THE TIKjES, IUBLISIIKI KVKItV TlIUKSDAY, BY young & gk::tham. THURSDAY JUNE THE PALMETTO STATE AND THE SALOON BUSINESS. South Carolina will go into the re tail liquor business on the 1st of July. Gov. Tillman ban just laid in a big supply of bus, juice and proposes to make for tire State increased rev enues during the next year $500,000, or $1 on every gallon of whiskey told. Nothing will be sold in pack ages of less than owe half pint. All liquors roust be of the purest quality. The price of the cheapest is $3 a gallon, 75 cents a quart and 20 cents a half pint. This will of course prove tbe most popular brand. The dispensaries are lo to be situ ated in such couDtiea as may petition for them through a majority of Us freehold voters. They will be under the servilance of the county consta ble or some officer appointed for the purpose and must be closed at 6 o'clock every evening. Applicants for the goods dispensed at thtse establishments must sign an application stating the amount and kind desired. No one will be aK lowed to sign more than one applN cation a day. The advantages claimed for this system of liquor dealing are that it will break up drinking to exctss. prevent the congregation of crowds around Ihe bar rooms, mitigate the evils of the saloon business, prevent the public disorder and troubles inci dent to intoxication. But the prin cipal thing claimed for it by Mr, Tillman is that it will increase the revenues of the State. Both the fsetbod employed and the object to oe gained appear to us very question able. The whole scheme seems more like a plan to encourage drinking for the raising of revenue rather than its suppression. Should it succeed in doing this Its promoters will doubtless point at it as a great tri umph of paternalism. To say the least, it is of doubtful economy and very questionable as to its mural effects. North Carolinian. A LONG STANDING QUESTION SETTLED. On Monday the Commissioners and Magistrates in jont session met and among the many important quep tions that come before that honorable body was whether Harnett county hould pay the Lily debt or not. The question has been before the people for twenty years and it has been vot ed down more than once by the peo ple. But by an act of the Legislature of 1891- the county commissioners were giren the right to issue bonds to tbe amount of the mdebtness of the county in fifty dollar sizes, and these bonds to draw 5 per cent, in terest for twenty years, the time that is given for payment of the debt, iuey seeing tbis was tbe most honorable w'aj' and easiest for the peo pie of the county voted to issue the bonds to the amount of $12,000, tbe principal of the debt, drawing the stated interest, and issue the balance of the amount which is near $12,000 accrued interest, not drawing any interest at all. So the question is now in shape for payment, a great cloud over the county is broke, aud some day Harnett's skies will be clear and bright. The act provided that 10 cent on the dollars worth and SO cents on the poll extra should be levied for no other purpose than paying tbis debt and interest, which was done. The interest will be paid every year and about $1,000 or more oq the principle. i The man .holding tliepe bonds wl.oj will sr 11 at the largest discount will get his money first, and so on, until all ie paid. No doubt our people will think this rxtra lax a little tough at this close time, but the county now h:ts some opening in the future and liir people we know, want to p.iy tne debts of the county which- are honest. AK though i here was no donht fraud and underhand work which brought much of this big debt on the heads of the hones: sons of the good old county of Harnett. Still if it had not been dis posed of,-some day the Legislature might have made us p.y the debt in 1 or S 3'ear9, which would, have bec more taxes than many men could have possibly paid in that time, now we have gone and disposed of it in an honest way and have 20 year to pay it off.
