EDITORIAL
WHITE Is RIGHT

AT the meeting of state bankers
at Parkersburg recently Governor
White, as banker and as governor,
was down for speech. He made
it and as the chief executive of the
laws Of this state he called attention
to the fact that banks as we'll az
other corporations were dodging
their just aud proportiona,e taxation.
Some one or more bankers with more
money than either brains or breeding
hissed him. This was enough. He
charged them, as an association, of
having a paid lobby at Charleston
last winter for the purpose of defeat
ing any and all Legislation that would
make them pay their just proportion
of taxation. He was right. Such
lobby was there. Everyone fami-
liar with the history of the last
Legislature knows that the majority
of the senate was in the grasp of
corporations, and that even Judge
Reese Blizzard, United States dis.
trict attorney for the northern dis
trict, did not consider that he lower
ed his dignity when he came there
as an attorney for the Standard Oil
company and by specious pleas
helped to kill the bill which would
have kept West Virginia's greatest
resource, natural gas, within the state
that factories should come to it and
to West Virginia where now the gas
is being taken out to other states to
run their factories and build up those
states at the expense Of West Vir-
ginia and Its people. AT one time
lawyers representing over $50. 600
in legal yearly salaries stood before
one committee fighting the proposed
tax reform consideration. The
governor was the peoples champ
ion and his suggestions were not
treated with common respect. Meth
er was his personality as chief exec
utive paid the respect due the office.
The Advance does not attempt to say
that the tax reform measures were.
as written, what is needed. But
they are along the right line and
failure to consider them was an in.
suit to the men who male the report
aud snub to the people.
The only criticism that has been
made againt Governor White is that
his speech was i'm bad taste. If 80
Of what taste were the Kisses? 1t was
not in bad taste. He was a banker
as well as a guest. He saw his op-
por;unity to speak plainly in behalf
of the people and 1T was his duty as
and honest man to speak as he did.
When hissed the fighting blood of
the Governor was aroused and he
said:
~ don't care what happeus-I don't care
what becomes of the political party to which
belong. BY God, this question will be fought
out and fought out 20 a finish.
"You can't throttle the people and you can't
throttle the right"
No man ever spoke truer words
than these. No man or combina.
tion of men, on earth, can throttle
right. More's the pity the state
has not more men of Governor
Whites courage. White is right
and right is might.

CEREDO WAYNE CO., w. VA. WEDNESDAY,. JI1NE = !?
Want An Extra Session

Resolutions adopted by the farm.
ers Institute of Wayne county, June
and 9, 1908.
WHEREAS, in the opinion Of this
Institute 1t is exceedingly important
tor the interest of the farmers who
pay taxes in this State that n special
session of the West Virginia i.egis-
lature be held in the near future.
tor the purpose of considering the
report of the State Tax Commission
and the bills submitted by it, to-
gether with such questions concern.
ing the assessment and taxation laws
OF this State as may arise in the
consideration of these or any other
measures designed to reform the un-
just provisions of our present laws,
whereby the grossest inequality in
the distribution of the burdens of
taxation prevails in the State, and
WHEREAS, 1t is the opinion of the
Governor, the Tax Commission and
others who have studied the aues.
tion, that 1t is an unnecessary, and
therefore an unjust, burden to levy
any direct tax upon the real and
personal property of the citizens for
the support of the State Govern
ment; and therefore, the 35 cents
tax on the one hundred dollars can
and should be abolished, and
WHEREAS, The Governor has
signitied his intention to assemble
the Legislature IN extra session for
this purpose, provided there is mani
tested on the part OF the people of
this State such an intrest in said
session az to indicate a general de-
sire therefor and popular approval
of the the disposition of the Gov
nor to call it, and
WHEREAS, The House of Dele
gates, by resolution, expressed a
,, desire for such an extra session,
thereby rendering it necessary only
that a sufficient number of State
Senators similarly express them
selves to justify the Governor in
convening the Legislature in extra
session, therefore be it, by this
Institute.
RESOLVED, That Hon. w. ii. IL.
Cook and Hon. John Y. York, State
Senators from this Senatorial Dis
trict, be an are hereby requested and
urged to communicate to the Cover
nor their desire for an extra session
in the near future; and that they be
further requested and urged to sup
port the Governor in his efforts to
reform the system of taxation and
assessment of this State on the lines
laid down by the Tax Commission :;
and further that they be requested
and urged to make public through
the newspapers of this district their
views upon this subject, that the
people may know where they stand
upon thus vital question.
RESOLVED, That copy of these
resolutions be sent to the Ceredo
Advance, Wayne News and the West
Virginia Farm Review, for publica-
ton.

LAST weeks Advance said 'Ghe
people of this section wanted a mem
Der of the county court, and at once. +"
That was an error of the types.
What they want and what they
insist upon is that the county court
give this section a member Of the
county board of health-a man who
has his sense of duty developed to
that degree which robs him Of
cowardice when it comes to the
danger connected with his duty in
handling virluent contagious dis
eases. Further, if DR.. BanfieId is
afraid of smallpox as he is reported
to be and fails to do bis duty az he
did in the case Of the negro who
died here, let him for conscience
sake resign. If he will not resign
the county court has a duty to per-
form-that of removing him.

The Powder Springs people
should not be too::fast in their ex-
ultations over their supposed ac-
QUESTION of the Seaboald. If that
railroad is built by Powder Springs
it will be in opposition to it's char
ter which, according to advertise
ments running until recently III
the Marietta, Dallas and Cedar
town papers, require that the main
line shall extend from Rockmart
to Marietta. A recent number of
the Constitution states that the
charter of the Chattahoochee Ter
minal Company to extend from
Atlanta to Marietta, application
for which was made by the Sea-
boards attorneys, will shortly be
granted When this charter is
secured it is very probable that
work will Immediately begin on
the line from Rockmart to Mari
eta and from Marietta to Atlanta.
President Smith of the L. & n.
stated positively about a month
ago that his line would not build
from Marietta to Atlanta yet a
recent issue of the Railway Age
declares that this Is one of the i'm
provements to be made by that
road. AS rule you may expect
railroads to do just the reverse of
what they declare. Don't give up,

board trains rolling by Lost Noun

One has often specialized as to
what would happen in hold-up
if the passengers should resist the
robber or robbers. The answer to
this comes from Los Angeles, near
which place a hoSd-up took place
Saturday night, and passenger
opened fire upon one of the three
robbers, whereupon the robbers
began returning the fire, shooting
into the crowded car, killing one
man and wounding three other
men The lesson this teaches is
that resistance is unwise, in that
it exposes a great many people to
danger of death, even if successful
