aiken treasurer in l
quandary
LEGISLATIVE ACT DIRECTS HIMfF
TO DO WHAT LAW FORBIDS 1
PIS DOING
Aiken, March 23.?Mr. Wesley i
Yonce, treasurer of Aiken County, is
in a quandary. An Act of the Legislature
directs him to do what he re
says the law forbids his doing.
At the recent session of the Leg- ^
'slature a bili was passed known as m
"The Augusta-Aiken Boulevard Bill,' fa
providing for the county commiss- or
ioners to draw their warrant upon su
Stl
the treasurer for five thousand dol- '
lars, the same to be applied in build- pj
ing the boulevard between this place be
and North Augusta, as the terminal all
of said road. The bill then directs i ca
the treasurer to pay this five thous- J ^
and dollars out of the "surplus |
school fund." The bill met with i mi
violent opposition in 1 his countv. be- ne
j cause it provided lor diverting the
j school money. The delegation de-1
j fended themselves b> stating that j lo
i the money was merely to be bor-: he
i rowed, and would be paid back-by j en
| the cities of Aiken and North Au-!
gusta out of the dispensary profits, i en
Treasurer Yonce says the law for- i
bids him to pay out school money a.
except upon warrent of the school cc
trustees. Therefore, he says, he is dr as
vecte.l in different ways. One or the w
other law m st be violated, in the
event -the county commissioners
draw theii warrant as thev are emvv
powered, but not directed to do.' c?
It looks very much as though the ej
Augusta Aiken boulevard will not ol
recieve the $5,000. The citizens along
the road and in Augusta and Aiken t(
have liberally subscribed to the hum
,| # . P
for thg bitUdmg of th?.?\rui the
promise of $5,000 from Aiken coun- P
i ty. Their portion of the road is be'
ir.g built, but as the matter has been
and is so violently opposed, it is p
probable that the maPcr will be e
1 dropped. If the warrant is drawn
citizens say they stand ready to.

In view of the constant misrep- ^

ng public by many so-called ma- of
cians whose cleverness is limited
a few juggling feats, etc., the t
anagement desires to impress the
ct that this attraction is not to be 1
roneouslv confounded with any
ch, but that it is as represented? un
rictly a high-class entertainment, m;
eriting the very best patronage,
le stage equipment is elaborate,

their own draperies, curtains, S>1

Mr. W. H. Monckton, Jr.. the

roin the great variety

lisplayed at his store since his reurn
their can be no doubt that Mr.
Vlonckton left a good round sum of
his worlds where-with-all up in the

The Globe Dry Goods Company
nave recently finished an addition
to their already immense establishment
and in this splendidly lighted

? .. j plate uiey nave
placed the millinery department.
To go into detail and even give
an intelligible sketch of the many
handsome costumes, hats and all
that is so dear to a woman's
heart would take columns of space,
so suffice it to say that the millinery
department is under the
direction of a trained artist and
that Mr Monckton has given her
the tools to work with unmolested
and unrestricted.
The crockery department and
many articles so useful to the housekeeper
have been removed from the
basement and placed on the first
floor where they can be more
readily seen.
Mr. Monckton is an excellent buyer
and his long experience has
given him the knowledge that
many lack.
