HAD A WET" TIME IN ALEXANDRIA

While roaming around the wharyes in
Alexandria Thursday night, John Hicks,
of Fredericksburg, slipped overheard
into thiry feet of water at the Mutu-
al Ice Company's wharf, and had a
narrow escape from drowning.
Hicks had been drinking, he said, and
when he came into contact with the
chilly waters of the Potomac, he gave
forth lusty yells.
George Gary, negro, who works
around the wharves, came to Hicks as
sistance and in few minutes, he, with
others, had a big rope overheard.
Hicks grabbed at the lifeline and was
fished out. His clothes were frozen.
Policemen responded and Hicks was
soon nesting beside big fire at police
headquarters, where he was thawed out.
hicks went to Alexandria, on a visit
and appeared at police station about
O'Clock Thursday afternoon, the police
saw. and said he would like TO have the
sergeant" telegraph to Fredericks-
burg for So for him. He was directed to
the telegraph Office.

TO THE PUBLIC

Several people have asked me if my
position, in acting as counsel with Mr..
Wallace for Miss Maude Allison in her
suit for damages against the city for
losing her leg by falling through a
bridge on Main street, was conflicting
with my duties as Commemorative at
torney after Jan. lst. | wish to state
for the benefit of those who had
thought of this that the duties of the
Commonwealth attorney pertain to
representing the city in all criminal
proceedings and has nothing to do with
civil suits, such as the one brought by
Miss Allison and / can see no impropri-
ETY. in representing her in this case.
The city has an attorney, Mr.. st. Geo.
r. Fitzhugh, to defend it in these civil
suits, and ! have as much right to rep
resent a plaintiff in a civil suit against
the city as in any other case.
The duties of the attorney for the
city and those of the Commonwealth s
attorney are entirely separate and dis
tinct and in no way conflict.

WILL THE ASSESSMENT BE A FARCE

The prospective farce Of a new real
estate assessment has aroused the fears
of the Fredericksburg Free Lance.
That paper sees in the coming valua-
ton of Virginia lands and real property
the possibilities of injustice and great
loss, and urges upon the court the ap-
pointment of men who will see that the
laws of the State are enforced. AS
sessments must be absolutely equal, il
maintains, no matter who is injured.
This question of assessments is an
evil which this paper has discussed in
season and out. Every doctrine Of
economic justice, every principle Of
taxation and every cannon of financial
right is violated by the system now is
vogue in Virginia. Where there is no
controlling body, every district is a
law unto itself; every county a sep
arate and distinct unit, practically able
to fix its own tax-rate.
In the single point Of injustice, the
present method of assessing real prop
erty could hardly be worse. 1t can be
shown that real estate assessments
in Virginia vary from II to 10 per
cent. of the market value of the prop
erty. 1t inevitably follows that man
in one section Of the State is called
upon to pay three or four times as
much in taxes as another man hold
ing property of precisely the same kind
in another section of the State. A
lenient assessor will take a leisurely
ride over farm and then sit down to
eat dinner with the property owner.
He will presently decide that the prop
erty should be taxed at, let us say, 50
an acre. Another man, who obeys the
letter and spirit of the law, might
assess the same property, or similar
property in another district, at $25
an acre. For this evil there is no
present remedy. For this gross injus-
tice there is no existing recourse. The
taxpayer has to grin and endure. or
laugh and take it easy, as the case may
be.
And at the same time, as a natural
result, the State is losing money in
some districts that taxpayers in others
will have to pay. For every hundred
dollars of assessment below the market
value prescribed by law the State loses
its 80 cents of taxes. Small as is this
sum in single instance, it amounts
in the end to an aggregate that will
amaze the most careless observer. The
Times Dispatch has maintained and
stands prepared to prove that the es-
tablishment of equal assessments at
the rate fixed by law will increase the
revenues of the State by 20 per cent,
or will reduce taxes by an eqal figure.
But this iniquitous system, this relic
of days when the States business was
a political bauble, is but part of a
patchwork of tax laws that are bad
through and through. Indeed, unequal
assessments are simply natural and
logical part of an entirely unequal tax
code. To equalize assessments and not
to remedy the entire code would be
putting new wine in old bottles.
1t is not too late. By prompt,
remedial legislation and by the estab-
lishment of a competent tax commits
sion, the Assembly can assure an as
sessment for 1910 that will remove
gross injustice and give US sane, equit-
able taxation. Richmond Times-Dis-
patch.

BEAUTIFUL WOMEN .
Bad Stomach Causes Unsightly Com
plexions. GOOlrick's Pharmacy Has
a Remedy.

Bad stomachs mean bad blood; bad
blood means sallow unattractive skin.
Why? The stomach in a healthy con-
dition separates the nutritious matter
from the food and gives it to the blood
to supply the entire body with nurish-
ment.
If the stomach is not in healthy con-
dition it does not saperate from the food
the nutritious matter and it passes off
with the waste.
Thus the blood is impoverished and has
not sufficient punishment to supply the
muscles, skin and body generally.
If you have belching of gas, distress
after eating, nausea, biliousness, ner-
vousness or foul breath, then your stom-
ach is wrong and you want the best
prescription for stomach troubles the
world has ever known
You want Mi-o-na tablets, the great
stomach remedy which Goolrick's Phar-
macy guarantees to cure Indigestion
no matter of how long standing, or
money back.
Relieves stomach distress at once.
Mi-o-na is sold by leading druggists
everywhere and in Fredericksburg by
Goolrick's Pharmacy for so cents a
