WINCHESTER, Va. May 15.-There
has been general rejoicing In all sec
tions OF the Shenandoah valley the past
few days because of a heavy and set
tied rain, which lasted part of two
days-the first rain of consequence to
fall in this section since the winter
SHOWS melted in February. The drought
was becoming a matter as serious as
the protracted dry spell Of last sum
mer. which was a record-breaker. Some
portions of that geographical section
OF the state known as the great valley
or Virginia got more rain than others,
but, according to late reports received
here, the rainfall Is believed to have
been sufficient to revive dropping crops
and put the ground in condition to be
worked again.
Upwards of $500 public school chill

HOME RULE FOR MARYLAND.
Voters of State to Act on Constitu.
tional Amendment.
,-.,.,,o,d.,o, .r Tho S,ar

Special Correspondence OF The Star.
BALTIMORE, Nd. May 15.-Voters
in Maryland will be asked this fall to
ratify or reject four proposed amend
ments to the state constitution embod- :
led in laws passed at the 1914 session
of the legislature. One of the amend
ments proposes to place in the hands
OF the people a limited power over
statutory law, and provides that any
law passed by the legislature may be
referred to the people il 10000 quail
fled voters sign a petition and file It
with the secretary OF state within two
months after the adjournment OF the
legislature passing the measure.
The measure is then to be voted on
at the fall election succeeding. II a
majority is favorable it becomes q law.
The home rule" bill insures to every
county and Baltimore city home rule.
That is, 1t takes local laws out Of the
hands of the legislature and refers
them to the respective local jurisdic-
tions.
1t is argued that the legislature, re-
lieved of the responsibility for local
legislation, can give closer attention
to matters affecting the whole state.
The amendment to article 15 OF the
bill of rights gives the legislature
power to classify the different classes
of property. land. improvements and
personal property, so the state and
the local jurisdictions may tax the
classes of property with greater uni
formity and equity.
In Maryland attempts have been
made in this direction by putting lower
local rates on certain securities, on
bank stock and manufacturing plants.
and eXempting $500 worth of furniture.
The objection to the present practice
is that it is unequal and subject to
abuse. The amendment is really a
home rule power over the subjects OF
taxation for local purposes.
The fourth amendment provides for
the indeterminate sentence and q more
liberal land common sense treatment of
wrongdoers. based upon the humane
principle that society is best served by
q speedy restoration Of character. A
board of pardons and parole is pro-
vided to consider each case on its ner.
its, including the possibility OF reform.

Funds Are Provided.

Now that the work is all laid out and
considerable part finished, the roads
Office reported to the county super
visors last week that about $4,000 of
the money would remain for further
use. and suggested building the line to
connect the boulevard with Rosemont.
The government said it would add $500
to the fund if the supervisors would
appropriate like amount, and this the
county board did at it's May meeting
last week.
The money is to be used only on the
Alexandria county half of the road
running from point near Poor House
lane to the new city limits. Alexandria
city is to build the other end into Rose
mont. The whole distance is about
four miles. Work is expected to be
undertaken as soon as practicable and
finished before winter.
