Belated Reply From Sen Tavenner Prefaced by Local Papers
The Shenandoah Herald announces a June 14 issue will include a lengthy article where Sen. Tavenner reportedly misstates the author’s position on the Commissioner of the Revenue bill. The author reaffirms and reprints the piece to counter the belated reply published May 24, 1907, noting its timing before the primary.
Commissioners of Revenue Should Be Elected by the People
A Strasburg News letter argues the state should elect Commissioners of the Revenue rather than have them appointed by judges. It cites un elected judges, political manipulation, and the impact on tax assessors, urging voters to reject the current arrangement and elect officers who answer to the people. FRANK S. TAVENNER frames the argument against judicial appointment and notes the law’s close vote, warning of sustained political influence.
