Old County Paws No Claims

To d. !. Martin, Esq, County
Supervisor, and Messrs. Jas. H.
Berry and T. l.. Mace, County
Commissioners of Marion County:
Gentleman:
In reference to auditing claims
at your March meeting, as | un-
derstand, the funds in the hands
of the County Treasurer derived
| from the taxes of 1909 are practi-
cally exhausted, and the current
bills of the County will have to
be met out of the proceeds of loans
secured by pledge of the taxes of
Marion County for 1910, and pay
able out of such taxes when col
lected. These taxes will be de-
rived from property solely in Mar
ion County, because Dillon Coun-
ty is now BODY polite and cor.
porate, and Section g of the Act
creating Dillon County provides
that the taxes on property in Dill
lon County for 1910 shall br paid
to the Treasurer of Dillon County.
Hence you can audit and order
paid out of the funds you propose
to borrow only such acc cunts =,
arc exclusively for debts of Mar
ion County as at present consti-
tutcd.
The difficulty could nave been
avoided, if Section 9 of the Act
creating Commission to adjust
the affairs of the two Counties had
conferred on the Commission the
power to adjust all Indebtedness
existing at the time the division
should have become wholly opera
tive; but such Commission under
the Act can apportion and divide
only the present and bonafde
Indebtedness IF Marion County;
that is to say, the Indebtedness
at the time of the passage of the
Act. If there had been the pro-
vision indicated you might have
borrowed money, paid all claims
as presented, and the Commission
would have apportioned the in
debtednesS between the two Coun-
ties at the proper time.
| regret to have to advise you
not to audit and order paid, out of
! the fumes you propose to borrow,
any accounts exclusively for debts
of Dillon County. They will have
to be presented to the Board of
County Commissioners of Dillon
County when that Board shall
have been organized according to
law. If you audit and order paid
any of these debts out of the funds
which you propose to borrow,
which will be funds exclusively
for Marion County, I apprehcnd
you would render yourselves and
your official bonds liable. This
will result in some hardship TO
claimants, but your Board is in
no respect responsible for the Act
by which Dillon County was Gre
ated. Yours truly,
NJ. 6. Woods.

President Emerson. Of the Atlantic
Coast Line Railroad. recently returned 20
New York from tour Of inspection over
the entire system from Washington 10
Tampa, and Is quoted as saying Of con-
ditions in Dixie:
The farmers and planters have more
money just now than they ever had be-.
fore. Not only did they get the highest
price in years for cotton, but the same Is
true Of about everything they grow. The
result is they are all making improve
ments and preparing bumper crops for
next year
Every crop was sold easily. and the
demand WAS not exceeded. IN fact, IL
was much larger than the supply This
is especially true Of Florida citrus fruits
and every sort OF vegetable. The I'M
proved transportation facilities and cheap
rates make 1t possible FOR the grower to
get his crops into the big Northern mar
ket almost as soon as though they were
grown near at hand and at only a little
advance IN freight. II Is this reason,
perhaps, which is rapidly increasing the
population of this section"
President Emerson announced that Il
was the intention OF the directors OF the
Atlantic Coast Line TO double-track the
main line OF the system from Florida to
It's Northern terminus. He said that 80
miles Of double track had been construct
ed in the year just ended and that 80
miles more are IN hand
The company has begun work replacing
the five miles OF wooden trestle across
the Peedee Santee, and Savannah rivers
with concrete. and 1t is expected that the
Improvement will be completed next
month. The Atlantic Coast Line is to
