4 LETTER.

MIR. Editor 81 noticed an article IL
the county papers by Senator Byrd o,
doing way with unnecessary offices
thereby saving the tax payer a cor
siderable sum Of money. l desire Il
put my self on record as favoring tht
proposition as outlined by Mr.. Byr.
and if he cs0not get this, get the ne
F. best thing he can. The time is hex
| for action, all talk and no action will
not accomplish anything. The ta7
payer as a rule will not come out in the
press on those matters, but I feel safe
in saying that vast majority of the tax
payers of this community, both Demo
Gratis and Republicans will favor any
measure along the line as indicated by
| Mr.. Byrd
Not only Commissioners and land
assessors, but feel certain that if our
Representatives will look into the mat
ter they will find many offices that
could be cut out and if not practical
to do away with the office cut the
salaries so that they would be in line
with other conditions as they exist at
this time. Personally am opposed to
the fvt 5. stem, but if not possible to
| do away with the fee system pass a
| la making the salaries not TO exceed
certain maximum, said maximum to
be about one half or not over two
thirds the amount as at present, this
arrangement to apply to State and
county offices and no matte what the
fees may amount to the officer cannot
exceed the maximum as fixed by law,
have been asked about the Review
board: II the same conditions exist now
as when | was member of that board
1 would say retain it, and as briefI
explanation | remember one year wei
gathered up over three hundredI
thousand dollars that had been omitted
for income tax.
However, the law as at present gives|
90 days time in which the Board may
do its work and my idea of this is that
it should not exceed 30 days. | think
am safe in saying that in Shenandoah
County 80 days h never been put in
and the same may hold good in manyl
other counties, but on 60 day basis
the temptation is there to put in time
and draw the pay.
l am getting too lengthy, andl
wish to say that | do not envy al
single officer in the State the amour |
Of money he gets but taking thatl
practical common sense view of the
matter many Of the jobs cost too much |
money and should be cut down.
That road question | almost forgot. |
LIE, very tax aver lend their aid in
trying to do away with the PRESENT.
State road system That the people
want is not SO much red tape and highI
priced officials, but more improved
roads with red tape cut out The tax
payer does not object so seriously to
the tax he pays, but he wants more re-
suits for what he does pay.

MEX. PETE rs BUILDING
TWO NEW GAS PLANTS


Tina Mexican Petroleum Company has
begun work on tho construction OF two
new plants In Mexico for the extraction
OF gasoline from natural gas. This
marks departure from the policy Of
Mexican Petroleum and other oil COM
panies generally in Mexico in that use
will be made of a product which here
tofore has been almost entirely wasted
owing to the lack of demand in Mexico
for gas for the ordinary heating and
Illuminating purposes.
The plants will be built one In the
Cerro Azul field and the other in Chapo-
pote, at cost aggregatihg 100000.
One hundred miles of three inch pipe
line have been ordered for transporta-
ton OF the gas line from the plants to
Tampico. Work is also proceeding on
the company's new $2,0O0000 refinery
al Tampico. where crude gasoline. pow
being produced at the topping plant at
that point. viii be refined into COM
mercial gasoline.
1t is expected that the company's
statement for the first seven months OF
the current year, to be issued shortly,
will show approximately SIS share
earned on the s45.oo0,O00 outstanding
common stock.

FOREIGN NEEDS SPUR
WHEAT PURCHASING
Chicago Market Shows Upward
Trend Corn Price Moves
Unimportant.

>ssfIcAGo, Sept. S.--Wheat tended up
day. chiefly as 3 result of higher quota
tions at Liverpool and because Of gossip
that France would require heavy i'm
ports OF wheat before harvest. The
close was unsettled at the same as yes
terday's finish TO Il cents higher. with
s1.071. to sl.075s. Corn closed un-
changed to q cents lower, oats I'M
changed to Is cents UP, and provisions
unchanged to 15 cents down.
Large orders to purchase Canadian
wheat for shipment to Europe were said
TO be in the market. and 1t was esti-
mated that exporters took 10000
bushels or rome. French needs were fig
ured as totaling as much as 100000
tons. Owing to the wet weather In the
Northwest hedging pressure was less
in evidence. Throughout the day sea-
board houses were good buyers of De-
cember whenever obtainable below $1.03.
Some notice was taken. too, of advices
that fall blowing everywhere was being
delayed.
Anticipations that the Government
crop report would prove bearish as to
wheat led to a reaction in the wheat
market during the last hour, wiping out
much of the earlier gains. Northwestern
interests were conspicuous in the selling.
There was a broad trade In corn. but
price changes were Of little Importance.
Commission houses bought on a large
scale. whereas holders who wish to
secure profits took to the selling side.
and, aided by showers In Iowa and
Nebraska, held values down. The Gov
eminent crop report regarding corn
proved to be about as generally ex-
pected,
Demand for oats was quite active on
the part of shorts.
Provisions lacked support despite
higher quotations on hogs.

British SILK Trades Need.

The apathetic attitude with which the
British Government views the subject
of protection for its silk industry was
deprecated yesterday by Frank Far
rell. president of the Silk Association
OF Great Britain and Ireland, Inc. Mr..
Farrell sails to-day for England after
a survey OF the silk industry in America.
I'VE claim that IL the Government
would give us even a duty OF only 10
per cent. we could double our trade in
three years" he said in statemeDt
to the SAX Association OF America.
1.-The result OF free trade in England
has been that the employees in the
silk industry have come down from
10000 in 1850 to 3o,0o0 to-day. whereas
the consumption of silk goods per capita
in the meantime has considerably more
than doubled. The English manufac.
turer to-day Is producing 20 per cent.
of our consumption of silk 50 per cent.
is imported and the English silk indus
try has been reduced largely 10 an in
dustry of specialties."

turers and piece goods men. as we'll as

situated for business. although no boom
is anywhere apparent 4 speedy pas
sage of tho tariff Is greatly desired by
the trade to help stabilize conditions.
Tho foreign markets are very firm, with
a tendency upward. London having adj
vanced slightly since tho opening on
