This practically covers, as ! see it,
the financial status of the State
which certainly Is not bad. There are
number Of changes which should be
made in our laws that would add to
the revenues Of our State and not de-
tract from the efficiency of the gov
ernnlent. There are some = others
where economy could be practiced
without injury to the public service
BY the purhcase of a half-dozen
typewriters9 and amending the law re-
.quiring all solicitors to be in the
Engrossing department, the expenses
here could be cut to $4,000. This
winter we arranged to make an effort
through our senators and representa-
tives to get the National Government
to take over the care Of the Catawba
Indians and II this succeeds 1t will re-
lieve the appropriation bill annually
Of $500. s'
AS I have been able to find 1t, the
greatest single economy that could be
effected would sbe in Public printing
Very few officials understand the ba-
sis upon which this is done. Certain
ly the Governor does not, because in
his veto message he used the follow
ing language: ! '.I disapproye OF Item

; permanent Bonnd Journals OF

the permanent bonnd Journals of
these bodies, and I venture the asser-
.tion tina the Governors Office has
cost more during the present admins
tration for public printing than did
the eight years in which Hayward and
Ansel occupied the Executive chair
A great many citizens complain of
high taxes and sometimes feel that
they are justified In so doing, and
,yetswe must remember that the peo-
pie now require more of the govern
ment than they did years ago. To IL
lustrate-many voters can remember
when managers Of elections received
no pay. while for this year they will
cost the State $45, 5,485, and justly so
because the State has no right to call
upon it's citizens to perform services
without remuneration. Many can re-
remember when Winthrop was not in
existence at all; now 1t is a magni-
cent institution educating nearly eight
hundred Of our daughters. The Uni
versity formerly accommodated about
$50 students, now it furnishes a very
superior. education to about 400. The
Citadel had a capacity of 100, now It is
enlarged until annually $50 OF our
sons can and will be accommodated
l.
gave us aid to our common schools,
and now she annually helps them TO
the tune. of $145.00O-and no money
is expended for a better cause.
1 might touch on other phases of
governmental expenditure, but have
already made this article too long.
In conclusion, Mr.. Editor, allow me
to say that I desire to return to my
fellow citizens of Union county, my
sincere thanks for the henors which
they have conferred upon me, and
while / have not accomplished all that
desire for my state, ] trust that they
will credit me- with having done all
that it was possible for me to do with
the capacities with which have been
endowed.
Very respectfully,

CONCEALED THE
:. signals YEARS
WILBUR ROBINSON KEPT EVEN
MEMBERS OF HIS OWN TEAM
FROM KNOWING HIS SILENT
SIGNALLING WITH THE PITCH.
ER-HAcKsToPPEp 20 YEARS.

There was a catcher who worked a
long time before my one caught his
signals. That was Wilbur Robinson.
He backstopped for twenty years with
out ven having an opposing player
discover what he was signalling for.
One day st. Louis was playing Balti-
more. Robinson was catching for the
orioles. Harry Kane, a st. Louis pitch
er, va lying on the bench which his
team was at bat. Kane suddenly sat
up. He said he could see Rohinson's
sign. Joe Sugden was with st. Louis.
Sugden crawled over to where Kane
had been. He could plainly see Robin
sons signs. He interpreted the sys-
tenn in a few moments and put the ST.
Louis coacher wise.
Sugden lying on the bench used a
programme for a fan. When Robin
son signaled for a fast ball Sugden
waved the programme and the man on
the coaching line yelled, come ont" to
the batter. Any time Robinson asked
for a curve Sugden lowered the fan
and the coacher yelled, mail it," to the
batter.
Robinson knew they were getting the
signs, but he could not guess how. And
the funny part of 1t was that st. Louis,
after getting Robinson's signs after
every other club he played against and
failed to get them, was beaten by Bal
timore.

ATTELL NOT
TO MEET KILBANE

Abe Attell will not get a chance to
fight Johnny Kilbane again on Labor
day. Kilbane will not fight at that
time. His manager, Jimmy Dunn. will
not let him.
Soon after the fight on the coast
when Kilbane beat Attell it was an
nounced that the former champion
would be given a return match and
that it would take place Labor day.
But Dunn says there is nothing doing.
He will not sign Kilbane to fight any
one on that date as it will require too
hard work for the champion to get
into condition. That is the weather
will be too warm for him to train.
Dunn is taking the best of care of Kill
bane but he is not hard to keep in
shape as he is a wise youngster and
does not do the things many fighters
do. But he will not permit the little
fellow to use up his strength in hot
weather, getting ready for a fight on
Labor day.
Kilbane's next big fight will prob
ably be held in Cleveland, July 4. 1t
will be with Walsh. who fought Kill
bane at Boston recently. It will take
place at the bah park and as it is
the first big fight Kilbane has had in
Cleveland since winning the title a
great crowd is expected to be on hand
to witness it.
Kitbane is not in the least worried
over the outcome. He says he fairly
beat Walsh at Boston but that the pa
pers of that place gave him all the
worst of it. But that goes with the
title and is done to boost Walsh stock.
