RYAN SETS AN EXAMPLE.
(Richmond Times-Dispatch)

(Richmond Times-Dispatch)
Payment by Thomas f. Ryan to
the State and Nelson county of the
great sums of money due by him in
back taxes marks an epoch in the tax
histor yof Virginia. The frankness
and willingness to obey the law that
Mr.. Ryan has displayed deserve the
emulation of other men of wealth
whose duty yet is undischargcd.
The collections from Mr.. Ryan,
made in accordance with the eminent
ly fair law limiting assessments fer
back taxes passed at the last session
of the General Assembly, have paid
twice over, it is estimated, all the ex-
penses incurred in the reform of the
States system of revenues. That the
richest citizen of Virginia should have
met these large imposts without OBJ
pection and without bubble speaks
well for the essential justice of the
rate and assessment.
The segregation tax law, bitterly
opposed in its initial stages and since
venomously attacked, is proving it's
efficiency. Not only has is disclosed
for taxation intangible personally to-
falling $75,000,000, which in the past
had contributed nothing to the rev.
enues of the State, but it has premot-
ed substantially the equalization of
taxation on all classes of property.
One of the products Of reform is the
State Tax Board, which already has
shown the disposition and the capacity
to justify the public confidence re-
posed in it.
Mr.. Ryan's payments VIII be fol-
lowed by others. Under the law. State
taxes may not be assessed back of
1903 and city and county assessments
are limited to 1912. When returns Of
intangible personally under this law
are made voluntarily, the taxpayer
| is exempted from both interest and
penalty, so that it is to deal fairly
and justly with the State. On the
other hand, ample provision has beer
made for the discovery of omitted
intangiblcs and their assessment, tho
State Tax Board being empowered t.
control in large measure the action:
of the examiners of records and othe>
officers. Failure TO make returns,
therefore, will not have the placit
pcrmancnce of that practice undo
the old regime.

NO REVOLUTION HERE.
Baltimore American)

Those Irish revolutionists have
done d positive service to the United
States. After the drastic treatment
they received from the Irish and the
English troops and their ignominious
surrender there will be little enthus-
iasm aroused in the United States
among the element of the Irish that
finds its counterpart in .the:Irish Sep
aratists or on the part Of! the radical
element of the Germans, to seek to

CREDIT FOR THE
AQUEDUCT BRIDGE

The Gazette i'll common with all
the other newspapers OF Virginia,
those of Washington and the united
people of this state and the District
of Columbia will unqualifiedly ap-
prove the editorial in this mornings
Post in which it gives credit for the
successful passage of the bill appro-
priating 100000 for new Aque-
duct bridge. The Post says:
Late Yesterday afternoon the House
accepted the Senate amendments to
the Carlin bill appropriating $1,000,
600 for a new Aqueduct bridge ard
the perfected measure will be sent
today to the President for his sig
nature. The handsome structure
which is to link Washington with
Virginia will soon become an accom-
,plished fact.
In the House Representative Car
lin, of Virginia, and Representative
Adamson, of Georgia, pllot@' the
measure to successful issue, and are
entitled to generous recognition for
their services. Virginia will be par
ticularly grateful to her representa-
tive for his part in securing the new
bridge, and in these sentiments the
National Capital will heartily join.
Both Washington and Virginia will
also remember Representative Adam
son for his jealous cooperation.
In the Senate it was Senator Swan
son and Senator Martin who did like
service for. their State by champion
ing the bill and securing its passage
in that branch. When the Sl,0oO,OoC
bridge becomes "a reality, which Is
now assured it will be in large mea'
sure a monument to these men, VINO
looked after the Legislative end Of
an enterprise which has long oeen
the hope of Washington and Viz
| ginia. In its new beauty, the project
cd span will make of the river more
kof bond than boundary and vii
endear its sponsors all the more K
the District and the State beyond tht
Potomac.
To the senators and representative:
of Virginia great credit should b.
given, not only by their constituents
of that State, whose interests the!
have been so Jealous in promoting
but also by the residents of Wash
incton, who will be so largely benc
flied by the good work done in tn!

Loss of $500 Men in
German Assault Upon
French Is Reported

PARIS, Jan. 12.-The Germans lost
more than $4,000 men in the Sunday
onSlaughts against the French lines
in Champagne, according to Chalons
dispatches today, describing the bat
tie as the bloodiest on the western
font since the allied offensive last
September.
Great numbers of wounded German
prisoners have reached Chalons. They
confirm the report that General Won
Etmen planned to break through the
French line and bend back the whole
front from Rheims to Vardun.
The prisoners complained that the
German artillery failed to do its work.
Instead OF silencing the French bat
teries, the German guns only wreckel
portions of advanced French trenches.
The heavy bombardment, lasting
nearly twenty-four hours, gave ample
time for the French to hurry up re-
serves to meet the attack.
Asphyxiating gas shells forced the
French to retire from several advance
ed positions before che Germans
charged. The Arst rush carried them
into the French first line trenches,
but their ranks were riddled when
they attempted to push on.
