ton throughout the state, for efficien-
cy and economy IN administering the
affairs of state, county and district
and that it is opposed to any arbitrary
increase in farm assessments, that it
believes before any general increase
in valuation is made, statute should
be passed reducing and limiting the
rate of levy and the amount Of bond
issues, that the values fixed In the
year 1921 are as high as they should
be, and that these values should no.
be changed, except in the eQualiza-
ton thereof
1.-THE law the state tax commissioner
Is now trying to enforce is the Daw-
son tax law of 1904" says Chairman
Dunlap, when we were given the
same promise by it's patrons as we
now hear, that by re-valuation OF
property our taxes would be reduced.
The state tax RATE was reduced until
In 1912 it was one cent (1c) but since
that time it has had continuous up
ward trend until now it has reached
the maximum levy allowed by the
law and although businesses have
been heavily taxed until the burden
has greatly restricted the activities
Of our industries and the progress OF
our state is impeded, the funds are
not sufficient to meet the wild extrav-
agance of the Republican administra-
ton and increased valuation Is an alb
solute essential to enable the collec-
ton of sufficient revenues to defray
the increased appropriations given by
the last legislature.
'sThis explains the great activity to
increase valuations and this false
promise Of reduction in amount Of tax
is only a political anaesthetic to quiet
the people until they are bled to ex-
haustion. The people have been fool
ed once by this same propaganda.
They will not be fooled again

Attorney Cleveland M. Selbert,
ex-Mayor of Martinsburg and one OF
the most prominently known men,
bers of the bar in West Virginia,
formally entered the congressional
night in West Virginia's Second Dis
trict, when he filed announcement OF
his candidacy for the Democratic
nomination, subject to the action OF
the voters of bis party at the August
primary, with Secretary of State
houston Golf Young at Charleston.
Mr.. Seibert's announcement came
after admirers of him IN his home
county and in other counties urged
that he cast his derby into the pol
itical arena In an effort to win the
Second District back to the followers
OF Thomas Jefferson. For several
days the former city executive has
been considering entering the race
and yesterday, after being called on
the long distance telephone from
keyser by the Democratic Congress
slonal Committee, which urged that
he make the race, definitely made up
his mind to let his name go before
the voters.
A precedent for the Second Dis
trict Is establishment as a result OF
the former mayor aspiring to the
lower house in that both he and
Congressman George M. Bowers
VINO is practically certain of the
Republican nomination, are from the
same city, and are even neighbors,
Mr.. Seibert's home being almost di-
rectly opposite that of Mr.. Bowers
at the extreme end of South Queen
street in Martinsburg.
Mr.. Seibert is a native and life
long resident of Berkeley county
He is a graduate of West Virginia
University, class of 1905. When q
very young man he aspired to sii
in the Legislature and was elected
thrice to that august body-in 1909
1911 and 1913. He is the junior
member of the firm of Martin anc
Seibert, well known law firm OF
Martinsburg, and is one of the
youngest congressman candidates the
district has ever had, being in hi.
late thirties.
His recent career as mayor OF
Martinsburg established for him 9
reputation as undeniably one of the
very best executives that city has
ever had.
