vendor Ansel Thinks the People
H? "do not Need Postponement of
Time to Pay Taxes.
T pP0V* Ansel w*ll not extend the time
the payment.of taxes, says a
Columbia dispatch to the Greenville
Stffivvs. The governor after eonsulta?n
loday with Comptroller General
1 Mnes .camo to tlie conclusion that
pgore .is no necessity for the extenJgjm,
since the penalty for the first
jip&onth is very light, only one per
<$ent, and since also the stale needs
k ;poney badly at this time to meet its
kgy$wn obligations. If the general as g'vsembly
consider that any assistance
the taxpayers is needed, it' can be'
Rendered by the remission of the one
WBner eent penalty, for the month of
jj^^fjanunry, which will amount to the
IflnPxtcnsion of (he time for that period.
^tffijJJompt'roller General Jones stated on
Hfonday I hat he saw no necessity for
Any extension and that the penalty
J|ia<l been made light by the general
fssemljly 'n order that there might be
ww10 demand ^or such aiction.
l'P"'? ^ax m?uey was coming in
*nore froo|y to the offices of the Estate
^treasurer on Monday. The morning
wmail brought remittances to the
' amount of $40,000. Saturday about
#$80,000 was sent in, making $120,000
Jfrwithin the last two business days,
ft But tliis is not enough, and (he state
is still hard up. The slate is obliged
a to pay- oiit $240,000 tomorrow and
P next day and it was seen last week
that there would not be funds on
: hand lo meet these obligations. Ac;
cordingly State Treasurer Jennings
was called back from his Christmas
trip to his old home in Fairfield and
the governor decided that it would be
W * -well to renew a note for $50,000,
^ which was done. The note was ex\
l tended for 20 days, with the prit
vilege of further extension if needk
ed. The stale will within a few
^vi' days after the first day of the year
; have sufficient money to meet all its
obligations, 'but as (he tax remittances
have been slow it was impossible
to get the money (o New York
in time to meet the notes due on the
^ 31st- of this month.
On the first of January there is
about' $140,000 interest due and there
were notes for $100,00 due on the
31st. of December, making obligations
to the amount of $240,000 due the
next two days, in addition to cur\
rent expenses of the government.
Ganderbone's January Forecast.
(Copyright 15)07 by C. IT. Fiioth.)
"What are (he bugles blowin' for"?"
' Said Bach'lor on parade;
"Tt's Now Year Day, its New Year
Day,"
Tiie Woman Hater said.
'"What makes you look so while, so
white?"
t Said Bach'lor on parade;
u "I'm dreadin' what we've got to
face,''
If The Woman llater said.
^ '4 For Leap Year is upon us,
.And the girls will use a wire,
F' They'll hook us like a poodle
When the licenses expire,
An' they'll dump us in the wagon
An' we're off to find a squire,
For they're laying for the bach'lor
In the mornin'."
The big bet' for this month will Ik?
Taft. The Atlantic fleet will ap
proach the Horn with a bent spyglass,
looking around for Japs. "O,
Ilell," whispered in Uncle Joe Cannon's
ear, will be (he pass-word to
get anything before congress. Japan
will have a slack month at the
Nagasaki navy yards, and will
build only twenty-seven more war
ships. The guess on Roosevelt's future
for this month will be that he
will become a congressman after lve
leaves the white house, and will go
into the ring with Williams and DeArtnond.
Mr. Bryan will walk around
the Democratic iwun'ination with a
"hammer, to see if there is any place
where he could nail it down. Money
will continue shy, rising out of range
and flying eight miles. Mr. Dawson
will put his mask on and go back into
the game, jobs will continue to
run wlnn they see you coming, and
sorr clime during Hi* ?ronth Mr.
Morgan will decide whether he has
all the money lie wants now, or if he
will continue the panic.
After the 20th we shall be under
the influence of Aquarius the water
carrier, and eleventh sign of the Zodiac.
Under this favorable sign,
Prohibition will establish about
eighty' more storm centers, booze
will run another mile in nothing
south oi' the Mason and Dixon line,
and Carrie Nation will work with a
hatchet in each hand. To quote an
'Omar of' the Oklahoma desert,
Hush little bar-room,
Don't you cry?
You'll be a drug-store
By and by.
