STATE FINANCES.

HE. ANNOUNCEMENT that the state Beard of
Public Works found it possible to reduce the state
tax levy by two cents on the hundred dollars and
entirely the special war levy Of two cents will be Crafty
ing to every public spirited West Vrgnian In times past
the state levy has been manipulated for political purposes.
but with what IS virtually bipartisan government in
Charleston the danger Of such thing removed and the
tax levy may be accepted confidently an indication not
only Of satisfactory condition Of the finances Of the
monweah but Of prosperous business throughout the state
However the fact that the state is in comfortable cir
cumstances should not lu any one into false Of
security The financial affairs Of the state will never be
an entirely satisfactory footing until we have budget
troll Of appropriations and expenditures. And cannot
have that unless the proposed amendment the state
stuton which is to be voted for this fall is adopted and
the matter then put through the legislature at the next
session.
1t is pity. therefore. that state wide movement in
favor Of the adoption Of the amendment was not set
foot early enough to put the candidates for the Legislature
on record previous to the primary election Now that we
have the state wide primary system there not the slight
est reason why we should vote the dark any matter
like budget control when We vote for members Of the
House of Delegates and state senators. All that it
necessary to do is to start lining up the candidates
enough and any good measure sure to win matter
which political party controls the Legislature.
Of course. nothing can be done about the budget If
the amendment not sanctioned by the voters at the polls
but that. too would have been helped by pre-pnmary
campaign

the height OF absurdity.
Baseball would stand a better chance
now that It is in need OF friends II the
