrico
county, last Thursday morning
made Its report, stating:
1T appears from the evidence
that w. j. Todd, late treasurer,
applied taxes collected by him in
part and in excess of his commits
sions to his personal use and in his
private business; that he loaned
same to sundry individuals on his
personal accountant responsibility
that he placed a portion of such
funds in bank at interest and col
lected or claimed such interest as
his personal property, and that he
used funds belonging to the county
to overpay the State of Virginia
on account of State taxes which
had not been paid and had become
delinquent, apparently with the
object of realizing personally the
benefit when such taxes were paid
later of the 3 per cent. penalty for
nonpayment within the time re-
CURED by law, and that on account
of the use of such funds a deficit
was found at the time of his death.
We believe, from the evidence
before US, that the late Treasurer
had no wrongful intent in handling
the funds as he did, but on the
contrary thought he was within
his legal rights. In conclusion.
however, your grand jury desires
to place on record its decided opin-
ion that the use of public funds for
any other purpose than that fixed
by law constitutes malfeasance in
Office which would Justify his
removal"

Mr.. E. P. Reynolds.

reprint from the San Antonio,
Texas, Express the following ac-
count of the death of Mr.. +. p.
Reynolds, whose death occurred
sometime ago in San Marcos, Texas.
Mr.. Reynolds was a native of
Clarke county. The Express says:
The funeral of +. p. Reynolds
was held this morning from his late
residence in this city. The service
was conducted by Rev. II. NJ.
Whaling, pastor of the Methodist
Church. He was assisted by Rev.
Wallace Carnahan of San Antonio.
The death of Captain Reynolds
removes from Hays county one of
its most valued and prominent
citizens. At the time of his death
he was treasurer of the city of San
Marcos and a member of the board
of managers of the Confederate
Home in Austin. He was born in
Clarke county, Va, April -, 1910.
He moved TO Missouri in early
manhood, served through the Civil
War on the Southern side, where
he won distinction for bravery and
skill. He came to Hays county
soon after the close of the war.
May 10, 1876, he was married to
Miss Sarah Anna Lyell, by whom
he is survived. The following
children survive their father:
Mrs. w. I. Woodward, of Waco,
Misses Mary Randolph, Lucy Page,
Laura Franklin, Katherine and +.
z. Reynolds .Jr., all of San Marcos.
Captain Reynolds was one of the
best Informed men in the State,
not only in general history, but
In all forms of polite literature.
As writer he has achieved con-
siderable note. The beautiful
description of the San Marcos River
published in the Southwest Texas
Normal catalogue is the polished
product of his pen.
Captain Reynolds took an active
and honorable part in all move
ments for the general good.
The honorary pallbearers we're:
Capt. j. G. Storey, Capt. Ferg
Kyle, Judge w. d. Wood, Judge
S. Fisher, Col. Ed. j. l.. Green,
Hon. George T. McGehee, Esquire

were: John E. Pritchett, DR.. Roger

was one of the largest ever seen
here, which testifies to the esteem
in which the deceased as well his
cultured family, are held.

ufactured in this country, besides
the millions for what is imported.
The tariff tax on such articles of
adornment increases the price of
millinery, more than 50 per cent
on the average, for the manufac-
turers are protected by the tariff
tax which is collected on imported
millinery, so that they can add to
the price of the home product
about what the imported articles
have,to pay at the Custom House.
Every woman therefore is inter-
ested in the tariff question, for
hats and bonnets are increased
quite SO per cent. If the present
tariff rates on millinery were re-
duced to 20 per cent, the women
of the country would save nearly
one-third of what they now pay
for such articles, whether imported
or made in this country, for the
price of the American manufacture
ed goods would have 70 decline to
meet the reduced cost of the inn
ported aaticle. 1t would be tedi-
Gus to give all the tariff rates on
hats and bonnets, or the many
articles that go into the hats and
bonnets, that are made up in this
country, but the tariff tax runs
from so to 20 per cent of the cost
of the articles in the country from
which they are imported so that if
a hat cost $40 in Paris, the tariff
tax on it is from s. 10 81, and as
the cost is often much greater than
this therefore the tariff tax is so
much greater in proportion.

SENATOR BAILEY'S TRIUMPH.

Speeches on political subjects
delivered in the United States
Senate are said to but seldom change
the votes of Senators. The for
ensic ability of Senator Bailey
and his unanswerable argument
that Congress has the power to
prohibit the inferior federal courts
from issuing temporary injunctions
against the enforcement of orders
of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, proved one of the excep-
lions. Senator Hale, political
opponent, acknowledged that he
and other Republicans had been
convinced by Senator Bailey's
arguments that the power to re-
strict the courts was inherent in
Congress.
No Senator of the present day
has such record to boast of, and
tits a personal and political triumph
that lifts Senator Bailey to the
pinnacle of fame as a Democratic
orator, debater and Constitutional
lawyer.
