Chap ter eighteen is money max

for the benefit Of the school fund.
Tax Levfes for School Purposes.
Chapter nineteen is another very
important: bill, relating to education,
reducing the 1evies for the building
fund, and imposing other restrictions.
about the same, and also regulating
the emergency 1evies which are now
auth orized to be made when necessary
20 maintain five months school
| The building fund is the fund to
provide school houses, furniture, fuel,
etc, and under existing law the Boards
of Educa ton can levy q tax OF forty
five cents on the hundred dollars for
this purpose. In the future this levy
is restricted to twenty cents, except
when a new building is being erected
and an added tax is absolutely neces-
sary. The effect of the law is, in nine
out OF every ten districts in the State,
to insure saving of twenty cents in
the tax levies.
The teachers " fund tax remains at
maximum Of fifty cents. If necessary
to levy more to get five months of
school a special or emergency levy is
authorized; but only in order to get
enough money to run the school five
months.
Penitentiary Guards.
Chapter twenty authorizes the APP
pointment and use of penitentiary
guards to convey uconvicts from jails.
A Money Saver Conveying convicts.
Chapter twenty-one Drescribes how
cOnvicts shall be taken from the coun
ties to the penitentiary. This act will
save the State, in about two years, the
entire cost /of the special session of
the Legislature. 1t relieves the sher-
ifs of this duty and imposes it upon
guards from the penitcntiary, thus in
surfing a great saving to the State over
the present method of taking a deputy
sheriff for each prisoner.
State Reform School,.
Chapter twenty-five reduces i'll num-
Der the directors and reOrganizes the
board of the State Reform School. The
act provides that the counties having
inmates shall pay $4,000 annually
toward the education and care Of in
mates from their counties. This law is
based on justice and will save money
both to the counties and to the State
by preventing some of the abuses III
commitments to this institution.
West Virginia Asylum.
Chapter twenty-three is a similar
measure to the above and applies to
the West Virginia Asylum or Home
for Incurables.''
Conclusion.
In this summary OF the several acts
it will be seen that the intention of
the Legislature is to
Lower local tax rates,
ECualize assessment values,
Institute economies in local and
State offices,
Make all corporations list their prop
erty accurately,
Abolish direct State taxes,
Raise State revenues from license
and privilege taxes,
Do justice to the small taxpayers.
Reduce taxation to those now paying
more than their just share,
More justly distribute governmental
burdens.
Make fair and reasonable tax laws,
Systemic and create head to the
taxing system of the State,
Deal fairly and impartially with all
interests.
Make every interest carry its fair
share of taxation.

Chapter fifteen is one of the most
important acts and provides for the re-
Assessment OF all the lands OF the
State in 1905. upon which the tax
levies of 1906 will he laid. No other
assessment Of real estate is provided
for until the year 1909. The as
sessment must be completed and
the books filed on or before August / .
The State Tax Commissioner appoints
one commissioner from each county.
Assistants may be appointed if ap-
proved by the Board of Public Works.
All real estate must be assessed at it's
true value. The law makes the county
court Il board of equalization in each
county, and the State Board of Public
Works acts as q final board of equal
ization. 1t is the most complete sys-
tenn yet devised for occurring an accu-
rate assessment of the real estate
property of this State. The Tax Com
missioner Supervises the commissions
crs' work, heretofore done with little
or no system. This one asscssmeD
holds until 1909, when the work OF as
s"ssing real estate viii be done by the
regularly elected county assessor.

perTlsion Of, and q uniform method in,

BOSTON BEANS IN LONDON.
A Recipe That Would Give Any Gen. udne New Englander Paralysis
 to Try to Follow.

One might persuade an Italian that a digger Indian could learn to cook spaghetti. and one might convince a Chinaman that it does not need an ori- ental chef to prepare chop suey, but no one will ever make a Yankee believe that beans can be properly baked outside of New England, or at least by anybody but New Englander. That conviction will probably strengthen when eastern ers review recent pitiable attempt to impart the secret of Boston beans" to the people of the mother country.
 The recipe for the deleetable dish Is found in the housewives column of Pear sons Weekly, London publication. Soak half pint of small haricourt beans over night, it directs; 'drain next morning. Cover with boiling water, and cook slowly for about two hours. To test If they are done, take up one or two on a spoon, blow on them, and if they are done the skins crack.
 Drain the beans when cooked" tho recipe goes on blithely, turn into deep buttered dish, add a tablespoonful of finely chopped onion as well as salt, pep per, and half pint of tomato pulp. Cover closely and bake In slow oven for four hours.
 About a quarter of an hour before serving, remove the lid and put in an ounce of butter. Serve in the pot in which the beans were cooked"
 Haricot beans. soaked and parboiled to the vanishing point, but baked only four hours and without pork, at that! This is bad enough. but the loyal New Englander will most bitterly resent the insinuation that half pint would suf- flee If Boston beans' were really in question. Paul Bourget did not probe very deeply into the domestic institu- tions of this country. but even he learned better than that.
 At Marblehead,' Bourget wrote in a series of random jotting printed in a Paris newspaper, "a curious earthen vessel called beans-pot. 1t and similar being used, am informed. to prepare the Sunday breakfast of families; ca pacity of the beans-pot, about two gal Ions"

The fact that the Wall Street Jour nal attempts to justify the existence of trusts is Of no consequence, but 1t is of great importance that nearly all of the trusts, with over $20,O0O O0o, GOO of capitalization, are illegal combina- tions and would probably be so de- clared if they were brought to the bar of jnsuce. Our easy-going attorney general. says one writer, however, got frightened when he won suit against one of them, really begun by the gov ernor of Minnesota, and hastened to tell them that the government was not going to run amuck" in it's opposition to trusts. Wall street interpreted this statement, and other assurances that were said to come direct from the White House, to mean that there would be no more suits begun against these legal and criminal trusts this year, and proceeded to put up the prices of trust stocks. The supreme court decision was given on Monday; on the following Saturday the prices of these trust stocks closed higher than they had sold for many weeks before. Even the stocks of the Northern Se- curities Go, against which the supreme court decision was rendered, sold up about eight points within one week from the rendering of the decision.
