the first of the week, with view
to leasing the Hotel Virginia. It
is a deplorable fact that Virginia

thod is the erection of new and
suitable hotel.

OPTIMISTIC.

Mayor Scott, of Virginia, who
is in the city, says that better
times prevail on the ranges in a
way than before IN five years.
He believes that in future the
range towns will experience a
more stable and continuous pros
perity than ever before, and
looks for a large increase of
population in the northern part
of the country during the next
few years.-News Tribune.

The Single Tax league. of St..
Louis, found that the local fran
chises Of the city were worth
$50, 600, 900, and claimed that
they were subject to taxation. In
this position they are upheld by
Judge R. E. Bombauer. attorney
OF the board of public schools,
who says: Touching the taxa
tion of the franchises of these
corporations is not one of liabili
ty to assessment, out one of de
tail of assessment only. That
this class of franchises are pro
perty has been uniformly deci1-
ed by state and federal tribunals:
that they possess in cover a
separate and distinct value over
and above the value of the tangi-
BILE property of the corporation
has likewise been uniformly de
cided, and that intangible pro-
perty is subject to assessment
for taxation upon its value is ex
pressly provided for by our
revenue laws"
G. M. Atkinson, who has been
connected with The Virginian in
the various capacities of editor,
typo, job printer and devil for
the last six months, has resign
ed his position. The move was
probably Influenced to a large
degree by the result of the re.
cent municipal election, which
was contrary to the policy advo-
Gated by The Virginian.- .-Hib-

1t is not luck, but labor tha t
makes the man. Luck is ever
waiting for something to turn

Luck whines; labor whistles;
luck relies on chance; labor on

upward, and aspries to indie

BASE BALL COMMENT.

The result of yesterdays game was a
surprise to many Of the fans, who in
some way had become imbued with the
idea that Starr had gathered a weak
team, which would be unable to cope
with the strong Canton aggregation
that has beaten such strong teams as
st. Louis. Milwaukee and Youngstown.
The locals played a fast game. and Il
the pace can be maintained, the boys
will receive a very liberal support. A
winning team Is all that Is required to
bring out the enthusiasts, and It looks
as though that Is the kind Of team the
management has.
