INTERESTED IN QUESTION
OF MOVING COURTHOUSE

ASHLAND. VA. August 9Th,
question OF the removal OF the count,
scat from Hanover to Ashland. which
Will be settled at the election to be
heiu on next Tuesday. is the tonic that
is interesting tho citizens OF Hanover
Both those fdvorins the removal %,
the county scat and those opposed ia
ana change. are delugins the county
with pamphlets and circulars
interest has been manifested i'm the
claim OF those favpring the removal
that surplus has been accruinr in
the county funds under the present tax
levy. which claim was strenuously de-
me" by the opposition. An cxamina :
ton of the records on file in the clerk
office was made this morning and
showed that in the past four years IA
surplus of S9.740 had been accumu-
lated under the county levy. and seq
reeated To roads and schools, and to
defray a part OF the expense of erect
ing the Confederate monument
me county levy under which this
surplus accumulated has not been in =
creased for about twenty years. and
the surplus does not include the extra
ordinary expenses Of putting lights in
the courthouse and special rcpairs TO
me clerks Office. Neither does /, in
Guide the salary paid the farm demon
strator.
Advocates OF the removal of the
county seat see in this surplus not
oniy testimonial of the efficient adj
mintstration of Mcssrs Shelton. John
son and Luck. the present board Of
supervisors. but also Il powerful arcu-
ment in favor OF the establishment OF
the county seat in Ashland. They con
hdently claim that the expense OF such
an establishment can he paid without
any Increase in the present county
levy. ana they arc asking the question
why was n" surplus accumulated up
TO four years ago, when county cx-
pcnscs were by no means so heavy a.
they have been recently?
