AUGUSTA FACES
DIG ELICIT FOR
"A CITY WORK
Finance Committee Plans Prop
erty Assessment at Full Value
and Other Propositions.

AUGUSTA, Jan. 31.-The matter of
financing the city of Augusta for the
ensuing year is giving the Mayor and
members Of the finance committee
much concern.
1t is estimated that 100000 will be
required to complete. the new city
hospitals, and there is only s250,0oO
left of the 100000 bond issue to
work on the levee, and it will be ex-
hausted before the year is over. If
the Federal Government does not as
sist Augusta in paving the levee, then
the city itself must endeavor to raise
funds to paveit. However, it is firm
ly believed that Congressman Hard
wick will procure some assistance
from the Government.
Streets are in a deplorable condi-
ton, yet the condition of the ex-
chequer is such that no paving will
be authorized in 1914 Here and there
the finance committee will do it's best
to cut expenses. Efforts will be made
to consolidate some of the numerous
positions now being held in certain
departments and save the salaries of
two or three men.
One material source of gain in the
revenue will come from the near beer
dealers, who will pay twice as much
as they did in 1918, the license having
been increased from $500 to $1,000.
There are almost 100 saloons. The
revenue last year from the near beer
source was not quite $4,000, and
this year it will be nearly 100000.
Several propositions are under dis
cussion by the finance committee.
One of them Is to reduce the rate
of assessment from s1.25 per 500 to
$100, and assess property at its full
value, as shown by the Somers sys-
tenn of real estate assessments. BY
this plan about $4,000 or $4,000
additional would be raised, and the
increase to each individual would be
small

Blind Tiger Men Use
Phantom Automobile
Mysterious Machine Whizzes Through
Cities in Night With Contraband;
Revenue Officers on Trail.

GADSDEN, ALA, Jan. 31.-An ef-
fort is being made to ascertain the
identity of the driver Of a mysterious
automobile which makes midnight
trips between Gadsden, Alabama City,
Alfalfa and Birmingham, 1t is thought
the vehicle is being used to transport
liquor which can not be shipped over
a common carrier because of the
State laws. Unable to secure liquor
from within the State because of the
laws, and finding difficulty in getting
a supply from the outside the State,
because of the Webb law passed by
the Government, blind tiger" opera
tors have been driven to desperation.
1t is thought that the automobile,
which many times has attracted the
attention of people in the three towns
and along the road leading to Bir-
mingham, is being used to haul liquor
out of the Magic City. A close watch
will be maintained to apprehend the
vehicle
