On the first page of this pape,
will be found a very interesting
article to all West virginians. II
deals with the subject of the re-.
port of the Tax Commission. The
article is signed by a number oil
prominent men from all parts OF
the State. Democrats and Repub.
licans. We were requested to pub.
lish it that the public may consider
some of the reasons they present
in opposition to the proposed new
law, as against the argument ad.
vanced by the friends of the meas
ure. This address is bound to call
forth a reply from those who are
ohampioning the Tax Commission
measures and the subject is sure
to be one of paramount interest
from now on.

Omlnous Sign of War.

London Cable.-The Daily Nails
Kobe correspondent asserts that the
japanese army authorities have re-
quested the newspapers to refrain pub
fishing news concerning the movement
OF troops or other war-like prepara-
tions. In an editorial, the Daily Mail
says it regards this as a practical cen
sorship and an ominous sign. Editor
ial articles in other morning papers
express concern over the movement Of
foreign war-ships toward the far East
and particularly over the statement
that the United States marines have
been ordered to Corea, fearing some
Unforeseen incident may precipitate
events.
On the other hand, the speech deliv-
cred by NJ. Delcasse. the French For
eign Minister. in the Senate Saturday,
(saying that nothing had occurred to
make him place faith in the reports
that were being published daily. Is
looked upon as reassuring and 1t Is be-
lieved that efforts Of the powers may
still be successful in preserving peace.
