cit will be noticed how little cash
was on hand at that time. The amount
of stock was 1890, 900 in round figures
or $225,000 more than on July 81,
1906. Of that stock about $3.50. 900
was represented by an accumulation
Of hard stock which had not been
worked off since the institution be-
gan business. This has been worked
off during my administration, and
the present stock contains hardly $780,
600 worth of any thing except new,
fresh and salablc goods. This alone,
represents a tremendous improvement
Of condition in the last two years.
"Bcsides. in the liabilities as repre-
sented in the statement February
Goth, 1904, there was over 100000 of
accounts past due. some of them as
much as six months overdue. This
condition compared to the statement
for the present day ought to be con-
vincing to any reasonable mind Of
the improvement Of the financial con-
dition Of The dispensary.
"Thc school fund is not a debt of
the dispensary, but its profit and loss
account tt is less understood than any
other feature Of the dipensary. This
article is too long to permit me to
stretch it further by adding an aXpla-
nation Of the school fund. Il will give
such an explanation later in another
artilcc."
Endorsed by Gen. Jones.
Gen. Willie Jones also gave ont the
following statement to-day:
"After reading Commissioner Ia
tum's statement, and after having
examined the balance sheet Of the
books of the institution, say without
hesitation that I regard the present
condition Of the finances Of the in
stitution as. in better shape than at
any time during the last ten years. I
was chairman Of the board from April
1st. 1896, to April 1st, 1897, and also
a member of the board by appoint
ment of Governor Hayward about six
months in 1908, and I feel that I am
thoroughly familiar with the affairs
of the dispensary."

DIsPENSARY IS SOLVENT.
Statement From Commissioner w. o.
Tatum Showing Financial Condi-
tion Of tho Dispensary.

SOHlLHlSSlollef w. ~. 1uIulu, VI tilc
State dispensary, has prepared for
the public prints statement of the
financial condition Of the State dis
pensary. The following is the state
ment as prepared by Mr.. Tatum:
"Recently number of papers, and
Mr.. J. Fraser Lyon, candidate for At
torney General, asserted that the dis
pensary was insolvent; that if it were
put in liquidation it could not pay it's
debts. At the time this statement
was made, came out in a card ask
ing suspenion of judgment and as
serting that the dispensary was per-
fectly solvent. I said I could pro-
iuce the figures to prove that the
dispensary was amply able to pay ev-
cry dollar it owed. I have the fig
ures to more than sustain my conten-
tion and will'submit them in this state
ment. It took much time and lots
of work to go through the great mass
of accounts at the State dispensary
and pre- pare condensed statement
showing exactly the condition of the
institution. I could not expect the
newspapers to publish all the figures
in their columns, but invite any cit
izen, particularly Mr.. Lyon and the
editors of the papers which questioned
the solvency of the 'lispensary, to
call at the State dispensary and ex-
anime for themselves the books and
accounts, and so vertify the statement
I have prepared. Now here are the fig
ures, condensed to the point where
any mind can grasp them and any
memory retain them:
"On June 1, 1906, the State dispen-
sary owed for whiskey, beer, etc,
total of $735, 5,996.94. Since June 1,
and up to and including July 81, 1906,
there has been paid on the above ac-
counts total of $451 ,005.61, leaving
a balance of 1894 ,SS1 .33. But of this
balance, $197,3SS CT is not yet due,
which leaves the amount due on old
accounts &S7,492 II, and the State
dispensary had on hand at the close
of business July u. cash balance
OIL T'o''lo''o' or T"'oZ"'o' more than
enough 10 pa! all accounts lhen ouc'
"However, when the new board of
directors we're restrained by order of
the dispensary investigating commit
tee from paying ola accounts or the
dispensary, instead of letting the dis
Pensary tunds lie 1dle' they discount
ed a NUMBER OF new accounts by TINS

ION july II the State dispensary
owed for whiskey, beer, supplies, etc,
$443.22o 81, though only $S7 ,492 II
or this amount, as stated above, was
due on that date. Any assertion that
the dlspensary is not solvent and
could net pay out every dollar it owes
If 1t went into liquidation seems ridi-
culous when the assets of the institu-
tlon are compared with the total of
its debts.
