Pledges Filed.
TWO GREAT THINGS
Star Lit Heavens Above and the Moral
Code OF Earth.

Code OF Earth.
"Two things, wrote ImlanIel
Kant, fill the mind with ever increas-
ing awe and admiration-the star-li1
heavens above and Srhe moral law
within His wonder might have in
creased if ne had foreseen the results
Of modern investigator into the Gus
toms OF savage .ribes. No matter how
low and primitive the tribe, it has its
moral code which can not be violated
with impunity.
Perhaps the code requires members
of the tribe 20 deyour their dead par
ents. Then cannibalism becomes
duty which must be observed. The
Ausr rralian, bushmen regard It as
wrong to kill the animal which is
supposed to be the protector Of the
tribe. In old Japan it was right for
man VINO had been seriously affFont-
ed to kill himself on the doorsteps OF
The offender. A famous Japanese
commander, General Nogi. committed
suicide as a. sacred obligation when
the emperor died year or two ago.

Special 10 The Herald and News
Columbia, June 4.-The Columbia
correspondent G.: the News and Cour-
ier on Wednesday night wired his pa
per that John G. Richards, Jr, now
railroad commissioner and a candi-
date for governor, had made the fol-
lowing sta ement giving his position
in the United S ates senatorial race:
81 am going to vote for Cole. l..
Blease for United States senator be-
cause believe he is nearer the mass
es OF the people than the other man."
'iThe statement" says the News and
Courier's Columbia correspondent,
"was made in answer to direct
question as to whether he was for
Smith or Blease.'
This open declaration by Major
Richards did not come as surprise
to those who are acquainted with the
poll ical situation The positive stand
taken by Major Richards, however, is
all the more interesting and signifl-
cant. when it is considered that he
and Senator Tillman have been here
;ofore closely allied in politics, and
that Major Richards, in previous
stare races, has been regarded as hav-
ing the support of the senior, senator,
and that as is we'll known, the senior !
senator has fought the governor 5it-
terly. What effec; this open an
nouncement of Major Richards will
have upon the relations between him
and Senator Tillman is not known.
The Governor in Charleston.

ternoon for Charleston to attend the

paign is now less ;han two weeks OF,
aad in the meantime the governor has

THE INHERITANCE
TAX IS GROWING
Exceeds That Of Only For
mer Year.

According to the reports f;om the
Office OF State Tax COMMISSIONS
Blue, the inheritance taxes received
by the state this year will exceed
those OF any year since the law was
enacted
Under the present system Of col
lecting this tax, but few estates es.
cape payment for any great length Of
time. The clerks of all the codutic
In the state are required by the law

poratiOns are to be required to make
report Of the transfer OF STOCKS, j.
beng illegal to transfer stock OF i
CORPORATION from the estate of de,
creased holder to any person until
the inheritance tax has been paid
This insures the collection OF the
tax from all nonresident holders of
stock in West Virginia corporations,
as no risks are taken in transferring
them until compliance with the law
has been made.
The states income from this tax
was very small during the first sevelI
teen years Of its operatiOn-from
1887 to 1904
Since 1904 the gain has been
ctr H.,
to $4,000 the following year, and
last year it has reached in round
numbers $4,000. The collections
this year to date are above 100000
and besides the numerous small col
lections expected in before June 80,
assurance was received this morning
Of an amount that will put the years
receipts above the $25O,OOO mark.

REGULAR TRAINS
TO PETERSBURG
Will be Run From Green Springs
Beginning on Wednesday,
July l.

AS stated several months ago, the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad had &C
quired Though the Moorefeld and
Virginia railroad, the Hampshire
Southern railroad, from Romney to
Petersburg, and commencing July l
it will operate through trains over
its south branch from Green Springs
to Petersburg.
Through the acquisition Of the
Hampshire Southern, extending SO
miles from Romney through the
eastern panhandle OF West Virginia,
the Baltimore and Ohio gains an en-
trance into section rich in natural
resources and prosperous in agr;cul-
ture.
The Hampshire Southern railroad
connects with the Green Spring ,ine
Of tse Baltimore and Ohio at Romney,
running south through Hampshire,
Hardy ard Grant counties, West v
ginia, to southern terminus at Pet
orsburg. The road was completed
il October. 1910. 1t is substantially
Dnilt throughout, being laid with So
pound rai from Romney to Moore
field, distance Of Is miles; while
from Moorefeld to Petersburg light
er rail is in use.
The section Of West Virginia
served by the Hampshire Southern
railroad is tributary to the south
branch Of the Potomac river, which
the line follows closely through a fer
tile valley that is largely devoted 70
farming. raising Of live stock and
fruit growing. Moorefield, in Hardy
county, has population Of 1000, and
Petersburg, has population Of 500.
Local conditions favorable to manu-
featuring have encouraged industrial
development both at Moorefield and
Petersburg. large tanneries having
located IN these communities, and a
third tannery is built farther back
IN the country. Still greater devel'
opment Of this section Of West Vir-
cinia is assured through the Balti-
more and Ohio's acquisition OF the
Hampshire Southern which will place
the territory in direca connection with
the eastern centers OF trade. -.

Of verdure on all sides.
The wheat crop was garnered with
out damage, and it was most album
dant one The hay crop is an aver
age one, and the second growth Of
alfalfa gives promise Of being heavy.
Corn, though late, is generally good
stand, and is in healthy condition.
The apple crop, upon which so
much hinges at this time, as it rep
resents, at lowest estimates half
million barrels, is as certain now Of
maturity as is possible at this time.
With plenty of rain, barring heavy
hail storms the crop must be abun-
dant, and hail storms are only local
