TO HONOR ACCOUN
BECAUSE THEY
Comptroller General A. W. Jones i
today gave to the press copies of
correspondence between himself and 1
Governor Blease and Mr. C. W. j
Creighton of Greenwood, special of-;
ticcr appointed by the governor for
the enforcement of laws, in which is j
described an interesting situation that
hns arisen over the refusal to settle ;
a bill of expenses of Special Officer 1
Creighton. Mr. Creighton sent in a
month's expense account to the compr
troller general. The comptroller gen- j
eral refused payment on the ground
that it was not itemized. The account I
read: "For special services rendered j
for one month, ending April 22,1912."
Governor Blease wrote to the comp- |
troller general, asking that the ac- I
count be honored, stating that he did j
not care to have any trouble in the j
courts with the comptroller general, j
and e-ivinp- his reasons for askine that i
the account be paid. The comp-:
troller general replied to the gover- j
nor. giving his reasons for not honor- j
ing the account and asking that the j
account be itemized. The matter may '
go to the courts.
The Correspondenee
The letter of the comptroller gen- j
eral to Mr. Creighton, the first of the
correspondence after the receipt by
the comptroller general of the ex
pense account is as follows:
Columbia, S. C., May 3, 1912.
Mr. C. W. Creighton, Greenwood, S. C.
Dear Sir: I have before me your
special account for the enforcement
of law for special services rendered.
I beg to say before we can pay this
account it must be itemized, giving
the number of days and dates on
which services were rendered. Ser
vices rendered on the special fund by
the month is not permissible.
Kindly send statement and we will
attach to your account and issue you
a check for same.
Yours very truly,
A. W. Jones,
Comptroller General
Mr. Creighton's reply to this> was
as follows:
Greenwood, S. C. May 6.1912
Hon. A. W. Jones, Columbia. S. C.
Dear Sir: Your letter of the 3rd
instant is at hand, I am leaving home
on duty today and will not return un
til the last of the week, about Satur
day and then I will take up tho \ub
ject matter of your letter with you.
Yo \irs truly.

Governor's Letter
Governor Blease's letter to the
comptroller general is as follows:*
Mr. A. W. Jones, Comptroller General,
Columbia, S. C.
Dear Sir: I have a letter from
yourself to Mr. C. W. Creighton of
Greenwood, S. C., in which you state:
"Services rendered on the special
fund by the month is not permissible."
I notice in looking over the ac
counts or ex-uovernor neywara ana
Ansel that claims for detectives, both
white and black, inside the State, and
outside, have been paid without a
word from your office and In much
larger sums than the amount to be*
paid Mr. Creighton. I can not under
stand why you are endeavoring to
hamper me in the enforcement of the
laws, for section 793, Vol. I, code of
laws, 1912, provides:
"Sec. 793. The amounts specified
for the various officers of the State
and for various public purposes,other
than for salaries and clerical services.
shall be duly accounted for; a de
tailed statement thereof shall be made
to the general assembly at its next
ensuing session. No person author
ized to make contracts or draw said
appropriations shall exceed the spe
cific appropriations nor shall any
fund be expended for any other pur
pose than that for which it may be
appropriated. All accounts shall be
itemized and verified."
I would be glad therefore, if you
would pay this claim without further
trouble, as you have been doing in
the past.
The*e appropriations are set aside
for the governor and the claims ap
proved by him. I think this should
be satisfactory and should be paid by
you without further trouble.
I regret your position in this mat
ter, for I have endeavored to be your
friend. True, you have not appre
ciated it, but I do not care to !i*ve
any trouble in the courts about the
payment of the expenses of uiis of
'jnH -a-milfl hp clnrl If vnu wniild
pay them without further contro
versy.
If you will notice, the above sec
tion specifies that "All occounts shall
be itemized and verified," and that "A
detailed statement thereof shall be
made to the general assembly at its
next ensuing session." This applies
to me and not to you. The accounts
are to be itemized and verified to this
office. I am responsible, not to you.
for what I do with the money paid
from this office and accounts app?- ved
by me.
Very respectfully,

Comptroller General's Letter
Comptroller General Jones sent the
following letter Thursday to Governor
Blease, giving his reasons for not
honoring the Creighton account:
Columbia, S. C., May 9, 1912.
Hon. Cole L. Blease, Governor, Co

