Inasmuch us Governor Tillman
bos refused !© give out the figures of
his first month’s statement of the
Slate liquor dealing which would af
ford the people an idea of what the
enterprise is likely to do for the
State The Journal has undertaken
a compilation of estimated figures
which will afford a pretty fair idea
of what business the Dispeusary did
up to the first of August.
Taking the list of Dispensaries es
tablished up to that date, mid adding
five days to the date of the shipment
of the stock from the State Dispen
sary to obtain the approximate date
of their opening, deducting Sundays
from the calender and estimating the
number of days they each operated at
forty dollars per day, the result is as

As fort;
estimate for the average sales of the
County Dispensaries, estimated by
their reports of actual sales for the
first few days, and up to the time
when Governor Tillman piobibited
them from giving out further infor
mation, the figures given above may
be token as a perfectly Mr basis for
future estimates on the iucreasiug
number of Dispensaries and the in
creased cost, for they operate on
parellel line. Dividing the total
above by two in order to get the 100
per cent, profit claimed by the State,
and it is found that $0,425.00 repre
tents the firat montho profit from the
.State monopoly of liquor. Now
multiply that by twelve audit shows
A total of $113,100 for the year.
From this must be deducted the ex
pense of the busiuess, us the above
represents the total gross profit.
Taking Governor Tillman’s own
estimate of the cost of his constabul
ary at $160 per day, the cost for a
ytgcttflP bet found to be $46,050;
twenty-eight county Dispensers at
$1,000 will be $28,000; the same
number of olerks at $600 per year
^ill make $16,700. Estimating the
rent of the county Dispensaries at
$25 per month, the total for this item
will be $8,400. Turning to his
tatement it is found that the State
Dispensary shows a salary lift of $3,
413 per mouth or for the twelye
months $40,990; insurance, which
may be taken for the year, $784;
United States revenue $860. Grand
total, $142,764. It will be observed
that this estimate only includes the
main item of expense and ignores
freight, fuel, drayage, stationery and
printing, which must add very ma
terially to the cost.
In case any one wishes to extend
the calculation the figures for these
four items are given below as

What Leading Tapers Think of
Financial Aflairs.
Philadelphia Times: Four mil
lions in gold arrived at'Now York
yesterday. There is scarcely enough
to go aronud, but thei'o is more on
the way and we may be happy yet.
Cleveland leader: Deposit yuur
currency in'the bai.ks. It is ahso-.
lately safe there, and the soomr Un
people make up their minds to place
it there the sooner this currency
famine will be over.
New York Advertiser: A steadi
ness is noticed in the London mar
ket. This foreshadows a steadiness
in Wall street and means that ixm-
don will soon be reaching out after
American securities.
Hartford Courant: Cold is com
ing over by the millions from abroad
and new currency is coming out at
the rate of six million and a quarter
a day. The great American public
have their hats out aud are ready for
it-
Nashville American: There are
good ti mes com mg. The great ileecy
Southern stapio will bring into the
United States during the season be
ginning September 1 $30(),000,0tK;
in gold. When the money rolls in
how can stringency rule the land?
St. Louis Globe: Gold is llow-
iug into the country in steady streams,
the gold reserve in the Treasury is
expanding, the national bank circu
lation is increasing, aud the premium
on currency is close to the vanishing
point. Now let Congress doits duty
and all the financial clouds will soon
roll by.
Minneapolis Tribune: The skies
are rapidly clearing and one of these
fine mornings the country will wake
up and find that it has just us many
things to buy, just as many things
to sell, just as much work to be
done, and just as much money to
perform the transaction with as it
ever had.
Springfield Register: There is
no occacion for the fear or lack of
confidence that keeps money out of
legitimate business enterprises. It
is a senseless scare that had its origin
in operations of unscrupulous manip
ulations of values in our large
large cities. It will end in time,
and if it brought disaster upon nj
one but those who were largely re
sponsible for it there would be no
occasion for regret.
Louisville Courier-Journal: A
few weeks ago gold had almost en
tirely disappeared from the customs
receipts. Now there is more gold
received at the custom houses than
there has bee» for months before,
There is an admirable index, and it
clearly shows that confidence is
stronger and that times are not as
hard as many ignorant and timid
S le have been foolishly fright-
into ’believing them. Repeal
the Sherman act and time will do
the rest.
Philadelphia Enquirer: Open up
your stockships, unlock your vaults.
Only cowards will run away at this
time. Patriotism is demanded us
much now as in •'Vfi or ’61. The
man who locks up bis mousy is as
bad as the Tory or bounty jumper.
Business cannot be carried on unless
money is allowed to circulate. Do
not get ahumed. All will bo well
if the people will lie reasonable.
This country can be ruined or saved
by the people who handle the money.
Open your stockings.
New York World: In brief, the
panic of 1893 is over, and all that is
needed for a quick and thorough re
covery is that Congress shall remove
the one chief clause of distrust with
the least possible delay. The crops
arc good and the foreign demand for
our products is large. The busiuess
of the country has stood the strain
of monetrry stringency with an extra
ordinary sturdiness which attests
soundness. All that is needed to
make prosperity sure is for Con
gress to give to the country and to
tie world a completely satisfactory
assurance tltat every dollar of Ameri
can money is to remain worth
hundred cents.

