The above statement if the Superin
tondent, shows In a condensed form the
work dono by the Board of Public
Works from the installation of the
Electric Light and Water Works Plant
in 1897 to Sept. 1900. It shows that
from the sale of bonds, &c., $42,679.2l
was realized, and that tho cost of the
Plant as turned over to tho Board
amiouited to $39,852.71, leaving a bitl
anco on hand of $2,826.50.
Wit,h this balanco, and the revenue
collected from private consumers of
wator and incandescent lights, and the
city for the use of water, and the are
lights, and the profits arising from the
lighting of houses, and connecting
salo with the electrle system and con
necting privato consumers with the
water system, the hoard has been able
to expend in extensions on the water
and light plant an( permanent imn
provemonts the sum of $4,84-14.65, show
ing an approximate not rovenue over
expenses of $2,018.1.5.
The Board would report that the
resorvuir, estimated to cost $1,700 has
never booa received, and that there is
pressing need that a good substantial
now resurvoir should be built. And as
thoro is a presslng and constant, de
mandtl( upion the Board, that the Water
Mains and Electric Light Plant be so
extended that all taxpayers may have
equal access to, and use of same, thus
giving to all taxpayers equal privi
logos, and the city an increased re-e
nue thereby.
The Board|would re'juest council to
take such action as may be0 best to bring
this mnatter up before the citizons.
For there is no fund upon which the
Board can draw to make extensions and1(
improvemnents, as they are fuirnishing,
as it, was contempilated, light,s and
water at nearly actual cost, at rates
lower than are charged in neighboring
cit,ies, and unless some action uipon tis
subject is taken at once, as the Board
has already proplosed to the council.
They will either have '.o ask tile coun
oil to make tbe necessary appropr'ia
tions for thleso extensions, or tbe Board
will have to increase the rates charged
the council for t,be year 19)00, the rate
proposed to the town was Si8 00 for
exeh fire hydrant, and 879.57 for each
are light of 2,000 eandle power, when
Greenville is payhng 805.00 for each arc
light of 1,200 candle power, or the lloard
munst ask the city to authorize the issue
of 85,000 in bonds, to build a reservoir
and make the needed extensions.
The Board takes pleasure in calling
the attention of thle oiLy to the good
condit,ion of bot,h the Water and 10l0e
trio Light Plants, with the exception
of the reservoir, and refers with p)ride
that owing to the efilent euper'vision
of theoSuperintendent,, the proper light
hig oIf the city has never failed except
from s0ome providential cause, and that,
during these three years the city has
never failed to have a sumcienc.y of
water, for all fire and drinking pur
poses, and today has an unfailitng sup
p)ly of as pure drinking water an any
cIty in the State.

Columbia, D)ecember 15i.--Special:
1It in romiarkab)lo how wv oil the busi
noss of the State dispensary keeps
up. Although it may be regarded
an "a step towards prohibition," the
State dispensary in now doing t,he
larigelt b)usinn"s5 withini its history.
This in largely accouinted for by the
gradlual starv'ing out or the illicit
Commissioner CJrum states that the
shlipmenits of the dispen~Isary aggro
gato $14,500Ot a day, and the dispen
nors thbroughmout the State are clamor
ing for mor.' liquor and inisisting.
that Ity ought b: havo more stock.
It is to be remembered that the
State now has on hand in the various
diispensiios three to four hundred
II. ousand dollars worth of stock.
Commiiis-oner Crum says that the
heav iest domandsb aro' for the cheaper
giaduues of lignor. The domand for
'whi ito"' corn is particularly heavy
Mr. Crum nays that it is somewvhat
pecu~1liar that the upper counties in.
siht npion hiavinig "'white'" corn and
the lower coutiois of the Stato waut
"yeollow" corn.
The State dispensary seems to be
doing a very boavy business in case
goods, and1( it would appear as a
strictly business matter that now
that the dispensary has a complete
monopoly it ought to be able to bot
tle its own liquor aned get out its own
special branids if they have to be got
ton out, it may be very well to
handle a fewv well known brands,
but it does seem ridiculous for the
dispensary to be introducing new
gr-ades of case goods at almost every
meeling of the board. It is to be
rem emibe red that ease goods come
higher than barrel goods to the State
dispensary as well as to the conau.
