THE BOTTOM IS OUT
The legislature after doing nothing
for two months, now comes forward
with a proposition to put a general
sales^tax on all businesses. Our mer
chants are already taxed to death, and
yet the general assembly is not sat
isfied and is striving to put still fur
ther burdens upon their shoulders.
The bill should be killed but more than
likely it will pass. One can never
tell what & South Carolina legislature
will do. After l>eing in session since
early in January, it has been unable
to find" sufficient revenue to cover the
appropriation bill, to say little of the
$2,000,000 deficit which stares it in
the face.
The bottom of the state treasury is
out. The legislature is trying to
put it back and taxpayers might as
well get ready to be pinched. Partic-
ularly is this true as regards our
merchants and business corporations.

years have been years of progress and
we should all feel a personal pride in

years, the college has had its finan

it and pressing for solution. To liqui
date its indebtedness is a difficult
! task that its new president must face,
and in his efforts in this direction, the
board of trustees and Presbyterians of
the state should rally to him.
The survey now under way by these
distinguished educators from Tennes

dear-cut insight into the college and
its activities. Such an investigation,
accurately setting forth its true con

estimable good. Its forthcoming will

Mr. Bruce Findlay, assistant super

wonder is that our town has not been
burnt up before now. We have been
visited with few serious fires and
for this we should be profoundly
• grateful. Should we have had a dis
astrous fire in the business section,
we would have been helpless with our
present inadequate and antiquated
equipment.
The proposition has gone before
council by the local firemen to pro
vide adequate fire facilities for the
protection of the lives and property
of the community. The public-spirit
ed and faithful young men who com
prise our volunteer department have
not told us so, but we imagine they
feel as though they are about ready
to discontinue their efforts unless the
city gives them equipment and a suf
ficient wait i pressure with which to
get results. If they feel this way, we
don't Marne them.
The city is gathering information
. and hopes within the near future to
plaie an order for a fire truck and
ample pumper at Beard’s Fork creek.
The city being without funds, it is
contemplated to buy the equipment on
long term notes for the present, but
it is very probable that after a few
years be able to liquidate the
remainder cf this obligation.
As the city proceeds to improve its
fire department, council should have
before, it the requirements of the Un
derwriters Insurance Association and
these specifications should be met in
every particular with the end in view
of bringing about lower insurance
rates, heverai of these requirements
have already been met. The instal-

physician and the patient. Our folks
are becoming educated—and very
properly—in many of the up-to-date
methods in treating disease. Inject

with almost miraculous results, and in
many with disaster following.
I hare never given an intravenous j

one of my most esteemed specialist-
