Editors IntellIgCncer.
The attempt in the Legislature OF West
Va. this winterto levy anincreased State tax
for educational purposes is ill-tilned and
can come from no friend OF the common
schools. It will be SO oppressive that it
will endanger the whole system.
The object is to raise money for coun.
ties sparsely inhabited, supposed to be
not wealthy. The trouble in these coun.
ties is that large amounts OF lands are held
by wealthy men rs wild lands, which have
been always heretofore esteemed unpro.
ductivc and have been taxed at nominal
values. Why2 Because they say they
are unproductive? What delnsion Is
u clock, watch or musical instrument pro.
ductive? Are some OF your nail mills in
Wheeling, where hundreds of thousands
OF dollars are invested, prod uctiyc? Ask
the stockholders TO exhibit their receipt
books showing their dividends! Yet they
are taxed rs heretofore.
Suppose man in Wheeling should
build a house valued at $4,000 for taxa
tion, but should put so high rental price
on II that no person would occupy It, he
would be considered next to insane II he
would claim exemption from taxation be-
cauke his property yielded hin nothing.
