BRITISH WAR BILL -r Debt at Close of Year Amounting to Eleven Billion Dollars. "* The greatest war budget In the world's history was introduced in the house of commons last Tuesday by Reginald McKenna, chancellor of the exchequer, as another step toward g financing the war, which now is costing Great Britain $25,000,000 daily. Mr. McKenna, in his budget speech estimated that tne government s revenue for the current year would be $1,360,000,000, that the expenditures would reach ?1,590,000,000, and that the dead weight of debt at the close of the financial'year would be ?2,200,000,000. New military requirements and changed methods of warfare have created over-night additional expenditures which had not been reckoned with, even in the comparatively recent estimates of David Lloyd-George, munitions minister, necessitating in this budget, the third since the butbreak of hostilities, the most drastic %and far-reaching taxes in the history of the country, and involving even trade. Hereafter automobiles, bicycles, moving picture dims, clocks, watches, musical instruments, plate glass and hats will pay a tax of 33 1-3 per cent ad valorem, though, as Mr. McKenna A explained, the objects of such taxation are "purely temporary and without regard to a permanent efTect on trade," being primarily designed to discourage imports and remedy the foreign exchange situation. Spirits and beer, which have been the subject of so much agitation, remained untouched. The principal blow fell on Incomes, the existing tax on incomes not only being jumped 40 per cent, but its scope widened so as to catch even workingmen earning as little as $14 weekly. The very wealthy mus' contribute to the government more than onethird of their revenue. The one-cent mail will be abolished entirely, and the weight heretofore 4 carried in the mails for two cents will be reduced. The rate on telegrams, ^ which Is twelve cents for twelve words is Increased to eighteen cents, and there is aJso to be a proportionate increase in telephone charges. / SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS * ?

Newberry, September 22: News came from Goldviile this morning of an accident that happened there yesterday afternoon at 5.30 o'clock, when JHR Mrs. L. W. C. Blalock. driving an automobile, ran over Clarke White near the cotton mill there, so injuring Mr. White that he died two hours later. The car got beyond the control of the driver, who had not had much experi0> ence. She is greatly grieved over the accident, and her sister, Mrs. J. R. Green, left here by the first train for Goldville to be with. her. ? Beaufort, September 22: At council meeting Monday night, Mayor Danner and Councilman Richardson locked horns over employment of counsel In the bank back tax case to be heard in December in the circuit court. The mayor insisted on the city's case being left in .the hands of the city attorney/ Mr. Talbird. Mr. Richardson voted to1 allow the city treasurer to employ special counsel on the ground that Mr. Talbird at the hearing before Judge Rice at Aiken had taken the part of the tax dodgers and did not appear at all at the hearing before Judge Shipp at Florence, though instructed by the council to do so. He contended that the city would have lost both cases if the treasurer had not sent Attorney George W. Beckett to represent him and that at Aiken Mr. Talbird contended that Mr. Beckett should not be heard at all and went on to present arguments why the tax should not be collected. Councilman Marscher, cashier of the bank in question, took no part in this discussion, havine been enioined bv Judtre Rice at ? Aiken from further interference in the effort to collect this tax. The mayor's ^ vote defeated the effort to give the council's sanction to allowing the treasurer to employ his own counsel. ? Columbia State, Friday: Governor Manning announced yesterday that he ^ would not interfere with the judgment of the court in the cases of the state vs. Meek Griffin, Tom Griffin, John Crosby and Nelson Brice, four negroes sentenced to be electrocuted for murder, from Chester county. The governor feels that the verdict of the jury in the cases should not be overruled. The board of pardons heard this case at its meeting on September 8, and unanimously recommended that there be no interference with the judgment of the court. These negroes were sentenced to be electrocuted on September 3, but on August 13, the governor, on account of representations made to him that there would be presented to the board of pardons good reasons for commuting the sentences of the negroes to life imprisonment, granted a reprieve staying the execution until September 29, in order that the matter might be presented to the board of pardons at its meeting on * September 8. This action of the governor means that the negroes will be electrocuted on next Wednesday. Deposits Grow by