TAXES

The papers OF Virginia are nearly
unanimous In urging some new
method for the assessment OF taxes
some new scheme and plan OF assess
msnt OF values, real and persona.
In nearly every section OF the Stat.
indeed, in nearly every section OF
every county in the State, there is
great lack OF uniformity and great
inequality. The present imperative
demand is for a commission TO rem
edy this condition OF affairs. The
present plan IL both antiqua ted and
inefficient. The commissioner OF
agriculture for the year 1906, for
instance, shows that farm products
wereEorthproximately Sill 900, 900
more than the lands themselves.
The personal property il assessed
with such inequality and want oil
uniformity that it is really ridicu-
ious. The Times-Dispatch in this
connection says: sour tax system
IL farce. 1t should be reformed
through and through, and the entire
subject should be committed to q
commission composed Of wise and
discreet men that they may devise
and report g modern plan to the
next General Assembly" And the
whole State, press and people, are in
one and full accord on that subject.
1t Is one OF the mostimportant mat
ters before the Legislature. The
commission should be raised now,
and should sit IN vacation OF the
Legislature, so that some fair and
equitable plan for assessment and
taxation can be enacted into law.

JUDGE RHEA

The Legislature, after several
stormy sessions, at each Of which
some fiery debate was INDUCED in,
has confirmed the Governors APP
pointment Of Judge Rhea as a mem
Der OF the State Corporation Com
mission, and while neither the Gov
ernors appointment nor the action
OF she Legislature in confirming it
VIII give entire satisfaction, yet
when the whole matter is considered
. we are inclined to the opinion thss
the Legislature was right. Indeed,
after Judge Rhea had been nomi-
mated by the Governor, and the evil
dence against bis confirmation was
eli In, TO our mind there was
nothing left for the Legislature
to do but TO confirm. To
have done otherwise would have
been equivalent TO finding Judge
Rhea guilty Of the charges preferred
against him, when as a matter OF
fact they were hardly sufficient TO
create q suspicion. Some contend
that Judge Rhea, since he has been
acquitted, and for the good OF she
Corporation Commission, ought to
resign. In our Judgment this Is a
matter which ought to be leit entire
ly with Judge Rhea. II he feels that
he can give the people the service
which they have right to expect OF
q corporation commissioner, and II
bis work is acceptable to the people,
We see no reason. simply because he
has been subjected to an investi-
CATION, why he should quit the job.
