SEED DISCUSSES
 TREASURY DEFICIT
SAYS ITS COMING, BUT SHOULD CAUSE NO FEAR-GRIEF OVER RoBINsoN'S AND cARMiC HAEl'S DEATHS.

State Treasurer Walter D. Seed, who is making speeches in the interest of the democratic national ticket and the Over ton good roads amendment, passed through Birmingham last night. When questioned about the much-talked of de- fcit in the state treasury, MT. Seed stated that it would not be near so big. proportionately, as has been the case in practically all other administrations.
 q will state, in regard to the deficit. that there will be one in the future, but not before December, 1909. I cannot say how soon it will come, but I consider that undue prominence has been given at this time to its condition when compared with previous years.
 "on October l we had on hand about S1 ,36O,00 which has not been exceeded on October 1 on more than three or four occasions. In fact, since '91 up to six or eight years ago. the balance on hand usu- ally ran on October from s17.0o0 to sa0o,- GOO.
 '"The same deficit then existed in a greater prOpOrtonate ueBree TUT eiCh cui . rent year. Three years from now the deficit will probably be at its maximum. but many intervening events might de- crease that amount from any figures that I might now make, and perhaps it would be best not to attempt to forecast so far in advance"
 Mir. Seed was grieved to hear of the death of Judge J. NJ. Carmichael. "In his death Alabama loses one of her purest and most upright citizens; the democratic party one of it's ablest exponents; the church and state one of their most prom inent figures. He was an ever fearless advocate for right.
 Seldom Is any state called upon to mourn the loss of two of her most cons
