that THE county will have to re-cS-
tablish its financial poisc by the en-
crcise of rigid economy in every de-
partnlent. The measures of re-
trenchment recently adopted by the
Court will have to be extended in
every direction.
County Clerk Jackson Smith, in
discussing the matter, stated that to
him it was little wonder that
the County was f'brokc," and that
the State was threatened with the
same condition by the first of March

all along the line. The cc.:t of main
tanning the Jail, ne said, had doubled
by reason Of the doubling of its pop
ulation by the prohibition law. The
pay of jurors, he stated has been in

county court has run out Of money,
and mlrS! stop spending it," was Mr..
Smiths concluding remark.
