A GOOD MOVIE.

City Council took a step in the right
direction last night when it unani-
mously passed the bill presented by
Councilman Oberly, which, in turn, will
be presented TO the Legislature. pro-
viding that Wilmington shall receive
one-half Of the monies collected from
local liquor dealers for licenses.
The revenue CT the state derived
yearly from the issuance Of liquor IL
censes is about $4,000, and Of this
amount the resident saloon-keepers OF
this city pay $4,000. Although this
large amount Of money comes directly
from the pockets Of Wilmington hotel
and saloon men, the city does not re.
ceiye the slightest benefit from it.
Constant calls are being made upon
the treasury Of the city for money to
conduct the various branches Of mu-
nicipHl government. and this sum add
ed to the revenue derived from other
sources would greatly aid the officials
Of wilmington in giving the citizens
a better and broader government II
is not just that Wilmington should
supply over so per cent Of the revenue
derived by the state from liquor deal.

We once heard a story which We

torial situation at Dover. Many years
ago. shortly after General Grant had
been nominated for the presidency Of
the United States, and while the em-
oers Of sectional hate sln burned hotly
IN the Southland a Second Adventist
preacher was holding service in a lit
tie country church in Georgia. He
traced down the prophecies, and IN
every instance disclosed to his hear
ers that the world would come to an
end on October 81 Of tha+ year. The
faces OF an OF his auditors, with one
exception, denoted consternanon. That
exception was an old man, who, every
time that a prophecy was traced down
TO Oetober 81, shook with laughter
and seemed SO delighted that the
preacher WIS mystihed. a. the con.
clnsion OF the service and as the ap-
prehensive congregation was fling
sadly and slowly from the humble edi-
flee, the preacher called to the happy
man and said:
Il wish you TO remain, for have
something to say to YOU"
"All right, sir; am at your serwce'f
was the reply.
"Sit down here" said the preacher
'TWhile l WIS preaching noticed that
you seemed delighted every time
prophesied the end Of the world. Are
you so well prepared to die that you
can regard with such levlty the de-
struction Of the world?"

That the present force Of letter-car-

cient to meet the demands of the con-
stanty growing quantity of mail mat
ter daily arriving in Wilmington is an
established fact.
Tor some DAYS past a number of car

have been unable to make their last
delivery lf the day owing to the fact
that all Of the time their eight
hours Of service is taken up by
other deliveries.
In the rural sections N the city the
delivery service is totally inadequate
to meet the demands, though the car
riers are relieved to some extent by
the Highlands pest office, which
is Within the city limits. This
lis an unusual occurrence, as it is
a separate and distinct Office from the
Wilmington Office, and it is seldom
any city has two pest offices under