January was named after Janus
mtVous, knowa ? "WFaeod J,,?.
Ho was tno originator of what
is known a* "the politician's lifeMlver\
A wave of prohibition was
sweeping Home, anil Bifrons' a eanc
idate for the senate, had to declare
unbelt one way or the other to every
third man he met. But he was
a oxy Dago, and when lie was asked,
1 ? you drink, Dillons'/" he would
slyly ask in return, "Is this an invik'nowr"''
y?" j"S' W":" t0
Homo had a gate named for Janus,
t led from the Palatine to the Quiri?ui
llill, and was closed only when
Koine was at peace with the world.
vT oocurred but four times?un.ley
Numa, Augustus Caesar and Vospatian,
and after the first Punic War
Julius Caeser kept the gate open
wider than anybody. J.ust to satisty
himself that no other Roman had
ever had anything on him in this respect,
ho once drove twenty loads of
hay through the gate abreast, as
against a record of fourteen loads,
(aesar was a great joker, and his
favorite pun was made at this gate.
Biding through when the sun was
setting, he pointed at the sunset with
<>?'< .an ! and at the pacing railroad
construction crow with the other
ami ox,lai,,lis lieiilemmtsj
nehold, tiie day goes!"
Another year (mark well the rhyme)
lias joined the Host or Father Time.
A tew more solid banks will burst
Jo many trusting one's disgust,
"lie widow decently 'bereft
pop the question right and loft,
And luckless man, of Leap Year bull
Hill scramble for the tall uncut.
Hie sport in congress will consist
0 ml lies with the liorney fist, the
gentleman Missouri bred will call
some one a noodle head; they'll
clinch and bile each other's cheek
the frightened galleries will shriek!
the speaker will get out a gun, the
man from, Arkansas will run, the
^'Swniit will blot through a door,
1 ie fi?ht will spread upon the floor,
the clerk will climb the chaplain's
nick, and the air will sound with
Bill and Whack; the War Departmont
mi 11 turn out, the senate will
ffet in ll.e bout, the Fairbanks with
triumphant, cry, will black Hon Tinman's
other eye; the President will
f lus ,lat? his boxing glovos and
trusty bat, and will exclaim on coming
back, "All's quiet on the Po-lo
mack!"
After that we shall have very pleasant
weather. The moon will be full
on tin; 18th, and persons we nevei
hoard of will l?e mentioned for vicepresident.
The Fish-Jin rriman tight
will go into the tenth round, and Mr.
Fish will complain to The Hague tri,)l,nal
timt Mr. Harahan is' usin?
knucks. General Funstoii, on guard
nt OoldfieKl, will appeal to Secretary
Mel call to transfer him to Washin^fn
whore I lie fighting is goin? on;
Christmas presents will be exchanged
lor something you want, and Japan,
hearing that the fleet is to keep right
on across the Pacific, will move ovei
11,0 mainland and dig evclonc
collars.
Persons born in January have cold
toot, and do not. play poker. If Hio.\
are born under the inf/uwnce of Aquanus
thv> water carrier, rirey will
vote dry. They are very ingenious
and know how to (urn (he gas melei
hack. They have large families and
small incomes. They are good at fimires
and can tell you whether a woman's
shape is real or excelsior. Tiie\
are slow to marry, but can get a divorce
as quick as anybody. . They arc
very shrewd in money matters,* and
never give their wives the money.
Don't answer the doorbell this
month. It's a book agent. Keep the
silverware under the coal pile. If yon
come homo Into at nighf, look out foi
highwaymen, and walk in the middle
ot the street, as the policeman does,
Don f, write love letters. She will
save them.
The trusts will continue to show
us where to head in, and congress
will vote our money like it. was
their's. The fashionable wintering
places for the month will be Southern
California and the Florida coast
and all trains bound to those points
will bo loaded with plasterers an 1
bricklayers, with their families.
And tlren the short lived month of
?b. when woman will complete her
web, and foolish man will buzz aiboui
until the spider dashes out. and nails
him neatly to (he mast for so long
as his life shall last.
Hut notwithstanding D?ap Year's
tricks,
And maids' and widows' weeds,
And though our hard luok comes
along
Just like a string of beads,
Cheer up, cheer up! It's not so bad
With us as 'tis with Ted',
Who had to come to it and knock
His third term in the head.
