' TO THB TAXPAYERS OF BEKT FORU COUNTY. I notice during the year IUI5 the County Imd to pay out for lit - tereat U> the banks for carrying its paper $74.56. This meant that the County did not have the mon ey to pav its bills, and had to borrow from the banks. This bor rowed monev had to t>e paid from the funds belonging to the year 1916. Tliis naturally creates a shortage in the funds for 1916. If it takes the sauie amount of money to run the County in 1916 that it did in 1915, there will be a short age of two years to lake eare of out of the 1917 funds, and so on from year to year, a You may usk how this thing came about. Ten years ago the taxes were divided as follows: State 25, schools 18, County 23 2 3 per cent. Shortly after that the State took two cents from the counties, and gave to the schools, leaving the canities 21 2 3. In 1911, I think it was, the Stale1 took 2 2 3 from the counties and raised the Slate's proportion to 27 2 3. So, you see the counties aee having to get along with 4 2 3 on the one hundred dollars less than it did eight or ten years ago. Now there is no use in cursing the State; that wiil not help the County's condition any. A con dilion has been created that we have got to prepare for. What shall we dof Hetnain quiet and have our county levy increased 3c. on the one hundred dollars, or shall we find a way to settle this Uilhand keep out of debt as a county without an increase of tax ntionf 1 surest the following plan: abolish the office of Connt.v Treas urer, ketone or more banks in the County to act us Treasurer without pay (this will save approximately $1500 to $1800); do away with one of our week courts, I would sug gest February. This would save at least $350. Can ihe County gel along without this extra court? I think so. Then, if we will es tablish a Recorders Court that will have jurisdiction in all crimi nal matters, wherein the fines are not over $200 or imprisonment not over two years, with power to send convicts to the r<mds. etc Also to have jurisdiction in civil cases, wheie the amount involved does not exceed $500, or the title to land is not involved. 1 am of the opinion we can cut out another week of court, leaving four weeks of court, inost o? which would be i devoted to the trying of civil cases. Now the question is. What are we going to do about itf It is tlie opinion of those I have talked with, an I who know best our County's finances, that as mat tern now stand an extra tax is in evitable. Nobudy in the county is willing to this, no not one. The election for county officers comes ' off before the next Legislature meets. We will have to elect our county officers just as we have been doing, and they will be in ducted into office for two years. So we wiil have to put up wkh tilings hs tbey are for l9Kjk and 1918, unless we might get clear of one of the courts next year. 1 think we might have a mass meet ing in Wiuton right away, that we might consult together, ex change ideas, and give instructions to him who may represent us in the next legislature. Now. don't get it in your head tliot I am after an office. I assure there is no office in the gift of the people of Hertford County that I would accept. The County has hunored me sufficiently in the past for me to d" what I can toward imoroving her financial condition. I am opposed to any raise in our county lax rate. If any one Tcan suggest a better plan, or one as good as the one herein outlined it will be satisfactory to me. What I want is something that will bring results. Respectfully, B. F. Williams.

II. Jenkins on East Main Street. M*. C. W. Mitchell was ill Nor folk one day last week on busi ness. The unusually large crowds which have oeen auend,r(\g the Moving Picture shows every Toes day evening constitute ttie most important rcusou why the pro prietors of the Pastime Company have decided to a*i Vie us two each week. Two and three part drutnas and many comedy films will be shown on Tuesday i 'and Friday evenings of this week. There will be an entire change of program twice each week. Mr. K rnest Early of Washing ton N. C., formerly a lesidenl of Aulander, was in our town sever al dilys IhsI week. Mr. Claxton Brett of Union was ;oiie of the visitors een in our tnidsl last week. Mr. Brett was a member of the Aulander Baseball l'eam during the Ibid season and has many friends here. Kev- K. L. Gay. Field Secretary of the North Carolina Anti-Saloon League and formerly partor of the Aulander Baptist! Church, was in our city last Saturday. Brother Gay has many friends in this sec tion who are alwayuglad to wel come him. Dr. M. Bolton of Rich Square was here last Thursday on busi ness. While here he purchased a new Overland machine from the Aulander Live' Stock and Supply tkimpanv. This makes the fourth Overland Touring car that- has been sold through this agency during the past two weeks. Mr. E. G. Griffin of Woodland was in Aulander one day last week enroute to Norfolk. At the last meeting of the Worn- < ?mi's Civic League a week in April was set apart to be designated us ; clean up week. Thus, not only < every borne in Aulander will re- i ceive its annual Spring cleaning, j but the whole town will also enjoy j this distinction. Miss Marie Wynne of Union j was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. J. 4 C. Early on North Commerce 1 Street last Saturday and Sunday. J Mesdames C. W.,v Mitchell Sr. | and C. W. Mitchell Jr. were in ? Norfolk Tuesday of this week. Messrs. W. T. Minion and M. L. Ta.vloe were in Norfolk last Monday on business. The new drtfggist for \V. G. Mitchell's Pharmacy has reported f and begun work. Mr. Mitchell , has been handicapped for some ? lime owing to the fttcl that lie bus been without -the services of ? | druggist. We are glad to report ; that this pharmacy *dll r.ow be \ able to handle all prescriptions . promptly and.accurately. Nature smiled on the educational ? forces of Bertie Gouiityxin Wind- ' sor lust Friday. The day was I ideal and the crowd exceeded the / anticipations of the most optumis . tic. Aulander furnished a good , portion of this great gathering. ' Our people went over to hear the ' address of Dr. W. L. Poteut and I to give their enthusiastic support / to the Aulander children. And j we want to say that tho represen- : tativesof this school covered them- ? selves with honor in all tho con tests, whether literary or athletic, t On Thursday evening the team from Aulander defeated the Wood ville High School in a spirited de bate. Ob the same evening Au- - lander emerged victorious from the spelling match and on Fridsy - morning Miss Both Lassiter of ^ tins school won the recitation con- T lest. In the athletic events An- , lander won first place in the fifty . vard dash, second place in the 100 . yard event, first and second places . in the 220 yard dash, first place in a the pole vault, and first and so- , cond places in the bread jump. . We are glad that the County Com- a mencement is a permanent thing > and hope that the boys and girls will strive for even greater things next year. < What was to have been a Trian gular debate last Friday evening reunited tn a "dngftdl". Severn High School withdrew from the triatigle, leaving Aulander and Onle.v to fight each other in two debates. Aulander won hei-p, while Onle.v won at Woodland. Consequently neither school will send reprosenatives to Chapel Hill this year. M isx Maybelie Bradley of Tarn- i tin. FIs., has arrived in Aulander and will s|>end the summer with Mrs. J. T.