Millions.?The statements by the national banks in New York city in response to the call * of the comptroller of the currency for the condition of the national banks of the country on September 2, 1915, show an unusually large increase in deposits over June 23, 1915, the date of the previous call. The largest gain was made by the National Bank of Commerce which in the interval between the two calls increased its deposits $53,192,000, bringing them up to $238,271,000. This bank is now second in the list of the national banks reporting deposits, taking the place of the Continental and Commercial bank of Chicago, which held second place for some time. Other institutions reporting large increases were: ^ National City bank, $32,569,000. Mechanics and Mer.als, $30,937,000. Phnup Vntiftniil f*>K HHA Hanover National. $27,866,000. When compared v/ith the statements of September 12, 1914, however, the figures are more striking. The two statements show that in the ^ period of not quite one year the National City bank gained $146,094,000. The next in order came Chase National, with a gain of $76,132,000; National Bank of Commerce, $69,205,000; Hanover National, $65,223,000; Continental and Commercial of Chicago. $61,175,000, and Mechanics and Metals, $61,081,000.?New York Sun. ? President Wilson and former Secretary Bryan met at the White House last Wednesday, for the first time since the latter resigned from the . cabinet three months ago. Mr. Bryan sought the interview "to pay respects." For nearly an hour the two were together in the Green room and they parted smiling. What the president had said, Mr. Bryan declined to reveal, nor would he intimate what subject he himself had broached. The White ' House gave out no information beyond the statement that there had been a "general talk" pleasant and cordial. From the fact that Mr. Bryan is con4";? templating a trip to Europe in the interest of peace and from the opposition he has already expressed to large expenditures for national defenses, official Washington assumed that he had touched on both subjects in his conversation with the president. It is understood, however, that the president is not disposed to approve or disapprove the idea of the trip to Eu rope, and that he had not yet formed his own conclusions as to the national defense programme. Mr. Bryan told friends later that he himself was undecided as to whether or not he would go to Europe, and that he had speaking engagements up to November , 1, so that it was unlikely that he would reach a decision before then. He left today to continue his lecturing for peace and will also make a number of speeches on national defense. Mr. Bryan's visit to the White House attracted wide attention. In an electric automobile, which he drove himself. he appeared at noon. A few minutes before. Secretary uanieis naai presented Henry Ford, the automobile manufacturer, to the president. Later I in the day Mr. Ford and Mr. Bryan conferred in the latter's home concerning the forwarding of the peace movement against national preparedness. ? Ott Johnson, a farmer residing on T. F. Anderson's place near Reidsville, Spartanburg county, killed himself as he sat in the door of his home late Wednesday by discharging a doublebarrelled shotgun into his forehead. Johnson is said to have been ill for some time and despondent. He was 38 years of age and is survived by a widow and two daughters. Coroner Turner of Spartanburg county, said that this was the third inquest he had held in the Johnson family within the last year and a half. During the past summer George Johnson, a brother of the man who ended his life Wednesday, accidentally killed his infant daughr ter when a whip he was chastising an older child with flew out of his hand. More than a year ago a sister ended her life.

JNO. R. LOGAN The AGENT of ANOTHER Company But Who Carries Insurance On His Own Life In the Mutual Benefit, Says:? "If the average business man wore in position to personally observe the extraordinary liberality of the Mutual Benefit in the treatment of its policyholders, the claims It pays (which no other company would pay), and the privileges it confers (which no other company ever conferred), I repeat, if the average business man had personal knowledge of these facts, you could sell all the insurance you wanted without a sales force." While the agent above quoted states an exact truth, it Is also true that the "average business man," as well as all other kinds, leap before they look and buys life insurance from the agent who first presents the matter to them or for personal reasons rather than taking the trouble to Geo whether or not all companies are "about the same." I am prepared to prove all the companies doing business in this section are "about the same," except the Mutual Benefit, and that it is in a class by itself. Look Before You Leap. SAM M. GRIST.
