couraging INCREASED production of
crops and livestock, $1IS,500 of

ness. This was regarded rs war
measure, and as the arm's.ice had
been gned congress failed to make
an appropriation for continuing the
work.
The meeting adopted a resolution
calling upon congress, when it con-
venes in special session, to make an
appropriation for the next fiscal year,
and endorsing the efforts of Professor
Taylor to build up the poultry indus

RAILWAY FOR $4,000

The county's suit against the Santa
Fe railway for collection of $110,069,-
s. alleged back taxes resulted in the
plaintiff getting judgment for only
$5,11349. Judge NJ. f. Hickey of the
district court, who tried the case, held
that the county assessor has no au-
thority to raise the assessment of rail
way property already valued by the
state tax commission.
Assessor Stephen L. Roehl, holding
that the Santa Zee was not paying tax
es on all its property and on other
portions was paying taxes on an as
sessment of Less than it's actual value,
raised the companN's valuation for
1917 $1,673,570 and approximately
that sum for the preceding year.
1t was said that the railway did not
dispute the payment of the sum for
which judgment was granted, but 1t
did question the assessors authority
for making the increase in it's assess
ment.

DEBT TO VIRGINIA

CHARLESTON, w. Va. Feb. 13.-
Recommending the payment OF the
Virginia debt and suggesting a basis
upon which this may be done, the re-
port of the Virginia debt commission
of West Virginia has been submitted
to the legislature through Gov. John
J. COrnwell.
1t was pointed out in the report
that the concession offered by Ran
doIph Harrison, who appeared before
the legislature a few days ago, to the
end that the debt could be paid in
bonds which would run for a number
Of years, was probably the best that
could be obtained. Briefly stated.
the report says that the proposition
is this:
"First-That you satisfy the judg-
mcut with bonds delivered to the State
Of Virginia at par. less the payment OF
Sl.OG2, ,S6716 in cash and one-half the
costs Of the suit as declared by the
court.
"Second-That the said bonds cover
period OF twenty years and bear
81. per cent interest.
"Thir ird-That this state retain in
her treasury, or in escrow bonds TO
the amount Of the undeposited certiii-
cafes, to be turned over only when
or il such outstanding and undeposit-
cd certificates are presented
The report was signed by John ].
