A very interesting report has been
brought To town by travelling man.
Ii is To the effect that tho b. & O. Is
to be double tracked from Fairmont
to Connellsville. This is matter of
moment to Morgantown people and II
it is true will be a source OF great
pleasure and profit Co them.
He stated that he had heard such
things aud that they had come from
people who knew. The road at pres
ent has more traffic than IL can
handle, As result trains are being
delayed and the road Is tied In hard
knot all the time.
On top of this has come the infor-
nation from the war department. that
the bridge at Fairmont must be
raised fifteen or twenty feet 20 get it
out of the way of navigation. This

down at either end OF the structure
and it means that the bridge will be
abandoned.
The road now has surveyors down
below Rivesville to place the new
route. The old bridge will be ahdn-
doned and new one will go across
the river at Catawba or near there.
IL will then so up the west bank II
the river.
A double track will be laid from
Fairmont To Gonnellsville. This will
relieve the congestion very much aud
will enable this road to be used as a
great coal road into Pittsburg. The
plan has been under consideration for
some time and It has now been deter
mined upon.
1t Is stated that the work OF con-
struction Will begin this summer and
the Improvements will be completed
as soon as possible.
Morgantown Is ready to welcome
double tracks and expects that the
new improvement will add 20 the Inn
portahce of the road and hence make
the town a better shipping point than
1t is now.

Proposition From the M. Il X. Made
by Mr.. Sturgiss--Real Estate Trans.
fers.
The county court has been quite
busy during the present. term. A
large number of tax generations have
been before 1t and many OF the appli-
cations have been granted. Nothing
has been done in regard to bridge
across Decker's Greek near the Hog
Back and nothing will be done at the
term of court.
The matter of poor farm has not
yet been disposed of and it will not
be taken up at the present. term.
The farm at present in use will con-
tinue as the poor farm for time at
least.
A third proposition in regard to the
cancellation of the Morgan district
bonds held by the M. & X. railroad
has been made to the court and 1t has
been accepted by the court Some
time ago Mr.. Sturgiss proposed to pur-
chase the stock held in exchange for
the bonds and to pay $34, 600 for the
$45, 900 held for the district.
His proposition was accepted but
nothing came of it at the time. He
now proposes to give a first mortgage
on the road for the amount with ac-
ceptable security. This has been ac-
cepted by the county court and it
only remains for the contracts TO be
signed. They have been prepared.
They were signed late this after
noon.
Several road cases have been sub
mitted and in ole case from Clinton
district the road has been opened.

Bank Shirk Payment of Taxes.

The Commissioner of Banking in
his recent report shows that there
are % State banks in West Virginia
that pay no taxes at all. At the
time the report came out there were
SO banks doing business in the
State, so that one fourth of the mon
ey institutions pay nothing on their
investment and profits. The Com
missioner calls attention to the fact
that in Wheeling there is one bank
with $I57 900 capital stock and prof
Its, included, that pays taxes on
$3.50; that is to say, one twenty
fifth of it's taxable property is as
sessed He also shows that another
bank here with $4,000 capital, and
another with $4,000 and $4,000 sur
plus, do not pay one cent of taxes.
The trust company at Elkins of
which Senator Elkins is the Presi-
dent, and bank at Fairmont with
capital and surplus of 1856, 900,
are both exempt from taxation &C
cording to his report In round num-
bers, he shows the total value of the
property retured by the banks of
the State is So, 900, and the total
amount upon which they pay taxes
is 81, 951 900 or about two seventies
of the amout properly and legally
taxable.

AGAINST D. B. HILL.
w ]. Bryan says That he Wants
to be President.

But that the Democratic Party May not
Expect to help Place the New Yorker
There--No one vino has acted With
the Republicans need Expect any
Favors from the Party.
On subject on which he has main
tanned very heavy silence Mr.. w. j.
Bryan has at last spoken. This is 10
reference to the candidacy of ID. B.
Hill of New York for the Presidential
nomination. The silence was broken
in the current issue OF the Commoner
which was out on Friday.
For some weeks Mr.. Bryan has been
parrying questions asked by news
paper men in regard to Mr.. Hill and
the anxiety OF the latter TO lead the
Democratic hosts 10 1904. He stated
that he would speak at the proper
time. He has spoken and his message
is one that will not give much aid and
comfort to the Hill People.
He says that no Democrat who de-
serted the party when IL needed him
may expect any fayors from that par
ty now. He says that Mr.. Hill un-
doubtedly wants the nomination but
that the wish is one that will not be
granted and II granted would result
in disastrous defeat.
While in Morgantown Bryan said
a very significant thing about the
Presidency and the candidate likely 10
be named. He refused to say who
should be named but stated that any
Democrat who had ever voted the
republican ticket or bad acted with
the Republicans would have hard
time OF itgetting Democratic support.
This was not related at the time
as it was given in private talk but
sincd Bryan has stated his position
publicly there is no longer any reason
TO respect the confidence. The ex-
preston made in his paper means
that h. has served notice that no gold
Democrat need apply II his influence
eah count for any thing.

