To the Editor Of the Public Ledger:
SIN discover that through the
agency Of our wide-awake Privilege Tax
Collector and our interchangeable Senator,
Colonel DuBose, the Comptroller has
been compelled to acknowledge that he
has done Shelby and her officials great
injustice; and since he stops right there
with his explanation, and throws all the
blame on his unfortunate clerks, de-
sire to call his attention to another fea-
ture in his report in which he has com
mitted another blunder at the expense
Of Shelby. Ii is true the amount is not
so great as that exposed by Captain
Mathes but 1t serves TO show that his
report is entirely unreliable, and the ex-
pense Of its printing should be paid for
by himself and those insurance compa-
MES whose cards he has published: l
refer to the item of taxes on litigation,
collected in Shelby county for the nine
months ending June |, 1911 He credits
Shelby with the convenient sum OF 500,
when, if he will examine carefully, he
will find twenty times that much turned
over to the State during that time. Why
is it that Shelby county should thus suf-
fer, or is it possible that other counties
have been similarly misrepresented in
this State document? Our Representa-
tives will please inquire.

Sales yesterday were about 1900 bales,
the market closing a shade easier in con-
sequence of softening in New York.
To-day that market has declined lc on
all grades both for spot cotton and
future deliveries. Liverpool, however,
is strong, with sales of $4,000 bales at
previous quotations. Sellers are not
disposed, as general rule, to reduce
prices any, yet there are those believing
in quick sales and small profits who
are selling at a fraction below yester-
days prices. Buyers in some cases de-
mand &c reduction, but fail to obtain
more than &c. Sales up to noon were
$50 bales at the following quotations.
