Aiken, July 16.-Aiken County is
out of debt and has $4,000 in the
treasury to be used for school and
county purposes. This is a very un-
usual state of affairs and is one to be
proud of.
Last week the anual settlement was
made with the Comptroller General
by Auditor Wise, and at the request
of this correspondent ne made out a
special itemized report of the coun-
tvs condition. The statement gives
TO the county a cash credit of $780,
770.96.
One item of special interest Is that
of the receipts from the dispensary,
a total Of s65,155.27 being paid into
the combined city and county funds.
The consensus of opinion in the
county is that this money should go
towards building better schools and
better roads; very few opinions being
heard in favor of a reduction Of the
taxes.

United States Circuit Court, three
firms of brokers will be required to
produce their books and tell of their

Judge Hand made his ruling when
the grand jury returned a present
ment against Walter L. Johnson, Of
the brokerage firm of Shearson,
Hammill & Co., who had declined 70
produce books or testify regarding
the accounts Of customers unless di-
rected by the court to do so. Counsel
for Johnson argued that as indict-
ments have already, been returned
against James A. Patten and others,
in connection with the alleged pool,
the grand jury had no power to issue
such subpoenas. He also claimed
that the transactions between the
broker and customers were privileg-
ed. The court held otherwise.

4 COTTON PICKER.
LONG DESIRED INVENTION Is
CLAIMED.
Machine Patented Said to Pick Ripe
Cotton without Injury to Other.

Washington. July 1s.-Patents
we're issued today to Crawford Ell
lott, the inventor of the book type
writer. on a cotton picker or harves-
ter which he has perfected as the re
suit of nearly seven years constant
effort. The basic patent granted COW
ers forty different claims. The ma
chine has been tested for two years
In the cotton fields. and with II one
man and team of mules will do the
work OF forty hand pickers. Only the
ripe cotton Is picked. and this is done
without injury TO the green cotton or
the flowers. The successful cotton
picker has at last arrived and will
enable the planters to greatly in
crease the present acreage Under cul-
tivation.
The principle OF the machine is a
double row OF bristle brushes about
one and one-half inches I'm diameter
and fourteen inches long, spinning
rapidly In such a manner that the
revolving brushes are introduced in
60 the plants close 10 the ground and
drawn up I'm a vertical line through
the plants. the brushes penetrating
the bushes from both sides of the
row. The ripe cotton adheres to the
brushes. while the rest OF the plant
Is not In any way affected. the brush
es travelling to a receptacle where
they are stripped of the cotton and
the operation Is repeated.
II has been thoroughly tested and
demonstrated that II will do the work
at a quarter OF the cost OF hand la
Dor, which means a saving of $780,
100000 a year TO the cotton growers.
The invention. which has been pur-
chased by the National Cotton Har-
vester Company of Chicago. ILL.,.
means much to the growth and ex-
pansion OF the cotton industry. and
