All of Country Affected. New York, Aug. 15 (By the Associat ed Press).* —Gasoline cutting war that has been underway for several days in th< k mid-western and southern states where retail prices were reduced in some states, 0.6 cents a gallon, spread today to the entire Atlantic seaboard. 1/ed by the Standard Oil Co., of New Jersey, four large oil companies an nounced cuts of one to two cents a gallon in (lie tank wagon price of gasoline.

Tlie Truth of the Matter.’ Wilson Mirror. There were two men. and they were en gaged in* a heate*l argument. "It's a horse!” insisted one of them. “It's not a horse; it's ti quadruped!” cried the other. “No such thing, I tell you; it's a Jiorse!” “It's a quadruped!" And about that time they came to blows. Silly, isn’t it? But it's no sillier than till tin* arguments over the state financial situation. / So far as we are able to tell. Governor Morrison is right in his argument. So's Mr. Maxwell, although We fail to see where the latter was entitled to jump so flat-footedly upon tlie governor. There's no question bu( that a. deficit exists. Practically excry place of busi ness in Wilson is in debt. All the stores and all the other enterprises owe money. That's however, is no reason for say ing they are bankrupt. In fact, if we were to publish a statement tomorrow to the effect that a certain store in this town owed quite a lot of*money, the chances are that we would be sued in the courts. It isn’t' a question; of deficit or how much an individual or corporation owes; it's the assets thsit baek up the deficit. A SIO,OOO deficit to a man who owns and operates a fruit stand, would be a se rious proposition. But the same deficit to a concern operating on a million-dol lar basis would be a trifling matter. We are inclined to agree with the governor. There unquestionably was a deficit in the state funds at the time Mr. Maxwell made his first statement, but it was a deficit in cash, and not a deficit in revenue.
