cultivation of the ground is
? traversed by a system of south-
bound railroad known as oThe
Seaboard Air Line. T According
to the progressive general mana-
ger of the road, Mr. Everett Sv.
John, the management realizes
this country must be built-up and
improved. To that end, it some
time ago establisbed under the
direction of Mr.John T. Patrick
tor years well known as a prime
- mover 1n all plans for upbuiiding
. the South and benetitting the
Southern farmers, an industrial
department with headquarters at
Portsmouth.
Some time ago Mr. Fatrick
conceived the idea of havisg
exbibitious throughout the South
to show the best means of utiliz-
ing the great resources at the
command of the residents of this
section. This plan has found
expression in an industrial train
which has been especially co.-
structed for the purpose for which
it will be used.
cars have been utilized for the
purpose. A combination pas-
senger and sleeping car is a'so
attached.
The sides of tbe cars are +o
arranged that they may be let

and improving roads and other
things of interest to the poople
living along the line of the syse

The train left Portsmouth Se:-
urday morning, and the firat
exhibition was giyen yesterday
at Bovkins, Va., under the per-
s0nai supervision of Mr. Patrick.
The exhibition attracted wide-
spread attention throughout the
adjacent country and hundreds

Is a tax due the State end un-
paid adebtin the constitutional
sense of the wore *
lf it is, then the last Legisla-
ture passed an unconstitutional
law when it put sections 52 and
53 in the Revenue Act. These
sections are as follows -
oSec. 52. oThat rt shall be and
it is hereby the duty of the sheriff
of each county ~ia the State to
make dilligentinquiry and report
to the judge at each term of the
criminal court held in the county
following the time when the
license tax and taxes proviaed
for in schedules 4, B and © of
this act should have been paid
as to whether or not such license
taxes and other taxes have been
paid by all persons or corpora~
tions liable for the »bame, and to
make out a list of delinquents.
And it shall be made the duty of
the judge to submit tne list of
the delinquents to the solicitor to
the end that such delinquents
may be prosecuted for such de-
faication 10 the manner provided
in the next section of this act.
oSec. 538, Thatsich persons or
pay the license tax or taxes pro-
vided for in schedules A, B aud
C of this act and the machinery
act, and sbal fail to pay the
same as provided by law shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor, and
punished by a fine not exceeding
five nundred dollars or impris-
oped not exceeding six months,
and the -heriff shall be allowed
by the judge such eomrensation
for making such report as he may
dsem just and proper, to be paid
by tha county.�
Auditor Ayer and ~Lreasurer
Worth say that these sections
apply to everything under sched-
ules A, B und C of the Revenue
Act ard the Machinery Act, so
tuat the owner of property tie
tix on which has not been paid,
muy be jailed for the debt.
Iu this view they are supported
b ~sihe Attorney-General who
yesterday rendered the followiag
opinion: oIt is my opinion that
sections 52 and 53 of the Kevenue
Act apply to all taxes alike. At
first I thought the proyisions
unconstitutional as being in
contravention vo the prov:sions
of the constitution which provides
that there shall be no imprison-
ment in this State for debt, but
after consideration I haye ecn-
cluded that they are valid.�
This means that non-pay went
cf taxes, opens the jail doors
wide"and for this we have the
recent fusion Legislature to
thank.
There are others, however,whe
de not think the imprisonment
part of the penalty will stand
the test of the courts"that a tax
is a debt like any otner debt,
voluntarily assumed when a man
becomes a citizen of the State."

could not pay his taxes amounting to
a few dollars, it would be beyond bis