Sell Your Dolton.
The following from the Atlanta
Constitution gives some good advice
to the farmers when it says;
“Let our farmers sell tneir cotton
aaocgM) as it is ready ta market. A11
cotton gatbrted before frost will
lose twenty pounds to the bale after
it is ginned and packed if held any
length of time. The farmer loses
this when he holds his green cotton.
Sell your cotton and get your money
for it, pay your debts, if you owe
any, auu stop interest. If you store
your cotton aud pay interest on your
debts and insurance and then lose
twenty ]>onndsto thebaic, and finally
have to sell it at lesser price in April
than you can get in September, you
bound to lose a- great deal. If

Route to Chicago.
You can stop over in Cincinnati
if your ticket reads via the C. II. &
D. aud Monon Route, by depositing
same with the Merchants’ and Man
ufacturers’ Association, Chamber of
Comuiyisce Building, corner of
Fourtb aud Vins streets, one block
from Fountain Square (the O. II. &
D. ticket office in the same build
ing^ This enables you to visit tin-
picturesque “Queen City” at no ad
ditional cost, and special efforts will
be made to entertain strangers hos
pitably and reasonably.
The universal verdict of the trav
eling public is that the Pullman
Safety Vestibnled trains, running"
every day, “and Sunday too,” via
the C. H. & D. and Monon, between
Oiocinuotj, Indianapolis and Chicago
are without doubt “the finest on
earth.” These trains were especially
built by the Pullman Company for
this service, aud embrace every im
provement. Their magnificent
coaches, luxurious smoking cars,
superb sleepers, observation cars ami
unexcelled dining car service, afford
“all the comforts of home.”
Leaving Cincinnati you pass
through the beautiful Miami Valley,
and for twenty-five mUes the double
tracks run through the very front,
door yards of the finest suburban
homes in the country, ' Beyond Ham
ilton and. upto Indianapolis, the line
is noted for its scenic beauty.
A stopover a* Indianapolis, the
capital of Indiana, may be obtained
by depositing your ticket, with the
Secretary of the Commercial Club.
This city is more worthy of a visit
than almost uuy'other of its size in
the West, and offers the greatest in
ducements to traveler and tourist.
Between Indianapolis and Chicago
the line traverses the very best agri
cultural and commercial territory,
and the ride is one of unparallcd
comfort aud beauty.
Bear in mind that the C. II. &, D.
and Motion Route trains all run via
Burnside Crossing, from which {Kiint
the Illinois Central suburban trains
run direct to the World’s Fail-
Fair grounds every moment. At
Englewood connection is made with
the electric cars, which run every
five minutes to the grounds, but we
recommend all persons'to go direct
ly into the Dearbon Station, which
is located in the heart of the city
and from which all street car lines
converge, then go directly by car or
cab to your hotel or boarding place.
First locate yourself; know where
aud how you are to live while in
Chicago. Get the locality (irmly
fixed in your mind, befoyc going to
the World’s Fair by any of the nu
merous convenient ways; the cable
cars, electric roads, elevated railroad,
Illinois Central R. R., suburban
trains and the steamboats afford am
ple accommodations for all possible
visitors, and is but five minutes ride
from the business portion of the
city to the grounds. Take your
breakfrst down town, buy your lunch
at the grounds and take your supper
down town. If you follow, these
suggestions you will save money.
The facilities for serving lunch at
the World’s Fair Grounds are extra
ordinary and the prices are cheaper
than at your own home, but breakfast
and Slipper should be taken down
town, or at your boarding house.
The World’s Fair is already the
most astounding and stupendous
spectacle ever attempted by any
people, aud a day’s visit will afford
more delight and instructior than
can he possibly obtained in any other
way or by the" same expenditure of
