INDIANAPOLIS. July 25.-Isaac
Perry. the Oldest and perhaps most
eccentric man In Clark county, has
now nearly completed preparation for
his W burial. He is over 81 wears
old. but his vitality indicates that
ne may live beyond the century
mark.
Mr.. Perry is known throughout the
State as a woman hater," and it is
said that the aversion results from a
love affair in the days of his early
youth. So deep seated is this senti.
ment that he has determined that no
woman shall see his body laid to rest,
and, II necessary, the interment of
his remains will be made secretly in
order to prevent attendance of fe,
males.

that session the President, 1t is UNI

the work to go on without a hitch
for want of provision and ~appropria-

some anti-rebateta nd other railroad

highly probable that the Presidents
ideas with regard to tarif conditions

ANOTHER DEMOCRATIC SCHEME
} EXPOSED.

Grant district Is the home of ex.
Sheriff chas. E. Marley and Prescott.
ing Attorney Scott C. Lowe, ana has
long been known chiefly as a hot-bed
Of Democracy. 1t comes forward this
time with a striking example of what
Democrats win do when they have a
chance Possessed with the same
spirit which prompted the Democratic
editor to try to get a Republican
County Court to keep up the county
levy In order to make taxes high, the
Grant district board Of education de.
cided to take the bull by the horns
and carry out its part of the pro-
gramme. So, with a balance of
s2,427.ss in the teachers fund, half
enough to run the schools for the
year.. the board made only a slight
reduction from last year. and that not.
withstanding one school has been dis.
continued With a balance of $775.22
in the building fund, this Democratic
board doubled the levy of last year,
making an Increase OF 100 pei cent.
To make matters worse this designing
board denied the people a six-months'
term of school after the question had
been voted upon and carried by an
overwhelming majority, only % votes
in the district being against the prop.
osition. Thus. with a levy sufficient
for an eight months term these o.
temptible school officials hold the
term down TO i've months purely for
political purposes. Fortunately there
is a way to bring these smart alecs"
to time. and it ought, and we think
viii he done. A writ of mandamus
viii compel them to grant a six
months term Of school, while they
can be prohibited from collecting
more than five per cent. more money
for school purposes than was raised
last year. We do rot have this years
valuations at hand, but with a de-
crease of 162-3 per cent. in the teach.
ers' fund levy and an Increase OF 100
per cent. in that of the building fund.
it is certain that the board has ex.
ceeded the limit and can be checked
In its wild career. We do not believe
the people will stand for such work
as this when 1t costs them SO much
money. Such political tricksters
ought to be drnmmed out Of the

Much mystery surrounds the meet
Ing D tie leaders at White Sulphur
last week. Those who were present
say that they are not after the scalp
of senator Elkins but want TO hx
thinEs SO that there will be no more
Congressional districts lost by the
Republicans. They say that the pres.
ent machine leadership has placed the
party In a hole and they want to get
1t out US best they can. However. It
is q sure guess that they want to
place some n in the field who can
defeat Elkins for re-election.-Mor;
gantown New Dominion.
The New Dominion Is right when It
says that 4it is a sure guess that they
want to place some one In the field
who can defeat Elkins for reelection"
They want to defeat Senator Eikins
or any one else who may be his Re.
publican competitor. Ran Stalnaker's
crowd has only me object in view. 1t
hopes to get up a division among the
Republicans so that a Democrat can
succeed the Republican Senator. A
Legislature that can elect a Demo
cratic Senator can also repeal the tax
laws. The latter is the desideratum
with Ran and the big corporation he
represents. But a Democratic sena-
tor will not be elected, neither will
the tax laws be repealed. The Re-
publicans are too well united for the
former to happen, and the people are
beginning to think 50 well of the lat
ter that 1t is sure to sand.

Next the directors assert that the
new real estate Assessment next year
will increase taxes. WHAT the In
crease may be Is not known. bdt may
reasonably be based ON the rate OF
increase Of personal property this
year.-c1arksburg Telegram.
The above piece OF nonsense is
from the clarksburg Telegram, which
presumed to criticise the West vir.
ginian a few days ago for saying that
there was nc increase in values"
made by the assessors in listing prop
erty this year. 1t is not surprising
that Democratic editors get away with
a Republican paper that is SO ignor.
ant about a question as to spin of
such statements as the sample given.
1t is preposterous to say that the real
estate increase under the re.assess.
ment will be based on the rate Of in.
crease OF personal property this year.
which the Telegram says in another
place Is about one half. To see how
foolish such a statement is we must
take into consideration two things.
namely. the increase in personally
this year was on property not hereto
fore listed as the assessors by law
were required to assess on the same
basis as last year, while next year the
true and actual value" clause goes
into effect both on real estate and
personal property. On farms the as
sessment in most cases will double
while on town properties the increase
will run from doubling to increasing
from three to Ave times, as It ought

go on the assessors books at from
three to ten times the present values
