THE TEACHER.-' PAY
Gov. Atkinson Holds a C«»n»ul atiun With
Treasurer
Gov. Atkinson held a consultation
with Treasurer Speer jestirday in
regard to the payment of 8,000 public
school teachers for the three months
ending October 1. The teachers want
their money and there is not enough
in the treasury to pay them.
“It is a mistake to say that we have
tried to borrow and had trouble to
get it,’’ said the governor. 'The
state can borrow without any trouble
but it does like to do so when it seems
likely that enough tax has been col
lected to pay the teachers. What we
need is a law like that or Fulton coun
ty, requiring the tax collector to pay
collections to the treasurer as soon as
they amount to $3,000 or $5,000 ”
It appears that ouly about $60,000
of this year's tax has been received by
the treasurer, and this is so small a
part of the annual collections that
considerable amounts are supposed to
be held back by the collectors. It
seems that a custom prevails by which
banks make bond for tax collectors
and as a return favor, the tax collect
ed is deposited with them. Under the
law no fi. fas. can be issued till Dec
ember 20, and the advantage is often
taken of this to hold the taxes in
banks in the counties in which it is
collected. If this money were
promptly remitted the school teach
ers could be paid, but as it is, the
banks get the benefit and the teacheis
have to wait.
Governor Atkinson thinks the time
for issuing fi. fas. is too late, as crops
and collections are earlier than they
used to be, and in many cases, all
movable property, out of which the
state might make its money, is taken
off the land befere December 20.
There are some people who never wear
dark glasses and yet they never see any
thing brigt; it’s the people who are dys
peptic and soured. Everything is out of
joint with such people. “I suffered many
years with Dyspepsia and liver troubles
but have been relieved since taking Sim
moo’s Liver Regulator. I know others
