Col. George Byrnc's letter to

reading.

tie home stretch. Nothing has been
done yet TO hurt anybody. ana At
hardly seems possible that legs
latiye body that has progressed
through ha + It's natural life With
out doing harm to any thing could
be so very dangerous; yet there are
thinga brewing that threatea the
property OF the state as nothing
sc has threatened { since It was a
state. The worst proposit on of all
10 the one to lay a production tax
on coal, oil and gas, aad the SIZE
of the propo-ed tax tells OF the dcs-
perate straits to which the Repub-
lican party has brought the state.
The bill now beng considered pro-
vide for tax OF per cent on the
gross value OF AL coal mined In the
state. Putting the price of coal
at one dollar a ton, which certainly
as low as a colld be put, we would
have tax of 1 cent ton, which,
on production of forty million tons
a year would bring into the state
treasury four hundred thousand dol
lars year. Take a coal operator
who Is producing al average of a
thousand tons day for each work
Ing day, and his tax would be three
thousand dollars year. Now this
operator has Invested. we WI say,
100000. That would make his tax
per cent per annum This, ia
addition to the regular adyalorum
tax collected for the same property
as 1t appears on the ASSESSORS books
Now the men who have money to
invest in coal lands and the devel-
opment thereof will study a long
time before they viii bring IT into
a state that lays such a tax upon
1t. Is it any wonder the coal men
! over the state are worked up
over the matter and that their rep-
resentative5 are coming here to pro
test against an such unfair IegisIa-
ton?
And do you notice that in all the
talk about ia sing revenues to meet
the growing expenses Of the state
there is never a word about cutting
down expenses to meet the rev
nue.?
It's a merry dance tn present
crowd of half-hammered politicians
Is leading the people of Wet vir-
ginia in these latter days. Each re-
curing legislature Witnesses a crea-
ton OF new olnces, the adding Of
new expenses, and 'ach must witness
the raising of new revenues, the dig
gng up of more money-ever more
money And where wi It all end?
The coal, oil and gas people have
not many votes, as compared to the
farmers OF the state. For the min
