A groat deal lias boon w ritten in tho' j
rust few mouths about n deficit in tho
St ii t oh llnuncos, uihI tho perplexing
duty tho legislature would have to meat
tho situation. Whilo it its true that tho
question of taxation will bo ono o t tho
mobl Knotty problems for soliifiou,
thero in not much dilloronco in Iho
flnnueial situation now, though it has
boon for several years pod. H has boon
tho policy of tho State to borrow from
Potoy to pay Paul, and as a cr/nsenuonco
tho govormnont has not boon run on a
cash basis. It has boon found noco^ary
each year to borrow money to moot tho
ujurront expenses of tho Stat o, this
iVhiotUit usually boing $100, 000 or in
that noigborhood. This condition arises
from tho fact that tho lovy has novor
been nntticiont to" moot tho "rtTufftuI ap
mopriution, by reason of the low n.'istfsfc
iffout usually i?lacod on pioporlV by
'Taxpayers. I'lio legislature in its ap
propriation would take in consideration
tho amount of money to bo colloctcd in
taxes b\it it novor bothered itsolf about
tho I it t Jo oircumstanco that tho Stato
was behind and had to borrow money.
Hence, it has boon for years tho custom
to uso tho taxoH ollcclod and not yet
appropriated, in order to meet current
expenses. No consideration has boon
taken of this fact, and annually
tho sumo thing has boon going on,
leaving a dolicit as far as appropriat ions
aro concerned of about $100,000. This
year Treasurer Timmorman has sue- '
coedod in pulling through without bor
rowing, thanks to $110, out) paid in by
the dispensary. lint this aid will no
longer bo nvuilablo, for no inoro of tho
profits can bo u?od for tho genoral
fund. Stato Treasuror 'rimmerman
soiuotiino ago, in BPeoking of this
matter, said it w as best and cheapest
for tho Sj*to to run on a cash basis, and
t Inw&iYiul only bo dono by an increaso
in thO-'Fovy or higher assessments. Ifo
in fully awaro 01 tho foot that the legis
lator who proposes this must liavo a
stilt" political backbone, especially in
view of 11 vo cent cotton. Buthobo
liovos matters will grow worso unless
something is dono and tho sooner the
attempt, at least, is tuado tho better.
?Such a course may moan tho political
death of t'lio man who advocates it, bull
ho will dio in a patriot ic cause, if that
will be any solace to him. As already
said, tho situation as to tho actual do
licit is not different from that of other
years, it will bo when tho receipts ot
ISt?7-U8aro ponsiderod. Thero w ill bo
no dispensary fund and no phosphate
royalty to help out the treasury. Thoro
scorn a to bo little in tho' way of cur
tailing tho appropriations, and if legis
lators do not adopt Mr. Timmorman's
plan, it looks as if tho Stato will bavo
to contiuuo borrowing at interest. -

At tho last meeting of tho Stato
Uoard of Control a special coimuitteo
was appointed to look into tho question
of tho nocossily for a reduction in tho
pricosof beer and whiskoy to in(?ot tho
(). I'. stores. Mr. <A>outhit, tho chair
man <)f llllll C?Mli !!! v.!!!! ill ColUiiY-'
bin a low. days ago and handed tho
pi inter tho re vised schedule of prices.
In a uoneral way, however, it may bo
stated that thero is no change whatever
ill tho pricos of tho ordinary grades of
liquor sold in tho dispensaries. The
reductions huvo all boon made 011 the
fine whisk ion, case goods, etc., wines,
ales, porter and beer. Tho chief change
consists in the placing on tho market of
a-throo-for-a-quartor boor. Tho new'
price lists w ill doubtless bo sent out
111 a few days and tho dispen
sers all over tho State instructed to
make their sales in accordance with
them. This is tho first time that an ef
fort has been mado by tho disponsaVy
authorities to meet tho competition of
tho (>. I', stores in various sootiona of
(lie State, but now O. J', agoucios uro
running 10 nearly every town and it
becomes necessary for lljo Stato to meet
tho competition squarely and fairly.
About tho 1st of January tho Stato
dispensary w ill have paid into tho treas
ury $70, duo, which w ill ho available for
tho public schools of tho State. Tho
Stato board of education will mectdur
11);/ tho month of January to divide the
money, among tho various counties. The
basis of tho division 1 1 1 bo upon tho
figures iinndo up by ( ';ourf?trol lord leu
oral Norton before ho decided how
much money would bo needed from tho
' Stato dispensary to give tho ?-'{ per

