LEVY court SWINGS
THE ECONOMY AXE
Mr.. Groves Suggests Dis
miSSal of Clerks and Other
Court House Changes
M0VETOBORROW MORE
MONEY is VOTED DOWN.

The Levy Court yesterday after
noon again swung the axe of economy
and decided to dispense with the SER
vices of Roland Davis, clerk to De-
linquent Tax Collector Robert NJ
Burns. Mr.. Burns has about com
pleted the collection of 1911 taxes and
the taxes for 1912 are I'm the hands of
the city magistrates for collection.
AS soon as Mr.. Scott presented his
resolution, Mr.. Groves spoke at length
and said In part:
"The suggestion Of Mr. Scott is a
good one" said Mr.. Groves, but we
should not stop there but should go
further in the interests of economy
We all know that we have TO cut down
expenses in some manner. / would
suggest that We close the Office Of the
highway commissioner and dismiss
the clerk in that office until after the
first of July. There are four bailiffs
in this building. two upstairs and two
downstairs. | think the services of
two Of them could be dispensed with,
leaving one downstairs and one up
stairs.

Efforts made to clean the Court House,
"The janitors not only sweep and
dust, but they have TO. come in here
at nights and get down on their
knees and scrub up. Relative to
closing the Highway Commissioners
Office / think it is our duty TO look
into IL before taking any action. We
are pretty short of funds just now
but | think we will eventually solve
the problem"
Commissioner Purks said that as
chairman Of tho public building COM
mittee there are no more janitors
employed than are necessary.
Janitor Richard w. Craig came into
the court room and declared that the
janitors have had all the work they
could do and have done 1t every day
in the week.
No action was taken on the sug-
gestions made by Mr.. Groves.
Would Borrow for Roads.
Mr.. Smith said he had discovered
that the Levy Court had authority to
borrow money for good roads main
tenance. He suggested that the flu
ance committee be authorized and in
structed to borrow money from the
Farmers Bank or some other bank
for this purpose. He said that about
$4,000 would tide them over until the
last of July, and he believed the COM
mittee should borrow that sum or
the improvement OF the stone roads,
as the law would allow, and also bor-
row $11,O 900 due to Contractor Stewart
for building roads for the country,
and which he understood Mr.. Stewart
greatly needed at this time.
President Hollingsworth stated that
the finance committee already has the
matter in hand and have been making
an effort to get the money from the
bank.
"If you go to the bank with a
definite proposition" said Mr.. Smith,
"and show them definitely what the
money is to be used for. am sure
the request will not be turned down.
The finance committee should make
an effort to get It. I have no doubt
but that the Farmers Bank will loan
