CORNWELL'S TAX
TALK ALL WRONG
Facts and Figures Pulled on
Him Show He Failed to
Tell Whole Story.

! FAYETTEVILLE. October r.
\ Cornwell. itSls noticed in this county,
has written in his Hampshire Review.
that he did not ignore state issues
in his tour Of Fayette county, hut
among other things gave Fayette citI-
zens figures showing they paid in d.
rect state taxes only S3,327.55 in
1912. while in 1915 they paid S52.-
! 1880, an Increase OF S49,387.25 in
three years. the cost OF HatneldIsm
for single season."
Here in Fayette county the people
are glad to note this explanation of
Cornwell, who might have gone a
little farther In this same argument
and used some new figures Mt hand
right now for the year 1916, a habit
Cornwell is not addicted to. not only
in Fayette county. but in any other
county OF the state.
Had Cornwell told the whole truth
he would have shown that in Fayette
county, II the Republican admins
tration had reverted to the rate OF
the last Democratic administration in
1895. the average citizen OF Fayett
would be paying thirty-hve cents on
the 800 assessed valuation instead
OF nine as at present, or fourteen as
in 1915, or an average OF 81 for
every man, woman and child in Fay
cite county.
More than this, the Republican ad-
minlstration in 1916 turns back to
Fayette county the very handsome
sum of $140.13O.90, nearly three
times the amount OF the sum Corn
well complains about as direct taxes
for this county in 1915 Where does
this money come from? Cornwell
knows as every Democrat in the state
knows, that it comes from the more
just distribution of taxation which
the Republicans adopted as the sys-
stem which Cornwell tried to defeat
in 1904. and which defeated him
then as his harangues against IT are
defeating him now. Under the last
Democratic administration in this
state the public service corporations,
such as telegraph and telephone COM
panies. railroads, pipe lines, etc, paid
into the state treasury OF West vir-
ginia the insignificant sum of $52.-
95S.OS. whereas in 1916 they paid
to the state, Fayette county included,
TNHhH t's-b bAA AlAt luullttll cent levy
alone. while in 1916 the Republican
administration also collected $780,
259.53, in the secretary of states Of
flee which was paid over to the state
treasury. S12.32O for the examination
OF banks, likewise paid over. license
tax on charters. sS27,455.72. or near
~ eight times what the last Demo-
cratic administration collected, spe-
cial taxes of s234,91S.0S as com
pared to nothing collected under
Democratic administration, and so on
and though Democrats formerly
collected many OF these fees the sec
rotary OF state OF those days. of which
William f. Chiffon was one. and the
state auditor, instead of paying the
fees to the state. put them into their
pockets!
These are the facts which Cornwell
cannot deny truthfully. The addi-
tional taxes collected for Fayette
county have built schools. provided

Submarine Sensation.-New York
Is all agog today over the exploits
of certain German submarines which
have sunk four British, one Nor

Nantucket In each instance warn

crews were permitted to take to the
boats before their ships were sunk
and, 80 far as known, all were sub

the export trade. and as the present
prosperity is entirely dependent on
such trade, practically everyone may
be said to be so connected. That a
continuance of this sort OF Interior

American ports will come very near
to causing panic is freely predicted
in financial circles. The president,
who is at his summer home at Long

scene Of the the submersible cam

ried over the situation.
