' Elm street. I AGITATION STILL OK. The Dispensary Advocates Working With a Vim and Hopeful of Success. The agitation for the establishment of a dispensary in Greensboro con-t. nues unabated. The friends aad sup-porters of the measure are working zealously, and we learn that a large majority of the white voters of the city have signed the petition asking for tha dispensary. This is most encouraging ta these who have the matter in hand and is an index of popular feeling on the subject. We print the bill that will be introduced in the legislature in order that our readers may see just how it is proposed to conduct the in-stitution. In the meantime the bill has been slightly changed from the original draft in that the law will apply only to the city of Greens-boro, leaving the other sections of the county in their present relationa to the whiskey traffic. While the friends of the mevement •ava been active and energetic, those who oppose it have not been less sarn-cit in their efforts to forestall the dis-pensary law. A few extreme prohibi-tionists, those of the "whole-loaf-or-ro e" variety, oppose it upon the g ound that it is entering intoa league with the devil; that the dispensary will lend respectability to the liquor business and to liquor drinking; that U will greatly delay complete prohibl- • on, etc., etc. Others, who just now affect much veneration for "personal liberty," oppose it because they say the dispensary takes away a man's per-sonal rights by providing when he shall buy whiskey and in what quanti-ty. The old argument that it will ruin the .business of the city has also been resuscitated. In Fayetteville, a town nearly as large as Greensboro, a dispensary has been in operation sines J.ily 1st, 1897, and none of these ill effects are appar-ent. Fiye of the most prominent business men of the city (one of whom was the late lamented Capt. S. C. Rankin) have testified over their own signatures that the dispensary has helped instead of injuring business and that there was more cotton sold In Fayetteville last fall than for several years past. Mr. Q. K. Nimocks, a large manufacturer of Fayetteville, says: "The dispensary has paid 50 per cent, more to the public treasury of the town and county than was formerly received from license from twelve sa-loons. Publio morals have improved nearly in the same ratio. It has also improved business." Mr. W. H. Pow-ell, a merchant of the same place, says: "Where liquor is to be sold, the dis-pensary solves the problem. Our dis-pensary has paid more than double the revenue to the town than fourteen bars did, also double tothecounty. Drunk-enness has decreased at least ene-half, if not more. The young men have no liquor dive to loaf at after sundown." But Fayetteville is not the only town in North Carolina that has a dispen-sary. Monroe, a thrifty and progres-sive town on the southern border of tha state, has one and the people are pleas-ed with it. Mr. R. F. Beasley, editor of the Monroe Journal and treasurer ef the Monroe Board of Trade, opposed the establishment ef the dispensary because he thought the plan entirely inadequate for the accomplishment of any good. But since the institution has been tried he is heartily in favor of its continuance. Mr. Beasley tbne gives the principle ef the dispensary In a nutshell: "When the public goea into the whiskey business by estab-lishing a dispensary, it is for the pur-pose of curtailing the business, reduc-ing its evils as far as possible, and so hedging it about that it shall finally be crushed out of existence." Mr. T. W. Bickett, a leading attor-ney of Louisburg, where is also estab-lished a dispensary, says many who fought the enactment of the measure the hardest are now among its staunch-est friends. And this, we predict, will be the position of some of those wbo now oppose it in Greensboro, for their intentions are good. When the dis-pensary is established and they begin to see its advantages over the licensed saloon system, they, too, will acknowl-edge it to be the proper solution of the liquor problem—at least forthe present.

The friends aad sup-porters of the measure are working zealously, and we learn that a large majority of the white voters of the city have signed the petition asking for tha dispensary. This is most encouraging ta these who have the matter in hand and is an index of popular feeling on the subject. We print the bill that will be introduced in the legislature in order that our readers may see just how it is proposed to conduct the in-stitution. In the meantime the bill has been slightly changed from the original draft in that the law will apply only to the city of Greens-boro, leaving the other sections of the county in their present relationa to the whiskey traffic. While the friends of the mevement •ava been active and energetic, those who oppose it have not been less sarn-cit in their efforts to forestall the dis-pensary law. A few extreme prohibi-tionists, those of the "whole-loaf-or-ro e" variety, oppose it upon the g ound that it is entering intoa league with the devil; that the dispensary will lend respectability to the liquor business and to liquor drinking; that U will greatly delay complete prohibl- • on, etc., etc. Others, who just now affect much veneration for "personal liberty," oppose it because they say the dispensary takes away a man's per-sonal rights by providing when he shall buy whiskey and in what quanti-ty. The old argument that it will ruin the .business of the city has also been resuscitated. In Fayetteville, a town nearly as large as Greensboro, a dispensary has been in operation sines J.ily 1st, 1897, and none of these ill effects are appar-ent. Fiye of the most prominent business men of the city (one of whom was the late lamented Capt. S. C. Rankin) have testified over their own signatures that the dispensary has helped instead of injuring business and that there was more cotton sold In Fayetteville last fall than for several years past. Mr. Q. K. Nimocks, a large manufacturer of Fayetteville, says: "The dispensary has paid 50 per cent, more to the public treasury of the town and county than was formerly received from license from twelve sa-loons. Publio morals have improved nearly in the same ratio. It has also improved business." Mr. W. H. Pow-ell, a merchant of the same place, says: "Where liquor is to be sold, the dis-pensary solves the problem. Our dis-pensary has paid more than double the revenue to the town than fourteen bars did, also double tothecounty. Drunk-enness has decreased at least ene-half, if not more. The young men have no liquor dive to loaf at after sundown." But Fayetteville is not the only town in North Carolina that has a dispen-sary. Monroe, a thrifty and progres-sive town on the southern border of tha state, has one and the people are pleas-ed with it. Mr. R. F. Beasley, editor of the Monroe Journal and treasurer ef the Monroe Board of Trade, opposed the establishment ef the dispensary because he thought the plan entirely inadequate for the accomplishment of any good. But since the institution has been tried he is heartily in favor of its continuance. Mr. Beasley tbne gives the principle ef the dispensary In a nutshell: "When the public goea into the whiskey business by estab-lishing a dispensary, it is for the pur-pose of curtailing the business, reduc-ing its evils as far as possible, and so hedging it about that it shall finally be crushed out of existence." Mr. T. W. Bickett, a leading attor-ney of Louisburg, where is also estab-lished a dispensary, says many who fought the enactment of the measure the hardest are now among its staunch-est friends. And this, we predict, will be the position of some of those wbo now oppose it in Greensboro, for their intentions are good. When the dis-pensary is established and they begin to see its advantages over the licensed saloon system, they, too, will acknowl-edge it to be the proper solution of the liquor problem—at least forthe present.
