yesterday, and as neither one cross.

race was declared of. At the end,
however, the Columbia was six min.

had there been any wind, would
have undoubtedly won the third

JAIL DELIVERY.

From Outside Parties,
from Wednesdays Daily.
Early last night three prisoners,
WIN. Ward, Ben Harris and AID.
Gleockner, made their escape from
the Jail. They escaped by saving or
using acid in cutting plate over
the sower hole, and through it de-
scended to the chamber which ie
the receptacle for the offall from
the closets, and spreading down
blankets on the filth, passed out
through tho vault chamber, to the
rear end of the building, where "A
door bars further progress When
they reached this they found the
coast clear, as some of their friends
or pals had removed the fasten
ings TO the iron door on the out
side, and they passed out without
trouble, and escaped in the dark
ness. passing up through the gard
ca lots. The alarm was given and
6OOl VI lIlOll ulINA tJOO
were on their trail. However they
managed to elude their pursuers,
and nothing had been heard from
them this morning, up to the time
we go to press. The Sheriff tele
phoned and telegraphed to all
points of the escape of the prison
ers, and it is moro than likely they
will be captured before night,
Unfortunately Mr. Hanly had come
up yesterday and took his blood
hounds home. Had they been
here tho prisoners no doubt
would have been overhauled last
night by the hounds.
No blame is attachable TO Sheriff
Porter for the escape of these pris-
oners, for he is most careful about
every detail of the Jail, but he
could not guard against outside
scroundels.

The Now Assessment Law.

Tine new law providing for the
decennial reaesessment of the real
estate of the state for the purposes
of taxation goes into effect on the
goth of May next.
1t provides in substance that:
The county court of each county
having two assessment districts
shall recommend five persons, who
shall be freeholders in their dis
tricts, of whom the board of public
works shall appoint one assessor for
each district. In counties of only
one assessment district the court
recommends three persons, one of
whom the board appoints.
The assessors shall give bond in
the sum of $1,000 for tho faithful
performance of their duties.
The Auditor shall furnish the
necessary books, &c.
The work shall begin as soon as
possible, and tho as SCISSOR shall OK
anime in person, all tho tracts of
land and town lots, Will buildings
and improvements, and shall ascer-
tain and assess the fair cash value
thereof, and the minerals, mineral
waters, oils and gases underlying
the surface shall be considered in
ascertaining the value; and when
mineral, mineral water, oil, gas or
coal privileges or interests are held
by party or company exclusive of
the surface, the same shall be
assessed separately to such party at
it's cash or market value; and the
commissioner, in fixing the value
of lands and mineral rights, shall
act in all cases upon his own judg-
ment and upon all the information
he can obtain as to such value.
And when the timber, is held by n
person or corporation, or any tract
of land, and the land is owned by
another, said timber shall be
assessed separately to the owner
thereof, at it's fair cash or market
value.
In fixing the value of any land,
within the limits of any city, or
elsewhere, which has been laid off
into lots, and opened up as lots, by
the construction and maintenance
of roads and streets through the
same, the commissioner shall adopt
as the value of such land, the value
thereof as SO laid off into such lots,
valuing the same by the lot and
not by the acre or tract.
When the assessment is complet-
ed it shall be duly sworn to and re-
turned to the Auditor, and two
copies left with the county clerk.
Any person feeling nggrieved by
the assessment may apply to the
county court within ono year for
relief, and the court will hear the
case, and decide it, with the right
of appeal in either party to the
circuit court.
Tho compensation of each assess
or shall be three dollars a day, but
the total shall not exceed three
hundred dollars. .
There shall be state board of
equalization composed of five per-
sons, one free holder from each of
the four congressional districts and
one at large, not more than three of
whom shall belong to one political
party, to be appointed by the board
of public works. Their duty is to
equalize the assessments as between
the counties and districts.
The first taxes to be collected
under this reassessment will be in
the year 1900. -Parkersburg Sen

