tho work done by the Aikcil county dis
pcosnrics will ho soon from tho follow
ing summary of the monthly statements
of the Ad en county dispensary hoard,
made under oath for t he quarter ending

Subtracting tho stock on hand, $18,

goods, there remains $72,603.00 to he
accounted for. lint adding tho break
age ami expenses to the sale; we have
only $72,03.015, leaving an apparent do
licit of $20,090.04, which can doubtk i
he easily explained by the dis|>cnsary
hoard. (?)
In order to have a clear conception of
the meaning of these llgures they may
he compared with other expenditures of
government. It is a conservative as
sumption to take the quarter of the
year under consideration as a fair sum
pleof tho year's operations. It is the
busiest season of the farmers' vear.
with less money on hand for necessa
ries, not to speak of luxuries, Thodis'
\y try board soom to have experienced
this, for in tho June report it is an
nounced that prices were reduced in
two of the dispensaries.
The cost of operation, includingwog<
to clerks, salesmen, bottlers, breakage
etc., should amounl for the year t.>*:.'."..

many years the salary of tin- president
of the United Slates, and also of the
county expenditures of Alken, 08th
mated for 1908 at $26,435. The cost of
the goods is more than three times
as much a* the aggregate of all
taxes. State and local, collected in
the county, that liguro for 1907 be
ing given a* $127,170. Tho sales, with
lh< expenses for operation added in,
.sli<>ul<i n ach $288,465, and to meet them
would require the proceeds of 5,769
hales of cotton at $50 a hale, out of an
average county crop of 23,000 hales.
'The hoard reports the profits for the
quarter as being $14,310.77, at the rate
of {(57,242.19 for the year. Of this sum
$19,089.08 goes to the dispensary towns;

joes into the county treasury for the
benelil of the people at large in requital
of the $442,427.76 furnished by them to
conduct the industry. One other bonc
lleiary of the dispensary remains to be
mentioned. The Federal Government
- as its share $100,000, and reports
from the county, in internal revenue
and tariir taxes on the purchaser of the
goods, '(7 per cent, of it going to sup
port the army, navy and Federal pen
sion rolls,
!t is doubtful whether the six dispen
saries of Aiken county are promoting
temperance more than the great pro
hibition wave that has swept over this
and most other counties during recent
years. The saloon has been banished
from more than half of the national
domain through local option and pro
hibition enactments. The liquor traffic
has been w holly prohibited in six State s
and extensively cut shorl in thirty-four
others. In 1870 there woro only 3,500,
000 persons living in dry territory; in
1900 the number was 18,350,000; in l!M>7
il was 33,000,000. However, the Fed
eral reports show that in 1884 the con
sumption of liquors per bead of the
population was 11*J gallons, while in
1006 the consumption had risen to 22.27
gallon.-, a head. For the year ending
lane 30, I!tu7, there was 11,409,252 gal
lens of whiskey more consumed than in
the preceding year.
