One Of the most interesting topics
being discussed in Berkeley County
at present is whether or not the new
tax laws are going to work out as pre-
dicted by the leaders of the repub.
lican party. That some people are
going to paw more taxes there is no
doubt, but it will be those individuals
who have heretofore been escaping
paving their equal share. These are
the ones on whom the burden will
fall, and on whom else should it fall?
AS a comparison we herewith give
the different levies in the various
districts for the years of 1905 and 1906

only be increased 81. 80. Can be object
TO this? OF course. in none OF these
cases Is the personal property taken
into consideration. III il is assessed
too high it was done by democratic as
SCISSORS, and the republican party can.
not be held responsible for this.
Now, it can be readily seen that if
most of the peoples taxes are re-
duced. some of them must pay more
in order to make up the deficiency.
This will be bourne by the corporation
and property owners whose valna-
tions heretofore have been entirely too
low. As an illustration of this we
will take the residence OF Attorney A.
q. Nadenbousch of this city. In
1905 his property was valued at $1,000
which everybody knows was too low,
but under che new asse ssment it was
raised to $3.50, reasonable figure.

assessment. therefore, he will be COM
PEELED to pay Slip more taxes for
county and state purposes than be did
last year. A great many such exam
plies could be given showing that
where ali increase is made in taxes it
is only where it riphtfully and Justly
belongs.
These facts NAV or may not be worth
reading, but il does go TO show that
the new tax laws are working out
alright, and that the man who objects
to them the most is the man who has
heretofore been paving about one hall
his proprotionate share.
We are in earnest in trying to show

In this great reform of taxation
which the republican party has
wrought in this state we would like
to ask what part the democratic party
has taken in it? What has its leaders
done for tha taypavarsS HoU have

FAMOUS TURKISH ARCH BIOLOGIST
Handy hey HInOred for HIS ~ Years
work OF Research.

CoNsTANTNoPLE. Sept. s.-Hamdy Bey,
director OF the Imperial Museum Of Antiqui-
ties at Stambul, who recently celebrated
the twenty-ffth anniversary OF his activity
as chief Of that famous scientific institu-
ton, has been honored OF this occasion
by nearly every archaeological associa-
ton and by many leading universities
OF Europe. Several universities bestowed
on him the rank Of doctor honoris causa.
The museum ia essentially his creation,
and its ~undisputed scientific importance
is entirely due to him. He prepared and
directed the two archaeological expedi-
lions which led to the discovery OF twenty
one saroophagi, most OF which are MASTER
pieces OF Hellenic sculpture, and Of the
matchless collection OF ancient monu-
ments unearthed in Phoenioia, mostly
at Saida, the Sidon OF the ancients. Il Is
Handy Boy who has given a fresh impulse
to archaeological research in Turkey, which
had beer dormant for many years. The
Turkish soil IL still a perfect mine OF his
tortcal and art treasures, and IL the work
OF disinterring theae treasures of antiquity
is carried on in the Systematic way initiated
by Handy Bey the museum at Stambul
will undoubtedly excel in scientific value
the best museums in Europe.
The Sultan must indeed feel proud when
he sees 20 magnificently the Patronage
which he has bestoN ed on Handy BeV and
his excavations at Sidon have been re-
warded. In the 6tambul Museum one
meets serious students who ha We con e
from many parts OF Europe to see the ST. on
~sarcophagi, just as the FARTHER on marbles

Great mischief was done Up TO very recent
