Charleston.--Close observation of
the actions of officials of the war de-
partment and the movement of troops
to the Mexican border leads to a
strong belief that preparations are be-
ing made for big game. Whatever
may be the reason for assembling a
large part of the army in Texas, it is
firmly believed by militia officers of
the state Who have kept in close COM
munication with Washington that
some real warfare is expected.
What Is looked upon as some in
side information was given out by a
regular army officer, who was in COM
I'VE want some of your officers to OBJ
serve the maneuvers which will be on
in a few days" said the officer, so
that they can instruct your militia.
We may need you in the near fu-
ture."
Conditions Discussed.
The officer spoke further tending
to show that the matter of assembling
the organized militia has been dis
cussed in official circles. He said
The First and Second West Virginia
regiments are brigaded under the war
department classification with the
Fourteenth Pennsylvania, with Par
keTsburg as the designated place OF
rendezvous. Should there be call for
the militia, those three regiments
would mobilize at Parkersburg prepar-
atory to moving to the front, and
would there recruit to their maximum
strength.
IF I, were in command now of a
company of militia / would try to get
line on every man in my section who
has had previous military experience,
and would try to enlist them or have
them ready to enlist in case of call.
II West Virginia you, have two regi-
ments. 1t would not be good plan to
combine the two in case one regiment
We're called out. If one is called,
there is little doubt that the other will
follow soon. Instead, immediate steps
should be taken to recruit the ranking
regiment to full fighting strength in
order to have it ready for cah in the
near future"
The Second regiment is the ranking
one in this state, owing to the senior
ity of its commanding officer. The reg
iment is in command of Col. Charles
E. Morrison, of Parkersburg. The
First regiment is in command Of Col.
Clarence F. Jolliffe, of Littleton.

HANLEY ON FULL VALUE.
The Governor Makes Plain the Law and
the Advantages Of Full Value
Assessmenf

/ F-AN~~4AAA~tAA4
The course Of the Idaho Daily
Statesman and the Evening Capital
News in the matter Of assessment Of
property at its real value continues
to be an invitation to the assessors
Of the state to disregard their Official
duties, and the absurd misrepresenta-
tons continually repeated IN these
newspapers possibly demand some
answer.
That the plan of assessing at low
value, which necessarily entails
high tax rate, is against the best IN
terests of the state, is not denied
and cannot successfully be denied,
nor can it be denied that it takes the
same amount of money to carry on
the state government and the various
county governments no matter wheth-
ther the assessed value is high or
low.
We are compelled to raise SO
much money for governmental pur-
poses. regardless Of the valuation
for property in the state. After hav-
ing persistently misrepresented the
attitude Of those who desire to en-
force the Law, these two newspapers
have at last fallen back onthe sole ar
gument that compliance with the Law
viii relieve the mining companies
and railroads from their share of the
burden Of taxation.
Not satisfied with attempting to IN
fuence weakened assessors to vio-
late their sworn official duties, these
papers are now trying to develop a
feeling of resentment on the part of
the people towards those who favor
the enforcement of the Law by abso-
lutely false representations as to the
effect of the proposed raise in as
sessed values.
So far as the railroads are con-
cemed, it is the announced intention
of the State Board of Equalization to
assess this class of property, and
all other classes of property coming
under their jurisdiction, at his full
value. To intimate that the State
Board of Equalization viii not do
this is an insult to every member of
the board. 1t is a statement absolu-
tely false and without any founda-
ton on which to build.
Speaking for myself personally,
and I believe for every other mem
Der of the State Board Of Epualiza-
ton, I viii see that the the railroad,
telegraph and telephone companies
viii have their property assessed at
its full value and viii not be permit
ted to evade their full share of the
burden Of taxation.
These newspapers, however. con
tend that the mining companies will
escape their share of taxation if pro-
perty is assessed at its full value.
An inspection of the Law and es-
pecially a consideration Of the So
called arguments Of these papers up
On this proposition viii convince any
man Of the absurdity Of
such contention.
The statutes Of this state prescribe
hat mining companies shall be as
sessed upon the net income derived
from their mines. This is a positive
injunction of the law.
Very many Of our people believe