Go into any thriving, busting
town and watch the tides of trade
as they ebb and flow, and you will
discover that tho man who is in
the swim for the time being is there
because he has made the people
believe that he has what they need.
He advortises the wares on his
shelves, the bargains he has to offer,
the skill he has TO exercise, or the
grand chance his neighbors are all
looking for. Ho knows we'll that
the paper published in his town
goes into it's homes and will be read
there; that through it's columns he
can talk to the inmates of those
homes; and he gives it his story to
repeat at every Preside. The result
is, his store is crowded, his trade
fiourishes, he is forced to enlarge
his promises to meet the growing

threshold; he becomes the local

The Washington Post of last
Sunday contained short biograph-
ical sketches of the one hundred
and twenty members of the two
Houses of Congress who, at noon
last Saturday, stepped back into
private life, and from it we extract
the following concerning ex-Sena-
tor Faulkner. 1t contains bit of
history for some of our readers and
news for all of them:
"Senator Faulkner might have
left the Senate years ago and been
to day much richer than he is at
present. He was on his way to the
Capitol one morning when tele-
gram was handed him. 1t was an
offer from great corporation to be
it's attorney at salary three times
as great as he was receiving as SEN
ator. His fret thought was to in
stantly accept. A moments rehec.
ton, however, reminded him that
the Legislature of his State was
Republican, and this would mean
an additional Republican vote in
the Senate. The Democratic ma
jority was then so narrow that the
outgoing of a Democrat and the
incoming of Republican would be
serious blow to the Democratic
party. Under these circumstances
he did not hesitate. He put the
dispatch in his pocket, declined the
offer, and few days later heard
that another attorney had been
chosen
at is pleasant to know that Sen
ator FauIkner's abilities as law
yer-and he ranks among the fore
most in West Virginia-are SO uni.
versally known that as he goes out
of the Senate he steps into very
lucrative practice, having already
been retained for large interests al
a sum which makes his Senatorial
salary seem small"

AS to Trusts and the Remedy.
The Chicago Tribune, the lead
ing Republican paper of the Mid
die West, in discussing the trust
evil, says the only way to break the
truets-or the majority of them-is
to abolish The tariff duty on their
product. that is, to let in foreign
competition on them, which would
Immediately break their strangle
hold on the American consumer.
And our Republican contemporary
specifics the Tin Plate Trust as one
that could be readily smashed by
this method. whenever" it says,
"Congress feels inclined to smash
the Tin Plate Trust all it has to
do is to cut down tho duty"
Verify, all this is so old as to
have long ago become truism. 1t
always has been true and always
will be-as true as that monopoly
tariff gives the tariff fostered
Trusts a monopoly of the home
market and deprives the govern
ment of revenue by excluding for.
eign products. And the home
market once monopolized, the next
step of the trust is to shove up
prices-just as the Tin Plate Trust
has done-by cutting down home
production by shutting down mills
and throwing thousands out of
work-again just as tho Tin Plate
Trust has done.
Yet knowing these things the
Chicago Tribune continues to
staunchly support the apostle of
monopoly tariff, whose admins
tration is the main bulwark of the
trusts and will be known in history
as the Administration of the
Trusts. Wheeling Register.
One of the most terrible weapons
of harbor defense is the modern
breech loading mortar. The NOR
tar is about twelve feet long, weighs
thirteen tons, 12.inoh rified bore,
and every two minutes throws a
shell weighing 1000 pounds with
such accuracy that it can be
dropped from it's high trajectory
upon the deck of a vessel anywhere
within a range of four and one half
miles, and there exploding, destroy
the machinery and crew and per-
haps sink the vessel. One thous-
and of these mortars are provided
for in our present scheme of nat
ional coast defense, and 800 have
already been mounted in positions
commanding tho entrance of the
principal harbors of the Atlantic
coast. This mortar is so nicely
balanced that it can be loaded,
aimed and fired by two men.
