From the Greenville News.3 rn G,& Jan. 3.-Greenville and Athens are as near duplicates as citIe-n well be. The only points of :=i4ereuce are that everything in. thens "is on a scale a shade larger n n Greenville and that Greenville a ,hade more aggressive and pro Down in the details of municipal management the resemblance con - ues. Athens' mayor receives a sal a :arg .of $1,200 a year; - the city has a pone force of ten men paid on a basis $750 ~ a month to privates. The fire departodent consists of one steamer, hose reels and hook and ladder truck. A the municipal expenses are a little S tha ours.: The city tax rate is -te&mils on an assessment of nearly ea millions of dollars, which covers ineluding running ex rest on a few railroad bonds cost of the public schools. ~ se no reason why a dispensary Greenville could hope to do as iEi business or to make as much t -as: this one in Athens, but the 4stitatidn-here gives ns a basis of cal aton~ and -estimation. TheAthens dispensary began busi aeas in October, 1891. It is now thir n-teen months old. It is conducted in toreEoom on Broad street and is pped with a long counter, shelv g a ..g one wall and a railed in at the front inclosing a desk for F=::r. The shelves are filled = jh- bottles of all sizes, each labeled its cotentG-"Fine old Gibson w""e' " -Pure North Carolina corn Uey"; 'Cgnac brandy," etc. On top of each cork is a round red c habel with "Athens dispensary" print n it. On one side of the room tlsere are piles of boxes of bottles. The dispensary does its own bot tling,. buying the liquor in-quantities. bsdll -notbing less than a pint ad no more than five gallons at a time to:any one person. The manager saya be keeps everything that can be Iied for in hid line from champagne rare cordials to plain, every United States corn liquor in white ~gus bottles at twenty-tive cents a .The business amounts, so far, to ,000 a year. The t,et profits hare been from$10,000 and $11,000 a year a thousand dollars a month it is called, - t bit does not reaeh that. Mr. John stonwho is in charge, says the net prftmay be approximately stated at ~ wenty-five eper cent., although the ~ gessroft s fifty per cent. In ote tal experience proves- that it $ costletwenty-five per cent. of the total bsnessto run it. These expens~es in -Q- ldemalaries,cost of bottles and hot tln nalyses, freight, rent, insurance and icidentals. The manager has ~to asistants and the expenses of op t4ionia$300 a-mont. ipesr Tebgestensiness h isesr - Us.ee-dorne was in October, 1891, the S-ot t was opened. Thiat month is Seiuded-in-the figures of the first year. -ro Iall I can gather the regular re cei pta ill be less- hereafter. $8,000 or $9U0 ill probably-be-the sum of the ~'pronts.hereafter,'suppoin2g the dispen 'jsaryis continued. . Athens is fairly well satisfied with bKdisenry.She shaould be better pleased than she is, for liquor licenses have never been an-important part of GlIerevenue. When the city issued -- leeises she had si bar rooms licensed $-- t25&each-$,500 a year.' Then she -.'--asdry five or six years and blind 3 tgers flourished everywhere, liquor ~ as sold. right and left by scores of ~.peple and no licenses were paid. -Fi - anelally, therefore, Athens is away ~ head on the dispensary even at $8,000 Saear~ and that is all she will get out -'of eveny the first year's business, for the law requires that the county shall re celve a proportion of the profits to be agreed on, and that proportion will probably be one-fifth. "As a money making machine," however, said Editor Reed, of the Athens Banner, who helped to draw the dispensary bill and who seems to be a strong friend of Athens' peculiar Institution, "the dispensary is a fail u&'. It was intended to be. Our pur pose was not to make money but sim ply to secure the city against possible Then, in response to que~stions as to the moral result, he said there had been rather more drunkenness under the dispensary- system than there was when the city was dry and rather -leastbhan there was when it was wet. -The police tell me there is hardly an appreciable difference between the -drunkenness and crime now and what it was when licenses were issued. Blind tigers continue to work. Some Sof them buy their liquors fromn the dis >pensary, others from outside. The dis pensary opens at sunrise and closes at sunset and is closed On all legal holi *djs and election days. It is: at night that the. tigers prowl and do their work'and from them the initiated can freely. rar as I can learn, no class of king men is protected by the dis law. The manager is forbid by law and under penalty of for ure of his bond of $2,000 to sell to drunken men, minors or students, but what does that amount to? Anybody c an hire a loose negro about the streets of a town like this to buy a pint, a quart or a gallon for him. The ne groes are great patrons of the dispensa ry. They buy very many pints of corn liquor which is bought for $1.39 a gallon and sold to them at 25 cents a pint-$2 a gallozi. They complain, however, of the quality of the liquor and seem to be against the dispensary almost to a man. Manager Johnston tells me he has a n'wmber of regular customers-steady