STANDS ON RECORD.

lnasmuch as am the person who
gave out a statement of the facts i'm
regard to the money borrowed in
1911, and to which the language of
the governor was doubtless directed
when he in his message said that
Any report or correspondence to
the contrary is a malicious false
hood and was an effort to rob me of
the credit due me in securing this
loan," i beg to state that the fore
going records and correspondence
sustains the truth of my statements
which were made not to claim
credlt-because at least once before
during my administration and Gov.
Ansel's second term, the same
amount of money was borrowed for
the State at the same rate of interest
and ubon better terms in which
credit was not thought Of.
Again, the statement made by the
governor that the money was on de-
posit here drawing interest for the
State is at variance with the records
submitted. therefore deny the
statements made in the message of
the governor. They are absolutely
without foundation.
Very respectfully,
Il. II. Jennings,
State Treasurer.

We sincerely regret that every
farmer throughout the county could
not see the demonstration given at
the old Hanging Grounds Wednes-
day. 1t was clearly shown that
dynamite is to play large part in
the farming of the future. The ex-
hlbition of stump blasting was great.
Mr.. Farmer, inform yourself and
you will soon be ploughing fertile
spots where now you plough around
stumps. The best of your field il
idle so long as the stumps are there,
and you can get that good land into
cultivation at small cost if you will
but investigate.

None of the open accounts of the
town were reported in the recent
statement made by the city. What
are the open accounts? Five hun
dred dollars? Five dollars of ten
thousand dollars? No statement
that does not include everything is
worth the paper upon which it is
written.

We have heard nothing but praise
for the split-log drag by those who
experimental with this implement

money is on deposit here, it Is draw

such loans, and has it ever been

AS TO INTEREST .

capt. Ii. ii. jennings, Treasurer of
State of South Carolina, Columbia.
Dear Sir; Replying toyour writ
ten request of the 3rd, in reference
to your general account with this
omnk, beg to advise that there was
no agreement made whereby we
were to pay you interest on your
general checking account. We have
never paid interest on any of th..
States accounts, except what are
known as special interest hearing
accounts. N
Replying to your second question,
as to the understanding ~eiss6aS
have had with you since the State
has adopted the policy of requesting
bids for rates, beg to advise that we
have endeavorcd to secure for the
State the very best rates that could
be had, and it has been our pleasure
to have received several awards.
The State has never indicated,
what amount of balance would be
kept with us on an average, nor
have we ever bid on a balance basis,
as your requests for rates did not
take up this matter, and If such
proposition had been maGie by us
we felt that it would debar us from
being able to secure the business.
The proceeds of the first notes
made each year have been paid out,
as q rule, promptly for pensions.
and when the second series of notes
was made, as rule the money was
used to pay the interest on the
States debt.
We have used our very best ef-
forts every year TO serve the State to
the best of our ability.
