proximsteIy $500, 900 year in ex-
cess of their aggregate criminal
expenses. Moreover, it needs
hardly to be said that criminal ex-
penses would be materially reduced
If each county and city should be
required to pay its own bills. Such
regulation would tend 20 encrease
efficiency IN the administration of
local affairs and To make the local
authorities more diligent in their
endeavors to prevent crime.
In order to raise the money
necessary to defray criminal ex-
penses, each county and city would
have to incrase its levy on person
atty thin its brrders, but in most
cases, the increase, if not in all
cases, the increase would not be
equal TO the present levy for State
purposes, for, as already stated,
the State levy now includes 20 cents
on the hundred for general pur-
poses, 10 cents for schools, and )
cents for pensions. 1t is clear,
therefore, that on the whole the
counties and cities would gain more
than they would lose by the change.
The gain to the State, would be
in getting rid entirely of the an
noyance and cost of laying and
collecting taxes on personal prop
erty, With personal assessments
eliminated, it ought to be a COM
paratively easy matter to devise a
plan for equalizing the assessment
of lands, which is made only once
in five years.
The point may be raised that
there is constitutional obstacle in
section 1879, which provides that on
all real and personal property the
rate of State taxation shall be 20
cents on the hundred for general
purposes. But section 1S9 further
provides that after the first day
of January, 1907, the tax rate upon
said real and personal property for
such purposes shall be prescribed
by law"
The proposed change seems to
us to be practicable and in all re-
spects desirable. - Richmond

THE WEST POINT CHAIN.
IL Was Nearly a Mile In Length and
Weighed Almost 200 Tons

IL Was Nearly a Mile In lenqth and
Weighed Almost 200 Tons.
From an ironmaker's point OF view
the greatest achievement during the
Revolutionary period was the making
or the great West Point chain. This
massive chain. which has probably
never had an equal since the first ham
mer struck upon the first anvil. was
stretched across the Hudson river at
West Point to prevent the British fleet
from making q second attack upon
Kingston and. Albany. 1t was nearly
a mile in length and weighed almost
.2OO tons. many single links being as
heavy as an ordinary sized man. To
complete II In six weeks sixty men
hammered day and night at seventeen
forges. and the cost of it was placed
at 100000. 1.-The great chain is buoy
ed up" writes DR.. Tacher. ''by very
large logs. pointed at the ends TO less
en- their opposition to the force OF the
current The logs are placed at short
/ distances from each other, the chain
carried over them and made fast to
each by staples. There are also a
number of anchors dropped at proper
distances. with cables made fast to
the chain. to give IT greater stability"
No British ship passed this iron bar
rier. With its aid West Point became
the strongest military post in America
so strong that treachery was tried
where force of arms had failed. When
Benedict Arnold was plotting the sur
render OF West Point he wrote Andre
and said. Il have ordered that q link
be removed from the great chain and
taken TO the smith for repair" The
chain. however. remained in place till
the end of the war. and links of 1t are
still to be seen in the museums of AL
Dany, West Point Newburg and New
York.-Exchange.

HOW TO EQUALIZE TAXATION.

As the time of the assembling of
the Legislature approaches, the
question of equalization of taxes is
receiving its usual attention. Many
plans have been proposed from
time to time, but none that was
altogether satisfactory. In our
opinion the remedy is to be found
In a change of the system of laying
and collecting of the system of lay
ing and collecting State taxas.
The most glaring inequalities
are in the personal property as
sessments. But under the plan
which we have in mind these would
be eliminated by exempting all per-
sonal property, tangible and intan-
gible, from taxation for State pur-
poses. In 1906 the State received
from this source S4S3, 23S in :. e.
nue., of which $l37, $50 was for
schools and S33,0S9 for pensions.
Granting that she would continue
to make the same appropriations
for schools and PENSIONS under
the plan proposed, she would lose
a yearly revenue of something less
than 100000. But this in large
part could be Offset by requiring
the several cnnntieS and cities To
uay their nan crilnina! charges

but that is not 4 large item. and
The State would save the expcl,se
