TAX VALUATION
TALKED IN ENSLEY
LARGE CORPORATION MAY MAKE
STATEMENT FOR JUSTlFlCA-
TIoN-FIRE DEPARTMENT HAS
FIFTH RUN OF YEAR.

Ensley May 21.-(Special)-In connec-
tlon with an interesting discussion con-
corning taxes and tax payers in Ensley,
the Ensley Land company is preparing a
statement showing its donations of sites
for churches, library and schools, and set
ting forth in a general way the work
that it has done in the building of Ems
ley as a whole. The management OF TINS
company states that they pay more taxes
in proportion to property held In the cor
porate limits than any other corporation
in the city of Ensley and the tax books
at the city hall bear out their state
ments.
Inasmuch as there has been some SEEM
ingly unjust criticism of this company in
regard to taxes, 1t is expected that the
statement will prove interesting reading
If 1t is given to the public. 1t is well
known fact that the Ensley Land COM
pany was the corporation that laid out
and plated the original Ensley and OPEN
ed up and graded the majority of the
streets. The increase in tax valuation is
one of the surest indications TO the growth
of a town, punsters to the contrary ana
a general statement of this character VIII
show in an excellent way the progress
of Ensley.
The police court had a rather heavy
docket this morning. The larger number
of the charges were for drunkenness and
disorderly conduct. The officials have de-
termined to do all in their power to sup
press this form of lawlessness, and the
Mayor imposed substantial fines IN the
cases that were convicted.
Small Fire.
The fire department responded to It's
fifth alarm for the year this morning |
shortly before 7 o'clock. A small plaze |
was discovered in the rear or Black |
barber shop, which originated in the nre
under the water heater. remarkably
olicb run was made and the flame was ex-
tinguished before it had had time tyi
spread The principal loss was In Inc |
seorching of a number of towels.

against undue influence upon the part Of
members of that branch of the govern
ment whose favor may have much to do
with the appointment to, or retention. In
public position of those whose official
action 1t is sought to control or direct.
The evils attending such a situation are
apparent and are increased when those
seeking to influence executive officers are
spurred to action by hopes of peeuniary
reward There can be no reason why the
government may not, by legislation, pro-
tect each department against such evils,
indeed, against everything from whatever
source 1t proceeds that tends or may
tend to corruption or inefficieney in the
management of public affairs. A senator
canont claim Immunity from legislation
directed to that end, simply because he Is
member of a body which does not owe
Its existence to Congress, ana with those
constitutional functions there can be no
interference If that which is enacted in
the form of a statute is within the gem
eral sphere of legitimate legislation, as
distinguished from executive and judicial
action and not forbidden by the constitu-
ton, it Is the supreme law of the land,
supreme over all in public stations, as
well as over all the people.
mo man in this country, this court

Rule of Conduct.

Nothing In the relations existing be-
tween a senator. representative or dele
gate in Congress and the public matter
with which under the constitution they
are respectively connected from time to
time can exempt them from the rule of
conduct prescribed by section 1852. The
enforcement of that rule will not impair
or disturb those relations or cripple the
power of senators. representatives or dele
gates to meet all rightful or appropriate
demands made upon them as public SER
wants.
On the question Of the right of Burton
to hold office under the government in
the future, Justice Harlan, in addition to
what has already been quoted. that part
of the sentence does nothing more than
declare the legal effect and might have
been omitted.
I'VE are of the opinion he added,
that section 1882 does not by its neces-
sary operation infringe upon the authority
or powers of the Senate of the United
States nor interfere with the legitimate
functions, privileges or rights of sem
ators."
