Fruits of the Legislative Session

The late session of the West Vir
glnis Legislature failed to accom-
plush many things that were expect.
ed. 1t did not give us a railroad
commission bill it did not give us
a primary election law; it did not
provide for the complete abolition
of the direct state tax; it did not
impose taxes on public service cor.
porations, which it might well have
imposed. Nevertheless some good
was accomplished, and for this let
u- be thankful.
A two cent railroad fare bill was
passed. Although the Intelligencer
has expressed doubts of the con
stitutionality of this measure, it will
be sincerely glad if 1t stands the
test OF the courts, and good lawyers
declare that 1t will. The direcl
state tax has been cut from 81 cents
to cents while the saloon licenses
have been increased and new
recordation tax imposed. A corrupt
practices act has been passed tina;
ought to be strong influence for
honest campaigns.
This is not bad record of achieve
ment. 1t looks small--pitifully
snall-compared to what might
have been done, and compared to
What the people expected; but after
all, 1t represents a distinct gain.
There never was session of the
Legislature at which corrupt corpo-
rate influences Aourlshed more
openly and brazenly. No conceal
ment was made of the fact that
there WAS money in abundance for
the defeat Of popular measures.
Men with the mark Of the dollar
stamped on their brow stood up
brazenly and proclaimed their own
virtue, while opposing both Sc
cretly and openly every measure
that threatened to compel a rail.
road or coal, oil or gas company
to pay a dollar more tax, or to do

But IN spite Of all this progress

INVESTIGATE DEATH OF WAKE.
Mystery Surrounds Explosion O
Sewer Gas at GoIdfield.

Goldfield, Nev.-rhe coroner's jury,
sitting upon the remains of James F.
Wake, the co1ored man killed in the
Nixon block, was unable to determine
definitely whether death resulted from
the explosion of sewer gas from the
basement closet, or from fire. The
weight of the evidence favored the
latter theory. There is no reason to
believe Wake either aimed at suicide
or intended to blow up the block. The
basement was dark and he lighted a
match to get his bearings, being killed
either by the explosion of the escap-
Ing gas or rendered helpless thereby
and then burned to death
