hao, and earnestly request the co-opera-
ton Of the different counties throughout
the state to aid them in their undertaking.
Outside Of Jacksonville, Lake City is the

er with her ample hotel facilities, makes
it the most desirable location in the state
for the fair. A magnificent 70 room hotel,
which will be ready for occupancy early

other hotels and boarding houses, will fur
nish ample accommodation for all of her
visitors. The liberal hearted citizens Of
Lake City have contributed about $500

impossibility for him with his army of
5000 men to attack the revolutionists
waiting for him entrenched at Asagua,
capital Of the state of Guzeman, Blanco.
He left without firing a single shot. not
withstanding his proclamation in which
he said he would fight one against ten.
Tho moral effect produced by his retreat
Is disastrous for the government.

Orituco 60 miles from Caracas.
General Solango, with 1900 men, is
marching to the rendezvous from San
Felipe. General Mendoza, with loo men,
is bound there from Barquisimeto, and
General Matos. the leader of the revolu-
ton. accompanied by General Manages
and large forces Of revolutionists, also

cannot hold out much longer. Funds are
needed, and forced loans are being re-
sorted to. Trains on the Caracas railroad
are being held up daily by the revolution
lists.

ESTIMATES Fill Ed.
FOR GEORGIA
RIVERS
COL. RAYMOND, ENGINEER, RE.
PORTS ON STREAMS IN THIS
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
APPROPRIATIONS. =.

WASHINGTON, d. c., July 26.-IAeuk.
Col. r. r. Raymond, of the engineering
department of the war department.. f1led
his annual report today upon the Flint
river in Georgia, the Chattahoochee river
in Alabama and Georgia, on the Alabama
river and the Cossa river.
Colonel Raymond recommends that the
wofk on the Flint river be confined to the
section below Albany, connecting the nav
igable sections by completing the i'm
provements between Newton and Balm
bridge. The construction OF a new dredge
to be used on the Flint river alone At q
cost Of $4,000 is recommended.
7 The report recommends $4,000 for the
Improvement Of the river until the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1904 There Is now
available $25, 100 for the work and II Is
estimated that $4,000 viii be necessary to
complete the project
Fer the Improvement Of the Chatta-
hoochee in Georgia and Alabama the ex-
penditure OF $4,000 IS recommended for the
next fiscal year. There are available for
the work $40, 272
''There are no railroads paralleling the
river" reads the report, land the people
depend upon IL for their transportation.
Columbus, with its magnificent harbor,
is rapidly becoming one OF the principal
manufacturing centers OF the south
The reports recommend that there De
no further Improvement of the section be-
tween Geneva and Newton as railways
supply that section and the channel Is mar
row and rocky and expensive to maintain.
Below Geneva, 1t is urged, the river should
be kept free from snags and open 10
navigation.
The Alabama river according 70 the
report was too high during the year 70
permit of snag boat work and but little
was done in Improvement work II -
estimated $4,000 will be needed for work
for the next fiscal year and that Al0Sol
will be required to fully complete the
project.
For the Coosa river It is recommended
that lock No. be increased in height 50
as to furnish a channel of six feet OF
water at the head of Box shoals and that
a dam without lock be built at the pro-
posed site of lock No. 5. This. the en-
gineer states, would furnish continuous
navigation for 19l miles below Rome
Ga.
The estimate for the fiscal year calls Tor
completion of a s292.O00 dam at lock NO
5; S95, 900 for channel; Rome TO lock 4.
$50 900; building hull for LOeta. S6.OvO-a

VIRGINIA COUPLES
IN GREENSBORO
JAIL CELLS
REGISTERED AS MARRIED CoU-
PILES, BUT HUSBAND OF ONE
WOMAN FINDS THEM
AND CALLS POLICE.

