son, has the following we'll timed
words to say on Tax Bills and ex-

"The principles Of taxation rec
commended by the Tax Commits
sion and reflected in the bills pre-
pared by that able body, are right
principles and will triumph as
sure as there is God in Heaven,
or as sure as you and | are sitting
here conversing. There may be
few Bull Runs-there may be OBJ
stacles and there have been ob.
stacles that have prevented action
on the Tax COMMISSIONS bills
during the present session, but
the people see in them the right
spirit, fairness and Justice, and the
privileged classes, as represented
by the lobbyists of great corpora.
tions here, can stand up and com
bat public sentiment for a time,
but, not always.
BILLS ARE NOT DEAD.
'These bills are not killed, as
many persons who wish them we'll
believe. The Senate did not adopt
the Colcord resolutions, which set
forth why the bills were undesi-
rable to the Senators and why they
would not be considered. The
resolution that was passed was
one substituted in place of the
Colcord resolution and was to the
effect that the Senate would defer
action on the bills at the present
session. The Senate did not say
that it would decline to consider
the bills at an extra session. The
Senate may have been right in
passing this resolution providing
1t was passed with the right spirit
behind it-a feeling of impair.
tiality to the report of the Com
mission and it's bills, and not inn
PEELED by feeling to kill off the
question with one full swoop. It
can never be killed. 1t is the
growing issue in West Virginia
and the people of the State look 70
the Republican party, which has
done so much toward improving
the government under which our
people live, to take up this ques-
tion of tax reform and settle 1t so
that all will pay their equal share
and no special privileges will be
permitted to be enjoyed by special
classes.
EXTRA SESSION LIKELY.
"The change of sentiment
among the mem bers of the Legis
lature makes 1t probable thai the
Governor will call an extra session
Of the Legislature to consider the
question of tax reform"
Speaking of the majority Of the
members of the legislature being
dictated TO by minority of Re-
publican mem mbers, Mr.. Dawson
said:
at is too bad, IT is distressing.
All of this could have been avoid
ed, had there been caucuses held
frequently at the outset of the
session by the majority of the
members, at which they could
settle their differences among
themselves and gone into open
session with an idea Of what they
proposed doing and with the
determination TO do it. The
party would have been saved
much embarrassment and much
more would have been accomplish
ed at this session than has been
accomplished. The whole body Of
Republican mem bers should have
settled their party's policy among
themselves.
"The Republican party in West
Virginia is confronted by prob
lens of government that are new
problems. They are freighted

Obituary.

Died, near Irondale, Mo Jan. IA.
1908, Daisy LASTLY, of consumption.
Daisy was born March 5, 1889, in Iron
county, Mo-, and was aged 10 years,
10 months and 9 days. These were
the dates connected with a short,
bright life. Her illness extended
through a period Of six or seven
months, but calmness and patience
marked each day Of suffering. Very
often she spoke of certain things she
intended doing when we'll again, and
always expressed in every word and
action such resignation and willing
ness to wait patiently for that time to
come, that an older Christian than
herself has sometimes left her bedside
ashamed OF her own weakness. In
Daisy the prophecy that a little child
should be a leader was fulfilled again.
God gave her not the rosy years of
health again, but an abundant
entrance into His Kingdom Celestial.
She was a Christian, and to the Christ
ian death has no terror. While our
hearts are filled with grief over the
separation, We know God hath done
all things we'll. 1t is sweet consola-
ton when we stand by loved ones
passing away, to know that ere death
comes to them, their head is already
pillowed on the breast OF Christ.
Then how it softens our bitter pain to
be able to say ''Father, Thy will be
done"
A few years ago Daisy joined the
church at Hazel Glen, and it was here
that her funeral was preached by Rev.
A. M. Robinson, after which her re-
mains were taken to the Methodist
cemetery at Caledonia and laid by her
father to await the resurrection.

The drouth in this section is
getting to be serious. A large
number of persons in town have
their cisterns dry, and the wells
are also drying. In the country
the ponds and coulees are dry, and
people and stock are suffering from
want of good. pure water for
drinking and other purposes. Ma
yor Fournet should open hydrauts
of the water works in different
parts of town at certain hours to
allow the poor people to get their
supply of pure, fresh water, in

We learn that some under and
quiet political work was being done
with a view of having the repeal
of the high license ordinance by
Breaux Bridge, st. Martinville
and the parish. Who Inaugural
ted the move we do not know, but
some seemed certain that it would
be repealed. We believe the con-
trary, this ordinance was passed
by the authorities named above,
only we presume, after mature de-
liberation, aud they will not be
ready to repeal it until it has been
given q fair trial. We have not
the least doubt that this high IL
cense law will prove injurious to
the business Of some who are deal
ing in liquors, but the object of
this ordinance is aimed to do good
to the greatest number. If there
was any serious opposition to this
law it should have been made
known before, and not after the
passage of the law.
