ALBEMARLE DEMOCRATS
WILL DISCUSS TAXATION
They Invite Senator Fentherston to
Address Them mt Mass-Meetins
on Monday.
Especial to The Times-Dispatch.]

Ill
LYNCHBURG, VA. July 26-State
Senator II c. Featherston. of Lynch
burg, has been invited to make an ad-
dress upon tho subject Of State taxation
before mass-mecting of tho Demo-
Gratis of Albemarlc County, which will
be hold at Charlottesville on Monday
1t Is Senator Fcatherstons intention to
accept the invitation. He was one Of
the opponents In tho State Senate last
winter to the scheme Of tax segregation
put through the extra session OF the
General Assembly, and for that reason
ne has been asked to talk to tho Abe
marie people,
Senator Featherston has copy Of
tho call for the mass-meetinE, which
is. In part. as follows:
The real estate owners OF Albemarle
County and city OF Charlottesville arc
deeply Interested in the financial legis.
latton OF the last General Assembly
Aibemarle faces n loss In its county
revenues to the amount of $4,000 This
means that road work shall be suspend
cd to that amount. or else an increase
Of the rate of taxation"
The call deals with tho fact tina,
Albemarles representatives opposed
the new laws. and declares the effort
Is to arouse public sentiment for
changes by the next General Assembly.
which is to be elected in November
and closes as follows:
THE intent and effect of tho dnan
clal legislation of the last General AS
sembly Is to put the great burden OF
taxation upon real estate and to re-
lease certain favored classes from the
large part OF their fair share of such
burden, and IL the owners of real estate
do not wake up they may expect fur
Their steps to be taken by the next
Legislature increasing the burdens Of
taxation on real estate
Another reason why the people OF
the State should take interest is that
the Democratic party has made , no
declaration OF principles relating to
this great economic question. II tho
Democratic party Is to live. II must
have platform of principles: for a
party without principles is a party
without a living soul"

OF the trouble was jealousy on the part

Susie King with having occupied her
room and received her male company
during her imprisonment. She was

Griffin woman was seen coming from
the room alone and was heard to call
back: "Now I've cut you, have me ar
rested" Persons who entered the pool
room found Susie King huddled up dead

was "A terrible one, the knife blade
