SUMTER SHOWS A SLIGHT GAIN.
Amount Of Property Returns Ahead
of Last Year.

sumter county is richer by Just ex-
actly 81 $40 than she was at this time
last year when Tax Receiver Raiford
figured up the wealth of the natives
here, except that stored in tin cans
and buried, and announced the result
of his Iabors.
For Receiver Raiford has just COM
pleted his tax digest for this year and
given out the figures.
And the grand total shows that Sum.
ter county is worth, IN taxable prop
erty, $4,7O7, 1888, whereas last year she
was worth only the paltry sum of
81, 7O3, 318, difference of 81, $40.
Just little gain it Is true, but a
gain nevertheless.
Of the property returned for taxa
ton this year, 81, 1928. 719 is owned bv
white citizens and 1879, 169 by colored.
making total of 81, 7O7, 1888. This to-
tai would have been larger to the ex.
tent of thousands of dollars had all
taxpayers made their returns.
And the result is that Sumter, one of
the best and richest counties in the
state, shows an increase of only
$4,57O, when, had all property owners
given in their tax values the total
might have exceeded by 800, 900 the
total of last years returns.
1t was no fault of Receiver Raiford.
OF course, for he diligently urged the
people to make returns.
As an evidence of their careless
ness, Sumter county has lost 851 acres
of land. Of course she has not really
done this, but only 1894, 200 acres are
returned this year, whereas 295, O51
were on the books last year.

MEN AT SHOP GOING
BACK TO THE NORTH
Nearly All The Imported Laborers to
Return There.
WELL HOUSED AND PROTECTED.
During Their Lengthy Stay In Ameri-
cus.-A Large Amount of Repair
Work at seaboard Shops Is Being
Handled By the Old Machinists.

After rather combining residence OF
two months in quarters at the Sea-
board Air Line shops in Americus,
the machinists brought here to take
the places of the strikers are to return
north. In fact, several of them have
gone already.
A dozen or more of the newcomers
were downtown yesterday making
purchases preparatory to leaving.
Few of them, it is said, were skilled
railway maehinists, and now that the
strike has ended and the old men have
returned to work there is little need at
all for any unskilled labor.
Some twenty men made up the list
of imported talent here.
Since coming to Americas they have
occupied quarters in the shops, pre-
pared for them by the company, and
there they eat, slept and were made
comfortable, But the confinement
must have been more or less oppres-
sive to these sons of the north.
The city has maintained a guard at
the shops for several weeks past, but
there has not been any trouble, and
this expense will soon be cut off.
The regular machinists returning to
work there are finding plenty to do.
A large number of engines are there to
be repaired and much work upon the
rolling stock generally will have to be
done ere things are put in good shape.
It is reminder of ''good old days"
to see the large force at work there.
