GENERAL ASSEMBLY AT WORK.

Columbia yesterday. Oconee's three
entatives-Senator w. p. Ma
son and Representatives T.. p. Bruce
and w l.. Dalton-left Monday for
Columbia in order to be present at
the opening of the session. Senator
Mason was in The Courier Office for
brief time the latter part of last
week. and requested us to state to
the people Of Oconee for him that he
will take it as a great favor if every
citizen who feels that he has some
suggestion to make or idea to ad-
vance, for the good Of the general
public. if he will feel perfectly free
to communicate to him (Senator Ma

The General Assembly this year is
going to have it's hands full, for there
is much that will have to be done
that will call for very earnest con-
sideration and thoughtful study. No
the least Of the problems that will
have to be settled will be the natter
Of excessive taxation. The cry Is go.
ing up from every county in the State
against the abnormally high takr.; or
the past year and appealing for SON..
relief at the hands Of the legislative
body. There is delicate du.y to
perform in this matter. for certainly
IT seems that the unparalleled rise
in taxes during the pas. year are
scarcely warranted wheh the ma tier
OF efficiency Of service rendered Is
taken into consideration, or the Wis
ible results Of the large expenditures
that have been made. 1t Is we'll said
that the people do not, as a rule, OBJ
ject 10 taxation so long as they can
see, or be shown, where the expendi-
lures made give adequate results. 1t
is notable the unanimity OF the cry
from all parts Of the State during
the past few weeks as to the inabil-
ity OF the people to see where tho
excessive taxes paid have been OF
general benefit. And they have not.
But this fact Is largely due to the
period OF high costs and reckless OK
travagance. through which. happily.
we have about emerged.
The General Assembly should, we
think. give earnest heed to the cries
OF the Over-burdened taxpayers and
seek to lower the rate wherever a
lower levy is practical. But the job
Of settling these questions is no little
one. and our lawmakers should con-
slider the fact that lowering efficiency
or service, or crippling any institu-
ton OF prime Importance in the State
is false economy, even though by
such course the tax levy might be
reduced and the tax burden light
ened. We hope that our representa-
tives will give careful thought to
this matter, and that the action of
the whole body will be so conserva-
tive. yet not tainted with any de-
structiye element. that the hoped-for
relief may be given without detri-
mental effects resulting to any insti-
tuition or department Of the govern
ment.

GROWTH OF TIRE
INDUSTRY SHOWN
Manufacture Exhibits Phe-
nomenaI Increase in
Only Few Years.

When the government of the United
States was taking the manufacture
ers' census in 1905 it took notice for
the first time of the tire industry.
In the census report for that year
there appeared in the discussion of
the general subject of automobiles
about three lines of printed matter
about tires. These lines expressed
the opinion. that the manufacture of
automobile tires was in fair way
to become a real industry.
With this brief recognition from
that department Of our government
which records the rise and fall of
the tide Of American industries. both
tires and rubber disappeared from
the pages of the reports Of the man.
ufacturers' census for ten years. BY
this time-1914-the rubber industry
had become lusty young giant and
so well thought of that the bureau
Of the census brought out from it's
dusty archives figures showing the
rate of growth of the industry in
those earlier days when its slow
progress carried no indication Of the
bigness 1t was soon to attain. says
a bulletin of the United States Rub
Der Company.
First Jumped Under "Rubber.'
Prior to 1914 the figures obtained
by the bureau of the census were
Jumped under the one head of Rub
ber" Under this arrangement auto
mobile and bicycle tires took their
place with rubber boots. hot water
bottles and Jar rings as one of a mis-
celianeous lot of articles manufac-
tured from rubber. There was no
reason before that to allot to tires
a special place in Uncle Sans table
of statistics regarding manufactures
of large importance.
Because Of the fact that these early
statistics on the rubber industry show
the extreme limit which tire manu-
facture might have attained had it
monopolized instead of forming only
a fractional part of rubber produc-
tion, they have an interest to the
student of the growth Of the tire in
dustry and for that reason are given

Gets Own Place in 1914.
BY the year 1914 rubber had arrived
at a position of Importance and had
a place of its own in the census re-
ports. Rubber tires had also come
to an important position, and there
is no doubt that the recognition CIV
en- to the rubber industry was de-
pendent on the enormous increase in
