Blease Miffed Because Government
Did Not Treat His Troops as He
Wished; Had other Grievances
(By Associated Press. J

Washington, July 8. The refusal
of Governor Blease of South Carolina
to allow the North Carolina and
Georgia militia to pass through his
State enroute to the Augusta en-
campment has not been the basis of
representations to the war depart
ment, it was said today, and the
officials do not believe it will be. The
troops have no federal status and the
war department has not the author
ity to order their transportation
through South Carolina. They will
go by circuitous route. Governor
Blease declared the troops should not
pass through South Carolina on ac-
count of the lack of attention paid
the South Carolina troops, and also
because it was decided not to hold
the encampment at the Isle of Pines.

CITY MANAGERS SEMI.
MONTHLY REPORT
Lakeland, Fla, July Z, 1914.
The City Commissioners,
Lakeland, Florida

Lakeland, Florida:
Gentlemen-A number of property
owners have not carried out your or
der of May 6 that they build side
walks in front of their properties.
These people were notified by me in
writing of your order shortly after
the meeting of May 6. The notice in
writing was repeated month later.
AS there is evidently no intention
on their part to carry out your or
| der, shall proceed to carry out the
intention of ordinance No. 1872, un-
less otherwise instructed by you.
Section 8 of this ordinance provides
that the work shall be done by the
city and assessed against the prop
erty. In accordance with this
shall advertise for bids for doing the
work, the bids to be presented at
your meeting on Aug. II, 1914.
2. beg to report to you the case
of an INDECENT woman named Scally,
who is domiciled in house owned
by Judge Eppes Tucker, Sr. This
woman was incapacitated by sickness
from doing work and has not paid
any rent for several months. She has
no relatives and no means of sup
port. 1t is unfair to expect Judge
Tucker to allow her to occupy his
house and lose rents thereby.
AS there was no provision made in
the city budget for fund for the
support of the INDECENT, and as the
county has no almshouse, am puz-
zled to know what to do, and !
await your instructions regarding
this matter.
3. In regard to work on streets
this year, the city treasurer tells me
that the amount expended outside
of the cost of concrete sidewalk in
tersections and alley crossings, vas
$2,004.66 The street foreman
states that $3.50 would cover the
part of this that was expended on
shaping cutters, repairing drains,
etc. About $120 was spent for miscel-
laneous supplies and about 5000
worth of horse labor of city teams
was expended. Deducting the amount
expended on cutters, etc, and adding
the amounts for supplies and city
horse hire, the total spent on clay
ing streets was about $2,075. About
mile and one-eighth of streets and
roads was clayed, making the cost
approximately $4,000 per mile.
Mr.. Davis, the street foreman, tells
me that a clay road, such as those
above referred to, will last about a
year under moderate traffic before it
has to be reclayed, but that holes
develop necessitating repairs in
about six months, or less after the
road is built. We may assume, from
the above, that the annual cost of
clay roads under moderate traffic, in
Lakeland, is about $4,000 per mile
per year.
A relatively permanent pavement,
sixteen feet wide, lasting fifteen
years or more, would cost, say, $751;
900 per mile. Annual repairs might
be assumed as averaging $50 per
mile.
To pay off thes1S,OO by the time
the road is worn out would take an
annual sinking fund of S64, interest
being compounded annually at four
