LITTLE ROCK NOW
 ON 4 CASH BASIS
Mayor Finds Cheap Money State Will be $1,000,O00 in Debt When Next Legislature COnveneS in 1917.
By Clio Harper.

Little Rock, July 19.-An evidence of what can be done in providing funds has just been given in Little Rock. City Warrants had gotten as low as 65 cents when issued on long terms. The administration had managed to meet every payroll, on the 18th of each month, and no employe was ever required to take scrip for his services.
 But there was heavy warrant in debtedness for street and other pub lie improvements. The enforcement of prohibition on Jan. 1, 1916, will cause a reduction of $75,000 in the city's revenues. The future to one untrained in practical fnanciering looked gloomy. But not so to Mayor Charles E. Taylor. He had not fallen down yet, and he did not intend to do so this time.
 For several months Mayor Taylor conducted negotiations with fnanciers of the North, to save the city from embarrassment. Local banks at first would not furnish money at less than .9 per cent, plus brokerage and ex- penses. One did finally come down to 6 1-2. But that was not satisfactory and the Mayor continued his search for cheap money.
 He found it. He secured $250,0O0 from a New York house, at discount of 1-2 per cent, plus expenses, mak- ing it cost slightly more than per cent. The deal was closed and the ac- tual money is in the bank. The city is on a cash basis when the faint hearted had thought it was on the verge of bankruptcy. Every obliga- tion of the city is being paid in cash, without discount, as it falls due, and many more Improvements are con ter7lated. An actual saving of at least $20,000 a year, aside from in creased improvements and the strengthening of municipal credit, is the result of this shrewd financial deal.
 When he next Legislature convenes it will find the state in debt at least one million dollars. What will it do to relieve the situation? Will the demaGoeues prevail, or will the busi- ness men of the state take hold of the situation and save the day by refund ing the indebtedness throug a long term l, an at low rate of interest, re- vivmg the assessment and taxation laws, and curbing eXtravagant appro- priaticns? These are questions that only time will answer.
