THE SINKING FUND.

Some days ago the Nashville Amer.
lean triumphantly exclaimed that dur
ing the first year OF the Patterson
administration s1.25s. SO2.So had been
passed to the sinking fund for the
retirement Of the States interest
bearing debt, and called attention to
the fact that this was a larger sum
than had ever been credited to the
sinking fund in any year. Evidently
statements like this are made for the
purpose of deceiving and to bolster
up a weak cause. The American
has easy access to the fg-
ures Of the states receipts and dis
bursements. But It did not want the
facts. The American is evidently
under the impression that abuse is
argument and misrepresentation is
fact.
Gov. Patterson became the States
chief executive on Jan. II. The first
year Of his administration expired on
Friday. During that period, according
to the books of Comptroller Dibrell, |
there passed to the sinking fund $527,-
41S.49. Not another dollar, and we
here and now challenge the American
or any organ Of the Governor to prove
the contrary. There is a difference
between the Americans fabrication
and the real facts, of $732,390.32. But
the American will not make a correc-
ton nor a retraction. It will probably
apply some more Of it's choice cpl
thets to The Herald
But this Is not all. AS a matter of
fact during the first year of Patter-
sons term only $271 ,922.05 was passed
to the sinking fund. In order to
meet bonds due in October, $685.
1904 was borrowed from the general
fund and credited to the sinking fund,
never before done in the |
history Of the State. Instead of the
sinking fund receiving more during
Patterson's first year than during any
previous year, that fund received less
han in any year since the passage of
he act creating it in 1899
The sinking fund comes from two
sources. First, ten per cent of the
reasury receipts, less the penitentiary
eceipts, for the preceding month is,
N the first of the month, passed TO
he sinking fund. On Jan. /, after
and providing for all the
tate's obligations, the net balance
in the treasury is passed
. the sinking fund.
During the year ending Jan. II,
DOT, the year preceding Patterson's
as Governor, more than =
100000 was passed to the sinking &
Ind and not one dollar Of 1t was ta- s
en- from the general fund, but every 8
snt was legitimate part Of the
mixing fund. On Jan. l, before Pat
,rson became Governor $6140O0 was g
assed to the sinking fund at on time. q
his came from the surplus for the Il
year. On Jan. 1, 1908, not 8
le dollar was passed to the credit 9
the sinking fund from the treasury O
llance. Why? Because there was q
, balance. 8

No question is ever settled until the

dates express a preference for other
candidates, as general proposition
they are reasonably sure that no votes
will be lost thereby. Therefore no
