We believe that Governor Dawson
ought to call an extra session of the
West Virginia Legislature to act upon
measures to relieve the people from
the e1actions and injustice Of the rail-
road trust. We offer two sugges-
tons along this line: The first is for
a State railroad commission; the Sec
ond is for a uniform rate Of two cents
a mile tor passenger travel. There
are many other features that may be
added to these two simple propositions.
The people are aroused to the rail-
road situation.

GOVERNOR Folk of Missouri has
issued a statement in which he de-
clares his belief In the propriety of
taking the tax from personal proper
ty and putting the bulk of the bur-
den upon the big corporations.
We think he is right. The rail-
roads, the telegraph, telephone and
express companies and other public
service corporations that enjoy special
privileges ought to pay the greater
part of the taxes. The companies
that mine coal and develop oil and
gas wells, thus extracting the basic
riches of the State, ought to bear
large proportion, and the balance
should be made up from licenses.

MANY WHO UNMARRIED
ARE NOT YET DIVORCED!
Associated Pres. to The Evening Times.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
New York, Aug. 25.-Amazing and
disquieting irregularities in many of
the divorces granted in New York
within twenty years have been dis
covered. So far there is flaw in one
divorce out of every five examined.
These defects were found by William
H. K. Jarvis, of the census bureau,
and his corps of fifteen divorce girls"
sent from Washington for statistics of
divorce. If made known they would
make bigamists of many couples mar
ried in good faith and illegitimatize
many children.
How much and how many of these
discoveries will be made public de-
pends largely on action to be taken
by Mr.. Jarvis. II he applies to the
court for necessary data in thousands
of cases, an order may be granted to
"unseal the papers,"
From 1886 to 1896 divorces were
granted in the Superior court and In
the court Of common pleas, here and
in Brooklyn. The average was about
400 a year for the ten years. Since
