Total Payments .soi3,


According to these statements, the total
receipts were S9I4, 603 80, and the total cX-
pendtures 1913, i2S 30, showing deficit of
S2S, 52i 30. This is not q serious deficiency
by any means, and at the first glance it will
doubtless seem that our city finances are in
reasonably tlourishing condition. But
figures are double-faced, and to the skilled
accountant tell a widely different tale from
that which they unfold to the unprofessional
Observer We desire, then, as we'll as We
know how, to strip the financial statement
OF the City Treasurer Of all its apparent
mystery, and to put the same figures in
shape which shall be wholly Ineligible 10
the general public.
We may remark ut the outset that in the
statement already given OF the receipts of
the city, many amounts are included which
should moi enter into II plain exhibit of cur
rent income and expenditure. They were
actually received by the Treasurer, and are
properly accounted for by him; but we wish
the year to stand on its own bottom, and
have the benefit only OF its own legitimate re-
ceipts, rs wellas Of its legitimate outlay. We
say, for instance, that the State donation for
the poor, $4,000, aad the receipts from Fire
Loan, Sl0,500 from bonds receivable, and
from six per cent. stock, do not enter into
the plain calculation that we desire to make;
nor do we take into account, on either side,
the floating debt account, or borrowed
money OF the city. On the other hand, we
do not consider the amounts paid by certifl-
Gates OF Indebtedness, city stock, coupon
bonds, miscellaneous bonds, and the like,
true payments. Eobbing Peter to pay Paul
is more convenient than safe. Striking out
such items as those mentioned, we have the
following as the true receipts OF the city for

MEETING OF the friends OF railroad cx-

vile, N. c., will be held in the courthouse
at Spartanburg, on the evening of Tuesday,
November l6, at P. NJ, for the purpose of
devising scheme for the construction of
this important railroad. All friends Of the
enterprise are invited to attend Persons
attending the meeting will be passed over
the Spartanburg and Union Railroad free Of
charge. This Asheville road is, TO our mind,
OF more importance than the Blue Ridge
scheme. 1t should cost less and do the
State more service. We hope that the meet
ing will give the project tangible shape.

Another Turn or the Screw.

Tho l.ongshOrcmcn's Protective Union AS
sociation held an extra meeting on Friday
night and adopted the following resolution:
HcSoir'd. 'fli;u no member of this Union
Shall bc allowed 10 work at storing, Or store
any co:ion. for any stcvc,iorc who Is noi Il
mcirbrr or this Union. under pain oi bcin"
fined in the sum OF ten HoilarS.
The adoption of this resolution is another
stride forward. ~ first the !on-Slloicmrn
struck for higher wages. This movement
was Il failure. because non-Union worinlrn
in abundance could be had to ,lo the work
required. The Union then determined moi
To work OH any foreign ship until stcvelorc
who had been discharged was restored to his
place. And now they socmnly resolve that
they will not work ut all under any stcvcdorc
who is not member of the Union. This is.
TO all ntcnts :nd purposes, IL deliberate at
tempt to force the employers to engage the
services of Il particular class of men.
Whether there is, or is not, Il respectable and
trustworthy stcvcdorc in tho Union, is 10 be
of no consequence. The Union men declare
that they will only work for Union steve
dorcs, and they hope TO he able 10 force the
employers 10 agree to their conditions.

lcnce threat and unreasonable claims have
characterized their action from the very be-
ginning. And while we are anxious that
the lOngsilorcmcn ana all other workmcn
should have every proper privilege, we con-
sider it no less important that the employer
should have full protection in the enjoyment
OF the right to engage whom he plcascs, and
upon the best terms he can make
The experience OF the past few days shows
clearly that the Union longshorcmen are
going from bad TO worse. Nor have thcy
reached their haltng point. II is, then, high
time that the shippers and shipping agents
should take steps to protect themselves and
those whom they represent. Fire must he
fought with fire; prescription with proscrip-
tion What the longshorcIncn have done
they are responsible for. The employers must
now offer an elective resistance or give ND
for good and all, NIL control over their own
actions and their own property. The most
simple plan is for the shippers and shipping
agents to determine not TO cmploya "Union'
longShOreman in any capacity. This will
work n cure, in the interest Of The hundreds
of steady men who are now seeking work.
II can be done if the shippers stand together
as the longslioremcn stand together. And
if any employers, high or low are so weak
rs TO act against their own interests, and The
interests of the working classes by agreeing
to what the Union demands, let them under

nifty must bear the brunt of whatever comes

THE Unionvillc Times speaks very highly
OF the management OF the Spartanburg and
Union Railroad. The road has been rebuilt
without assistance from the State or the
stockholders, and is now, with its machin-
cry, in good running order. The guarantee
OF the State is secured by first mortgage,
and arrangements will probably be made
soon to pay the interest on the bonded debt
The Times says-and we believe with per-
feet truth-that the prosperous condition of
the road is due entirely to the efforts of
President Jeter.
