ever, even partially, succeeded Wherever
and whenever our prohibition friends have
abandoned this system, and have gone
back to private sales and private profit,
giving the drug stores the business, there
they have failed, as in Iowa and South
Dakota, and will fail in North Dakota and
Kansas. 1t is marvellous that they are
now fighting the only law that has ever
given any chance for their kind OF prohl-
bition.
There are parts of the dispensary plan
which deserve further notice. A high
revenue from the vices Of the people must
be damning. GAINESVILLE began with SO
per cent profit on cost, and the other
dispensaries followed the figures and
method. This gain was divided between
the city and county, and in South Caro-
lima, between the state and the counties.
1t was at this weak place in the system
that the enemy attacked it. The state or
community had no right to engage in a
business for profit. 1t might handle the
liquor business as a police regulation,
but not for gain. GAINESVILLE has dropped
down to rs per cent on cost; the Athens
law states that the city does not do the
business for gain, and South Carolina has
dropped out entirely from her new laws
(she has had three all mention Of profit,
leaving that to be determined by admins
tration and not by law. Her gains for
1901 show over half million. In his re-
cent veto message the governor of Geor-
gia places his chief objection to the plan
Of drawing a revenue from the weakness
and the vices of the people. The dispen-
sary has set out to abolish private profit
from the liquor busine IS. It will yet
abandon public profit also. Its friends
have done the one. Its enemies, 1t Is to
be hoped, will drive it from the other,
and we shall yet have a law in which high
revenue from the liquor business will not
blacken our statute books or blight our
community. When liquor is handled with
out gain, either private or public, source
of great danger will be avoided.
There is one striking feature of the dis
pensary. The personal liberty right has
been the point about which the battle in
this reform has ragged most fercely. The
prohibitionists have denied that right; the
license men have allowed it, and both
have lost. The one has refused the
claim for the pound of flesh the other has
granted it.: neither is right.
If any one claims his personal liberty
his right to buy and drink his pint of
brandy, the law allows it, but he must
take it only as nominated in the bond"

But the Slovaks have no country of
their own. no self-government, no histori-
cal past. Up to the end of the eighteenth
century their language was regarded as
corrupt dialect of Bohemian fit only for
the peasants. The aristOcracy and gentry
of northern Hungary, though recruited
from the Slovak landowners, had no ma
tionality. For centuries they had at
tached themselves to the Hungarian
crown by means of the Latin language,
which was the common speech of all the
educated in the realm. Unfortunately for
the native population, the Magyar regen-
Grafton began earlier than that of the
SlaVs, for the arstocracy exchanged the
Latin for the Magyar, so that when the
national consciousness of the Slavs was
awakened at the end of the eighteenth
century, the higher classes had already
been alienated by Hungary. The country
population spoke its native dialect, but
listened to Bohemian religious instruc-
ton.

Turocz Scent Marion, Hungary, June
26. 1901.-In the coal mines and factories
Of Pennsylvania, especially at Pittsburg
and Connellsville may be found the larg-
est aggregation of Slovaks in America,
but they are commonly called Hungarians,
with whom they have nothing in common
but the country Of their birth. Much Of
the opprobrium cast upon them by Amer
leans is due mainly to their almost orien-
tai looks and ways, and to their choice of
the lowest occupations in mines and fac
tories, though their sturdiness is not de-
MED by any. Generalzations are easily
made and the public has at once decided
that all Sloyaks are Of the same cast and
belong to decidedly inferior civilization,
hardly worthy of any consideration. 1t

many that in my peregrinations through
northern Hungary, I have met Slovak uni