TS OF DETECTIVES
FAILED TO ITEMIZE
i
your disposal for enforcement of law,
1 beg to say:
That section 793 of the code com
missioner's report, 1912, quotfd by
you requires, as you state, that such
"accounts be itemized and verified.''
Thic r<viiiiromoiit whpn m?df> in ref
erence to county claims, was passed i
upon by the supreme court in Bank
v. Goodwin, 81 S. C. 427. There the
court said: "There are very strong
practical reasons of public policy for
regarding the enactment mandatory
and not directory. The items and
oath are required not only that the
county boards of commissioners (in!
this case the governor) may be sat- |
isfied with the account, but that the
board and its successors in office (in '
thid case the comptroller general and |
legislative examining committees) as
weil as the grand jury and the citi-.
zens at large may, by examination of
the claims, ascertain how the affairs
of the county (in this case of the
state) have been conducted. If it
be within the power of the county
board of commissioners (here we may
say of the governor) to audit and
approve claims not made out with
items and verifications, it would be
ithin their power to allow claims so
made out as to give no information
as to their origin and character, and
thus keep those officially concerned
for the welfare of the county (in this
"instance, of the state) and the citi
7pti? f(>nprallv in oomnlete ignorance
of the management of public works
and appropriation of the public reve
nue," p. 429 and 431.
Again the court there said: "In
determining whether the claims were
itemized and verified as required by
law, substantial and not technical
and precise compliance with the let
ter of the statute should be the test.
. ... To itemize an account means
to state in detail the particulars of
it, so that the account may be exam
ined and its correctness tested." (This ^
means not only by the governor, but
also by the comptroller general be
fore he issues his warrant on the state
treasurer, and subsequently by them
generally, "when merely the different
articles furnished or the different ser
vices rendered are set down without
dates, one of the most important par
ticulars necessary to the examination
of the account is omitted. Especially
is this true "when the board, whose
duty it is to examine into the correct
ness of the account is limited to the
consideration of claims arising within ,
the current or preceding year.'*
. Mr. Creighton's account simply'
states: "For special services rendered1
for one month ending April 22, 1912." 1
This does not specify the particular 1
services of the particular dates when j
rendered and neither the comptroller
general or examing committee could
ascertain from this for what the mon
ey is to be paid.
I have no desire whatever to ham-:
per any officer in the enforcement of
law or performance of his duties. But
I was elected on the platform that
"Public office is public trust," ' and
"Public officials should be held to a,
rigid accountability for public funds." I
I therefore request that Mr. Creigh
ton's account to be so itemized aa to
let me know for what particular ser
vices he is being paid, in order that
the matter may be properly examined
into.
This has always been the practice
of this office, and of the governor's
office previous to your administra
tion. If this has been varied during
your administration it has been
through inadvertance. :
Respectfully yours
(Signed) A. W. Jones, I
Comptroller General.
Governor's Statement
When shown the correspondence
given out by the comptroller general (
Governor Blease said: "When I
return from Spartanburg I will look
up the law and if General Jones is
right I will have Mr. Creighton to
comply; if Mr. Creighton is right, I
will apply to the courts for a writ
of mandamus to compel the comp
troller general to pay the warrant."
The same course was pursued with
regard to the account of L. M. Green,
another special detective.

Avarafle Gferminatioh Testa at Made
by Papartment of Agriculture
Low as 81 Per Cent.
Owlhg to the poor corn Orop of the
country last year, the poorest for sev-1
?ral years, It Is announced, the supply !
of Beed corn for planting 1b generally
of Inferior quality. This has led the
Department of Agriculture to make ex
tensive tests of the germinating qual
ity of the seed corn available this
year, and the result has been to send
out a warning to the farmers of the
country.
The bureau of plant industry, under
Dr. B. T. Galloway, has tested 2,000
seed oorn samples. The average of
germination is low, 81 per cent, where
It should be 90 per cent. This would j
mean, under the same conditions as
were met the last crop, a reduction
of ten per cent In the corn crop of
the country. When It Is considered
that the corn crop Is the great crop of
the country, reaching half a billion
bushels In a good year, it is seen that
thli would mean a serious loss.
The testa were the more Important
because they showed the lowest aver
age of germination In the biggest of
the oorn-producing states. Virginia,
Kentucky and Maryland were between
87 and 90 per cent, which was not
such a bad showing, but states like
Indiana, Illinois and Ohio were below
80 per Sent, and North Dakota made
the minimum showing, with 56 per
cent
The circular sent to the farmers
urges them to get the best seed they
can find for planting. Ear oorn is
recommended and it is urged that
there should be a careful germination
teett made of each ear, and all in
ferior ears discarded. When the
farmer ha# to use shelled corn that
has not been previously tested for
germination he Is urged to test a sam
ple double the usual size, and then on
the basis of the germination test, to
plant plenty of corn to give a full
stand.
VALUE OF POULTRY MANURE
Maaaaohusetta Experiment 8tatlon
Give* New Version Concerning
Worth of Hen Droppings.
Prof. W. D. Hurd of the Massachu
setts experiment station has given a
new version concerning the value of
ben droppings. It follows:
Air-dried poultry manure contains
water 7.44, nitrogen 1.82, potash 1.11,
phosphoric acid 2.21. This is worth
from $6 to $9 a ton, compared with
$2.50 for common barnyard manure.
But its value depends upon the feed,
that from fattening fowls is better
than that from egg producers. Each
ben produoee a bushel of manure a
year.
One thousand hens should produce
fifteen tons of manure a year, worth

