statement made before the ma

minister of the treasury, while pre-
senting the burget for the coming

The postal deficit was given as
one billion marks and the shortage
on account of state railways was
100000.
DR.. Wirth favored the fotation of
an internal loan and demanded that

SUBJECT FOR DEBATE

Some days ago a spirited debate
took place at the High School on this
query, ."Resolved that brother Gam.
brell is a worse boy than Barnard
Roche" We have another query to
propose. It grows out of business
transaction in this office. Col. Pat
Roche came into the office several
days ago and advertised one plug
mule for sale in our want columns
He sold it so quickly that he brought
in another plug from his farm, and
sold it on the same advertisement
making the ad do double duty. We,
therefore, suggest this query for the
next debate at the high school, Re.
solved that Col. Pat Roche owes the
Press and Banner fifty cents add
tional on plug mule advertisement.

CITY VOTES
MORE BONDS
BY A VOTE OF 153 TO 3 THE
PEOPLE OF ABBEVILLE DE.
eide TO EXTEND THE PAVED
STREETS TO ALL PARTS OF
TOWN.

Decided interest was shown by the
voters yesterday in the election held
on the paving question. There was
no contest to speak of because every
body was in favor of issuing bonds
to extend the paved streets to all
parts Of the city. But this makes it
the more remarkable that so many
turned out to vote. In the school
election some days ago only twenty.
nine votes were cast, but yesterday
one hundred and ffty-six qualified
electors went to the polls and voted
OF the bond issue. Out of this num-
Der only three voted against the
bonds.
The election was ordered to de-
eide whether or not the city would
issue $4,000 additional in bonds to
do paving on other streets. Already
applications are in from the resi-
dents of streets calling for an ex-
penditure of seventy-five thousand
dollars, and the City Council esti-
