NUMBER l6.
An Extra Session.

The information filtered to the pub
lie through private sources to the
effect that the referees i'm the adjust
ment Of the tax commission measures
have reached conclusion which ia
agreeable to all Republican interests
and meets the approval of Governor
White is practically true.
The gentlemen who have had
these matters under consideration.
Messrs. sturgiss, Dayton, Hubbard
and Blizzard represented the extreme
elements of opinion on the matter
under discussion. Two were staunch
advocates of a complete system of
tax reform that would modernize
the mode of procedure in line with
the successful departures in other
States, while the other two were
persistent In their efforts to see that
nothing is done to disturb tho splen-
did business conditions now prevail
ing. When these gentlemen got
together it was ascertained that very
little difference existed i'm their
general deductions. Radical news
papers on both sides have boen re-
sponsible for the public fear and
general distrust, while these gentle
men were endeavoring as advocates
of the veal of the State to arrive at
the best results. 1t seems that while
these loud sounding dissention,
tended to disturb conditions i'm some
quarters and create an opinion that
the Republican party would wreck
itself on the shoals of tax reform,
these gentlemen kept straight in
their course and evolved what is
certain to be the law of the future,
and the declaration Of West Virginia
Republicanism.
All this means, of course, that
there will be an extra session Of the
legislature. The Mail IL violating
no confidence when it expresses the
belief that an extra session of the
West Virginia legislature will con-
vene in Charleston the latter part of
April or very early in May. And
when it does united Republican
party will present its conclusions
with the certainty that the people
have been consulted and that the
interests of the State are properly
safeguarded.
1t will not do at this time to detract
from those who have had an impor-
tant part in these conclusions. Gov.
ernOr White has had to sink some
personal convictions in the consum-
nation Of this result. Those who
know and appreciate his qualities are
not surprised that he has been equal
to the occasion. For those who
criticise an examination will never
be necessary. Enough TO know that
the great body of West Virginia
Itepublicanism appreciates to the
fullest extent the things which have
operated to bring about this crafty
ing result and the almost certain as-
surance that it means the swelling Of 4,
the majorities in the progressive
counties and the continued confusion
of the common enemy.-Cbarlsston
