REVENUES FROM THE MARKET.
Clerk Masters Turned in Over $11,-
600 in Fees Last Year.

600 in Fees Last Year.
Mr. L. p Masters, clerk of the city mar
ket, filed his annual report with Mayor
Meldrim yesterday. Besides giving the
usual information, the report shows that
the city has received a fairly large share
of its revenue from this source. The to-
tai receipts for the year were $l1,4lO.25.
In the collection of this large amount,
which comes from dealers in crab and
shrimp to those of more Importance, Mr..
Masters has succeeded in promptly get
ting it into the city's Golfers. He has
succeeded in keeping the market clean,
tidy and attractive, thing which cannot
always be claimed for places where such
a large amount of vegetable, produce, fish,
meats and other things are handled. Mr..
Masters has not only pleased the public
and the city officials with the excellent
way he has discharged his duties, but the
uniform and impartial way he has treated
the dealers, has won him their friendship
and respect For this reason he is given
their hearty cooperation in conducting
things properly at the market, which could
not be done il the clerk and those under
his supervision did not work in harmony.
The probability that there will be no
change in the management of the market
the ensuing two years insures continual
ton of the present service.
The report contains the following state
ment of revenue received from the market

Some Additional Details Con
corning the governmental
Requirements.


PARKERsBURa, July 2th.-A few
days ago the State Journal printed
a notice to the effect that internal
revenue stamps were required ON
oil and gas leases. A recent letter
from the acting commissioners of
internal revenue to an oil operator
in local fields gives some additional
details of the govefnme ental equire.
.meht that viii DO 81 interest To all
people taking or making leases,
The letter from the acting commits.
missioner says:
"Replying to your letter of June
81, 1899, you are advised that this
office holds that when an oil and
gas lease is made for the period of
one year, or lesser term, and SO
long thereafter as oil or gas is found
in paying quantities, it should be
stamped at the rate of 20 cents a
lease for one year. The wording
of the lease in reference to the term
is suoh that it is lease for GER
tain period of one year. If this
period is extended and the second
year is entered into, it should have
affixed another 20 cent stamp, and
so on from year to year, as lease
for one year.
"Unless a specific term is agreed
upon, the instrument should be
stamped every year.
This office has ruled in regard
to leases where the period isSfor one
year with the privilege of three
years, that taxation of 80 cents
acorues, because under the lease
the party may acquire lease-hold
interest for suoh period, upon
which tax of so cents accrues on
the instrument eyidencing the
lease.
"This seems to be different from
the wording in the lease referred to
by you, although the party may
acquire, under this lease, an inter
est exceeding one year, the term is
not specified and therefore this
office is of the opinion that it is
under tho law lease from year to
year and taxable as such."

why Not?

Why not end up this deep debate,
That long hath tired MS all;
And start at once e'er it be too late
To build that monument tall,
In honor of him whose fate
Is known by great and small?
Why not convert that pretty square
In which our hero lays.
Into pretty park, as no whore
Could be be found prettier placer
Then let us commence our building

Time ut last wins the race.
Don't let our enterprise die;
We need II park right here,
Where two rivers are gliding by,
Where fine scenery is so near,
Why not, then, let us try .a
And make our park this year2 4

up over a strange fatality that has
appeared among cattle. The ami
mails take suddenly sick with
something like cramps and in a
short time die. DR.. Moore, veter-
mary surgeon for the State Board
of Live Stock Co, pronounces it
Texas fever. The disease appeared
in Neal Brothers herd of 400 cat
tie, and in three days 80 head of
cattle died. The disease is infect
ious and the farmers are greatly
alarmed and are making a vigorous
effort to check it. One of the firm
of Neal Bros. has gone to Cincin-
natl to try and locate the party
from whom he purchased the cat
tie with the view of collecting dam.

POINT -PIEAsANT, MASON COUNTY, WEST FTRGl

Should Be So In West Virginia
From the sentiment of the press
of Virginia. it seems probable thai
the next Legislature of that State
will enact law making the carry
hing of deadly weapons felony
All effortsrto suppress the weapon
habit by the misdemeauor route
have been Intellectual. It's an evil
that is growing each day and has
fairly run away with the law. The
number of persons who carry dead
| ly weapons habitually, is appalling,
On the most trivial provocetion
pistols are fiourished and frequent
ly used. They are not carried for
defense, but for aggression. 1t
looks like all the States will have
to make the offense of carrying
deadly weapons felony as the
only method by which it may be
suppressed.
The Republican leaders are not
in accord themselves as to the pur-
poses and results of the protective
system. The New York World
points out the Inconsistency of the
speech of Senator Chandler with
the interview of Postmaster Gen
eral Smith. Senator Chandler says
that it is necessary to maintain the
protective tariff in order that our
homo manufacturers may be en-
abled to compete with the cheap
labor and cheap products from
abroad. According to Senator
Chandler our homo manufacturers
would be driven ont of the home
market but for the productive du-
ties. On the other hend, Post
master General Smith declares that
the tariff is not necessary to protect
home manufacturers. The objects
of protection were originally to pro-
tect infant industries and this is
no longer necessary. Not only
have our industries grown to that
degree of strength that they cap
compete with foreign competition
here at home, but they have be-
come so strong that they even
compete with foreign competition
on their own ground. If the pro-
teotive system has lost its virtue as
a means of protection it is being
maintained solely as means for
