POCKET PHONES.
A pocket telephone for police pur
poses |r probably the most novel
adaptation of Invention In this par
ticular field. It Is to be seen in dally
practical working |n Vienna and
perhaps In Vienna alone of the great
cities of the world In the Austrian
capital, however, the system is uni
versal. and every police officer on
duty is provided with the necessary
appliances. In every street of Im
portance In the city special call box
have been placed, and every of
ficer on duty having occasion to com
municate with the station has only
to pull out his pocket apparatus, ad
Ju»t It t0 the wire In the box, and
communication at once is established.

THE GREATEST
BLOW YET

lon boldly demands thut the Dawson
tax laws so amended as to take
from the local courta the right to
hear a determined appeals of prop
erty owners regarding the erroneous
assessments by the Dawaoo-DlQon
tax machine, and Instead of these
local courts create by tho Dawson
regime, a court of its own to pass
upon these matters, he is striking
a blow at the people of this state
never before attempted In any re
publican form of government, save
In Rome during the days that des- *
troyed the Roman empire, and the
scheme Is too serious, too damnables 1
i und too far reaching to receive the
J sanction of one single, liberty loving 1
I citizen of all West Virginia, and
it would seem that the mere read
log of :t. In the news columns of
to-day’s Gazette, would 'be nil that

The adjutant general’s office has
become a bone of contention In the
state and many newspapers are dis
cussing the grart of the job. But
there in no reason why any one

than graft could exist under such
governors as White and Dawson.
Their greatest executive efforts were
put forth to plunder the state treas
ury to feed favorites. The deficit will