CARELESS of any other Qualification as
to Residence etc Should be Named.
To the Editor of the New DOMINION:
If your paper would exercise it's
influence in favor of citizens move.
ment to nominate ticket for the
approaching municipal election a
great good to the city might be &C.
complished. With the election only
a few weeks off there is disposition
on the part of large body of our
people to let things go by default.
Many feel that in no event could the
next administration be worse than
the present one, and that so long as
the city has survived this one there
is hope that nothing serious will
happen, it matters not who goes in.
This view has bad spirit behind
1t. 1t is true that we are on the de
scending scale so far as efficiency
and competency are concerned, but
the bottom round has pot yet been
reached, and there ought to be ev
cry effort made to send the city gov
ernment on the upward scale.
Morgantown is fast reaching the
size of a city. It's interests grow
daily. To conserve and promote these
interests is the duty of every voter,
and it should be seen to that none but
the best men are chosen to conserve
and promote them. One does not
gather grapes of thorns, nor figs of
thistles. Neither does a large NUM-
cipal interest gather good results from
inferior men.
Let US have large mass meeting
of the people and place in the field a
ticket composed of the best men of
the city, regardless IF politics, race,
color or previous condition of servi-
tude
AS citizen Of the second ward it
may be well to state that the mongrel
movement inaugurated in the ward
to name candidate for the council
and to assist ia naming candidates
for mayor and recorder who are not
in favor of third ward candidates is
not9recognized by a majority of the
voters of the ward. The best citizens
in this ward favor the best men who
can be had for mayor and recorder,
1T matters not in which section Of the
city he lives, and they will name a
tirst-class man for the council when
the times comes. SECOND WARD.

TWO WEST VIRGINIANS
This State Supplies two Seniors
at Annapolis.
Each Of Them Ranks High i'm His Class
The Glass is TO be Graduated Sooner
than Customary Young Officers will
go ON two Years Cruise at Once.

Two West Virginia boys will
graduate from the United States
Naval Academy at Annapolis this
spring, Clifford Darst, of the Fourth
Congressional district, and Semmes
Read, OF the Second district. The
final ratings of cadets has not yet
been made out, but for the first three
years at the Academy, Darst ranks
sixth in class of sixty.three, and
takes star grade, accorded to Ca
diets whose average exceeds So per
cent. Read also stands well, rank
ing thirteen on the list. While
these averages are subject to slight
change, both cadets will probably
hold about this same position at the
time of graduation.
In order to meet the urgent ne
cessity for an additional number of
naval officers for sea service, the
Secretary of the Navy has authoriz-
ed the graduation of the first class
of cadets at the Naval Academy to
take place on May first, about one
month in advance of the usual time
The graduation of this class will in
crease the commissioned strength
OF the navy to the extent OF sixty
three.
1t is believed that at least three
fonrths of the class to be graduated
will be assigned to duty on the As
iatic station, while the remainder
will be distributed among the YES
sells on the other stations.
Each cadet of the graduating class
will have two years sea sruise be
fore he receives his commission in
the navy, this actual sea service be-
ing considered part of the acade-
mic course.
1t is the purpose of the Navy De
partment to detail all cadets now at
sea, including the class that will be
commissioned ensigns next July, to
watch duty, and the cadets that will
be leave Annapolis in May will re-
lieve the senior cadets of their pres
ent duties, and thus made available
a large number of young officers.
Both classes now at sea will be re
tanned on ships, and the class com,
ing up for final graduation this
spring will be examined on the sta
tions instead of at the Naval Acad
envy This final examination rounds
out the six year course of cadets,
and Immediately precedes their com
mission as naval officers.
1t has not been determined to
what station the West Virginia ca
diets will be assigned, but it is Gus
tomary, to certain extent, to defer
to the wishes Of those standing high
est. as to what station they might
prefer. Charles p. Snyder, of
Charleston, is the only West Virgin
la cadet who will round out his six
year course this summer, and be
commissioned at the expiration of
bis present cruise.
