* A STARTLING OFFER TO MERCHANTS IN ROME AND ELSEWHERE!
We have, resolved, irrevocably te stop retailing dry goods in Rome soon. We should be most happy to se
the stock in bulk at 6q cents on the dollar of original cost-nothing for freight or other expense and
we make the o| en offer to so sell the stock, ur salespeople to be cared for to the end of their contracts
whith us. It is a good stock of most desirabl merchandise and is worth much more than we ask for it.
We are very anxious to sell out. and we snail wholesale it or retail it at prices much under values.

The Appropriations
BY THE LEGISLATORS
Schools Cut, Pensions Increas
ed, Geological Wiped Out.
' The appropriations committee
of the house yesterday completed
it* work, and this morning
Chairman Chappell will report
4he finished measure to the leg
islature. It provides for a net
reduction of .$446,200 in the
the appropriations for the next
two years and the several funds
increased and decreased are
shown in the following:
INCREASE.
Pages in the senate . $ 200
Porters in the house . 100
Pensions .... 40,000
Total .... $40,300
DECREASE.
Academy for the blind $ 2,000
State sanitarium . . 15,000
University .... 14,500
School of Technology . 2,500
• iris' Industrial School
Milledgeville . . 2,500
State Normal College for
Teachers at Athens 7_,500
Common Schools . . 400,010
Geological survey . . S,OOO
Governor’s contingent
fund 6,000
Printing fund .... 1,500
Public buildi ngs’fund . 2,500
Insurance S,OOO
Minor cuts .... 11,000
Interest , 4,500
Total . . . $485,500
SCHOOLS AND FENS IONS.
Total for schools . $1,250,025
Total for pensions . 660,500
The surprise of the day came
when the committee recommen J
ed the increase in the pension
fund, but even if this increase
should stand, the net result of
-the committee’s work will mean
a reduction of at least 1 cent | >n
hundred .dollars in the state tax
rate. Before’ the last legislature
added the extra $400,000 to the
common school fund the state
rate was 5.21, and when it be
came necessary to raise the ad
ditional fund last year the rate
was increased to 6 21, which
was the maximum fixed by the
legislature. In striking (11 the
the extra $400,000 the rate will,
therefore, go back to 5.21, and
it is not impossible that the
numerous cuts made by the
committee will reduce it still
further. That both the house
and senate, will debate the bill
as reported is c< rtain, it is very
probable that some changes will
be made, but it is indisputably
true that not less than a half a
million dollars will be cut in the
making of appropriations by the
Georgia legislature this year.—
