South Carolina owes the Federal government $4,668,238, which represents a principal of $1,051,422 and interest of $3,616,846. This ls tho largest single debt this State owes. It will have to be paid back If a bill introduced in Congress by Representative Andrews, of Nebraska, should bo passed, for he proposes that thc State of South Carolina and other States shall return to Undo Sam $28,101,644.91 lent them In 183C, along with interest at four per cent for 86 yoars. If all the States were to pay up, the total amount due from them would be $124,000,000, which, (Representative Andrews proposes, shall bo used to pay part of the huge sum needed for the bonus.

How did South Carolina come to owe the Federal government so much money? It is due to the fact that In 1836 the Federal government had more money than it knew what to do with. After every need had been met there was a balance of almost $30,000,000, and so Congress, not knowing how otherwise to use it, deposited it in the various State treasuries. "No part of it has ever been repaid. In his annual 'message to the Congress that splendid South Carolinian, Presldont Andrew Jackson, pointed out that this disbursement was not a gift, but a deposit of the surplus moneys of the United States in the State treasuries for oafo-Weeping until they (might be wanted for tho service of the general government. He added: "The States have no moro authority to receive and uso these deposits without intending to return them than any deposit bank or any individual tempororlly charged with the safe-keeping or application of the public money would have for converting the same to their prtvato use without tho consent and against the will of the government." When Jackson wrote that he estimated that a month later there would he a balance in the national treasury of about $41,723,969, over all governmental expenditures.

What a contrast with the receipts and disbursements of the Federal government In 1981! The Federal government's receipts last year were $14,489,931,233 as against $47,691,89 8 in Jackson's last year in the Presidency. Tho 'Federal government's expenditures last year totaled $14,297,964,860 as against 032,000,000 in 1836. Four yoars after Jackson wrote, tho public dobt of tho Unltod States was only $48,565,406. Now lt ls $23,427,772,447. Then the share of the public debt of each person In the United Stat was $3.77.

Now lt ls 2d 6,75. When the Fedoral government In 1836 divided Its surplus among tho States, Prosidont Jackson said that consideration of that action had caused him "tho most anxious reflection." Woll lt did, for lt will never he paid hack. Nor ls thoro any likelihood, in view of tho stupendous expenditures of tho Fedoral government nowadays, that thoro will again occur In tho financial history of this country a situation wherein Uncle Sam will havo so much surplus money that he will consider lending It to tho States. That oconomy of expenditure which characterized tho Federal government In Its early days win never ho repeated. Tho Hird Monson ls Over.

(Pickens Sentinel.) Preliminary steps are now being taken which will lead to the biggest industrial development in the history of Pickens county within the next few years.

Wade H. Chastain, general agent for the Carolina Timber is now engaged in securing rights-of-way for a railroad to be built from Jocasseo, 20 miles above Pickens, and Just over the line in Oconee county, to the town of Pickens, and if the necessary rights-of-way can be secured within a reasonable length of time, the next step of actual construction of the railroad will be begun without delay, according to the authentic information obtained by the Sentinel. for the building of the proposed railroad have been under way for several years and aro as fully developed as can be up to the point of securing the rights-of-way and selecting the exact route, but this ls the first news of lt that has been given to the public. The road will be built by the Carolina Timber Co. as an outlet for its timber in Pickens and Oconee counties.

The Carolina Timber a member of tho strongest timber land factors in tho United States, own 64,000 acres of timber land In Pickens and Coonee counties, most of which, however, ls in Pickens county. This vast tract contains immense quantities of white pino, yellow pine, poplar and chestnut, hickory and all other timbers known to this region, and is the finest singlo tract of timber in the Southern Appalachians if not In the United Statos. it is estimated that it will take at loast twenty years to cut and move the timber now on this tract. The proposed road would run right Into tho heart of tho Carolina Timber Co. holdings, and this enormous amount of timber would be hauled out over it.

Just above this 64,000 acros ls anothor timber tract of many thousand acres, owned by another company, and this timber would also bo hauled over tho proposed road. The Carolina Timber Company has throe routes in view for the road. Present plans, according to reliablo Information, aro to build the road from Jocasseo down Whitewater and Eastaloo rivers to Plckons and connect with the Southern rnilway at or near Easloy, or batid to Walhnlln and connect with tho Hluoltldgo railway there, or build to Calhoun and connect with tho Southern at that point. While it has definitely been decided to build tho road along ono ol these routes, tho exact one has not finally been selected. No doubt the attitude ot the people the proposed ruutoB will bave much to do with the final selection of the route.

Plans for the railroad have progrossed so far that lt ls known that electricity is being considered as the motive power for it. As high authorities state that all railroads, in the United States will ultimately be electrified, it is hardly too muoh to stato that the new road will bo run'with electricity. A semi-official statement is that the timber company may develop its own power from streams ou its property, or current may be furnished by the Southern Power Company. There aro several streams in the Carolina Timber Company's territory which will develop thousands of horse-power. In this connection the Sentinel is reliably informed that the Southern Power Company wanted to string a line from Lake Toxaway through the Carolina Timber Company property and on through Pickens as early as 1910, but could not get a satisfactory agreement with the owners of Lake Toxaway dam property.

As stated before, plans for building the road have been under way for several years and are fully worked out. Everything is ready for the work to begin as soon as the necessary rights-of-way are secured and the exact route definitely laid out. The Carolina Timber Company is backed by unlimited capital and ls able to put through any project it may undertake. It has head oinc.es In Chicago, with branch offices In New York, Seattle and Portland. the war this company was of invaluable aid to the government, furnishing much forestry information which the government experts did not have, and also gave the government use of its large spruce pine tracts in Oregon, where most of the wood material for airplanes was obtained.

If Pickens should get this railroad lt would be the biggest thing that ever happened to the town, for within a comparatively short time there would be built here the largest lumber mill in this section, and tanneries, machine shops, of the timber company. Other manufacturing plants would naturally follow, and ultimately we would have a railroad across the mountains.
