SUMMER ROADS.
H*rviwir Nicklos Tolls Why wo
Can't Have Kcltitr KoikIn.
President and Gentleman, County Good
Roads Association :
have no set speech to mnke on the
*tlon of uood roadH. It Is useless for me
iv, however, that I am with you wnd will.
lerall the assistance In my power as the
nty Supervisor of this County to iurther
rove the public highways ot Abbeville
nty. I reuret exceedingly that the
i-ssary means are not available to give to
people mio!) roads as the necessity of tbe
'eilng public demands. VVecan, however,
tt.e roads In the County In good condition
lummer travel only, but It Ik the winter
iths when the people are dissatisfied and
In complaints every day'as to tbe lmmhle
condition of the public roads, and I
ly admit these complaints are not made
bout cause.
nw Gentlemen, It Is during the winter
iths, as a rule the farmers especially If the
is-arein passable condition, preferto use
roads for marketing surplus products of
farm and returning with loads of fertlrs
apd other farm supplies, but quite frently
the roads are in such condition durlutr
ter anu early spring that, the farmers are
:ed to postpone this kind of worK until
in theSprlng until the roads become dry
hard. He Is therefore compelled by force
lrcumstances to do this hauling when pers
tbe ground Is In good condition for his
wh to run.
Is useless, however, for me to take up your
e with such statements as ibis when
ry man preBent understands this perhaps
er than I can tell It, but as the County
ervisor and member of County Board of
amlssloners, I desire to make a few re ks
on the financial condition of the CounIn
order to give you an idea as to the
>unt of funds available the current year
public roHd Improvement. It *eems that
expenditures of the County government
e exceeded the appropriations during the
i, o yearn uy uuuui joo,wu.uv. xu iovo
100.00 wbh borrowed from the Sinking
id CommlF-rilon. It was thought at that
e that S13.000.00 would p?y up all dejncles
which would leave ?12,000.00 in the
ids of the County; Treasurer, which wan
ught would about equal the levy for orary
County purposes that year, but when
past debts of the county were all paid it
i found that little more than ?6000.00 whs
, and when I assumed charge this balo
seems to have been entirely absorbed
deficiencies previous to my admlnlstrai.
During the past two years a further de
jncy was made amounting to something
r 813,000,00 making a total of ?38,000.00 for
past 8 years.
ow Gentlemen, the appropriation for the
*ent year is the name tnat It has been for
t several years, 2 1-2 mills for ordinary
nty purposes and 1-2 mill special lor
Jsand bridges. So you can readily see it
limply out of the question for the County
ird of Commissioners to relieve the peoof
the inconvenience of having bad roads
lng the winter and spring, as we have not
funds for the purpose of making pertient
improvements. We can give you
d summer roads and that is about all we
promise you. As I have said awhile ago,
County Commissioners have resolved to
the County this year ou the appropriai
If possible so to do, as I believe that it Is
mg even 11 It was not a flagrant violation
the laws of the State to spend so much
re money than is appropriated ; it is rung
the County in debt every year thus
sing the County to borrow money to pay
t Indebtedness, when the County levy for
bevflie County lor County purposes is
ong the lowest of any County in the Btate.
ill also state that the books in my office
1 show that, the current expenses of the
inty not lnoluding roads and bridges
ounted to last year about the entire
inty levy less about 81,000.00. These exldlt.ures
include salaries, Court expenses
ir House and other items which the law
scribes shall be paid, and over which the
inty Board ol Commissioners huve no
itrol.

The Xntlon'o Wealth.
Ninety-four billion dollars, in round
numbers, was the wealth of the nation
when the-census of 1900 was taken.
It is greater than that now by at least
$6,000,000,000 if the rate of increase in"
the years preceeding tbe census has <*]
been maintained during the past two
years and it is not'to be doubted that
such is the case, rne unueu states
has more than doubled its wealth in 20
years and there seems to be no reason
why the progress made during that
period, which it is needless to say has -h
never been equalled by any other
country, should not go on for the next
20 years. The resources of the country . via
are practically boundless, its produciug
capacity can be developed to an
almost unlimited extent, it'can suatain
a population five or six times as
large as it now has. In view of what
has been accomplished in material advancement
during the las), two decades,
it does not appear extravagant to.
estimate the wealth of th6 United TgH
States a quarter of a century hence at
$200,000,000,000, with a vi.st Increase
in industries and commerce.
This country is now the world's 'iVjH
leading banking power. Taking Euro
pean esti mates ot the oaiiKing power 01
various countries the comptroller of
the currency has made a comparison
of the total with the prestnt banking
power of the United States, showing
that in this particular this country is
twice as powerful as Great Britain,
nearly twice as powerful aa all continental
Europe and almost equal to the
whole mass of foreign countries
enumerated. Nowhere else does the
concentration of floating capital approacli
such a degree of development
as in the United States. This demonstrates
conclusively that this country ,
is now the money power of the world
and it is steadily growing stronger in
this position. It is interesting to not6 ?
also that iu comparison with the public
debts of other great nations that
of ours is small iu amount.
