For years tho merchants have been working hard to get tho lino extended to Fulton, but their efforts have been fruitless. Tho Kentucky Tobacco Product Company, whose plant will bo located Just below the city, has applied for sulllclent power to operate a 40) horse-power motor to run their plant. If the ngreement Is made to furnish the plant the wires will have to be sti ung through Fulton to reach it. The Fulton merchants will then be able to secure power for lights and fans. Heretofore tbe company has stated that tho expenso would be too heavy to extend the wires to this soc.tlon. Business In Fulton has not been affected by tho street car striko yet. If any? thing, business has Improved, for the peo? ple havo remained In that section, con? sequently i.ielr money has been Bpent there, iho working people are walking, and several of therri expressed themselves n s being perfectly willing to walk during the strike.

PILOT LAW IS ANNULLED ?xStrdge Buchanan in Able Opinion Sus? tains Norfolk City Court, and De? clares it is In Conflict With the United State Statutes. In tho Supreme Court at Wytbevllle on Thursday several Important and Interest? ing opinions were handed down. One was that by Judge Harrison In the case of Taylor ngalnst the Commonwealth, in? volving tbo validity of the new Consti? tution, and tho organic law of the State was clearly and ably upheld. Tho caso came up from tho County CCTirt of Augusta, and was tho first In tho State to bo tried under that provision of the new Constitution which permits the Bontenclng of a prisoner under certain conditions by tho court without the inter? vention of a Jury, Taylor was Indicted for housebrenklng with Intent to commit fcirceny. Tho now Constitution hnd Just become effective. Judge Lyman Chalkley, sitting In the case, availed himself of tho provision re? ferred to abavo, and In order to save the Commonwealth tho unnecessary ex-ponno of a Jury, Taylor was convicted and sen toncod by the court to confinement In the reformatory, and, If denied admlselon ttu?ro, thon to servo his term In the pen? Itontlary. Taylor appealed on tho ground that the now Constitution was Invalid, In that. It was Improperly proclaimed by the con? vention, and that, therfeore. the court had no right to sentence tho prisoner without the Intervention of a Jury. STRONG OPINION. In the latter portion of his opinion Judge Harrison, after reviewing'the cir? cumstances under which the Constitu? tion was proclaimed and" acknowledged, says: "The Constitution having been thus acknowledged and accepted by the offl cere administering the government, and by the people of the State, and being as a matter of fact In force throughout the State, and there being no government In existence under tho Constitution of 1869 opposing or denying Its validity, we havo no difficulty In holding that the Constitu? tion In question, which went Into effect at noon on the 10th day of July, 1902, Is tho only rightful, valid 'fend existing Consti? tution of this State, nnd thnt to It all tho citizens of Virginia owe their obe? dience and loyal allegiance." The writ of error asked for Is there? fore denied by the court. Pilot Case Up. The next most Interesting opinion was that handed down by Judge Buchanan In tho caso of Darden vs. Thompson. This case came up from the Corporation Court of the city of Norfolk, and Involved a ' construction of the pilot laws of the State. The plaintiff being a pilot, li? censed under the laws of Virginia, of? fered his services to the defendant In August, 1902, off Cape Henry, the schoon? er manned by the defendant being owned by residents of the State ot Maine. The services of the plaintiff being refused, and the defendant not holding a# coast? wise pilot license, was sued by the plain? tiff for $87.75. The defendant demurred and the demurrer was sustained and Judgment was rendered In his favor. To that Judgment the writ of error was awarded. LAW INVALID. In discussing the matter. Judge Buch? anan says In a very ablo opinion: "Whilst a number of grounds for de? murrer were assigned only one was con? sidered by the trial court, and only one Is relied on here, and that Is that he pilot laws of Virginia, upon which the declaration Is based, are Inoperative and void, because In conflict with section 4237 of tho revised statutes of the United States, which provides that 'no regula? tions or provisions shall be adopted by any State which shall make any discrim? ination in the rates of pilotage or half pilotage between vessels sailing between the ports of ono State and vessels sailing between the ports of different States, or any discrimination against vessels pro polled In whole or In part by steam,, or against national vessels of the United States, and all existing regulations or provisions making any such discrimina? tions aro annulled and abrogated.' " Tho oplnln of the lower court Is sus? tained, the matter being discussed at great length with characteristic force and clearness by Judge Buchanan. Other Opinions. Other opinions handed down on Thurs? day were /Baltimore Dental Association vs. A. M. Fuller, by Judge Keith, from the Corporation Court of of the city of Roanoke. Reversed. Radford West End Land Company vs. J. 'G? Cowan, by Judgo Keith, from tho Circuit Court of Montgomery. Reversed. Roanoke Cemetery Company vs. F. P. Goodman and others.