State. Tho dispensary fund available
in January will bo distributed upon a
basis of tho school attendance for 1 ><!)'?,
and not for tho present year.

rial to tho prisoner's guilt has boon1
prOduood siuoo tho trial. It is urged
that tho idoutiflo^on of tho prisoner
was inoomploto ~%u\ uusatisfaotory;
tu at an alibi was completely proven by
witnesses of both races, aud that Iho
admittod facts of tho cnso strongly' in
dicated that tho porpotrator ojf the
cruuo was familiar with tho habits of
tho prosecutrix in walking along thut
certain path, and at that certain hour
whon tho criuio . was committed; thut
the prisoner could not have known
tliouo things becauso ho was virtually
ft atraugor iu town; that ho had ouly
been thoro onco inside of a yoar and
honoo it is most unlikoly that ho
should havo known tho prosecutrix or
boon familiar with hor habits. <Ao to
tho trtyt'h of theso allegations, no opin
ion is expressed, but they como from
sources i-o worthy of consideration as
to demand time for oloso scrunity and
thoughtful investigation. It further
appears from documentary ovidonce
that thoro is a aontimont to tho oU'oot
that aside from tho guilt or innocence
of thia prisoner, it, would be bost for
tho couuty that tho sontonco of tho
jourt bo at onco oxooutod. This scn

Tho Savannah Nowa Bays: "Tho
planters o( South Carolina, Georgia and
Florida are not suffering booauso of tho
ourront low prioos of cotton to the ox
tont that tbev would in all probability
liavo suftoreij a f^w .years ago with the
samo prioafor tho reason that thoy are
now diversifying their orops and raiaiDg
thejr provisions. Thoy aro, however,
heavy losers through the fact that woro
cotton is boing produced than the world
wants, ov the ability of speculators to
depress tho pricoa of the staple until the
crop iB all out of tho hands of the pro
ducers, n? the caso may be. But wnat
over may be the oauao of tho low price
of cotton, it is ovident that thoro mjist
bo tttill furtuor diversification of orops.
Cotton must bo givon lesa attention and
acroago, ?ml other orops more
of oach. v Tobaoco Booms to bo
ono of ' tho most promising
money ordps for thia eootion. After
tho disaator to tho Florida orange grovos
many of tho grovo-ownorB turned their
attention to vogotablo, grain and to
bacco crops, and today thoy aro inoro
pror.porous than thoy were "before thoir
orange treos were destroyed. Thoorango
trooa aro now growing again, and tlio
indications aro that it will not be a
groat whilo boforo tho fruit will bo aa
groat a sourco of rovenuo in Florida us
over boforo. But tho planters will not
give up thoir vogetablos, grain and to
bacco and again depend altogether upon
oranges. Tho orango crop will be some
what in tho nature of an oxtra Bourooof
income. Thoro is considerable tobacco
grown in >Soutli Carolina and more in
Florida. Uoorgia produoos but liltlo.
Tho cliniato and soil of dliia Stato, how
evor, aro well adapted to tho cultivation
of tho tobacco plant. Tobacco growing
iu tho State would not be an experi
ment. Boforo cotton became -tho groat
orop, tobacco was grown on tho Georgia
soacoast and for a lnmdrod milos in
land. "
like every other crop, needs
nourishment.
A fertilizer containing nitro
gen, phosphoric acid, and not
less than 3% of actual
I
u
will increase the crop and im-.
prove the land.
