RAILROAD IS LEFT
ON COUNTY'S HANDS
GOVERNOR STUART vEyrOEs BILL
TO EXEMPT ROAD FROM
TAXATION.

Governor Stuart yesterday vetoed
a bill passed by the general assem-
bly,, allowing the board Of supervisors
OF Franklin county to exempt from
taxation the Franklin and Pittsyl-
vania railroad. After careful con-
sideration by the attorney general
and the governor, 1t wee found that
the bill was unconstitutional, and the
chief executive refused to sign 1t.
The history leading up to the IN
PRODUCTION Of the bill Is unique as
we'll as interesting, as by the defeat
of the bill 1t will probably eliminate
In the operation of the railroad by
the county Of Franklin, making 1t
the first case in the history OF the
United States where q railroad Is OPP
Grated by a county.
The road in question operates be-
tween Franklin Junction and ROCKY
Mount, Va, and all OF the STOCK,
which amounts to about s4o0,0oo, Is
owned by the county. Thirty-three
and one-third years ago the road was
leased to the Southern Railroad and
aimee that time the Southern railroad
has been trying to get rid of it. 1t
Ia declared the road was offered to
any one who would operate 1t. with
a bonus OF $4,000. but no one would
have 1t.
Next month tho lease of the South
ern railroad expires, and this VIII
leave Franklin county with rail-
read on her hands. The object OF the
bill was to make the proposition at
tracttye to some one. but as this has
failed, 1t Is almost certain the road
will have to be managed by the
county.
