NO TAXES HERE. ,

Ritchie county, W. Va., will be with

for the first time In the old town's
history. The announcement has just

electric lighting plant, and the profit
from Its operation combined with the
interest on the town's money In
banks will afford ample revenue for
all estimated municipal expense, so
that no corporate tax will be laid. No
other town in West Virginia ever en
