Win bond issues, and more to be is
sued" A more groundless and reck-
less assertion was never made. Sum-
ter county has a bond issue OF $780,
600 outstanding. this amount having
been authorized to complete the new
court house, which cost $4,000,
and not $150,O00 as asserted by the
Times. Sumter county has no other
debt, except a loan from the sinking
fund commission, which will be re-
paid out Of this years taxes. The
county is on cash basis and there is
no need for nor intention to issue
bonds. To the contrary, the present
income of the county is sufficient for
current expenses and to provide a
sinking fund for the gradual retire
ment Of the court house bonds AS
to the county being tax-burdened, a
comparison of the tax levies Of Sum-
ter and Clarendon counties shows that
the total levy in Sumter county is just
1-2 mill greater than the total levy in
Clarendon county, and / mill of the
Sumter county levy is for repayment
Of the sinking fund loan. Hence the
probability is that next year the levy
In Sumter county will be less than
that in Clarendon. The tax levy is
az follows:
Sumter county: For State 4 1-2
mills; for county ordinary 2 s-4 mills;'
for skiing fund loan 1 mill; for con-
stitutional school mills; total IL IA
mills.
z Clarendon county: For State 1 IL
mills; for county "a mills. for
roads 1-2 mill; constitutional school
8 mills; total 10 ~ mills.
Hence the bald assertion Of the
Manning Times that Sumter county is

pool Of debt" is not borne out by the
-
