WORK TO SOON
BEGIN ON THE
INSIDE ROUTE
COL. KiNeMAN WILL PROBABLY
CALL FOR BIDS NEXT
MONTH.
Survey Ras Been Made by Engineer
EEi conant of This City.
no Has Filed Report Of
the Work.

The following article from yester1
dav's SAVANNA. News concerning the
inland swatelN k route, will be of in
terest IN thikSaiFy;
Based upon 1 report concerning
needed improvements in the inland
water route from Savannah to Fer
nandina prepared by Col Dan c.
Kingman, United States engineer in
charge Of the Savannah district, and
Assistant Engineer Conant of Bruns-
wick, a plan for work to be done at
once on the route has been prepared
by Colonel hingman and he is now
expecting reply soon from Washing
ton.
The report has been referred TO by
the Morning. News. 1t concerns new
project which will have to receive the
approval ot congress before anything
is done uon II. ii was based upon a
survey oi the route made about a year
ago under the direction OF Mr.. Conant
and in il. Colonel kingman recon-
mends certain changes in the route
and various Improvements.
The changes are generally at points
where it was believed by following
the channel OF another creek for a
short distance a channel that would
mainta-n itself better than the present
channel y Juld be obtained, and in
some cases a short cut effected AS,
if this project is adopted by congress,
all improvements made afterward will
doubtless follow the channel provided
for in this plan, it was believed by
Colons1 Kinsman that the best route
sbe5l be selected at once.
There is, however, a small amount
still unused in the appropriation for
the inside rosie. and based upon the
survey and report sent to Washing
ton Colonel Kingman prepared a plan
for the expenditure of this money.
This he has submitted to Washington
for the approval Of the officials of the
department and he expects to be able
to advertise in November for bids for
the work, which is to be done by con
tract
This plan involves the dredging of
about 100000 cubic yards of material
SO that it will require only IA short
time to complete the work after it is
begun. There are six On seven point
along the route where dredging is To
be done as the amount at each point Is
small. They are points where there IS
not quite seven feet OF water as !.

I'M A BAD WAY
FOR FINANCES

ATLANTA, Oct 24.-Not in score
of years will state administration
have begun under such financial en-
barrassment as will be probable with
that of Governor Joseph M. Brown.
Unless some unknown sources pro-
duce considerable revenue between the
present time and June of next year.
Mr.. Brown will 90 into office facing a
practical deficit of about 100000,
maybe million dollars, in the states
revenue.
It is probable the first work the
next legislature will be called upon
to do viii be the providing 1f some
means for meeting the obligations of
the state, and owing to the constitu
tional restrictions surrounding the
levying of taxes the problem will tax
the ingenuity Of the ablest members
Of the administrations.
The last state Legislature has re-
duced the revenue Of the state nearly
a half million dollars, without, so far,
adding any to the same. Through
abolition of saloons, approximately
$250000 was lost; through the new
convict system about 100000 win
be taken or kept from the state
treasury, making a total Of about
$500 shortage in the 1909 reye
nue..
In addition to this the school APP
preparation alone has been increased
5000 000 fcr 1903 and $250.0O0 for
1909, meaning an increase in appro-
priations over and above those for
last year to the amount of the de-.
creases made by two fell swoops in the
revenue of the state
