BONDSMEN IN CONFERENCE.
Treasurer Pattison's Sureties Meet to Con-
slider Plan of Settlement.

A conference Of the bondsmen Of l. N. Patti
noon, with view to making some arrangement
for the payment of the deficit of SIP, 1913
in Mr. Pattison's accounts. Of the nine
bondsmen six were present at the con-
ference-John J. Cooper, II. s. Byram,
Sample Loftin, David Nicholson. Robert Brown
ing and F. j. Van Vorhis. Mr.. Pattison stated
that he expected to realize from his assets the
full amount of the deficit and if he should sue
coed in getting control Of the tile-works he was
himself he held paper, he stated, from
which he was quite sure he could realize $780,
900, and the real estate which has been left in
his hands, alta low valuation, was worth $50, 900,
making total Of $50. 600, which would reduce
the amount of the deficit to about $32, 600. Upon
certain conditions he was confident that he
could realize much more than this sum from
his tile-works stock. He had made rather en-
couraging progress in his negotiations for getting
control Of the works, and expected to succeed.
It was understood in the conference that the
bondsmen upon whom would fall the liabilities
Of making good whatever deficiency there might
be would be N. 8. Byram, John J.
Cooper, Sample Loftin, r. s. Hill, David
Nicholson. and probably Robert Browning. Mr.
browning assured inc DOnOs1men Lnat Nc WOulQ
bear his share of the loss. The rumor which
has been in circulation for several days to the
effect that he was financially embarrassed. he
said, had arisen, he supposed. from
his taking an invoice of his stock of
goods. II have completed my invoice" he
stated, land find that for every dollar owe, /
have the value of three. have been able to pay
all bills presented to me. have done q more
prosperous business than last year. and am in
better condition financially than I was at
the same time last year." State Treas
urer Cooper told Journal reporter last
evening that the bondsmen were all very well
pleased with the result of the conference, and
thought the amount of the loss would be COM
paratively small "Mr. Pattison," he said, 'has
acted honestly so far, and believe he will come
out all right"
City Attorney Taylor was present at the con-
ference, and called attention to possible basis
Of agreement which, if adopted would give the
city its money, leaving the burden to be borne
by the bondsmen. He suggested that they
should name q trustee, one of themselves or
somebody else, to whom Mr.. Pattson's real es-
tate, tiie-works interests and other hold
ings, could be turned over. and
give their notes, upon which money
could be raised for canceling their principals in
debtedness to the city. The trustee holding the
Pattson property could then sell it for the bene-
fit of the bondsmen. They did not think the
plan feasible, and, without reaching any definite
conclusion, it was decided to hold another con-
ference to morrow, when an effort will be made
to get all the bondsmen together.

A Word in Behalf of Economy

A new assessment will soon be taken. How
much will it fall below the gross amount of our
present taxable basis? One-fourth? Has not
real estate deprecated at least onefourth in the
last ten years? And whether the new assessment
will bring it up to one-fourth or not is doubtful
Is there farm in Hartford county that the
valued separately could be justly valued for as
much as il was ten years ago? If that be so, our
County Commissioners should be very careful
in granting new roads, new bridges, and extra
expenditures in the county. Let us have at
least one year without q new road. 1t is not
only the first cost of the road but the continual
expense of repair that burdens the tax payer.
You can rest assured, Mr. Editor, the man who
wants a new road now does not pay much tax
himself.
Some think our tax collectors get too well
paid / do not think so. The way things are
tending, they will earn it all. Striking-remem-
her, before the next Presidential election, some
body will be struck. j.

WILMA FARMERS, GLIB.

The April meeting was held at the residence of
Thomas Hollingsworth. The members were all
present but one. Mr.. Hollingsworth's farm is
small, containing only about IS acres, but it is in
good state of cultivation, and the general APP
pearance gave unmistakable evidence of good
management. Thefences and buildings were in
good condition and the growing crops OF grass
and wheat looked well.
The subject of discussion at this meeting was
hardening" but what appeared to be more
interesting topic, the bogus butter question,
consumed large portion of the time, and it was
only at late hour that the subject-proper was
reached.
No new points were developed in Gardening
and the discussion was not very spirited. The
subject seemed to recall the boyhood days OF
ushered through the garden gate and told to &c
to pulling weeds, as 1t was too wet to work out
doors.
