Tho recomumendation of the New berry grand jury that those countie thatt have no dispensaries sholtid no receive a portion of the dispensar prolit is no new ituestion, as It Wias (Il cussed In the Legislature at the las session. It is in sonie respects a knott. question. AL a casual glance It hook: very unr1eitsOna1tble to give to a cout1t m<(,itoy from the prolits of a conmod it, which that county refuses to handle and which has beenl made out of th( people of another county. WVe say at easual glance it, looks right that ti money should go hack to the schools o the counties which pay it. That, too is the selisli view if you live in a coun ty that pays any considerable part ( this money. it so hiappei in the dis tribut.ion of this food that sole of tli counties that paid nothing to the fum directly because they had no disp(ensat ries had the largest enlrolment. or rathl cr fell flutier behind the tii nee doll per capita and i ihevvvr-'.' re1itveil m(ort of this fund than any other eount.ies. it there is aiotlier view to take el this matter. This fid that, is bein distribulted is not. a county fund but :1 State fund. The coin Ity receives it prolit directly and the liony'V is no sent to Columbia or tirne over to ith State at all. Then those cinties that have it owe somoething to the pare1 eounties and t.he needy srhools and eliildren of thes*e poorer eounties Some counties pay it great 1i:d 0101 towards the support of the State go1 erntment, than others he(ause they havi lmore wealth aiind yet they r('eceivye no more protectoln or consideration t haln the poorer counties. The town of New herry pays miore in the th reci mills con stit.uti .'nal tax than she gets for iIhr sehool within her litiits a ld it goes t the~ ot,her sch(ols in t,he coounity. and1 yet. there is nio protest becaulse it, hait gone into the general school 'fnd of the counly and will helpt thlose t.hat, are not, as able ats tho (se ofi the town. So it is with t,. distribut,ion of tlis State fund. In other words we must, not expect, a direit returnl to us of everyt.hing we dol or iay. it is nceessary to do soinething for tle general welfare and if we do, and whel we do, we always receive the rellex ill' Ilucile. t helps the State to help ed neate tho0se children who are not able to educate thelmselves, and that is all that is being (1n0 in the preseni iplan of distributing thiIs fo l. If called upol to defend11 Or serve the State these counties would help a readily its any. This is one view of th is question that we should look at when we come to miake reoililt' n(1attion to the I.egislature. We must, look olt and beyond ourselves and consider the general welfare and remi ember that this is a State fund all not it Count.y fund, that the counties that have dispelsaries have already re eeived their share of tho prolits.
