THE STATE TAX PRACTICALLY
ELIMINATED.

In the year 1911 the voters OF West
Virginia will pay two and one-half
cents per hundred dollars state tax.
In 1904 they paid thirty-fve cents
per hundred dollars state tax.
Thus the gradual but sure approx
nation OF the ideal aimed at in the
new tax laws in West Virginia can
be seen. The essential principle Of
the new tax laws was the practical
elimination of the state tax. That tax
bore unequally on counties and sec
tons because regardless OF every
precaution. local assessors almost in
variably favored their counties. and
an honest assessment was difficult IL
not impossible. TO secure. In place OF
the direct state tax. revenues have
been provided for the state by the
Increase Of license taxes for special
privileges and by the adequate as.
sessment OF public service corpora
tions. This year the farmer or bust
ness man in West Virginia who owns
ten thousand dollars worth OF prop
erty will pay $3.50 in taxation TO the
state OF West Virginia. Eight years
ago he would have paid $500. In
1912 practically all OF the taxes paid
by citizens OF Ohio county or any
other county in the state will be paid
10 the authorities OF their own coun-
ties. and will be distributed in their
own counties. SO far as the state
government itself is concerned, the
taxation upon any individual or upon
any property will be a negligible
quantity. Thus the greatest and most
radical reform in tax conditions has
been gradually achieved. The burden
Of the maintenance Of the state gov
eminent has been shifted 10 a large
extent from property and Individual
taxpayers 10 the public service cor
porations enjoying special privileges.
and to the businesses and occupa.
lions that enjoy special privileges.
These are the proper and just sources
OF revenues for the state. As these
sources OF revenue become more
fruitful we can confidently expect fur.
Their reductions in the state tax. This
tax may not be entirely eliminated.
