practice and Immediately gut q
stop to it. This school district is
amply able to buy such things,

Death of Mr.. W. W. winger.

Mr. William w. Winger, aged
80 years, died April 10, 1906, at
his home, six miles northeast of
Point Pleasant. He leaves a de.
voted MOTHER Mrs. Mary j. Wing
or, and an only brother Mr.. b. o.
Winger, of this place, to mourn
his untimely death. The funeral
service was conducted by Rev. Car
der, assisted by Rev. Wingrove,
from Bethel U. B. Church, Thurs.
day, April 18th. The church was
filed with people, as he was loved
and his loss mourned by the entire
community. His suffering was
great and continued, bnt borne with
patience and fortitude. He gave
abundant evidence of his faith in
God, and left his loved ones the
sure hope OF meeting him in the
beyond. After death seemed to be
inevitable, he not only assured
them of his Willingness to die, but
prayed God to take him homo; and
during the last few days of bis
sickness, he sang praises and would
talk with his friends concerning
the home beyond and plead with
them earnestly about their soul's
welfare. He seemed to enter into
heavenly joys ere the body's suffer-
ing ceased, SO that death came as
q happy boon to release the soul
from his tired and wasted body,
To the Christian there is no death,
Just the end of this earthly strife;
Just God calling his faithful ones 2;
To inherit q better life -,~sy..l

ASSESSMENTS ARE INCREASED
Mason County is Raised Fifteen
Per Cent.

Per Cent.
The State Board of Public
Works has completed its labors,
and the result is not surprising
The valuations as fixed by the
County Court were decreased in
but three counties, namely: Hamp-
shire, Monongalia and Morgan.
All the other counties were in
CREASED except Calhoun, Doddridge
Grant. Greenbrier. Hardy, Lin
ooln. Lewis, Ohio, Pleasant, Poca-
hontas, Taylor, Upshur. Wayne
and Wefzel. The 1904 valuation
rescued an aggregate of 1885,
6S2, which was increased by the
true and actual value assessment to
$422.671.5O3. and further increas-
ed by the State Board of Public
Works to $475. 153. 329.
The state board of public works
has increased the assessment of
the real estate in Mason county
fifteen per cent above the amount
fixed by the county court.
Under the last decennial valua-
ton by the state which prevailed
in 1904, the real estate assessment
of Mason county was upwards of
three millions The fake reform
assessment of 1905 jumped this
value to a sum of nearly six mil
lions of dollars.
So the situation, as it now stands,
may be summarized thus:

THE TRUE AND ACTUAL VALUE

The farmer has got his tax list,
Sent from Charleston down the State,
Where resides the mighty Dawson
And the Tax Commissioner great.
He knows just what he will pay on
When he has read the little list,
Then he will figure with his pencil
In his hard and horny fist.
He will study and will worry
Till he does his brain great harm,
Finding the true md actual value
OF the products of his farm;
or eve ything that creepeth
And breathes the breath of life;
And he rather expects he will have
To give the value of his wife.
He will have to give the value
OF his sheep and of his pigs;
OF his worn out machinery
And dilapidated rigs;
OF his long haired lousy cattle,
OF his chickens and his hogs;
OF the old cat and her kittens,
And his old flea bitten dogs.
OF the saw logs on the hill side,
And his bricks and building rock;
OF his knives and forks and watches
And his old grandfather's clock,
OF his jews-harp and his fiddle;
OF his axe and of his maui
He must give the real value
Nothing miss, he must give it all.
When he gets the total value
Figured out twill take his breath,
Then some one will give the value
Of this poor old farmers death.
And the first thing he viii ask
On the resurrection morn
Will be, what is the real value
OF that toot from Gabriel's horns''
And when he sees st. Peter
Standing at the pearly gate,
He will ask the real value
or that bunch of keys so great
When he passes through the gateway
And is safe within the fold,
He will ask the real value
OF the streets of pure gold.
OF the throne and the halos,
OF the harps with golden strings,
OF the value of the angels,
And of the feathers in their wings
But they will answer every question
And there'll be no one to frown
When he asks the real value
OF the stars that's in his crown.
Then what of Mr.. Dawson,
And his friends of tax reform.
They will have taken their last junket
To a climate where it is warm.
The trip will cost them nothing,
Neither wi they need a pass,
There they know the real value
OF the coal and oil and gas.
