Atlantic seaports to be made call
ing ports for Panama-bound mail,
which means that steamers carry
ing mail from various ports to
Panama will call by this port once
a week to receive mail destined to
Panama,
This matter was taken up by the
Brunsw lex Retail Merchants and
Business Mems Association over a
year ago, and Congressman Brant-
ley was requested to look after
Brunswick's interest and have this
city made port of call if possible.
Advertisements for proposals are
now being published and the re-
quirements of the contract will
call for stops both at Brunswick
and Charleston.
Brunswick was not alone in its
efforts to land these mail steamers.
Savannah made a strong pull for
the honor and only lost out after
a hot fight.

Captain Wright calls attention
to the difficulty in enforcing the
dog tax. Many do not return their
dogs at all. There is no recourse
except to levy on the dog, and
that is hing no tax collector has
ever been known to do. The comp
troller general suggests that the
dog tax be so amended as to autho-
rize execution and levy by tax
collectors or any property of the
owner of dog who fails to return
it and pay the tax upon it.
The comptroller general, in his
capacity as Insurance commission
err, deals at length with the insur-
ance laws of the state and calls at
tention to many features in which
revision is needed. He generally
approves the recommendations
looking to revision of these laws
which have been made by the
general assembly to report on the
matter.

Tax Law Revision
Urged By Wright
Comptroller General Calls
Attention to Necessity for
Several changes

In his annual report made pub
lie yesterday, Comptroller Gener-
al w. A. Wright renews his
recommendations for revision of
the states tax laws, and calls at
tention to the necessity for several
important changes in other direc-
lions.
He takes the same stand as does
Governor Brown in his message
in regard to holding down appro-
priations until plans are made to
increase the states revenue; one
method of doing this, he suggests,
is by the enactment of an inheri-
lance tax law.
The comptroller general states
that the near beer tax should be
collected through the tax collec-
tors instead of the ordinaries, and
that asonabl g compensation
should be allowed for such collec-
ton The total amount of the
near beer tax collected in 1911
was $248,855.
He holds, too, that taxes on soft
drinks should be made returnable
and payable to the tax collectors,
instead of to the comptroller gen
eral.
The comptroller general makes
his usual appeal for a thorough
revision of the states tax system,
with a view to equalization and
getting on the tax books the large

Last evening the amateur dog rae CTS who call themselves the Mutt indoor baseball tenn. went down to Fort Davis to play the "Skyrockets" and teach them the fine points of the game
 Dear me. What a headache! The "Mutts" were outplayed at every point and given such wolloping they have not recovered.
 It's no use trying to defeat the Of ficers down there on their own ground" remarked one of the players. They do not call strikes. they refer to them as one high ball or one beer Talk about slippery bases the officers down there can run like whlrlwind. They will take two beers or striker awful jolts. then swat out a base hit rolling round the bases and arriving at the home plate like one of those schooners that pass in the night"
