by many bond-holders, but not by

held certain Of its bonds. At the

recently presented ten Of these

A sCOTCHMAN'S VIEW.

Thinks It Would be . Good Thing For
the Raleigh Dispensary for the
County Commissioners to
Hire tho Legislature
to Remain.
SIN special interview today with
Manager Bachelor Of the Raleigh
Dispensary he said its sales during
the month just ended had been
$13, 900, or $4,000 more than last
January"
Mr.. Editor:
The enclosed clipping is from the
Wilmington Messenger Of the End
inst.
Do not you think it would be a
good investment for your County
Commissioners to employ our pro
hibition Legislature to remain In
Wake for the next twelve months?
1 think they could be hired very
cheap.
IA SCOTCHMAN."
In reply to our good Scotch
friend we will say, that if his sug
gestion was carried into effect ii
would doubtless prove bonanza for
the Raleigh dispensary, but it would
be very hard on the State. They
have been here only a month and
have increased the salaries Of DEM
ocratic pet ofice-holders amounting
to over $4,000 q year, not includ-
ing the large amount paid to pages
and laborers. But not one cent
have they appropriated to the edu-
cational institutions of the State or
for the poor helpless insane that
now have to be locked up in COM
mon jails. There has not been q
bill passed intended for the general
good Of the people Of the State. The
only prohibition bills they have
passed were some to drive Repubi.
cans out Of business. When the bill
was up to drive distilleries out of
Advance, Republican town, some
one tached on an amendment for
the bill to apply to Shore and Will
Hams tDemocrats). The amend
ment was voted down, but they
did not fail to put the town Of Ad-
vance out Of business. Again, we
say the Legislature Is doubtless In.
cIeasing the sales Of the Raleigh dis
pensary, but as we have the interest
Of the taxpayers Of the state ct heart,
we think they should adjourn, ct
