mental concerns, believe that no
more taxes should be levied than will
meet the actual necessities of govern
ment, economically administered. Tax
alton has come to be a serious burden
to the people. A larger percentage of
the income from property is being paid
for maintaining government than is
generally supposed.
There is to be considered the pros
pect that federal taxation will be vast
ly increased under the plans for ma
tional defense to be considered by the
present Congress, as well as provisions
for an inexcusable Democratic extrav-
agance. There is the additional pros
pect that provision will have TO be
made to dispose of the finding against
the State of West Virginia by the SUI
preme Court of the United States I'm
the Virginia Debt Case. Municipal.
county and district taxation is stead
lily increasing, while the discourag ing
counter-fact appears that the means
to pay has not increased correspond
ingly with the demands that are being
made upon the people for more tax
money.
There should be the highest possible
state OF efficiency in the management
Of our institutions and the best posi-.
bic service and comfort should be rem
dered to those depending upon them.
The Republican party is committed to
an economical administration Of the
state affairs, and Il is my firm lnten-
ton, II elected Governor, TO exercise
full diligence and care I'm seeking for
the discovery Of whatever elements of
waste, extravaganza or over-employ-
ment that now exists. TO the end that
strict economy may be practiced in all

be accomplished by a careful pruning

Good Citizen at Rest

Another splendid citizen and
good man was called to his reward
when Elliott Stevens, of Pine
Creek, died after short illness
with pneumonia. He had been
sick only a few days and it was
not thought that his condition
was so dangerous, and his many
friends were deeply shocked and
panied to hear the sad news of
his death.
Mr.. Stevens was a quiet, law
abiding citizen and was highly
respected and greatly esteemed
by all who knew him. He was
about forty years of age and is
survived by his widow and three
small sons.
