Not Bill Dixon.

There appeared in the papers a
letter from Texas to Governor Nc
Sweeney making inquiries about a
negro supposed to have fed from
this State, and the description led
Sheriff Bradham to hasten letter
to the authorities, hoping they had
captured Bill Dixon. In reply the
sheriff received a letter describing
the captured man, and two photo
graphs, giving views of the full face
and side face which are now tackled
up in the sheriff IS Office. The photo
graphs do not bear the slightest re-
semblance to Bill Dixon. He gave
his name as Jim Gates and is now be-
ing held at San Augustine, Texas.
The letter gives the following de-
scription: Twenty-six years old, 3
feet 81 inches high; has two scars
back of right hip, one deep and
plain, the other rather dim; one long
scar on forehead just above and a
little to the left of the left eye; one
scar on back of head; vaccination
scar on forearm and underside of left
arm; black negro, with short, black
hair and one scar rather dim on back
of left hand
The description is almost complete
'of Bill Dixon, but the photographs
show perfectly plain that he is not
the notorious negro so anzlous!y
wanted here.

Who Will Start the Bali!

The time is drawing near for our
representatives to begin shaping
their affairs for the coming session
of the General Assembly and one OF
the most important things to con-
slider is how to make the revenues
pay running expenses and at the
same time lower our taxes. 1t is diff
fcult to estimate the expenses OF a
county, because there is no way OF
knowing just how much it will take
to run the courts, repair and build
new bridges and many other items;
some wears these outlays are more
than others. Heretofore it has been
the custom for the representatives to
make the levy according to the pre-
vious years expense, but the result
has been that the county did not get
enough funds to meet the indebted
ness. Our information from the Su-
pervisor's Office is that there is every
prospect to pay off all the indebted
ness existing against the county and
that we may make fresh start next
wear without any debts whatever.
If this be correct we see no reason
why the levy should not be reduced.
Then if some Of the offices now run
bv fees should be put on the salary
list with the fees turned into the
treasury, the taxpayers may be able
to derive some benefit from this
source. For instance, if the income
of the office of Clerk of Court by fees
is $500 a year and the Office is put
on 81. 900 a wear salary, $500 would
be turned into the treasury, a sum
sufficient to run the Office Of Super
intendent of Education. Then If the
Sheriff's Office is required to do the
constable work for the magistrate at
the county seat there would be an
additional saving to the taxpayers
of 5000 per year, a sum sufficient to
paw the salaries of two magistrates
away from the county seat.
We throw out these hints for our
representatives and the people to
ponder over, and we think it would
be good idea for the people to give
expression to their views upon all
matters affecting the county'S inter
ests. The time to speak out is before
the Legislature convenes, and If
there could be a public meeting IN
the court house on the first Monday
in December to discuss a way and
means to better our condition, to
make our taxes less burdensome, to
make such improvements as are
needed, the representatives would go
to Columbia with an intelligent idea
of the wants Of the people. We hope
some one will think we'll enough of
this suggestion to call a public meet
ing, and should it be done, every Sec
tion of the county should be repre-
sented. This meeting should be de-
void of politics, but teeming full OF
business and every man attending,
should be there with his mind cen
tered on the various interests affect
ing the county and its taxpayers.
