ASSESSMENT SET ASIDE
Appellate Court Reverses De.
cision of Lower Tribunal
in Street Extension Case.

Declaring that prior dedications of land
for portion of a street extension are to
be considered by jury of condemnation
in assessing benefits. and that failure to
do so vitiateSthe assessment, the Court of
Appeals of the District of Columbia in an
opinion by Mr.. Justice Van Orsdel sets
aside the judgment of the District SUI
preme Court, which had confirmed a YER
dict of a jury for the extension and
widening of Colorado avenue from Long
fellow street to 10th street.
The error cannot be corrected, the court
said, by reversing the Judgment in part
as new assessments should be made, TAX
ing into consideration the dedications
which might change all the other assess
mentS and cause a reapportionment
among the properties found to be bene-
fitted.
The appeal was prosecuted by the
Lynciburg Investment Corporation and
the Holmes Central Realty Corporation
which had dedicated land valued at Si6,o0t
for the opening Of other portions OF the
street.

BY TOLL AND SACRIFICE
GIVES $4,000 TO CHURCH
Julia Colon, a Domestic, Leaves
Fund, by Will, to Build
New Edifice.

HUDSON, Ohio, February 26.-By years
of saving and self-sacrifice Julia Colon,
domestic in the home of Harvey Bauld-
win, who died recently, was enabled to
turn over to ST. Mary's Catholic Church
here the sum of $4,000 for new church.
The woman's will was admitted to pro-
bate and the money turned over to the
church authorities, who will tear down
the present frame house of worship and
build a new one with the bequest.
For almost twenty years Miss Colon
was employed by the Baldwin family.
and during that time she was a devout
attendant OF the Catholic Church
Through the strictest economy and life
of self-denial she was able to save most
of her weekly wages and put the money
in the bank. The sum grew, and a year
ago reached a total of more than $4,000.
While visiting at the home of a relative
in Kent few days ago she became i'll
and died. She left a. will which left the
sic, COO to the church and small requests
to relatives.

RESIDENTS OF VIRGINIA
URGE BUILDING OF CANAL
Many Advantages Claimed in Pro.
posed Waterway From Bay
to Ocean.

ACCOMAC COURTHOUSE. Va. Feb
Northampton counties are urging the con-
struction of a canal from the Chesapeake
bay to the Atlantic ocean in the neighbor-
hood of Wachapreague.
Farm products and fruit to be bene-
fitted by such a waterway amount to
100000 tons annually. Lumber. wooden
ware and similar products are almost
profitless because of heavy transportation
tolls 1t is urged that the canal would
be advantageous to the lower counties of
the eastern shore of Maryland as well
as to Virginia and the large southern
area which finds its transportation outlet
a Norfolk. The DANCE of ocean trans
poTtation would be greatly lessened by
this waterway.
At Ocean City Nd. and at Chinco-
league Va. are located large fishing in
tereStS whose shipments run up into the
thousands of tons annually. At Wacha-
preague, the point at which it is proposed
to locate the ocean terminus Of the cana.
there is u large business in fishing and
oysters.
Sailing vessels, now compelled to round
Capes Charles and Henry, would save
not less than 200 mics by the proposed
canal which would unite sea and bay
by about twelve niles of channel. Steam
ers plying between Baltimore and
northern ports would materially reduce
costs by cutting off SO large n pcrcentaG sc
of trave! as 100 miles each way. The
bay terminus of the canal is projected
at PungoteaSue creek, near Onancock,
which has deep water al the way to TIE
bay. The tide is not over four and a
half feet difference
The cost of the waterway is estimated
at 81. J00,G90 with a breakWater at sea.
100000 additional. The const. uction is
preferred by the United States govern
ment as free canal, except to foreign
vessels. If the government will not un-
dertake the project it is proposed that
Maryland and Virginia cooperate.

insufficient Publication.

The Appellate Court holds that the pres
ent method of advertising notice of land
to be condemned for street extension does
not comply with the law, which requires
publication in three daily papers for at
least twenty days. The District and the
lower court have interpreted this to mean
a publication which begins twenty days
before the Gay set for appearance in court
and they have advertised six times within
tha- period.
Justice Van Orsdell says the law clearly
requires that notice shall be published in
tn: ee daily papers for at least twenty
days. and the requirement cannot be
satisfied by six or any other number OF
insertions less than daily for the twenty
days.

Gets idea Wrong

The Aberdeen correspondent Of the
Hoquiam Washingtonian errs wheI
he quotes the editor of the Herald
as having abandoned the effort tc
have this city adopt the modern, com
mission form Of government. The
fact is that, as member Of the re
cent citizens committee, having occa
sion to delve into the workings Of
the various departments Of the city
we are more than ever impressed
with the necessity Of changing the
present wasteful system to the bes,
that offers. That is the commission
form at present.
The Herald has no desire to force
anything upon an unwilling people
but stands ready. as ever. to assist
in securing more efficient and less
costly city government whenever the
public signifies desire for the
change. The need Of city manager
for cities of this size is evident to
all who study methods. and this we
could have under the provisions Of
the Allen law, but may not under the
law we are operating under now.
' Even with a commission; 1t requires
no argument to convince q fair
minded citizen that three men, at q
cost of $500 a year, devoting their
entire attention to the city's business
would be cheaper than $4,1O0 a year
to 10 men working on the job few
hours each week.

r,!neome.Tax Comparisons

AS the Senate caucus arrenged it,
the income tax is one per cent on in.
comes above three thousand dollars
and below twenty thousand. with one
per cent additional on incomes be.
tween twenty thousand and fifty thou
sand, the progressive surtax rising by
steps until it becomes six per cent on
incomes above half a million Sena-
tors Lodge, Root and others strongly
opposed this progressive surtax as an
unjust discrimination against wealth.
We had an income tax during the
sixties, the rates being changed sew
eral times. The law of 1862 imposed
rate of three per cent on incomes
above six hundred dollars and five per
cent If the income exceeded ten thou.
sand dollars. The law of 1864 impos-
ed tax of five per cent on incomes
between six hundred dollars and five
thousand, seven and a half per cent
on incomes between five thousand and
ICu tuOuodAu ouU tCu pei CCuI Ou oil
above ten thousand.
The pext year this was changed to
ten per cent on all above five thou
sand dollars, which stood until 1867,
when a fat rate of FIVE per cent was
imposed on all incomes above one
thousand dollars.
In short, the Civil War income tax
was far heavier than this one and went
much farther in the direction of lay.
ing the heavier burden on the larger
income. The justice of taxing large
incomes at a higher rate than small
ones was as earnestly debated as in
this year Of grace and with substan-
TALLY the same arguments pro and
con.
Some insurgents in the House want.
ed to tax big incomes twenty-five per
cent. Some conservatives in the Sen
ate declared that any progressive tax
was mere robbery Of the thrifty. 1t is
an old fight and the end Of it Is not
in sight.-Saturday Evening Post.
