islators of Virginia last winter. Governor
Kitchiu has evidently given careful study to all
matters of Importance throughout the State and
in his comprehensive message has suggested re-
medal measures for which the citizens have
been clamoring many months
Governor Kitchin recommends that the pro-
posed income tax amendment to the Constitu-
ton of the United States be ratified by the Leg
islature. This amendment was rejected by the
Virginia House and passed by the Senate, There
are many large incomes in North Carolina, and

The Tar Heel Governor goes right after the
trusts in his message, and al the start recon-
mends the enlargement and broadening of the
States powers to control corporations. He sug
gests that the trusts be boycotted as far as pos
sible by the State government. and that when
supplies are needed Independent concerns be
given the preference

DEIINQJ ENT TAXES.

The man who goes to war and bares his breast
to showers Of lead has no corner On patriotism.
There are other less spectacular ways OF mani
testing loyalty. and among them is keeping the
native State out Of the poor house.
In this season of financial stress in Virginia,
when the Commonwealth faces large deficit,
which demands economy and consequent imped-
ing of the splendid progress which has charac-
teriged the Old Dominion for more than gene
ration it should be regarded by each and every
citizen as Il duty to give his best aid toward
sustaining the program OF advancement. Wheth-
er ne does or not is. in most instances, for him
to determine.
Auditor Donohoe. the man who, seeing as he
does the states income and outgo daily is in
probably the best position to speak about the
States finances, says Virginia needs the money
and he is bent on replenshing the welldraned
Golfers. Mr.. Donohoes decision to make every
possible effort to collect 100000 in delinquent
capitatton taxes due the State is praiseworthy
and We wish him success
It is no slight reflection upon the citizenship
Of Virginia for 1t to pc said that every year
100000 in captation tax is not paid. The
law restraints the Auditor from levyng for this
TAX for three years. but at the expiration of that
period he may proceed to the collection. Din
Guilty is encountered by reason Of the fact thai
the collectors receive but 20 per cent of this
money. and are often required to travel long dis
tances to reach the delinquents ana then fail o

-FOUR DOZEN PERSONS
( TREATED FOR RABIES
MANY VICTIMS OF DOG BITES
AVAIL THEMSELVES OF FREE
STATE DISPENSARY.

Forty-eight persons received free
treatment for rabies at the State Pas
teur department during the last six
months, according 10 a report sub
mitted at the semiannual meeting
of the State board OF health. Health
conditions, as rule, were reported
TO be improving. Epidemies during
the year were reviewed by the board
but no statistics were given out.
Reports estimated that the number
Of tuberculosis cases had been re-
duced to $3.50. 1t WAS stated after
the meeting that typhoid had also
been reduced.
From the meteorological depart
ment, 1t was learned that ALSO ex-
aminations were made during the
year.
The board received and approved
a report from committee appointed
at a previous meeting, which recon-
mended that local health officers be
paid salaries instead OF fees. this sys-
tenn being regarded as the more sat-
isfactory.
The statistical report from Cataw-
ba shows that OF the forfy-six cases
discharged as cured or arrested dur
ing the year 1910 there has been no
relapse.
Although the press is not admitted
into their meetings. one OF the ply
sicians reported that the newspapers
are the best friends OF the people.

SUPPORTING RECREANT
WOMAN

Especial to The Richmond Virginian.)
NORFOLK. VA, Jan. b.-JudEe
Hanckel has ruled that because a wo-
man plays cards or CANDLES in other
ways Is no excuse on the part of her
husband to refuse to provide for her.
The court said a man is bound to
provide. even though the wife gam
hes away money that her husband
gives her. "A man Is not compelled
to give his wife money" said the
court, but he Is compelled to give
her something to eat and a home in
which to live. no matter how much
che is addicted to card playing or
skin games
The question arose in the case of
Frank Phillips. a negro from Berk-
ley, indicted to-day for failure to pro-
vide for his wife. The woman, Quee-
ME Phillips, said her husband had not
provided for her since Thanksgiving.
rha-taaH~ saits-.f,is WIS trrTs but MS
refusal to provide was because his wife
had frequented gambling joints In
South Norfolk and wasted all the
money that he gave her at craps and
other gambling games.
Il told her | would do better for
her II she would stay away from these
places, but she kept on gambling
away all the money ! gave her, and
| did not think 1t right for me to
have to keep on giving her money TO
gamble away with other men," said
Phillips.
IT'S a new law that a man can re-
fuse to provide for his wife because
she has such bad habits as this" said
Judge HanekeL in answer 70 argument
of counsel for The defendant. and the
court said Phillips would have to pay
his wife So per week

RAD TRAIN SERVICE.

Railroad schedules enter vitality into the bust
ness life of almost every citizen of Virginia, and
when announced by road the greatest care
should be exercised in running trains according
to the times mentioned, When a passenger ar
rves at a station in a city few minutes late he
finds that he has been left He Is told that it is
his fault, that he knew the scheduled hour of
leaving and should have been there on time The
railroad has a right to make this answer to the
complaint The citizen who lives along a SUI
burban road also has the right to demand that
when trains are booked 10 pass certain stations
at certain times. the schedules be adhered to
Just as the passenger is compelled to be in a
city station ON time if he wants to catch his
train
In another column We print communication
in which complaint is made of the lateness of
local trains and the running of through trains
past stations on the platforms of which stood
many persons anxious to reach junction that
they might make connections for distant points.
The Richmond FngintGm has received many
similar complaints, more than one of them being
from persons whose business is in the capital
city and whose daily life is a matter of uncer-
tainty. because of the failure of trains to run
on anything like schedule time
The railroad companies have no right to com.
pei passengers to stand on platform an hour
or more waiting for late train. unless an &C
cident or some other unforeseen circumstance is
responsible for the delay.
The Tirginian's information is that in the OPP

sections are run separately making two or more
sections and the accommodation thrown in be-
hind. as if il mattered but little when business

When the Hudsons Bay Trading Company
began its trading among the Indians II was
found that by selling the Indians liquor they
could more easily be induced TO trade their
peltries.
The first whiskey intoxicant of interior
quality was distilled In England and brought 10
America in large barrels, but In transporting
it overland 1t found more convenient to
divide it into small kegs. The traders soon
became aware OF the fact that by diluting the
whiskey with water more furs could be OBJ
tanned. This practced for some time, but
the Indians learned that good whiskey poured
on a fire would 1t to flare up. whereas

Accessions TO the ranks OF The aVlators have

Late Trains.

Editor OF The Richmond Virginian:
Sir,--The poor train service L wrote about
some weeks ago continues and grows worse.
The oldest inhabitants" duly interviewed,
never knew anything like Ii. For uniformity
OF lateness have never seen the equal OF what
we are treated with now.
II the delays were caused by accidents, this
road would have been bankrupt long ago. 1t
must be from bad management. When one
considers the amount OF time alone wasted each
day at every station along a long road IL ID

the people much more than the IL cents

comfort, annoyance, exposure and interference
with all plans. and It becomes a most serious

THE exasperating part of the matter. how

way officials to minimize the Inconvenience
caused. They seem not to care TO do anything.