GREENSBORO, N. c., July 26.-N. C..
Carter and Mrs. Mamie Jones, Of Dan
vile, Va, and N. Y. Harris of Goldsboro,
N c., and Minnie Shaw, of Danville, were
brought here under commitment Of a
magistrate at Gibsonville this evening
and placed in Jail in default Of bond for
appearance at court under criminal
charges.
Yesterday H. T. Jones, of DauviIe.
whose wife had eloped with Carter during
his absence in South Carolina as chief
lineman for the Bell Telephone company,
came here in search of her, saying he
only wanted to persuade her to go back
to her heartbroken aunt in Danville. The
couple had left.
Today he found them In Gibsonville
living at hotel as man and wife. He
also found another Danville girl, Minnie
Shaw, registered there as the wife of
Tony Harris, of Goldsboro, n. c., the four
forming a lively group of guests.
All efforts by Jones to persuade his wife
to go back to her aunt proving useless, he
had the quartette up before the magis-
trate with above result.
Harris and Carter are patent medicine
vendors, and tonight wired friends in Dan
Vile and Goldsboro to come and stand
bonds for them.
When the officers arrived here with the
four the unusual spectacle of two nattily
dressed men tied with ropes, two good
looking young women in the clutches Of
constables attracted a large crowd, and
before the Jail was reached the procession
looked like a circus. The girls were weep
ing.
When seen in fail the Shaw woman said
she ran away two weeks ago. Her father
is Edward Shawn silversmith Of Danville.
Her eyes filled with tears when she was
asked the names of her father and
mother.
Both are young. No trace Of depravity
or holiness appears in their demeanor.

TAX RATE MAY.
REMAIN THE
SAME
COMPTROLLER WRIGHT, DISAP-
POINTED AT THE DIGEST RE-
TURNS, SAYS RATE CANNOT
BE LOWERED THIS YEAR.

Contrary 70 expectations the tax rate
which is now So on the $500 viii hard
y be cut down this year, owing 70 the
decreases which have been shown in the
tax diFests received from various coun-
ties BY The comptroller general during
the past few days
Several weeks ago Il was the opinion
OF Comptroller Wright and Governor
Gambler that the increase IN tax returns
this year would amount TO more than
szooo0.000 over the returns OK last year
and on the strength Of that increase II
was their discrimination TO cut down the
rate 70 S on the sl.oo0. From present
indications * seems likely that the rate
for taxes this year viii be the same as
last year
Comptroller wright in discussing the
situation yesterday said:
Il am greatly surprised at the decrease
some OF the tax digests have shown.
an now informed by some Of the tax
receivers, in fact large number OF them,
that their digests viii also show a de-
crease II this proves 20 be true the
increase IN the returns this year viii not
amount TO S1oooo.00o. as I had thought
The only way In which can account
for the decrease is on account OF the
exceeding dry weather and the poor crop
outlook throughout the state. When the
farmers think that their crops viii not
amount to much IL Is very likely that
they will cut down their property values.
sOf course IL we co not set an Increase
Of s30,O0oOo0 Il win not be possible 10
cut down the tax rate as we had hoped
We may not be able 20 lower IT as much
as A cents, but IL Is possible that II can
be cut down some. II IL a certainty that
there viii be no increase. as the rate
last year was cuficient TO meet all the
appropriations and the appropriations
this year are the same as they were last
year"
Tax dIgests received during the past
few days show up rather badly.
Dodge county shows a decrease OF f12,-
60: Ebert q decrease Of $40; Coweta
q decrease OF SIS. 24: Glascock a de-
crease o. S1T.E7z: Epson a decrease OF
S745ST, and Piczens a decrease OF SS30.lsS-
Washington county has shown an In
crease Of s15.07s: Mitchell county shows
an increase OF SS2.255; Murray has shown
an increase Of S5.0z: Warren ar increase
Of SIS so; Hancock an increase OF So
rs: Wayne On increase OF S5o,752. and
Cherokee an increase OF S11.5o0
There are many other counties 20 be
heard from. but from tho information
which has been received II seems improb-
able that the total increase will reach
the s90.0o0O0 marx and unless that is
core the tax rate cannot be cut down

Penny Postage.
Boston Globe.


The time is not far of when letter postage
will be reduced 70 cent per ounce. bill
for penny postage was introduced. in congress
last December, and at least 1.00QCS0 business
men from every state and section Of the country
have since been urging its passage.
The mightiest and best government In the
world ought to give its citizens the cheapest
postage in the world.
The history of cheap postage has uniformly
demonstrated its economy. One cent postage
would mean an enormous increase in the
number OF letters mailed. 1t would be a boon
not only to the private citizen, but to the bus
mess interests Of the country, and especially
the big advertising houses which spend hun
dreds Of thousands Of dollars a year.
Congress was so. absorbed last winter In
PARTISAN squabbles that the one-cent postage
measure got squeezed out. It will not be so at
the next session. This reform is bound to come.
It would demonstrate its utility in a single
year.
