Terrell Comity’s Dispensary. Dawson, Ga., Sept. 22—The fact that for three years, counting the present year, Terrell citizens have had no taxes to pay is at tracting much attention and inter est throughout the state, as evi- denced by the many letters which R. Christie, chairman of the hoard of county commissioners, has been receiving, asking for in formation relative to the dispensa- system and the profits from that, establishment, which explains the situation. The reason that no tax levy has been made in the county during this time is because of the fact that the profits from the dis pensary in Dawson and the two other similar establishments in Sasser and Bronwood pay all the running expenses of the county and, above these, a neat little sur plus annually. The dispensary system went into effect in Terrell county in 898, the bill creating it specify ing that dispensaries should be conducted in Dawson, Bronwood and Sasser, and that the profits arising therefrom should be divid ed equally between the county and the respective towns, thus not only going into the county treasury but also swelling the coffers of the mu nicipalities in which they are loca ted. The gradual increase of sales and profits finally made it possible for the county commissioners to dispense with the levying of taxes. The rate for the year previous, 1900, had been $5.64 on the thous and, but in 1901 the large surplus from the dispensary revenues made it not only practical but ad visable for the commissioners to declare that citizens would be re lieved from the payment of taxes. The same policy was adopted the year following and has just been recently adopted for the present year. $4,000 of the county’s money is now out at a good rate of interest. At the beginning of the year, $6,- 000 of the county’s bonds were bought in by the commissioners. In addition to these sums and af ter the county’s expenses are paid this year, it is expected that a neat balance will be on hand. The fol lowing are the profits in round numbers .from the dispensaries since their establishment: 1898, $9000; 1899, $10,500; 1900, $14,- 500; 1901, $26,750; 1902; $20,000. It is very probable, however, that this year will be the last in which no tax levy will be made in Terrell county. Chairman Chris tie, of the of board commissioners, said to your correspondent that it will no doubt be the case that a small levy will be made next year. This will be necessitated by the added expense of the recently adopted road forking system in the county.—Atlanta Journal.
