1t developed yesterday that the ap.

satisfactory to the Director. In a
statement Moore declared himself as
having fought for the appointment OF
Assistant Superintendent Edward j
Kennedy, on account Of the latter's
experience and ability to fill the su:
perlntenGency. The director said
that the mayor wanted Werner, SO he
lad to agree to the appointment.
Under these circumstances a merry
war between the director and superin.
tendent is almost certain.
After Werner had been appointed
he took charge of headquarters. AS.
slstant Superintendent Kennedy and
Inspector X. H. Robinson left the Of
Gce for the day.
During the afternoon Werner re

The Parkersburg State Journal has
a very neat way Of making itself
seem old. 1t stated yesterday that it
was just entering upon Its forty.siXth
volume, and at first blush one would
suppose the Journal to be forty-fve
years old. 1t is not, however, as 1t
completes a volume every six months,
Therefore, the State Journal Is twen'
ty.two aud one,half years old, But
It Is good all the same and deserves
presents and bouquets every six
months, so here is ours. The State
Journal is easily the arst paper in
Parkersburg and It is a close second
to the West virgIniau for the honors
Of the State. May the State Journals
talented editor continue to make
everybody happy with his words of
Wisdom and good cheer.

HOME ESTIMATE.
News has always had high
kf6n of tue Fairmont Times even
TO thGHextent Of believing that the pc
culiar arguments has INDUCED IN
on the tax question we're sincere.
The News, however, regrets to state
that It Is being forced to change its
opinion because Of the plainly pre-
meditated and wilfll intention Of the
Times to print falsehoods concerning
the recent reduction Of the personal
assessment of the News for 1905,
when it knows full well the truth Of
the matter.
In various isues the Times harps
upon the fact that the reduction Of
the personal property assessment Of
the News is an instance of the failure
Of the new tax laws. It deliberately
refrains from publishing the facts
and persisteutly seeks to create the
impression that 1t was the assess
ment under the true and actual value
law which was reduced. The Times
knows that It is not 30.
In q recent issue the Times babbles
foolishly along the lines of this re-
iuction in the assessment being an
instance Of the evil workings Of the
new tax laws. In the same column Of
the same Issue It got rid OF the fol.
lowing:
"The Weston Independent asserts
that the new tax laws are so emf
nently Just and wise that even the
Democrats ure pleased with their
workings. But how can the Demo,
Gratis be pleased with the workings
of laws that have not yet WORKED"
In view Of the fact that the assess.
ment of the News, which was reduced,
vas the personal property assess
ment on the old standard Of value for
1905, if what the Times says is true
that The new tax laws are not WORK