loses its value by bleaching. This
may be prevented by mixing it with a
sawdust or dirt, and by the use of
chemical preservatives. It Bhould be.
stored under cover In covered barrels
and packed tightly together to keep
tt from the air. It should not be used
for top 4re*aing, but mixed with the
soli and applied principally to garden
crop?. ,
Purpose of Tarring Corn.
Tarring corh is done to protect the
seed from crows, ground squirrels,
field mice and moles. In some places (
these pests do so much damage to the ,
seed that the prospect for a crop is ,
cut off before the Beeds have a chance ,
to germinate.
The seed is put in a box or vessel
of some convenient size, and a thin |
coating of tar is spread over it. Plant
ing is done in the same manner as if
no tar was on the seeds. The odor <;
of the tar will keep injurious pests |
away even after the seed haa sprout
ed.
Keeping Tree* In 8hape.
If the trees are carefully looked
over about three times during the
growing season, and the ends of those
shoots that are growing too long are
pinched off, the tree may be kept to
the desired shape. But where a shoot
has been overlooked it Is better to cut
It out when found than wait until
winter. Negligence during the grow
ing season is about the only logical
reason for severe winter pruning.
Chlokenc With Free Run.
According to Professor KempBter of
the poultry department at the Univer
sity of Missouri the orchard or the
oornfleld la the ideal place for poultry
raising. The henB get plenty of exer
cise and plenty of animal food in the
form of grubs and insects. Cloae con
finement is never so good for hens as
wide range.
Borax Water for Lice.
Dip the birds Id borax water. It ,
frees tbem from lloe. Take one-half ,
pound borax to three gallons of warm ,
water. This method is equal to the t
beet lice powder* and much cheap- >
er. One may choose a sunny day for J
the dipping, which is best done in the ,
morning. .

Lowudesville, May 13?Friday even

building took placc, the closing exer

ing being movable, were taken out,
and the building merged into one
large hall. It was decorated and was
quite attractive. The first exercises
consisted of some plays upon the part
of the teachers and pupils. These all
performed their parts well and at
times were, loudly applauded. Then
the Rev. J. C. Chandler, sometime ago
offered a Bible to the scholar making
highest average in each grade?as he
could not be present, being away
from home, to make the presentation
of the prizes the help of Rev. J. T.

Miss Ruby Fiquette, Miss Louise Bell,
Miss Elise Harden, Wallace Cooley
and two extra prizes to Miss Fiquette
and Miss Virginia Latimer. Then Rev.
R. W. Humphries went forward and
presented medals to the following:
Miss Virginia Latimer for highest
average in composition; Miss Moselle
Huckabee, for highest average in
Seventh grade; Fannie Fiquette,
highest average in Seventh grade;

mark in spelling Sixth grade; Emma
Southerland highest mark in spelling
Fourth grade;Olivia Drennan, highest
mark in spelling Third grade. This
was quite a creditable ending of the
scholastic year. The promise of prizes
no doubt caused those contending for
them, to put forth extra effort to
train them, and will no doubt be pro

it was recently asked if tltfj authorities
in charge of tho Olympian Games this
year, to be held in Stockholm, would per
mit the competitors to carry oxygen bags
to take wind's from while they run; it was
contended- and this by so eminent a scan
tiest as Sir Edwin Kay Lankester?that
"as oxygen gas is not a drug, but as nat
ural an article of consumption as water,
there seems to be yo reason why tho run-'
ner should be disqualified from refreshing
himself with it, as he may with water or
soup." Oxygen gas is a drug in the souse
that it has value in cases of impaired res
piration, such as counts or lobar pneumo
nia. Otherwise pure oxygen is as harm
ful as any stimulant, for the stimulation
is followed by depression. Frequent in
toxication by this moans must inevitably
exhaust the vitality and shorten life. Nor
