Don't Like the, Law.

Ministers at Superior are advocat'
ing the amendment of the marriage
law. They have appointed commit
the legislature asking that the five
days waiting clause be cut off. They
assert that the reform law fails tc
reform where it tries to make people
wait five days, because people who
don't want to wait will go to other
states to get married. The amount
of money that ministers and justices
of the peace lose yearly on account
of this law is greater than the
amount they now make from mar
riages.

Urge New Tax Basis.

In it's second biennial report the
state tax commission renews it's rec
ommendation, made two years ago
for taxing the railroads of the state
on their valuation, instead Of on the
license fee basis. A strong argument
is made by the commission against
the taxation of credits. Taxation of
inheritance is strongly recommend
ed, and it is hoped that the legisla-
ture will reenact, with proper
changes, the law recently declared
unconstitutional.

such other protection as will result in a
lower rate, and that means in the city
Of Wheeling m Improvement Of the wa.
ter works system.
The conditions obtaining in Wheeling
and the relations existing between it and
insurance companies hold good as t.
other cities and the day is not far dis
tant when demand will be made in
Clarksburg for a better water works sys.
ten, not merely to protect the insurance
companies, but also property. The situa.
ton at Wheeling should arouse Clarks
burg to action 80 that there may moi
be like situation to overcome at time
when compliance with the demand viii
bring hardship. No opportunity should
be overlooked or neglected to make the
system better and more complete. Thi.
can be done by giving the system what
is due it. The patronage ought to BE-
more than sufficient to make it self.
sustaining and the surplus should be
SUFFICIENT to improve it. Money derived
from that source should never be devoted
to another but to the improvement OF
the system and the service.
