THE establishment of the whip
ping post in this state is receiving
some attention by the Legislators
at Tallahassee, Some say that it
would save a great deal OF the ex-
pense that is now incurred for the
punishment of petty crimes, and
that it would he an ideal punish
ment for such infractiOns of the
law as wife beating, pistol toting
and petty larceny. On the other
hand it is claimed that the whip.
ping post is a relic of barbarism,
and that its punishment would fall
only upon the poor and lowly. No
person of means or influence would
ever be sent to the whipping post,
no matter how fragrant his breach
of the law might be. A point is
made to the present law against
carrying concealed weapons, which
rarely operates against a person of
prominence or influence, but only
against the poor and ignorant.

We have seen that our deficit on next
LIST of July will be $1,000, so you see we
can retire 1000 during each of the next
two years, and come out free of any in
debtedness.
We have often heard the old adage,
that figures won't lie. Well, they won't;
bm the figures must be correct to begin
with, or they will never emulate the ex-
ample of onr beloved Washington in the
hatchet affair. Now, we have done our
best to be conservative and honest in
these figures, and we believe they are not
going to disappOint us.
The special tax, We think, will main
tain on an average four months school in
addition 10 our general fund; so you see
We may confidently expect that the
smaller schools may be supplemented
three months, the better ones four
months; and each special tax district can
have high school, with five months.
A natural inquiry OH undertaking any
business enterprise is, "Will it pay?"
Does it pay to have good digestion for the
physical man? What digestion is to the
body, education is to the mind.
1t will pay who?
Mr.. Flagler's great railroad enterprise,
for people travel more when educated.
The northern landowner, for his hold
ings will be more valuable among our
intelligent people; our children and our
selves, for We shall have more agreeable
environments, and life will be in higher
sphere.
Hon. VIM. \. Sheats, our state super
intendent of education, has expressed
himself as very much pleased with our
proposed special tax school districts, the
peculiar feature being that they embrace
great territory, and possess advantages
not yet attained by any other county in
the state, being less expensive, our not
being burdened with unnecessary trustees.
So 1t would seem that we only have to
inaugurate and work ahead in faith, and
1t must follow, as the night the day, that
success will be attained.
For the board of education:
X. +. MINIS,
County superintendent.

The grand jury in session this
week did a very creditable act in
bringing to the attention of his
honor, Judge Jones, the fact that a
certain witness had come before
the jury for the purpose of giving
relevant testimony, but whose evil
dence was of no good to the state.
and it turned out that he had
simply come here in order to secure
mileage and trip to the county
seat. Of course he failed to receive
his per diem and mileage. This
should be a warning to other per-
sons who may want to play upon
the state for pleasure trip.

Great Britain wants 20 place
part of her new loan of $500, ,O00,-
900 in this country. ]. Pierpont
Morgan, who is now in Europe, has
issued circular in New York, ask
ing for subscriptions to the loan to
the amount of sl50,000,0 The
bonds are offered at 81. They bear
interest at the rate of q per cent for
two years and "a thereafter, and
cannot be redeemed until 1928.
In commenting on this loan the
Savannah News shows careful con-
sideratiOn of the subject from an
American viewpoint as follows:
1t is doubtful if there will be
rush for the bonds in this country.
1t has not been SO very long since
Great Britain placed loan of $685.
0OO, 900 here, and when the inves-
tors got their checks they found
that the British government had
deducted the income tax of 5 per
cent. Some of them at once dis
posed of their bonds. They felt
that Great Britain had acted in bad
faith because she had not said that
she would deduct the income tax
when she offered the bonds. Besides
they did not know but that the in
come tax would be increased, and
it might be as much as 10 per cent
instead of 5,las at present. And
from present indications they were
not wrong about the income tax
being increased. 1t is proposed to
make it 6 per cent.
"There does not seem to be any
justice in compelling Americans to
pay a tax to Great Britain. When
Germany placed loan in New
York she announced that her bonds
in American hands would not be
to any tax, and Russia,
when she sought a loan in our
money market gave a guarantee
that neither the bonds sold to Am
erican investors nor the income
from them.would be subjected to a
Russian tax.
"NO doubt large amount of the
British loan will be taken by our
insurance and other companies
which are seeking safe investments.
The rate of interest is of course very
low, but the security is regarded as
good as can. be had, and that is
matter carefully looked after by in
making investments of
trust funds.
at has not been so very long
since Great Britain could borrow at
a lower rate of interest than the
United States, but now United
States 2 per cents are above par
while British Consols bearing inter
est at the rate of p per cent COM
mand only 94A. Indeed, the Unit
ed States can borrow money now
at lower rate of interest than any
other nation. They have more than
s500,0OO,0O0 in gold in the treasury,
and it looks as if New York were
fast becoming, if she is not already,
the money center of the world.