drizakers who buy their pint every day -and take it to their rooms or offices to drink. Many country people buy their --bottles here just as they do in Green - ville and-again like Greenville folk; -in delicate deference to public feel +.a tak It up n a or into a back yard and drink it sociably and fairly each man taking a pull as his turr eomes. New let us figure out all these fact as they apply to us at home. As I have said, Athens is a bigge place and a richer place than Green ville, and does more business, han dling from 60,000 to 100,000 bales o cotton a year. It is the whiskey me tropojis for a wide stretch of country There are about 25,000 people in Clar' County and the five or six neighborinE counties are all "dry." With all these advantages the Ath ens-dispensary does a business of $57, 000 a"year. Now, can Greenville ex pect or believe that her dispensary would do more? There are no restrictions here. An; moderately sober man over twenty-on years and not a student can go to th dispensary here, put down his mone; and get what liquor he wants. Ther is no form to be filled out "with ink' and filed, as required by the Souti Carolina law-no obstacle to buyinj all the liquor a human appetite ma; demand. Then, public sentiment gen erally accepted the dispensary as a set tlement of a long standing and bitterl contested dispute which, had divide the town into warring and nearl; equal factions,-prohibition having car ried by a majority of only 13 at th last election. We know how publi feeling is in South Carolina communi ties and the natural wrath that woul follow the closing of business places the vacation of dwellings, and loss < means of livelihood by men engage in.selling liquor and kindred occups tions-for, as is proved by experieno here, when the bars are closed in small city, billiard and pool rooms an restaurants dry up rapidly. There I one billiard room in this city of 10,00 or more people. The experience < Athens likewise tells us that even in city where half, at least, of the popula tion is heartily in sympathy with th dispensary, blind tigers cannot be bar ished and continue to cut into the 14 gally protected trade. Liquor will have to bke sold higher i Greenville than present prices. Ati ens buys direct from manufacture and manufacturers' agents and pa3 cash. The State of South Carolin can buy no cheaper. The cost of ho fling, handling, freights and runnin expenses at the State's dispensary an the State's profit will have to be adde to the original cost. The people in -each town and cit can figure for.themselves by a proces of proportions, using Greenville an Athens as a basis. If Athens clears between $9,000 an $10,000 a year from her dispensary, cannot see or imagine. how Greenvil' city can expect to clear more tha froul $8,000 to $9,000. She is require by law to give half of that to the;cou1 ty. Tbakbleaves her liquor incoms from $4,000 to $4,500 a year at the ver best instead of the $10,000 she Dow re ceives from that source; and it will n< diminish her police expenses or hE share of the cost of the county court single dollar. It may be-argued that the city wi receive considerable relief by a redui tion of State taxes. The thing woul figure out very prettily. If an Inlan towri with 10,000 people does a $50,0( liquor business,. our seaport city< 60,000 people should do a $500,000 bus ness. Then thirty other counties e an average of $50,000 each would mak $1,500,000 more, and a; 20) per een profit on the $2,000,000iutul would 1. $400,000, which would-take more tha two mills from the State levy. Bt there are several things to be consic ered which are not likely to be sus gested without direct observation < the dispensary system. The Athens dispensary carries stock representing between $4,000 an $5,000. The State is going in now t buy and bottle and keg and ship t local agents stocks for about forty die pensaries, and she has a capital < $50,000 to do it with. The bottling is very considerable -item. Pint flask for corn whiskey co,st between two an three cents a piece, and to transfer barrel of liquor into half pint, pint an quart flasks represents much time an labor. I suggest this feature of this subjeel which is a new one to me. People wb are interested can figure out for thens selves how many gross of flasks an how many jugs and kegs and boa much bottling must be provided fo out of that $50,000 before any of it ea: be spent for liquor. "But th'e State's credit is capita enough." Is it? Will many lique dealers or mianufacturgjs be eager t sell $50,000 or $75,000 of their wares t the State, taking the chances of th dispensary scheme being a financis failure or of the law being declared us constitutional or invalid? Suppose distiller sells the State a bill of $10,00 and the law is knocked out in th courts? Who is he going to sue c look to for. his money? Will he tak chances on the legislature making goo his losses, remembering the experienc of Mr. Wesley in advancing money' t South Carolina and the scores of hor est claims which have been draggin; through Congress scores of years Business men consider these matters When they sell their goods they wan some tangible responsibility with th purchaser.

