Thus far there has been no com
plant about or against the work OF
the land assessors in this county,
The taxpayers have the utmost con-
4idence in them and believe they are
men who will do their duty, without
fear, favor or affection, and from
what can be learned of their work
and books they have proven them
selves worthy of the trust. They
are conscientious in the discharge OF
their duties, and the state tax com
missioner will not have cause for
complaint, because they have exer-
cised fairness, due diligence, good
Judgment and carefulness. Their
books, of course, are awaited with
interest, but the assertion is ventur-
ed here that the taxpayers OF the
county generally will be satisfied
with their work, and should there De
any mistakes or determinations
made through lack of judgment, the
county court is the proper redress
and the matter can even be taken ~
higher. But little of this is expect
ed to be done, however.

From the reports that are beng
sent to the state tax commissioner,
it is seen that many of the counties
of the state were assessed remark
ably low on their lands under the old
tax laws, and thus it is not strange
that such counties as Harrison;
which we're fairly well assessed ana
very highly so compared to some OF
the counties, bore the brunt OF the
burden of state taxation. The ne"
laws will even this up to a great ex-
tent. There is reason to believe
that the percentage OF. increase IN in
land values in Harrison county VIII
not reach the high figures reached :sy he'd
IN some other counties. 1t will not

FAIRMoNT LAGs.

As Clarksburg is passing from the.
greatest year in its history, as shown
by statistics at the post Office, rail
road offices, wholesale houses, fac
tories and numerous other places
and is preparing to enter an even
buster and more successful year, the
Fair1nont papers deplore conditions
IN that city, in the following fash
ion and are advising economy as
precaution against business failure
and bankruptcy
esFor six years there has been un-
usual activity in every line of bust,
ness. Factories. furnaces, mills and
all kinds of industrial plants have
been running on full time, creating
an unlimited demand for coal. labol
and all kinds of material that enter
into the manufacturing business
Already this unhroken season Of
prosperity has continued longer thar
there was any reason to expect, or
mast experience would lead us tc
hope for. The long season OF actlv
siity has stimulated all kinds of bust
ness to its utmost capacity. Every
man who could muster a few thous-
and dollars was opening coal mine
or establishing a manufacturing
plant. There are reasons to fear
that the thing has been overdone anf
a reaction is bound to follow. 1T :
long lane that has no turn. In
the very nature of things bushes
depressions follow business booms

ICTk1
ness depressions would not hurt SC
much if the people would prepar'
for them. During the brisk time
they contract habits of extravaganza
which cannot be maintained DURING
seasons of depression. There has t.
be a scaling down all along the line
and some things must be cut out en-
tirelv. The trouble is that few per.
sons will deny themselves when the
pinch comes. They insist on spend
ING as much money when the income
is small as they were accustomed t.
spending when it was larger, and
somebody is bound to get hurt. ) us
at this time all the signs point to
depression in business. and the deck
should be cleared for action. Inc
long season of flush times has stlmu
lated an overproduction and the sur
Dlus must be worked of. Boon
4 prices and boom habits have pre-
vailed for long time and matter'
must settle back on bedrock basis,
Just to what extent it is going t"
hurt depends on how well we are
prepared to meet it. Whether the
depression will be Of long or short
duration nobody can foretell. BY
observing due economy we will he
prepared for the worst, and if the
dull season should fortunately be OF
brief duration we will be that much
ahead.

Little Bermuda Farms.

Country Life in america: Farms 4
the Bermudas are only tiny detachaa
fields In the pleasant hollows where tba
accumulation Of vegetable matter ana
Of washings has made a shallow so;,
In these little islands one sees fields
from the size Of a parlor floor to thai
of two acres-the latter size being IN
common. It is strange enough to thas
visitor from more ambitious lands Al
see a patch Of onions or lilies or nota-I
toes only a few feet square brayely as.

yard or by the highway. But although
these fields are diminutive, they are
numerous, and the combined o,,tn,,t
makes up a large trade in Bermudans
products in the New York markets. for
probably nine-tenths of the produce
except bananas, finds a market there IN
spite of the duties. The lands vary
wonderfully in price-from very litt,e
for the exposed elevations to $500 nerf
acre for good pieces in the little Wales
The high price Of these pieces and lin.
tied amount of land on the islands
there are less than 10000 acres all told
has enforced a very high state OF chi
tivation of the lands. The islands
comprise a series of smart garden-hol-

walled roads, white SNUG houses ana
profusion of compact garden growth
all unite to make the place a dimin.

PASSING Of the Fire Enoine.

Harper's Weekly: The recent com
pletion Of q powerful pumping plant
and a system of independent high
pressure fire mains In the city of Phil
a%delphia to lake the place of horse or
motor driven steam fire engines is
noteworthy as indicating the tendency
toward Capitalization in modern me-
chanicai engineering practice. While
IT may be too much to say that it
marks the beginning of the disappear
ance of h fire engine In large cities,
nevertheless, 1t seems quite clear that
such a plant can furnish more effective
protection to a given area, and that,
aside from Its Initial cost, it is less
expensive to maintain. The advantage
to the citizens is shown by the fact
that for the district In Philadelphia
protected by the new plant insurance
rates have been decreased is cents
per 500, and with the increased ef1ci-
ency of the system a further decrease
of 10 cents is promised.
In outline the new pumping system
may be described briefly as follows:
At consists of a number of powerful
pumps driven by gas engines and To-
Gated in q single building ~ to 140
feet. and using an independent and
never falling supply of water derived
from the Delaware river. This is dis
tributed under high pressure through
a network OF specially constructed
mains. ~aggregating some nine miles In
length, over the selected territory
which includes about 425 acres. The
hose is attached directly to hydrants
of q special pattern, and it is possible
to send four8streamS to the top of the
highest slE yscrane IN Philadelphia.
The plant is said to take the place Of
more than forty engines, and the
pressure furnished and consequent eff
hciency is far beyond that of ordinary
