Modern Circus Equipment.

BY the installation Of modern labor
saving devices and the use OF new and
up-to-date equipment the Walter L.
Main Circus this season will break
all records, it is expected, in time re-
CURED to erect and raze its tents. The
old-timer who finds pleasure in watch
ing the gangs of men drive the lone
stakes will rub his eyes in astonish,
ment at the sight of gasoline en-
eine, fitted with a miniature pile dri-
yer, sending the stakes earthward at
the speed of one a minute. This same
machine pulls them at night, saving an
hour or more of valuable time.
Gone are the old fashioned gasoline
torches. In their place the Main Cir
Gus has introduced its own electric
lighting plant that furnishes light not
only for the big top" but all of the
side shows and the show grounds as
well, yet so compact is il that the entire
outfit is loaded on one wagon. The
wagon and equipment will be on exhibit
ton each day near the main entrance
To feed the 400 employees il was
found necessary to install this season
an entirely new system Of cooking, and
the old army range has been succeed
ed by steam cookers and tables. With
them it is simple matter to prepare
three meals day and have them
ready on the dot.
BY a newly patented arrangement all
OF the big poles of the two larger
tents are raised at one time and big
spools unroll the canvas with a saw
ing of much time and labor.
Horses will always be a necessity
around a circus, but their work has
been lightened by the use Of big motou
trucks that haul at one time six on
more of the big dens and cages to and
from the circus grounds. They come
in especially useful when the circus
arrives late.
In fact, every device that will save
time has been installed by the Main
Circus, and it is well worth a visit to
the show grounds on the morning of
the exhibition to see the way a modern
circus erects its white city and feeds
its hundreds OF employees. Main,
Big String Circus is to exhibit at Mar
tinsburg, Wednesday, April 10Th.

Use Gases to Kill Pests.

How gophers, jack rabbits, boil wee
wills, crows, blackbirds, rust on wheat,
rats and other pests have been de-
clared common enemies to be EXTERN
mated was told to the Senate Ap-
preparations Committee by Brig. Gen.
Fries, chief OF the Chemical Warfare
Service. The lessons learned in the
last war. he declared, were being dr.
rectly applied to the aid Of mankind
through the strictly peace operations Of
other departments of the government.
Gases for the determination of the
boil weevil have been developed which
are effective, Gneral Fries stated, but
must be used in the fall, when the cot
ton crop is picked, because in killing
the pests gases also destroy the cot
ton plant
Gases also have been used in the
West for killing jack rabbits and goph-
ers. Mustard gas, he explained, was
sprinkled over the paths Of the jack
rabbits, irritating their feet and caus-
ing them to rub them across the face.
The poison then quickly becomes ef-
fective.

I'VE ARE LIVING IN SPIRIT
OF WILSON," G0MPERS SAYS
Labor Leader Expresses Hope That "His
Principles May Become Daily Rules
For Conduct OF Our Lives"

eve are living today in the spirit OF
Woodrow Wilson and our efforts In
the future will be directed toward
mobilization Of the public sentiment
of this Republic to his Work in order
that his principles may become daily
rules for the conduct Of our lives"
That is the message sent broadcast
by Samuel GOmpers. president Of the
American Federation OF Labor in
giving his endorsement to the plan to
honor the former president through
the Woodrow Wilson Foundation, ut q
recent conference between labor lead
ers and representatives of the Founda-
tion Fund.
THE American people, and particu
larly the working people owe it to the
country to see to it that this honor to
Woodrow Wilson shall be successful.
If there has ever been a man in re-
sponsible office in this country who
understood labor's rights, 1t was
Woodrow Wilson"
AS instances of the fundamental
principles Of the idealism OF Mr..
Wilson's efforts toward lettering the
condition of the laboring men, Mr..
GOmpers named the Seamen's and
Clayton Antitrust Laws.
1.-The former" he said, "has raised
the sailor from the galley slave to the
modern seaman of the United States.
But probably the splendid idealism
Of Mr.. Wilson Is nowhere In labor
legislation better illustrated than in
the Clayton Antitrust Law. That
bill declared that the labor of a human
being is not commodity or article OF
commerce Every act of Wilson dur
ing his presidency was prompted b.
the highest motives in the interest not
only of labor, but of all the people.
Whether we have a small treaty OF
four or five, or an agreement among
all the nations of the earth, the initial
step has been taken. Mr.. Wilson has
pointed out the way in international
understanding, and we are following
the path he silently emblazOns."

INCREASE IN
TAXES SHOWN
Seven Times a. Great Today a.
m 1912, Yet State Tax De-
partment Insists Upon
Boosting Assessment
MUST MEET A DEFICIT DUE TO
EXTRAVAGANCE

An example of the startling increase
In taxes in West Virginia in the last
ten years, especially on farm lands
and other real estate, is reflected in
an authentic table prepared by L. A.
Christy, former Democratic member
or tn kanawha county court, who re.
signed year ago because he said he
could not sit mutely by and observe
the careless manner in which the ma.
Jority Republican members were run.
ming the country's affairs"
In his study Of the increase in the
assessed valuation OF real estate i'm
kanawha, the home of the state
capitol, Judge Christy covers a period
OF ten years, from 1912 to 1921.
Rate Increases Seven Times
He disclosed that the average rate
of taxation in these ten years has in.
creased from "A cents on the 500
valuation to S2Oi12. Meanwhile, the
value of land, lots and improvements,
he shows, has increased from $4,000
OOO, TO $64,O00,OO0, an increase of S2T,.
5OO,OO0 in realty value alone.
That means that the owners of real
estate N kanawha county paid in 1912
approximately 100000 in taxes. In
1921. they paid approximately $l,4OO,.
wv. In other words, it means, the
Charleston Gazette points out edito.
rally, that the land owners of Ka.
nawha county paid to the sheriff in
1921 about seven times as much as
they did in 1912. This does not in.
clude city taxes in Charleston, and,
OF course. does not include personal
property taxation.
Going Still Higher
The same conditions prevail I'm all
the counties of the state. In face OF
these figures and the fact that farm
values ar. shown by a survey of the
United States department of agricul.
ture to have greatly decreased in
West Virginia during the past few
years, the Republican tax depart.
ment OF this state, Of which Walter s.
Hallanan is the head, insists upon res.
directing the old Dawson tax law,
which ,ay dormant for years on the
statute books, and using it to boost
taxes at Il time when the people can
least afford It. This is being done
Democratic leaders say, for the OBJ
vious purpose Of meeting a deficit in
operating expenses due to the lavish
administration Of affairs by the pres.
ent Republican administration. In
order to make this reassessment OF
property, Commissioner Hallanan was
voted $4,000 additional expense
money by the last Republican leg
islature. This same Republican leg
islature allowed a total increase in
appropriations of nearly $7,OO0,OOO, q
large part OF which went for increased
salaries and personal expense &C
counts Of Republican office holders
and "hangers-on" around the state
house at Charleston.
