Celebrate Fourth on Ilse of Palms.

Celebrate Fourth on Ilse of Palms.
Charleston, June 30.-Plans for a
big day on the Fourth of July are be-
ing arranged at the Isle of Palms,
Charleston's famous summer resort.
Fifteen years ago the first Fourth of
July was celebrated at this beech,
which had been converted from a
strip of sand hills into substantial
frolic place, with every natural ad-
vantage to promise it popularity and
each year since that tine has seen
it improved, the climax being recently
reached, when James Sottile of
Charleston, acquired control of the
Isle of Palms resort and the ferry line
and electric railroad connecting it
with Charleston. Formerly known as
Long Island, and, tradition has it, the
landing place of Capt. Kidd, the Isle
of Palms took its name because Of
the immense number of palm trees
growing over it's nine miles of terri
tory. In the past two years $150,O0O
has been spent improving the beach
properties until today the resort Is
one of the best in the South.
On the Fourth of July with low
tide in the morning, leaving a per-
feet beach 500 feet wide and many
miles long in prime shape for such
sport, motorcycle races are announce
ed riders of the South being invited
to enter the various events, silver
trophy championship cup and many
special prizes being offered. Only
twin cylinder machines will run. NJ.
S. Sullivan of Charleston, is manager
of the races.
The afternoorb hours on the Fourth
will be devoted to the surf which at
tains it's best form at food tide. For
five years no fatality has occurred in
the Isle of Palms surf, statement
that few resor1s are able to make.
Systematic precautions for the safety
of the bathers and an ideal, gently de-
clining bottom explain this remarka-
Bile record. There is no undertoW at
the Isle of Palms.
Concert music, dancing all day un-
til late at night, sea food dinners,
boating, fishing, grabbing, drawing
the seine, beach races and promenad-
ing on the board walk are some OF
the special features for independence
Day at the Isle of Palms. The Allan
ia city statesmen will be among the
out-of-town visitors.

Increasing Annual Surplus.

If the revenues of the District con
tinue TO exceed the appropriation de-
mands upon the same, after the iiquida-
ton of the debt due the United States on
account of special advances and the
amount TO he reimbursed for charge for
maintenance of insane, above, there
will be an annually increasing surplus to
be considered.
1T is sound principle of municipal
finance that only sufficient revenues
should be provided to meet the public
necessities, first for current expenses of
government, and second for the fnanc-
ing OF OUTLAWS projects OF permanent
Improvement. Therefore, in view OF the
facts hereinbefore presented. the ques-
ton naturally arises rs to what dispo-
sition is to be made eff surplus funds
that may accumulate.
while IN past Years Congress has re-
duced the Commissioners estimates OF
appropriations that surplus revenues
accumulate to be applied in the liqui-
daton OF Indebtedness TO the United
States for advances made during the
time Of the construction of extraordi-
nary projects OF permanent Improvement,
il is believed that iuasmuch as due pro-
vision has now been made for the llqui-
dalton OF this Indebtedness. the esti-
mates OF the Commissioners should he
allowed in fun. that better and more
adequate provision be made for current
governmental expenses Which are now
ct}rtailed for need OF appropriations on
the one hand. and for the continuation
and extension of the several projects of
/ permanent improvement on the other
Ii this he not done, then there must
be considered at once the fact OF an
accommodating surplus TO the detriment
or the public welfare and the best inter
/ ests Of the National Capital Washington
should stand forth pre-eminent las a
model city. not only To its sister cities
If the Union. but TO the cities OF the
world n should he a model city 10 the
/ ratiorS both in the perfection of Its
/ municipal administration and in its
4 physical beauty.

Revenues and Appropriations.

AT the beginning CT the fiscal year 1918
the yearly account showed 2 debit bal
ance of s3.179, 451.56 and at the close of
the year debit balance Of s., 1858, 1906
which represents the Districts total liza
biity under all appropriations TO said
date as follows: Balance owing the
United States on account of advances and
reimbursements TO be made, $3.50, $50. %;
the Districts share of appropriations in
the United States Treasury unbalanced
June 80 1913, S1,021,50o, less credit for
cash in hands of the collector of taxes
ON account of the general fund or the
District SIS, So1.i5. 1t is believed that
hy the close of the fiscal year 1919 this
deficit in revenues on account of appro-
priations will have been fully eliminated
and a surplus substituted therefor.
During the fiscal year 1913 the total
District receipts from taxes ana other
miscellaneous revenues amounted to
S1:su3 ;s..65, and this with credit on
account of lapsed and unused appro-
priations OF S1o2. 7:t6, makes d total reve-
nue. credit of ST .406. 121.65 The total pay

ing a charge of S119.o36.U9 for amount
to be reimbursed to the United states
for maintenance of patients at the Gov

nues for the year sS1o.3lo.3o
IF the special charge for maintenance
of insane for the Years 1871 to 1911 be
eliminated we have d resulting surplus
