The Clarksburg telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1874-1926, 1900-07-13

In compliance with the general demand for
sewerage and paving the present administration
let $1,000 contract to pave and sewer the bust
ness center of the city. TO fulfill this contract it
has become absolutely necessary to fix the levy at
one dollar on the hundred dollars valuation and
the council had the courage, in the face of consid-
cradle opposition, to fix it at that figure. In
provements of permanent nature have to be paid
for and can not be had, as some imagine, for moth
ing. Once made and paid for their cost resolves
itself to nominally nothing, while the value of
propertyis correspondingly increased, and pro,
tests and grumblings will then turn to praise and
satisfaction. Again, Improvements by direct tax
alton is far better than bonded indebtedness, the
interest Of which eats the revenues from year to
year. 1t is better to have our sewerng and paving
paid for when done, even if the rate OF taxation
has to be higher and tits good and safe to pay as
we go. In view of these truths, the Telegram sees
no reason for being apoogetic about the councils
action in fixing the levy at one dollar, although
is strictly opposed to INJECTING any hardships upon
the people and zealously endeavors to protect
their interests at all times.

In suooestine the name of B. B. Stout for the
democratic nomination for county commissioner
the Comfy Mail in tacit way made wholly un-
warranted accusation against Samuel s. Fairs the
nresent incumbent aud republican nominee ana
endeayored to il fupure the public against MN by
one of HE most misleading statements seen IN Puo
lie print In years The Mail said we want man
who does not vote for 40 cent road levy IN olner
districts and only a Is cent levy in his own or
words to that effect The Telegram respectfully
calls the Mails attention to the fact that 10 cent
levy in Simpson district where MIR. Fairs llves Is
based upon business principles as are the Az cent
leyies in other districts All road evies are laid in
proportion to the needs of the various districts and
these needs are far more in some dlstrlces man
Others Does it not occur tothe Mail that simpson
is one Of the weathest districts in the county and
as a consequence the rate of levy would be lover
than in other districts not so rich2 Does the Mail
not also know that there is less hauling in Simpson
than possibly any other district 10 the county ana
as n consequence the roads there are less worn:
Again will not the Mail carefully investigate the
natural lay of the roads, the sandy road beds the
splendid natural drainage and other essentials ma
ture affords and make comparisons in these partlc-
ulars to those of other districts and then honestly
correct itself? In justice to him against whom
the Mail attempts to influence votes, that paper
should heed the suggestions made herein and be
fair.

The republican gubernatorial nominee, Hon.
A. B. White, of Parkersburg, is so widely and Ia
vorably known throughout the state that 1t is
aste of words TO introduce him again to our read
ars Mr. White has done much as any one man
in this state to rescue West Virgniaflom damnable
democratic rule. such as the Chiffon gang gave US
SO many years, and he is the proper and logical
leader to defeat the evil designs of McGrawism at
this time against good and honest government in
this state. AS campaigner Mr.. White will prove
a strong magnet and his splendid personality and
snnerior intellect make him political giant, the
enemy fears AS governor of the state and that fact
IA assured beyond the shadow OF doubt, he will
officiate with eminent distinction and will tower
head and shoulders above many OF his predeces

dignity OF that high Office The bitterness with
which his candidacy has been opposed by the dem
ocratic party even from its very inception down
even to the very moment of his nomination is evil

The morning after Bryans nomination by the

and demonstrate the attitude of the rank and file
of the party and especially the business mems con.

we're sincere then and they will be equally sincere
