THE LOAN is AUTHORIZED
COUNCIL GIVES CONTROLLER Al
THORITY TO BORROW $4,000.
Another Report Submitted by the FL
nance Committee-Other Mu-
nicipal Affairs.

The Republican members of the Council
came TO the aid of Controller Dunn last
night and passed the ordinance authorizing
a temporary loan of $4,000 to pay July and
August bills in excess of the $4,000 and s40,-
600 loans made previously. The finance
committee accepted the claims of Controller
Dunn that the treasury balance of $S5 900. SO
had been expended in paying bills and $4,000
more was needed 10 pay bills. The report of
the committee recommending the passage
of the ordinance was adopted, the rules
Suspended and the ordinance passed unan-
imously.
The report is as follows:
in connection with the report made
Sept 2, 1901, on General Ordinance No. 81,
and supplementary thereto, your commit
tee submits the following:
we find the discrepancy noted in former
reports referred TO herein is chargeable to
to show in his communication of Aug. 81
the expenditure of the treasury balance OF
S35 800. So. In explanation of the same the
controller writes as follows:
q" After careful reading Of your report OF
Sept. 2, L would say that i think the dis
crepancy between your estimates OF the
amount of money now needed and my own
statement of Sept lies in your including
the treasury balance of $50 .63, which was
OF Aug. and not an apparent balance OF
Aug. 81. and not including the excess Of
June and July bills, which had been paid
and had absorbed that balance. Ny esti-
mates were based on the expenditures for
the same months OF 1900 and the reason
that they were too low was that the money
paid out for June and July bills of 1901 was
over $4,000 in excess of that for the same
months of 1900, in addition to the bills not
paid for lack OF funds. Taking this into
consideration, will make our estimates
practically the same
Ito arrive at the correct amount required
at this time to pay the citys bills, we IND
that fl is necessary TO take the controller 8
statement made to you July 10 instead or
his statement Of Aug. 8, which Is In error
and therefore misleading. The statement
of July Is shows available cash balance
on that day OF $35, 71252

Notice, Tax Payers.

Property owners are reminded
that real estate is to be returned
this year together with personal
property. For some time past
there has been considerable dissatls-
faction and complaint among the
land owners concerning the number
of acres upon which they pay taxes.
It is claimed by some that they have
been paying taxes upon a greater
number of acres than they really
own. To avoid doing this for the
next four years it is best to make out
q memorandum of the actual number
of acres and your other worldly pos
sessions before leaving home to meet
the Auditor, so that there will be no
mistake in the future. The Auditor
has often been blamed by the tax
payers, who really have no one 10
blame but themselves.

A msjority of the court of inquiry
has decided against Admiral schley.
The majority report is signed by
Admirals Benham and Ramsey, two
Naval officers who have heretofore
been comparatively unknown outside
of official circles, and characterizes
Schley's conduct "as vacillatiDg, dila-
tory and lacking in enterprise" but
praises his pursonal bravery. The
merority report is signed by Admiral
George Dewey, who is recognized
as the foremost naval officer Of the
Republic" and entirely disagrees
with the conclusions Of the other re-
port except as to the personal---very.
of Schley, Dewey sustains the con-
duct of Schley in every instance and
but echoes popular verdict, when he
says, "Scbley was effective and was
the senior officer in absolute COM
mand. and is entitled to the credit
due for the glorious victory which re-
suited by the total destruction of the
Spanish ships" while the decision
of the devided court is practically
against Schley public opinion is
largely in his favor and the friends
of scbley are restless and are not
disposed to allow the finding OF the
court stand without q vigorous
protest. The case will in all proba-
bility undergo both Congressional
and civil investigation.

Progressive Lexington.

As is we'll known to the readers OF
the Dispatch, we have recently made
a trip Of the county, during which
we visited every section and it was
with pleasure that We noticed the
many evidences of improvement OF
the farms, the stock and cattle,
the homes and business Of our peo-
pie, to be seen in every community
and in every neigbborhood.
Now, for the past several week swe
have been at home thinking OF what
we saw and comparing the condition
snd progress of Lexington c. 81.
with those of the other sections and
We have come to the conclusion that
as great has been the progress of
other places none can surpsss that OF
this place. OF course. We who re-
side here, and never 60 away cannot
be ,in to appreciate or realize the
wonderful and almost marvellous
strides Lexington has made within
the last decade along the road Of
development and improvement
Houses have been built in all direc-
tions, business enterprises have
sprung up here and there. Our peo
pie take more interest in the adorn
ment of their homes and the volume
of business hiss been greatly increased
It is remarkable but yet it is true,
that Lexington merchants are draw
ing business from every section Of
the county. 1t is common every
day occurrence to see wagons from
the Fork, from the sand fats, Hollow
creek, "Switzer Neck" and all sec-
tions of the county, come to town
laden with cotton and other farm
produce and leave with supplies and
other commodities purchased. 1t
has been demonstrated by actual ex-
pertinent that Lexington is one of
the best cotton markets in the State,
the tip top price always being paid
for the staple. Our streets are be-
ginning to assume a city like ap.
pearance by the numerous presence
of home folk and strangers on our
streets trsnsacting business of va
rious kinds, and our merchants seem
to be enjoying fair and remunera-
tive trade. Ali these things are
evidences of prosperity and progress
and are very gratifying shadows" of
coming events when Lexington will
completely leave the old worn on
ruts witch have until recent years
chained her to the past and strike
out into newer fields of industrial
enterprise and business activity
There is certainly q great future
awaiting her if her people will only
seize the opportunity presented and
work out for themselves the destiny
the fates decreed for her. This, we
are glad to remark, they are now do
ing and if continued with renewed
energy, enterprise and perseverance,,
Lexington will SOON be a live, pro-
gressivs and growing inland city OF
no small dimensions.
