Colonel NJ. Il. cutshuM.

Most of the members of the Virginia
colony in Birmingham regretted to
learn OF the death OF Colonel William
L. Cutshaw. of Richmond. which oc-
Cured iii that city Thursday night.
Colonel cutstaw had number OF
friends and acquaintances in this city,
as well as In other parts of Alabama,
and had visited Birmingham several
times. For thirty-four years he was
City Engineer Of Richmond. and was
held in very high esteem by the en-
ginecring profession. He was instru-
mental IN the establishment Of most of
the public improvements OF the Nir-
ginia capital, and contributed largely
In his efforts and influence in the lay
ing off and beautifying OF the numer-
Gus parks. driveways and other pub
lie attractions which havo made Rich
mond one Of the most beautiful cities
in America. Colonel Cutshaw distin-
guished himself as an artillery officer
in tho Confederate service, and was
widely known and loved by the veter-
ans who visited Richmond In attend
ance upon Confederate reunions since
the war. So faithful and efficient was
he in the capacity of City Engineer OF
Richmond that nobody was willing to
enter the race against him for many

The esteemed Amherst Progress
wants to know If The Times-D Dispatch
is seeking to unite the cities in selfish
compact, by which the tau burden of
the counties is to be made still heavier.
That question is unworthy of q news
paper of the character and intelligence
Of the Progress. We have repeatedly
the State would lose by the plan Of
ItnSation we have suggested, while all
but eleven OF the counties would profit
by It; and in most of the exceptional
cases the loss would he trifling. The
gain to Amherst county would be con-
siderable, for 1t, in 1906, paid into the
State Treasury on account of its per-
lscnal property tax the sum of sl,?09.2?.
while 1t drew out on account of crimi-
Inal expenses only s971.3:.
Why does our contemporary look for
ccnspiracies and hidden motives? Our
reasons FOR suggesting the plan were
plainly stated. and there is nothing
behind them. The plan was offered as
Ia remedy for inequality in assessments,
which has been standing complaint
in Virginia from time immemorial
The added reasons are that 1t would
tend to decrease crime and criminal
feXpcnses and improve the admnistra-
| ton OF local affairs.
But the Lynchburg News insists that
| il would hurt the schools. To the con-
trary, 1t would enable 30 per cent. of
appropriations to schools without in
creasing taxation. a few of the coun-
| ties would suffer by it, as we have adj
mitted, and that is the weak point in
and desirable, some way could be de-
v;sed to provide for the exceptional
cases We arc in full accord with the
News in opposing n system of taxation
which would "alienate the richer sec
| tons and cities OF tho State from COM
munity of interest and obligation with
those lacking in material wealth. No
newspaper has been more active in its
support of the public school system,
under which the richer cities and coun-
ties arc made to pay bonus to schools
| Ia the poorer counties. We have even
gone SO far as TO recommend an emer-
gency fund Cor the exclusive benefit
of those sections which arc not able
| TO provide adequate schools for their
own children. Tho Times-Dispatch is
Incapable of proposing any plan whicl,
