Greatest Amount of Money On Hand In Country's distory VERY GOOD TREASURY SKOWING All Large Denominations Becoming Gold Certificates and the Smillest Silver Certificates. Washington, Special.-Elias H. Rob erts, Treasurer of the United States, in opening his annual report, says that the magnitude of the available cash balance and the unprecodented hold ings of gross gold are the striking fea tures of the condition of the Treasury at the close of the fiscal year 1902. The available cash balance in the Trea9 ury July 1, 1902, was the largest ret balance in our history. It amounted to 362,187,361. The gold reserve is counted In as it is available for the redermption of legal tender notes. Nearly one-half of the available cash balance was in gold coin and certificates, $303;801,290 over and above the gold reserve of $150,0000,000 and by Octobec it became $136,124,771. As a measure af the finan cial strength of the government the re port says the fact deserves mention. By October 1, 1902, the available cash bal ance, exclusive of the reserve, was $221,2G3,394; and owing .to the large measures for the relief of the money market was reduced by November 1, to $220,621,870. Of this sum $145,885,012 was in national banks. To the total stock of money in the country an addi tion of $130,138,841 was made during the fiscal year. Of this $657,699,517 was in gold coin and bullion. National bank notes received an increment of $2,851, 589. The gold coin and bullion October 1 exceeded all other Idnds of money, ex cluding national notes, by $200, 368,433. In five ye ',e ratio of gold in the country has run up from 36.52 to 16.45 to t0e 100. The growth in the vol ume of money in circulation during the year was $74,048,049 carrying the per I capita from 27.9& to 28.43. The element I of gold coin and gold certificates was I the largest part and the increase reach ed $61,966,174, and advanced from 40.30 per cent. of the total to 41.31 per cent. I in silver of all denominations, includ I ing certificates, there was an increase of $25,226.146, of which $6,4S6.014 was in subsidiary coin. The reduction in Treasury notes of $17,677,800 is due to their withdrawal. The advance in circulation in the volume of gold including certificates within 12 years by the large sum of $433,703,516, is the measure of the great strength of our circulation. The addition during the past fiscal year was $61,96(6,174. The increase in the future can hardly be less than $50,000,000 to $60,000,000 a year. The mines, the re port says, are thus confirming the gold standard steadily and invincibly and it adds: "Fot tag.-imwediate jresent, and doiubtl ess for a :.w ,yeqs at least, the infiow of gold will be in su'ch large measures as to lift the volume of cur rency to the highest level of all needs of business. Our currency keeps more than equal pace with the population IOn June 27 ,the gold certificates out standing for the first time exceeded in volume the United States notes and were $347,179,089. By November 1, they were $567,078,569. "The gold in the Treasury keeps in active circulation as currency the cer tificates issued against it and more over $346,638,016 in United States notes and $30,000,000 in Treasury notes, or over $140,000,000 more than Its own value. The question may well be con sidered whether the United States notes may not properly be turned by Congress into gold certificates. They have much that quality already, and the change could be gradually made as the supply of the yellow metal 'takes an greater proportions. The demands of the people for notes of small denoni inations have surprised the closest stN dents of the currency. In 1890, there were 37,065.880 pieces of government paper issued of the average value of $6.61. In 1902. the issue was 116,697, 874, and the average value was $4. The facilities for production have been otten increased and now seem to be suf ficient for present requirements. "The act of March 14, 1900, makes it the duty of the Secretary of the Treasury to maintain the party ot value on all forms of money issued or coined by the United States with the gold standard and figed by that law. This parity is now easily maintained a nd all kinds of government money are exchangeable with each. The flow tof gold permitting the free issue of gold certificates of 829 and upwards is the key to this maintenance of parity and interchangeability of all kinds off government money. On the other handi, small denominations, including silver -coin are constantly in demand for the r myriad transactions of retail trade andi Sthe current uses of rural communitiese as well as for pay ro!is in furnaces and factories and harvest fields." The Treasury ,in recent years. continues the s report, has had much more clamor for t silver and small notes than for gold. it Is now abundantly alihe to moet ali calls for every kind of money for its own obligations for redemption and for S legitimate transfers. As a result off the movements which have been noted our e paper currency is gaining in simplicity. SGradually all large denomination; are a becoming gold certificates, and the 2 smaller silver certificates, while in a time all $10 will 'ce United States notes. Separate Street Cars. 1New Orleans.

Spartanburg Correspondence Columbi: State, 7th. Spartanburg may not be modest 1i her claim's of being a healthy clime but facts stand for themseilves. Thi writer this aftcrnoon enjoyed a loni talk with a resident of this county whc was born in October, 1803-he is 9i years of age. His name is Casswel Edwvard Smith, and his home is nei the burnt factory on Tyger river in th( lower section of this county. He is at ideal representative of the muscle anr brawn which have made the vasi tracts of woodland bow to the axe and the impenetrable swamps, lagoons and wild verdant meadows yield to the plough share and pruning hook and the general cultivation of the soil. Mr. Smith came to this city aboul four weeks ago. For sixteen years past he has been totally blind. DoctorE told him it was due to old age, but a relative of his, Dr. W. A. Smith, ex amined him and found that it was a case of cataract of the eyes. He was brought to Spartanburg, and a littlE over a month ago Dr. George W. H ein itsh performed a successful operation for the cataract, and the old gentlemar can now see. Considering his age, and the accompanying infirmities of ad vanced life, it is wonderful how suc cessful the operation is; and it is , real joy to hear the old man commeni on the fact of his seeing, after ha;ina been totally blind for 16 years. Mr. Sm-th remembers when there wer( only four buildings in this city-one oi these was the old Lee house, a fram( structure erected near the preseni store of J. A. Lee & Son, which has long since passed the dilapidated stage The first railroad train and locomotivE he put his eyes on was in Columbia ir 1869. The first circus he attended war in 1838 in Spartanburg. He recall! many points and incidents of the mus ter days. He has lived as a farmei and worked hard and lived honestly all of his life. He has lived with his pres ent wife (his first wife dying a few months after their marriage) for "(( years, and the four weeks he has beer up here is the longest time they have ever been separated. He is a great lov er of tobacco, when it comes to chew ing. He was for years an inveterat smoker, and never gave up this habil until he became blind-his only reasor or argument to offer against smokins is blindness. He is and has been fox 40 years a member of Putman Baptis church. His rule in life is, -as he ex presses it-"do to your neighbor a! you would be done by." He states tha1 with his eyesight restored as now, h( will be plowing on the farm again lon before spring. He stands six feet it height and weighs 150 pounds. HE looks remarkably strong for a man o: his advanced years.

It is the purpose of the ciation to secure sufficient co-oper n to have the road built as soon as sible, and it is stated that the Gov ent, recognizing the military im tance of such a highway, will lend support.
