the colored orator who long represented

pose to ignore the blacks and build up

does not attach much importance to them.

Auditor DuGy's report contains d
comparative table OF assessed valuations
Of the real estate, personal property and
railroad property in the State for the
years 1867 to 1883, inclusive, which tells
the history OF the growth and prosperity
ofthe State within thatperiod. Itshows
a steady increase each year, but the per-
centage Is not so great as 1t might have
been, or as II doubtless will be during
the next twelve years, A large part OF
the period covered by the figures was q
time in which West Virginia made COM
paratively little progress in the matter
OF development. For instance, the In
crease in the value Of railroad property
in the fifteen years from 1867 to 1882 was
but s., OOO,sOl. In the latter year, how
ever, the awakening from the long sleep
occurred, and the activity which has
developed tho boom now fairly under
way began. The following year saw the
value Of railroad property increased al
most as much az in the entire fifteen pre-
ceding years. From 1889 the increase has
been very rapid, until, in 1883, the total
value Of railroad property in the State
was Sl5,5Ol,67O, an increase Of $7O4S,6B7
in six years, or three times as much as in
The fifteen years preceding.
The figures US to real and personal
property are not 30 gratifying, the
assessed valuations AuCtuating and those
Of lust year showing slight decrease.
There are many reasons for this which
need not be discussed now.
Not until the past year has there been
any organized effort in the State TO
prosecute tho work Of development,
and now that the people hove taken
hold Of the matter we may look for
greater results in the next few years.
The possibilities are almost limitless and
we look forward to an era Of unpre'
cedented prosperity.
