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.
