In beginning the considmtimi of certificates are in possession of the this “first step towards prohibition we may be permitted to suggest that a period of twelve days is more than ample for the preparation of reports of liquor sold in the seveial dispen saries, and that the public, twelve days after the expiration of the first What is! mouth of tho cl ' 8 F nPar .V ,aw ’ 8 opera tion, is still in ignorance of the quantity and value of the intoxi. cants sold during July. The infer mation is essential to a correct knowl edge of the actual workings of tie dispensaries, and it would be seen to be easy of collation by competent agents withiti a day or two after the expiration of each month. If Gov ernor Tillman will confer with the railroad authorities he will find that they have much more intricate re ports made with fur greater promp titude than is shown in this State liquor service. We tfud noindicatiau of Governor Tillman’s promised $500,000 of an nual n-ofits in the figures which are ' printed to-day. There is, on the of pros- contrarv, every suggestion The threat made by some of the; pective' financial failure for the politicians and the newspapers to have Charleston put iu the Black District, and give it a metropolitan police, is in the highest degree infa mous and should arouse the indig nation of every good citizen. The metropolitan police simply means that the State Legislature, ana not the city, must control its police force, practically taking from its people the right of local self gov ernment The measure would be an inexcusable piece of tyranny, and one for which there is not the least Semblance of excuse, except the ut terly contemptible of revenge. In almost every country that has a de cent form of government, every city regulates its own local and municipal aflalra, and where they do not the government is generally of the worst kind. Let the legislature attend to its own legitimate business andtht cities and towns to manage their own local affairs, which, at most, if tfbt properly scheme, In the absence of figures showing the sales at the county dispensaries for the mouth of July, we huye to base our estimates upon the ship ment of liquors to them during that mouth by the State dispensary. One of the tables printed shows that these BiijJpltes aggregated $45,000 in value. As this sum represents the original cost of the liquors with 50 per cent State profit added, we con clude that the State dispensary ex pects to realize $15,000 from these supplies costing it $30,000. There is another 50 per cent prqfit alkwed to be added to the county dispensa ries for the benefit of the counties and municipalities (say, $22,500) which would bring its retail selling value to $07,500.
