There were higher taxes and more of
them; but DR. Thompson in his speech
denies that my explanation is sufficient
or satisfactory. Yet he admits that the
new law brings him in annually $4,000
more of license tax than the license tax
yielded previously; and he admits that

same as in 1896, in round numbers

his statements, / may mention that in my
report to the Legislature, ] had stated
that | had allowed to Mr.. Bachelor, as
q supplement to his salary, all the cor
poration fees. This did not include the
Seal Tax which belonged to the State.
And DIR. Thompson knew that fact, and
that al matters connected with these
fees were particularly within Mr..
Bachelors knowledge. Yet notwith-
standing Mr.. Batchelor was his chief
clerk for seven months, he never once
asked about these matters, but mdlffer
ent to truth, makes his false statements.
Mr.. Bachelors statements is hereto
amended. He declares that all the taxes
on Seals were paid over to Mr.. Telfair
And according to the Auditors report
Mr. Telfair turned over to the State
Treasurer during the period | was in Of

therefor.
The last two items were turned over
to the State Treasurer for the Educa
tional fund.
The other items were paid to the
treasurer for the General Fund. These
payments were made September 18th,
1895.
Here is another one of DIR. Thomp-
sons mendacious charges: He says:
Il will give you another bit of loose
ness in that office. During Captain
Cookies administration there were from
$50 to 1870 corporations chartered from
that office upon which the fees were
paid, and upon which the seal tax of
one dollar each should have been turn
ed over to the Private Secretary of the
Governor.
'One hundred and eighty or $4,000
ought to have been paid TO the Private
Secretary of the Governor on this ac-
count during Cookies administration.
His books show that not one cent was
so paid. The law gives the Secretary of
State these corporation fees, except the
seal tax. This account was balanced on
Captain Cookies books-he took all the
fees don't pretend to explain it, but
it is a fact
Instead of that being fact, it is a
falsehood.
The Seal Tax for the great seal of the
State is payable to the Governors pri-
yate secretary, who affiXes the Great
Seal in the Executive office, although the
Secretary of State is required to collect
and pay over to the private secretary,
| whose duty it Is to turn it over to the
State Treasurer.
This seal is attached not only to char
tiers of incorporation. but to land grants,
and some other official documents
collected the tax of one dollar, not only
on the $50 or 100 charters mentioned 10y

ments, the amount collected by me ag

Secretary, in number Of checks. rs

Now as to the $1S3.00 check. DIR
Thompson had the evidence thereof: for
the fact that the check was drawn was
endorsed on n certificate of deposit

turned the office over to him. One Of
the amounts | paid to him was $6,414.4O
