IL our issue of August 26th we
published a lengthy article signed
by several prominent men of the
state giving their reasons why the
report Of the Tax Commission should
not be enacted into law. This week
we reproduce the speech of Hon. w
+. Hubbard delivered at the recent
meeting of the West Virginia Ed.
itoral Association at Charleston
Mr.. Hubbard is recognized as being
one of the ablest lawyers in the State
aud bis defense of the Commission's
report is certainly worth reading
This tax subject is a grave one and
the ADVANCE proposes to do every
thing in its power to enliphten Its
readers in regard TO same. We be.
lieve all agree Except the very
wealthy or ''tax dodger'' that the
wealthy corporations do not pay
their just proportion of the taxes
an such laws recommended by the
Tax Commission that will compel
them TO do so should be enacted.

Women IN Industry.

The Massachusetts Bureau Of Statistics
has Just issued report on sex in In,
dustry'' which Is instructive and aleo
suggestive In the last ten years the;
number Of self-supporting women has
more than doubled. So, alas! has the
number of female children at work In
the Bay State. At present, nearly one.
third Of all the "gainful workers. Of
Massachusetts are women.
This large increase in industry for Voc
men does not follow the old lines. The
Massachusetts, workers In factories have
only increased % per cent: in domestic
service, 30 per cent; and in teaching. IS
per cent. Woman Is aimingA higher; she
wants a place in business and the pro-
LESSONS, and she is getting it. There u
fessional workers. and Of nearly 80 per
partners or stockholders In business en-
terprises.
Womans first footing in industry was
that Of the willing worker who takes the
undesirable and lily paid job rather than
no job at all. These figures show that in
Massachusetts,. at least, she has gotten
mounting steadily. 1ndustriaiiy. she e
succeeding. But there are some other
Massachusetts figures, not included in
the industrial statistics, that are not re-
assuring on tho sociological side. In
these same last ten years the marriage
rate has declined, IL: Massachusetts,. from
nineteen to seventeen per thousand, while
divorces have increased from one in
every tWonty-eiEht marriages to one II
every eighteen; and the birth-rato has
fallen perceptibly.-Harper's Bazaar.

And save your ne alth.
Saving Of Seed Corn.

Il gives but little trouble, yet re-
suits in great profit, for farmers to
90 into their corn fields after the corn
is ready to gather and select the very
best ears for seed. Let the quality
selected be as uniform as possible as
to the grain. Ears with grains closely
set, taken from stalks that have pro-
duced two good ears, are to be pre-
ferred. These ears 80 selected should
be hung up in dry place with the
shucks pulled back. By making the
selection IN the fall much time is
saved when the period of planting
comes or; besides, careful selection
will result in greatly improving the
quality of the crop. A great many
crops of corn are grown in which a
dozen varieties may be found with
every conceivable mixture. Pure
white corn, not too hard and finty,
on large ears and small cobs, is the
best for all purposes of the farm.

Growing Of Cotton in Africa.

Liverpool, Sept. 4 The news re-
ceived from Lagos, British West
Africa, Sept. 2, that the development
of the cotton trade in the interior
part of Africa was 80 great that the
local railroad officials had been oblig-
ed to run extra trains in order to
bring down the large supplies to the
coast, somewhat surprised the cotton
interests here, cotton growing in
West Africa being regarded as in a
largely exprimental stage. Thirty
tons of cotton from Lagos arrived in
the Mersey this week and was pro-
nounced to be of excellent quality.
The seed sent out from here and
sown in June is expected to yield
1000 bales. The first delivery of
this crop is expected at Christmas.
If the cotton growing experiment is
successful the cultivated area will be
increased as rapidly as possible.

Created a. Sensation.

London, September 1S.-No politi-
col event in the memory of the pres
ent generation has created such a
sensation as the retirement of Colo
NAL Secretary Chamberlain. The
resignation is likely to cause far reach
ing results in the politics of Great
Britain. Itis also probable that an
appeal will be made to the country
by the Baifour ministry in the near
future. Chamberlain stood for pre-.
ferential tariff in favor of the colon
les, but as it would impose tax on
food stuffs, the scheme did not prove
popular.
The resignation had the effect to-
day of steadyihg the security markets.
Business, however, is at standstill.
The Pail Mall Gazette this after
noon says: sThe present crisis is the
most extraordinary in the whole his
tory of constitutional government.
What will happen next no one can
forecast with any degree of absolute
certainty"

A Pursative Pleasure.

If you ever took DeWitt's Little
Early Risers for biliousness or con-
stipstion you know what purgative
pleasure is. These famous little
pills cleanse the liver and rid the
system of all bile without producing
unpleasant effects. They do not
gripe, sicken or weaken, but give
tone and strength to the tissues and
organs involved. W. 81. Howell, OF
Houston, Tex, says mo better pill
can be used than Little Early Risers
for constipation, sick headache, etc. .
