THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS, THURSDAY, JUNE 10, 1909.
GOV. SMITH TO LEAVE
A FULL TREASURY
Atlanta, Ga., The stories of
the ‘‘great deficit” in the state
treasury have been dissipated by
an investigation of the state’s fi
nances, and it appears that Gov
ernor-elect Brown, when he as
sumes office, will find the treas
! ury in better shape than it has
I been in years. Governor Smith,
! despite unusually heavy and ex
( traordinary expenses, will leave
much more money to the credit
’ of the state than was in the treas
I ury when he succeeded Govern
i or Terrell.
The records of the treasury de
partment show that, not only will
the outgoing administration leave
more money to the credit of the
state than it received from the
preceding administration, but
, that it has been confronted with
curtailed means for acquiring
cash; yet, it appears, it has paid
more to the soldiers in pensions,
more to the soldiers’ home, more
to the common schools, and more
to numerous state institutions
I than has ever been paid before
in the state’s history.
When the legislature met on
June 25, 1907, and Governor
Smith l assumed office, there was
in the treasury $375,000, in round
numbers; when the legislature
meets this month, and Governor
elect Brown assumes office, there
will be. in the treasury $475,000,
with fewer obligations by many
thousand dollars than confronted
Governor Smith. In a word, the
new governor will nave on hand
SIOO,OOO more money and many
thousands of dollars less to pay
out than did Governor Smith.
' Already this year Governor
Smith has paid to the old sol
diers in pensions $935,000, where
as up to July in 1907, when he
went in office, only $848,000 had
been paid to pensioners, and $42,-
000 was still due them.
1 It appears also that on other
fixed obligations the state, this
year up to date, has paid about
$25,000 more than had been
■ [>aid for the same period under
1 the [(receding administration. Ev
ery obligation has been met as it
has matured, and Governor-elect
Brown will find no indebtedness
hanging over, and requiring his
attention.
1 Comparing last year, 1898, with
1906, it is found that the state,
in 1908, has paid for additional
' purposes—common schools-large
ly more than was paid for the
same purposes during 1906, to
wit: 1908, the school fund, as
shown by the treasurer’s report,
was $2,206,000, as against $1,735.-
800 in 1908. These figures do not
represent the exact appropriation
for each year, but correspond, ap
proximately, to the warrants
drawn on the state treasury and
paid. .
A further comparison shows
that in 1908 the state paid out in
pension $932.0(11) where as in 1901
only $870,000 was paid out for
the/sanie purpose.
Searching further the report of
the treasurer, it is shown that in
1908, educational institutions, oth
er than the common schools, in
cluding the state agricultural col
lege at Athens, and the eleven
district agricultural schools, re
ceived $205,000 from the state,
whereas, in 1906, they received
nothing. The soldiers’ home in
1908, received $22,000, as against
$17,000 in 1906. The state sani
tarium. at Milledgeville, received
in 1908. $405,000. as against $360
000 in 1908.
The state’s revenues, it appears
was curtailed for 1908 by many
thousand dollars, as a result of
the proliibition law, which cut
off revenue to the extent of $242.
000 from liquor licenses, where
as the "near-beer license for
1908 amounted to only $17,000.

Writes About the Capital City
If you will allow me space in
’ your paper I will write a tew
I words about the capital city of
1 <>ur state. Every Georgian ought
’ in a great many respects feel
■ proud of Atlanta.
Atlanta is one of the leading
commercial cities of the South.
* She has grown from the ruins of
‘ 1864 to one of the most noted cit
ies of the United States.
1 Atlanta also affords good op
> portunities for learning, but to
' her sorrow, hundreds of her boys
’ and girls are walking the streets
1 daily practically uneducated.
Their minds are filled with the
pleasures of the world; they are
■ traveling at a rapid pace toward
the days of old age, only to look
back upon the wasted days with
1 sorrow and regret, but 10, all in
vain. It is sad to see such a
' large army of boys and girls miss
ing the golden opportunities
which their fathers and mothers
have prepared for them. I be
lieve the extravagance of time
is greater in Atlanta than any
place I ever visited. The. girls
show greater interest in educa
tion than the boys, probably it
is because there are so many
here, and they think if they mar
rv any of the boys that they
will have to attend to all the
business affairs.
Atlanta is one oi the most fash
ionable cities on earth. The large
automobiles arc continually rush
ing up and down Peachtree st.
with their occupants dressed in
the eostiliest apparel. It seems
that Atlanta is contesting with
Paris for the center of fashion.
Returning to the educational
line, 1 will have to admit that
t -ere are many boys who are tak
ing advantage of the o[>portnni
ties offered them. Besides the
numerous literary schools there
are a number of commercial
schools. 1 believe every boy
and girl would do well to tak
a course in a business school. If
there is any one desiring to at
tend a business school 1 don t be
lieve that they could go to a
better place than Atlanta.
The Southern Shorthand and
Business University is one of
the best in the city, in fact, one
of tbe best in the South. They
haw arranged a series of k■■■•
ures. conducted 'by Prof. Bryan.
Pn'f. Bryan was reared in east
Tennessee, and spent the earh
pirt of his life driving oxen and
has spent the last twenty six
Lears in the school rooms. He
was at one time ['resident of the
f Southern Female College at Dal
ton, Ga. and the Pulaski Female
1 College at Gadsden, Ala. He
gave his first lecture this niorn
l ing taking for his subject, "The
t Solar System.”
1 The Carnegie library located
here is one of the best libraries
3 in the country, and any one is
• it liberty to go there and borrow
f books, whether they be a citizen
-of Atlanta or not. Atlanta af
fords all the conveniences of
- modern times.

s
s Senator Clay on Sugar Trust
Senator Clay, in his tarifl
r speech in the senate recently,
e made some strong thrusts. He
I said:
< “In twelve years, American
i- people have paid to the sugar
i trust of $660,(XX),000, in
t addition to paying $600,000,000
s in revenue on sugar to the gov
s ernmeint.
s “Officials of the sugar trust
■ are declared to be criminals now
fl and criminals since its organiza-
tion.
- "How long,” asked Senator
- t my, “will we continue to legis-
I late for the benefit of this class
’ of criminals and against the in-
- forests of tli’e American people?”
’ ll’ the sugar trust can find a
■ defender on tliJe floor of the sen
ate. then we have reached a con
dition of affair most deplorable.’

Said recently: “When you feel
down and out, feel there is no use
living, just take your bad thoughts
with you and walk them off. Be
fore you have Walked a mile things
will look rosier. Just try it.” Have
you noticed the increase in walking
of late in every community? Many
attribute it to the comfort which Al

- CONFESSES TO ROBBING

AHanta, Ga.,—James A,lactin,
■ appeared before Judge Newmtin,
Monday morning confessing to
I robbing the Menlo, Ga.,
t fiee, on whjeli charge C. E Clyde
< ai d one Langford, '

i sentenced lo four years in the

' Martin, himself, was convicted
in 11 e United States eourt| -last
Friday on the charge of roboing'
Hie Waleska, Ga., postoffice and
sentenced to four years in the

August, adding that Clyde’ and

He throws no light upon the
■ Waleska robbery, but stoutly in-,
sists that Langford and are
: inm.ocnt.
The court listened with inter
' est to his story,, but no action
will be taken. Evidence against
him fi r Laving committed the

to the court and it is stat&Tthat
his confession will not affect the ,
sentences in either case.
