Archaic System ModeInized.
Prior to the adoption of the budget
Ohio's fiscal system had grown arch
aic. Legislative appropriations were
made to the departments in lump
sums or in the form of granting all re-
ceipts and balances, some of the de-
partments being maintained by fees
from interests regulated by them. OF
the departments having receipts of
their own, many had their own bank
deposits and checking accounts, and
their funds never passed through the
state treasury or through the hands of
the state auditor.
Other departments Jared we'll or ill

lack of it, of the representative who
pleaded for funds before the finance
committee.

this was changed. The state treasury
now is the depository of all the re-
ceipts of departments and funds are
paid out in specific sums, for specific
purposes within specific departments
as appropriated by the legislature.

The budget is then submitted to the

department heads. The budget as fl

TO INVESTIGATE ACCIDENT.
To Determine Liability for Part OF
Bridge that Was Lost.

At the last meeting of the Board
of County Commissioners a communi-
cation relative to the cause of loss
of span of the Charlotte harbor
bridge was received from e. " Camp.
According TO Engineer Camp, "the
collapse of the false work was due
to the failure of the contractor to
properly build and brace the temper
airy work necessary to support the
bridge during construction" and
that the loss caused by this failure
will amount to several hundred dol
lars, but further investigation will be
necessary to determine the amount.
This probably caused delay in con-
struction of about week"
Commissioners Written and Cocker
were appointed committee to inves-
tigate the loss and determine the liza
bility therefor.

Golf Expert Says Punta Gorda Course
Equal to Amy i'm Florida and
Superior to Bellair.

Punta Gorda's golf course was
given worthwhile boost last week
when Mr.. Thomas, one of the trus-
tees of the famous Ardsley course at
at New York, was a visitor to Punta
Gorda. Mr.. Thomas Is an old golf
f1end, the winner this year of several
prizes, and well qualified as a judge
of what is a good and poor course,
consequently his praise of the Punta
Gorda course is the more fiattering.
While here Mr.. Thomas visited and
inspected the Punta Gorda course
and was very enthusiastic over its
possibilities. He said that he con-
sidered it equal to any course in
Florida and ahead of the famous
Bellair course, which has elected
praise of the best golf players in
America.
Mr.. Thomas said he thought that
the Punta Gorda Country Club was
indeed fortunate in having had Mr..
Wilson undertake the laying out of
the course and was amazed at the
amount of work done, considering
the small outlay. He also said that
he considered the course a great asset
in building up the town and commun-
ity and urged completion of the work
at once. He will return to Punta
Gorda in January for a longer stay.

upon petition of majority of the
property owner residents of that dis
trict which lies between the river

held on Tuesday. January, %. The

tween New Prospect and Woodrow,

tition calls for hard road and the
small bridges that may be required.
from point on the northeast bank of
the Caloosahatchee river to the De-
Soto county line south of Acline.
This action on the part of the Lee
county commissioners seemS to make
almost certain the immediate con-
struction of Lee countys part of the
short-route road between Punta Cor
da and Fort Myers, for advices from
reliable sources in Fort Myers are
to the effect that while there is con-
siderable and resourceful opposition
to the project, the progressive ele-
ment in Fort Myers and in the dis
trict that it is proposed to bond is
heartily in favor of construction of
the road and there is little chance of
the election not carrying in favor of
bonds.

contract for opening and grading the

though it occurred on October 18th.
1t came in copy of the Michigan
Churchman sent by Mrs. Hall to Mrs.

there, the funeral services being held
in Saint Johns Church. He was rs
years old; leaves wife and one
daughter to mourn his loss.
DR.. Hall served the Episcopal
church here about rs years ago, and
by his faithful and unwearying de-

towards the building up of the
church and placing it on a firm foun-
dalton. He is affectionately remem-
bered by those members wi,o are yet
living. Last winter, he came here
and remained a short while and was
warmly greeted by many of his old
friends. Previous to his pastoral ser

Church at Leesburg, Fla, where he
did splendid work and made many
friends. On finishing his work here,
he went to ssimmee and
did equally as good work there.
In him, a good man has gone, but

COUNCIL MEETS.
Petition Asks that All of City Dock
be Retained,

The Town Council held its regular
monthly meeting Tuesday night, this
being the last meeting of the ole
council and time for organization Of
the new body, but as there was but
a bare quorum of the new council
present after the old body adjourned
sine die it was decided to defer or
ganization of the new council until
Monday night of next week.
Among the few matters of interest
that came up for discussion was the
question as to the amount of license
shows should be made to pay, and
discussion of this subject at times
waxed warm, every member seeming
to have an idea just a little at vari-
ance with that of any other. After
discussing the matter at length and in
detail seemingly in disgust, every
one gave il up for the time being
and decided to let the old ordinance,
which is rather ambiguous, remain
in force.
petition signed by about $50 cit
liens and tourists asking the council
TO retain the city dock to its full
length was received but was not act
ed upon. 1t seems that there is
strong sentiment favoring mainten-
ance of the dock to its fun length
many claiming that most of the fish
ing is done past the point to when
II has been decided to rebuild the
dock. and many look upon it as one
of the towns chief attractions 10
tourists and visitors. While 1t seems
that if is not the councils intention
tn have the outer end of the dock
torn away, the town is not financially
able to make repairs other than 10
the extent contracted for, but 1t was
suggested that if those signing the
netltion were anxious to have the
outer portion of the dock repaired
and maintained if they would inter
est themselves in raising the neces-
sarv funds the council would coop
crate in maintaining the dock to the
