SUCCESSFUL CONFERENCE.

The conference of the county asses-
sors and members o. boards OF equa-
lization and review. arranged for at
Parkersburg by Tax Commissioner
Blue. was a complete success. having
been attended by more than a hundred
OF these officials. who were. without
doubt. benefited by the instruction
given by the speakers qualified to talk
in this school Of instruction" They
will go to their homes better equipped
for their duties and with a clearer in
sight into the meaning and scope of
the laws.
That there are some imperfections
In the present laws is we'll known, and
these were recognized at this meeting
and measures taken for the introduce
ton of remedial legislation and the
proposal OF new measures which
would fortify the State against fur
Their loss through the withdrawal of
revenues heretofore obtained from the
liquor license taxes.
IL Is a source OF qualification that
the conference. through its resolu-
tons. adopted the suggestion thrown
out by The Intelligencer that the leg

conferences OF annual occurrence. and
compulsory attendance on the part Of
the assessors and members Of boards
of review. and that their expenses be
paid by the State. These conditions are
provided for in many of the States.
and in no State are the benefits OF
such conferences so patent as in West
Virginia. Commissioner Blue is to be
congratulated on the successful out
come of this matter. which he under
took on his own initiative. The re-
suits which will follow will be of prsc-
teal benefit to the taxpayers Of the
State as we'll as having added to the
efficiency OF the assessors and other
officials connected with the tax depart
ment OF the government.