Suppose the distillers' I trust passes the word arouid in the trade that no liquor is to be sold t the r State of South Carolina? That c.:: be done. if it is done will the Hon -in Gary Evans introduce in the - . h r Carolina Legislature a bill reg . - all distillers and dealers who refuse :. trade with the State to appear befr'ze His Excellency the Governor and have their heads chopped off by Adjutant General Hugh Farley with the scirreter which he flashes so fearfully at annual - inspections of the State militia. I have given the facts and figures of r the dispensary business as obtained from actual experience in the most r favorable circumstances. Every man can draw his own conclusions from 3 them. They impress nieith the be r lief that the dispensary system as pro ) posed by the Evans bill wiil not work satisfactorily or profitably-that "as a i money making madhine" it will be a failure, that it will not diminish r drunkenness or disorder or promote - morality and that it will brow the - bulk ,of the liquor busint..y it the r hands of disreputable and irr,-sponsible I people. Thirty-five convictions for r illegal liquor selling have not dimin - ished the number of L'ind tigers in e Athens, and we are all familiar with r the fact that the constant conviction - and punishment in the United States I courts of persons "for carrying on the , business of a retail liquor dealer with f out license" results only in a new crop I of cases of the same kind at the next term of court. A. B. W. Talklnr. s It has been established that a public o speaker says in one hour, on an aver ,f age, what, if printed, would occupy fif R teen octavo pages. In ordinary con versation words flow from the lips quite e as rapidly as, in public speech. Sup posing, then that all the talk of one day . be estimated a equivalent to four hours' consecutive r-'e.ing, a man says a in one week what, if printed, would be . an octavo volume of three hundred and 8 twenty pages. In one year he speaks e fifty-two such volumes; and in thirty a years he would have an extensive Ii y.. brary of 1,560 volumes. It is a matter of rejoicing that the talk of society is d not thus printed and perpetuated. Few d men, if any, could pass creditably through such a severe test. It is said y that Swift, at an evening party, on one 8 occasion retired to a corner of the room d and commenced noting down the talk of the company. Being asked what he d was doing, produced the verbatim re I port ,'of the conversation which had e just taken place. Each speaker felt Ia a mentably chagrined at the superficial d and trifling character of his utterances. So, doubtless, would every right e minded man feel, if some disciple of the phonographic school were always ,with us plying his pencil whenever we t speak. But there is a recording angel r by our side. Every word is written, a though not by any visible agency. Our conversation exercises a power for good 1 or evil on the mental and moral life of . others, and no word as the vehicle of a i thought can pause in its relative eff ect. d .-The Quiver.

Use White in House Paintlug. Say what you will, my friend, in de rision of the white house, it is to me the prettiest, newest and cleanest house ever painted, says V. B. Grinnell, in house painting. Though it may be the subject of your sneers, philosophers, poets, sages and artists have dwelt q-liet content in the cottage painted white. See the white house in the dis tance, a bright gem among the trees in the valley, or standing like an emblem of purity on the hillside, making the leaves seem greener and the flowers look brighter by contrast. Look at the white house again in contrast with yonder glowing enuset, with all the t glowing colors of forest, field and sky. Neither suffer by contrast. The red and gold of the sky and all the tints of field and forest look warmer, softer and i purer as seen in contrast with the cot tage robed in white. ' As the sun goes further down and t the bright colors fade to sombre grays, in clouds with silver edges, and "dark ening shadows lie along the fields," the white cottage still stands in harmony with the scene. White is a generous helper; all colors are made brighter by its presence. How it brightens the glow of the reds and deepens and intensifies the blacks! All 1 colors and tints are enlivened by it. Then why, as in modern style, should we leave it out of every scheme of ex t rior decoration? Here in a white cot- I tage is a bay window with foliage and flowers. How they glow in contrast with the white surroundings! How bright and pure the white stands out I in contrast with the flowers and foliage! There is no inharmony here among all these colors. Now, stand here and loo<~ at a similar window .n yonder cottage painted in colors.. How the colors stiffer by contrast with Nature's b-ndiwork; t.hey b:!come dull and gross in presence of the bright flowers and verdant foliage. Not so with white: every brilliant flower and every beauti ful and wonderfully colored leaf of the f.liage plant, makes it stand out clearer and brighter. Then why banish white? Whie your colors are- fading, thereby losing the'ir beauty, white is growing whiter and brigter. While the bright green of the kaves and grass givesyour olives a bilious tinge, white is made purer and brighter. While the bright fowers by contrast turn, your reds a dirty brown, white is imnproved by their presenlce. (Tasteless- Effectual.)
