A FEW FIGURES

The time is drawing very near when
the voters of Marion must settle the
question of whether or not the city
shall be bonded to build new city
building, a new market house and
new quarters for the Central fire de-
partment.
From time to time, since the move
was first made, the Mirror has en-
deavored to show the need of new
city hall and new quarters for the
Central fire department and indeed a
new market house provided the ven
ture has proven a profitable one for
the citizens. 1t has been shown that
these Improvements must be made at
some time within the near future.
But we do not believe in the voters
being permitted TO go about such a
Imomentous proposition without know
ing the facts in the case and the con-
lditions which must be encountered
No man has been found, who has
doubted that there IS need for the i'm
Iprovements. No one has been found
who has disputed that something will
coon have to be done. All the OBJ
lection which has been raised
is the question of taxation and the
.proprlety Of increasing the bonded in
ldebtedness of the city sufficiently at
this time to make the improvements
Upon this point some valuable infor-
Imation can be secured from a study OF
the financial condition of the city at
the present time and of the PROPOSE
tions as they are placed before the
people by the city council.
The books of the sinking fund
trustees of the city show that the total
bonded Indebtedness of the city now
is $54S,127. This sum includes both
general and special bonds. The gen
,eral bonded Indebtedness is $246, $40
and the special bonded Indebtedness
is 1901 ,457. This information would
be of little value to the voter without
the tax valuation of the propriety in
1.-THE city. The tax duplicate in the city
alone is 81, 100000. Considering this
amount 1t will be seen that the general
5onded Indebtedness of the city is not
at all high. In considering this II
must be remembered that the specia
bonds for special improvements, such
as sidewalks, sewers and street paw
Iings do not figure, for they do moi
affect the credit OF the city because
the property Is entirely responsible
for them. While II is true that the

Mobile, Jan. ss.--(special. Phillip
winand, a German. who formerly re-
sided in Monroe County but now a res
idert Of Florida. was on trial in the
United States Court today charged with
selling liquor without license,
brought his trial to q sudden end. The
trial consumed almost the entire after
noon, several witnesses giving testi-
mony against the defendant, who was
not represented by counsel, and who
asked each witness just one question as
to when the alleged offense was COM
mitted to which they answered in 1905
or spring Of 1906.
After all the witnesses had been ex-
amined winand was called to the stand
and asked what he had to say. The
German startled the District Attorney
and Judge when he exhibited license
for the time the offense was said to
have been committed.
The Judge reprimanded Winand for
his action in taking up the time Of the
court unnecessarily. but there was no
offense and the defendant was dis
missed.
